Well-maintained, well-designed 4-room apartment with solar panels, a large balcony, garden, and garage, located in Erftstadt-K.
50374 Erftstadt (Kierdorf) – Nordrhein-WestfalenThis charming 4-room ground-floor apartment, located in a well-maintained two-unit house (condominium) built in 1973, features an exclusive solar panel system with a capacity of 11.7 kWp (with a top energy rating of 77.17 kWh / energy efficiency class C), a large balcony, 150 m² of private garden for exclusive use, 1 garage with 3 outdoor parking spaces and 1 indoor parking space, and a spacious basement area. With approximately 119 m² of living space, the apartment is well-designed and ideal for families with 1-2 children or couples who need extra space, and it is available immediately – suitable for personal use or rental. The property, located in a good, quiet residential area in Erftstadt-Kierdorf, is very conveniently located and boasts not only a well-thought-out layout but also a bright, spacious living/dining area of approximately 35 m² with direct access to the almost 8-meter-long "sun balcony," as well as a kitchen of approximately 12 m². From the spacious entrance hall, you can access the bedroom (approximately 16.9 m²), as well as two children's/office/guest rooms (approximately 10.3 m² and 13.3 m²), the daylight bathroom with a comfortable quarter-circle shower and a spacious whirlpool corner bathtub, and a separate guest toilet. Thanks to the protected "sandwich" construction in the building, nestled between the basement ceiling and the heated top floor, the heat remains inside the rooms in winter, and in summer, the apartment is pleasantly cool. From the balcony, you have direct access to your "private green oasis," where you will find a private garden of approximately 150 m² for your exclusive use. The spacious balcony, completely renovated in 2009, is almost 8 meters long and 2 meters deep. It features anthracite-colored tiles, a sun awning approximately 4 meters wide, and the option to keep it open or closed using a "fold-away door." It invites you to relax and soak up the sun, and also offers a sheltered spot even on windy or rainy days. A staircase with Kambala wood steps leads to the manageable, low-maintenance garden, which includes a terrace of approximately 20 m² and a sustainable 5000-liter rainwater cistern located underneath. This cistern also has a positive impact on the annual water bill for the apartment. The heating system in this property is a "modern" thermal storage heating system, which allows you to be independent of fossil fuels, thanks to the photovoltaic system on the roof, which faces southwest. What might initially appear as a "negative" aspect due to the need for modernization can actually be a "financial advantage," as the 11.7 kWp photovoltaic system, which was commissioned in November 2009 and is exclusively connected to the homeowners' association (HOA), guarantees a state-guaranteed feed-in tariff of €0.43/kWh until November 2029, and – calculated from 2027 – will generate approximately €14,500 over a period of 35 months. The property also includes a rare "parking package" – in addition to a solid garage equipped with two roller doors, there is an adjacent, covered parking space (e.g., for bicycles or other items), as well as three additional outdoor parking spaces in front, guaranteeing hassle-free parking without the need to search for a spot. The space is further complemented by three private basement rooms for storage, a workshop, hobbies, and a spacious laundry room in the basement, complete with platforms for a washing machine and dryer. An energy performance certificate for the property is available. The homeowners' association fees for 2026 are approximately €260 per month per unit. Please understand that, for reasons of privacy, we are not publishing any photos of the apartment here. If you have any questions about the property, please do not hesitate to contact us. If you are seriously interested, we will gladly send you more information and photos (a detailed brochure) immediately, provided you give us your contact details.

Information on equipment
Note on Storage Heater Systems:
At first glance, so-called "storage heaters" (electric heaters) are often viewed negatively and perceived as a disadvantage. This is often based on past experiences that are no longer entirely relevant to the current situation. The conditions for energy supply are changing fundamentally. Focusing on "electricity" as an energy source aligns with current political and technological developments, and "electric heating" offers several advantages:
"Future-proof and self-sufficient: Flexible heating without fossil fuels and without expensive maintenance contracts!"
- NO dependence on oil and gas - neither a gas connection nor (space for) an oil tank is required in the apartment building; this makes the building independent of the immediate price fluctuations of fossil fuels. - The energy transition is increasingly focused on electricity.
- Simple technology, no maintenance costs - it is technically straightforward, and does not require a boiler, burner, pumps, gas boiler, or chimney, which means less maintenance and reduces the risk of repairs to a conventional heating system (repairs to central pipes). Low investment costs
Replacing or upgrading individual radiators is cost-effective. No mandatory renovation required.
The infamous "ban on night storage heaters" was long ago abolished in the German Energy Conservation Act (GEG)! There is NO legal requirement to replace functioning "night storage heater" systems! - Photovoltaics opens up additional possibilities, and in combination with self-generated electricity (PV), a portion of the required electricity can be produced on-site. Battery storage and intelligent controls can further increase self-consumption, making this system potentially economically attractive. What might initially seem like a disadvantage can, in the long term, develop into a very interesting aspect of the property. Furthermore, the actual consumption is more important than the label "electric heating." Ultimately, it should not be solely the type of heating system that is decisive (and potentially discouraging), but rather the specific energy needs of the apartment, the individual heating behavior/heat requirements, and the "lowest electricity price" offered by the freely selectable energy provider. The storage heater was installed in 1998 and is asbestos-free. A general ban on the production and use of asbestos in building products came into effect on October 31, 1993.
FUTURE PROSPECTS:
After the guaranteed feed-in tariff expires at the end of 2029, the photovoltaic system can ideally be equipped with a modern battery storage system. Combined with a modern heating solution (e.g., modern infrared heaters/radiators or split-system heat pumps), this property could be transformed into a highly self-sufficient and extremely cost-effective energy-saving property. The groundwork for the future is already in place!
NOTE regarding the photovoltaic system:
The photovoltaic system is not permanently attached to the roof (so-called "on-roof" system - in this case, the PV modules are mounted on the roof using a supporting structure and can be removed again without damaging the building structure). Therefore, it is not taken into account when calculating the property transfer tax, and thus the ancillary purchase costs! Legally, it is considered a "movable asset" and does not count as taxable real estate.
Location
The condominium is located in a popular area in Erftstadt, a natural, lively, liveable town on the Erft with around 52,500 inhabitants and a high quality of living as well as attractive leisure facilities in the immediate vicinity - just outside the city of Cologne - in a quiet residential area, but still centrally located.
There are good public transport connections in the immediate vicinity of the property, with bus routes 955 and 977 to the Erftstadt-Liblar and Kerpen-Horrem train stations, which, together with the quick access to highways 1 and 61, ensure fast travel to Cologne, Brühl, Bonn, Aachen, etc.
Erftstadt's proximity to Cologne and the Ville lakes, its location right next to the Rhineland Nature Park offer good accessibility, peace and relaxation and a number of sights worth seeing, as well as a wide range of attractive sports, club and leisure activities for all age groups.
The Eifel is also not too far away from Erftstadt.
The municipalities of Brühl, Hürth, Kerpen, Nörvenich, Weilerswist and Zülpich are located next door to Erftstadt.
Within walking distance in Kierdorf there are restaurants, doctors and a pharmacy, kindergartens, an elementary school, a post office and an outdoor swimming pool as well as supermarkets and cafés, which are not too far away in the neighboring villages of Kerpen-Brüggen and Erftstadt-Köttingen and can also be reached quickly by bike.
Other numerous, varied shopping facilities for daily needs (supermarkets, drugstores, DIY stores), cafés, restaurants and various educational facilities - such as secondary schools and a music school - can be reached in the two largest districts of Erftstadt, in Liblar and Lechenich, where the city administration is also located, in a few minutes by car/bus or by bicycle.
The modern Marien-Hospital, which is around 4.5 km away and can be reached in around 8 minutes by car, also provides comprehensive healthcare close to home.

Miscellaneous
The apartment features a highly reliable KNX building management system, which offers numerous convenience features throughout the apartment, basement, garage, and outdoor areas – such as controlling the electric blinds in all rooms (except the bathroom and toilet), access via fingerprint recognition, control of the balcony/garden lighting and awning. The apartment can be taken over immediately and, after a "standard renovation" (in the sense of cosmetic repairs such as wall and floor finishes), it should be quickly ready for occupancy with new wallpaper and, if necessary, new flooring. A fireplace (with a maximum output of 4 kW, which is reportedly sufficient according to the local fire marshal) with a stainless steel chimney can be installed ("The decision to allow this has already been made by the homeowners' association!") and would, during the transitional seasons or on "cold winter days," not only provide additional comfort and cozy warmth in the living room, but also reduce the load on the electric heating system. This property does not include a fitted kitchen, which means the new owners have the freedom to design the kitchen to their own taste and preferences. There are 5 separate satellite connections available, which can be expanded, as well as numerous LAN connections in the living area and basement. This apartment offers a generous 119 square meters of living space, providing plenty of room and opportunities for the whole family, couples, and individuals who appreciate the amenities and comfort of the apartment and its surroundings, such as the basement, garage, balcony, garden/terrace, and the quiet yet central location. The purchase price of €349,607, or the price per square meter at €2,938, is within the attractive average market price for Erftstadt (as of September 2026, according to IMMOPORTAL) and includes a valuation based on the basic value of the apartment, which is the average price per square meter of €2,753 (as of September 1, 2026) for apartments in Erftstadt-Kierdorf, multiplied by 119 square meters of living space, totaling over €327,607, plus the basic value of the land – €22,000 – for the "very rare" parking space and garden. In addition, the price includes €7,500 for the photovoltaic system. We kindly request that you refrain from contacting us with any inquiries from real estate agents.
