The exclusive condominium spread over two floors is located in Meckenheim-Merl, about 15 km south of Bonn and approximately 7 km northeast of Rheinbach.

The property offers a calm atmosphere characterized by its proximity to nature while still having excellent connections to urban infrastructure.

Right near the apartment is a bus stop with connections to Alt-Meckenheim and Bonn Bad Godesberg. At the lower end of the new market is a bus station.

The nearby train stations Meckenheim and Industriepark Meckenheim (with routes toward Bonn and Cologne as well as Euskirchen) offer numerous “park and ride” parking spaces.

The A565 highway can be reached in about 2 km and the A61 in about 8 km, providing quick connections to the surrounding towns and regions.

The apartment is located in a popular and desirable residential area of Meckenheim in the Merl district. The immediate surroundings are very well maintained, and the infrastructure is excellent.

The Neuer Markt with its diverse shopping opportunities, restaurants, town hall, and event hall is reachable on foot within a few minutes.

For daily needs there are various supermarkets and convenience stores nearby. In addition to HIT, Lidl, Netto, and DM at the Neuer Markt, ALDI and Edeka can be found at the nearby roundabout toward Bonn. In nearby Alt-Meckenheim there are Penny, Rossmann, and further branches of ALDI and Netto.

In addition to banks, post and parcel service outlets, healthcare is well ensured by dozens of doctors and four pharmacies in the vicinity.

Educational institutions are also well represented. Kindergartens and a school center with a grammar school, secondary school, and Hauptschule can be reached on foot within a few minutes.

The extensive Kottenforst Nature Park with numerous cycling and hiking trails is just a stone’s throw away.

In addition to nature, sports enthusiasts will also find plenty to enjoy here thanks to the location. Whether it is the nearby on-foot accessible tennis court, the swimming facility in close proximity, or the golf and mini-golf courses just a few minutes away by car.

The maisonette apartment thus offers an ideal mix of tranquility, nature, and urban infrastructure, making it a perfect place to live for families and couples.
