About this apartment

This charming 2-room apartment is located on the ground floor of a small, well-maintained apartment building directly on Bremen’s ramparts and offers a sense of living that one hardly expects in the middle of the city. From the windows, the view falls on the greenery of the historic ramparts, and yet the pedestrian zone, the Schlachte and the main railway station are only a few minutes’ walk away. It is hard to live anywhere in Bremen that is more urban and at the same time greener. The apartment was renovated in 2026 and is available for immediate occupancy. It therefore offers maximum flexibility: whether as an investment in a sought-after city-center location or as a home of one’s own for people who appreciate city life, this property allows both options equally.

Across around 44 m² of living space are a living room and a separate bedroom, a private kitchen, a shower bathroom and a hallway. The bedroom faces the rampart and is fitted with soundproof windows. The apartment was already completely refurbished in 2002: all electrical wiring, switches and sockets as well as the fuse box were renewed, as were the heating pipes and radiators. The bathroom was fully renovated in 2018. Heating and hot water are provided by a modern gas boiler that was newly installed at the end of 2023. Billing is directly with the utility provider, so only actual consumption is ever paid for.

During the 2026 renovation, the walls were freshly painted and new floor coverings were laid: laminate in the living room, bedroom and hallway, vinyl in the kitchen. A storage room within the apartment offers practical storage space and a washing-machine connection. In addition, the apartment includes its own cellar room, also with a washing-machine connection and with its own exit onto Abbentorswallstraße, ideal for bicycles.

This apartment is more than just a property. It is a home with a view of the greenery, in the very heart of Bremen, and at the same time a compelling investment in one of the city’s most sought-after locations.
