First occupancy after renovation, Altenbochum. 3.5 rooms, balcony, bathtub, parquet flooring, and painting completed.

3.5-room apartment on the 1st floor of a quiet 8-unit apartment building, currently occupied exclusively by households of 1-2 people, making the community very peaceful. The building features a thermal insulation facade on all exterior walls, new, triple-glazed plastic windows with insulated glass in all rooms, and enhanced security features, including special handles and mushroom-head fittings that meet RC 2 security standards. These triple-glazed windows contribute to further energy savings, and the building's energy-efficient measures are state-of-the-art in this area. A new, energy-saving gas condensing boiler with central hot water supply has also been installed in the building. Hot water consumption is metered separately in each apartment, ensuring that residents only pay for what they use. There are no energy-intensive appliances such as instant water heaters or under-counter refrigerators. Therefore, the cost of hot water is included in the heating costs. The condensing boiler is a new technology designed to further reduce gas consumption. Last year, the entrance door system, including the intercom for each apartment, and the courtyard exit doors were also replaced with modern, energy-efficient door components. Due to the numerous energy-saving measures recently implemented, the current energy performance certificate is no longer accurate. It was issued before the heating system was upgraded, before the triple-glazed windows were installed, and before the entrance and courtyard doors were replaced. The values have since improved significantly, thanks to these extensive energy-efficient renovations.

Kreuzkamp is a very quiet residential street that begins at the Evangelical University of Applied Sciences on Immanuel-Kant-Straße and ends at Freigrafendamm (near the main cemetery). Within a 2-minute walk between houses 22 and 24 is Wittener Straße, which offers bus and train connections, as well as shops for daily necessities, including bakeries and butchers. From here, buses and trains run every 10 minutes to the city center of Bochum (travel time approximately 10 minutes). Bochum Central Station offers excellent subway connections to Bochum University. By car, you can reach the Bochum interchange, with its highway connections to the A 43, A 42, and A 40 in various directions, in just 5 minutes. Kreuzkamp is characterized by numerous green front gardens and has corresponding garden areas between the houses; it is a purely residential street, therefore green, quiet, and centrally located. Large public green spaces easily accessible on foot provide opportunities for walking or jogging around Kreuzkamp. This is a very popular part of Altenbochum, where people enjoy living, especially because from the balcony you can see the adjacent urban green spaces, and there are no further buildings blocking the view.
