About this apartment

The six-room apartment with a living area of approx. 140 m² is located in a sought-after area of Leverkusen.
It is a multi-family house with three units (all owner-occupied), one of which has its own separate entrance.
The apartment occupies the entire ground floor of the house. Due to the house’s hillside location, the entrance door and the rooms on the west side are on the ground floor, while on the east side they are on the second upper floor.
From the east side, there is a wonderful view of the small Silbersee lake amid greenery.
The apartment is accessible via the communal staircase and impresses with its distinctive layout.
The entrance door opens into the large, very bright dining room, which features a large built-in wardrobe. Thanks to its depth, it is a true space-saving wonder.
Directly adjacent is the bright, inviting kitchen.
The highlight is the approx. 31 m², light-filled living room with access to the 12 m² balcony. It has a glass roof and side windows. The entire front is fitted with insect screens.
From here, there is a wonderful view of the small Silbersee lake, a magnificent natural paradise in the middle of the city.
The balcony offers a sheltered outdoor space, whether for breakfast in the sun, sociable evenings or relaxation.
The magnificent view of nature can also be enjoyed from the bright bedroom.
The apartment also has a very large, versatile room with an adjoining smaller multifunctional room.
The apartment is equipped with both a modern shower room and a bathroom with a bathtub.
The Smart Home equipment (Home Assistant and Homematic / Homematic IP), the smart underfloor-heating thermostats with hydraulic balancing, and the Nuki Pro Smart Lock on the apartment door are particularly practical. The residential ventilation units are also controlled and can, for example, be set to a desired humidity level.
A small balcony PV system was installed on the outside of the balcony to generate electricity, approx. 1.6 kWp with Hoymiles inverters.
A spacious cellar room and a wooden shed belonging to the apartment provide plenty of storage space. The wooden shed was approved as a bicycle and motorcycle carport and originally housed a motorcycle.
There is also a communal drying room and storage space in the attic.
The two belonging to the apartment are particularly attractiveThe associated parking spaces directly in front of the house.

A major special feature of this property is its versatility.
On the one hand, walls can be moved, removed or newly erected in order to rearrange rooms if necessary. There are no limits to your imagination here.
A major advantage, however, is the possibility of dividing the apartment back into two independent units. Legally, these are two apartments that were merely structurally combined into one large apartment. As a result, there are two bathrooms and two apartment doors. In addition to the existing kitchen, there is also another room with all the connections required to install a kitchen here as well.
To divide the apartment, only one opening would need to be closed. This currently connects the two apartments of approx. 92 m² and approx. 46 m².
The use of the resulting two apartments allows for a wide range of possibilities.
They can, for example, be used as multigenerational housing, as a practice with an adjoining apartment, or one residential unit can be rented out.
The possibility of dividing the apartment offers plenty of scope for your own ideas.

In total, you receive an apartment that offers a wide range of possible uses and, despite its central location, remains closely connected to nature.
