About this apartment

This rented four-room condominium offers investors the opportunity to take over an existing tenancy in a sought-after residential area of Bad Homburg. The family-friendly layout, four separately accessible rooms and the balcony provide a good basis for sustainable rental potential.

The electrical distribution system has already been modernized once.

According to the available floor plan, the apartment has approximately 76 m² of living space. The centerpiece is the approximately 20.6 m² living room with several window areas and direct access to the balcony. The view characterized by mature trees and an existing awning enhance the quality of living.

In addition to the approximately 14 m² bedroom, there are two further rooms measuring approximately 11.3 m² and 7.3 m². These can be used as children's, work or guest rooms. This makes the apartment appealing not only to families, but also to couples requiring additional space and households needing a home office.

The separate kitchen has its own window. The accommodation is complemented by a bathroom with natural light and a bathtub, as well as a separate toilet. This separation is a practical advantage, particularly when renting to families and multi-person households. The central hallway provides separate access to all rooms and offers additional options for placing furniture and storage.

The fittings are predominantly of an older standard. The current condition is generally usable under the existing tenancy, but offers interesting modernization and value appreciation potential upon a future re-letting or change of tenant. In particular, the sanitary facilities, floor and wall coverings, as well as individual fixtures, can be updated to contemporary standards in the future. This would allow the apartment to be further developed both visually and in terms of its market position over the long term.

For investors, the property thus combines several key features: an existing tenancy, a well-utilized four-room layout, a balcony, a family-friendly division and long-term design options. The good infrastructure of the Kirdorf district, with schools, childcare facilities, shopping options, recreational areas and connections to Bad Homburg city center, further supports sustainable rental potential.

Net rent: €652.85 per month - 7834.20 p.a.

The location combines a family-friendly residential environment with short distances to schools, childcare facilities, shopping opportunities and a wide range of leisure activities.

The good range of educational and childcare facilities in the district is particularly practical for families. Ketteler-Francke School, a primary school, is located in Kirdorf; the comprehensive school at Gluckenstein is also quickly accessible. In addition, there are several daycare centers, a nursery, and school childcare services. Playgrounds and soccer fields, as well as the Kirdorf/Eichenstahl district and family center, complement the family-oriented infrastructure.

S-Bahn line S5 connects Bad Homburg directly with Oberursel and Frankfurt am Main.
