Loft in Hagen - green oasis in the city center

The property boasts excellent urban infrastructure, with educational and cultural institutions, daycare centers, administrative buildings, and essential services all located nearby. Access to the house is via a driveway, leading to the fenced property. An electric sliding gate with a remote control, a separate door (with an electronic opener), and a new video intercom system control access. A covered courtyard with several parking spaces leads to the two-story house. A staircase provides access to the upper floor, which features three rooms and a daylight bathroom with a shower. It's important to note that this is not a self-contained apartment, but rather a living area accessible via two staircases. CAT7 data cabling and electrical installations for workstations or private computers have been installed here. Coaxial cable (for satellite TV) and the fiber optic connection to the house are also located there. On the ground floor, there are two additional rooms, a daylight bathroom with a bathtub, a guest toilet, as well as the heating system and the house's utility connections. Hot water is supplied centrally via a combination boiler and water storage tank. A wide staircase leads to the large, former workshop of the factory, which features large windows facing southwest. The 20kW stove is water-fed, meaning that the water heated in the combustion chamber is transferred to the heating system's water circuit, reducing gas consumption or completely replacing it. This 104 square meter living room (width*length*height = 6*18*3.30 meters) houses an open-plan kitchen. The term "loft" is perfectly applicable here. The 2.25-meter high and 1.80-meter wide windows are fitted with electric aluminum roller shutters and interior blinds. The 70cm thick brickwork provides summer heat protection on the outside and a cozy, factory-like character on the inside. Data cabling and coaxial cable (for satellite TV) are installed here. Connected to this space are two unheated, but well-usable rooms: a tiled utility room with a sink and hot water boiler, and a laundry area with floor drains, as well as a large hobby workshop and storage room with access to the garden. The garden is accessible through a naturally lit loggia with a vibrant, translucent "plant covering," a hybrid of indoor and outdoor space. The garden features fruit trees (apple, plum, cherry), evergreen bamboo, cypress trees, and a large birch tree. A private compost bin replaces the green waste collection service not provided by the city. Four 300-liter rainwater tanks can supply the garden, especially the bamboo, with water for 6-8 weeks without the need for tap water. A permeable shade sail protects the lawn during periods of intense heat. Three additional rooms, in their original charming condition with exposed ceiling beams, offer 80 square meters of space for bicycles, fitness equipment, a workshop, gardening tools, table tennis, old furniture, an archive, a studio, or other purposes – essentially, substitute basement spaces, but without stairs. The 500 square meter roof area, which is almost completely free of shade, offers potential for economic use of solar panels.
