Completely renovated attic apartment with 3 rooms, located in a prime location. // mihome Architecture & Interior Design.

This high-quality renovated apartment is located on the 3rd floor of a well-maintained apartment building with only six units. A particularly attractive feature is that two of the apartments in the building are for sale, which opens up interesting possibilities for both owner-occupiers and investors. Upon entering the apartment, you immediately notice the well-thought-out layout. The staircase leads to a compact entrance area with a hallway, a closet, and a separate storage room. The walls in the hallway are stylishly curved (please note that the angular representation in the visualization is outdated). In the bathroom, another sliding door allows simultaneous access to the bedroom and use of the shower room. The common areas are deliberately designed to be efficient, so that the living spaces benefit from a noticeable increase in space. Directly adjacent are two bedrooms arranged side by side, which are pleasantly lit by their large skylights and, despite the sloping ceilings, offer a very good sense of space. The sloping ceilings are ideal for custom-built wardrobes, allowing for particularly efficient use of the space. The property features a spacious, modern bathroom with a walk-in shower, high-quality new tiling, and completely updated plumbing. As part of the renovation, all pipes and sanitary installations were comprehensively renewed throughout the apartment. The heart of the apartment is the open-plan living, dining, and kitchen area, which is particularly appealing due to its spaciousness and thoughtful design. Continuous glazing provides ample natural light and offers a wide view of the surrounding area, extending towards Cologne. The open-plan kitchen blends harmoniously with the overall design, and the window area offers potential for an attractive built-in seating solution. The apartment has been substantially rebuilt in key areas as part of a comprehensive renovation. This includes the complete removal and replacement of the screed and insulation, new interior insulation using Multipor, new windows with triple glazing and roller shutters, new flooring, new partition walls, structural optimizations with new supports to create more spacious layouts, a completely renewed electrical system, new cable runs and connections for the kitchen and bathroom, new sanitary installations, a new underfloor heating system, new tiles, and extensive plastering and painting work. Overall, this creates an apartment that combines the charm of an attic space with the comfort and technical quality of an almost completely renovated interior.

Note: The additional insulation and triple glazing will be slightly smaller than indicated in the plans, which means the energy consumption is likely to be in energy class D.

The apartment is located in Bergisch Gladbach-Hand, a desirable and well-established residential area in the west of the city. Hand borders the districts of Paffrath and Gronau, and directly adjoins Cologne Dellbrück to the south; furthermore, the entire city of Bergisch Gladbach is situated right on the border with Cologne. This location combines a peaceful, predominantly residential environment with easy access to the metropolis, making it particularly attractive for those who want to live close to nature while still being well-connected to the city. The proximity to Cologne-Dellbrück in particular adds to the appeal of the location: residents benefit from being in the vicinity of a popular Cologne district, and thus from a more urban environment, without having to compromise on the relaxed quality of life in the Bergisches region. Dellbrück borders Bergisch Gladbach directly to the east, further emphasizing the close spatial connection. Hand and the surrounding area also offer a high level of recreational opportunities. Bergisch Gladbach positions itself as part of the Bergisches hiking region, with numerous hiking trails and themed routes. In addition to the immediate surroundings, the area boasts natural landscapes and forests, such as the Diepeschrather Forest and the wooded areas east of Dellbrück. This makes the location ideal for walks, jogs, and excursions into nature, all within easy reach. The micro-location also excels in everyday life. The areas around Hand and Paffrath have a well-established social infrastructure, with daycare centers, primary schools, and local amenities. The city of Bergisch Gladbach allocates specific capacity for daycare and after-school programs within the Hand district; furthermore, there are additional options available in the vicinity of Paffrath. For leisure and recreation, facilities such as the Paffrath swimming complex and the well-known Mediterana in Bergisch Gladbach complement the location's appeal. Both facilities exemplify the high quality of life and recreational opportunities in the surrounding area. Public transportation is also readily available: Marienburger Straße is designated as a bus stop within the current network of the Rheinisch-Bergischer Kreis. Overall, the location offers a particularly attractive combination of peaceful living, a strong sense of community, excellent local amenities, proximity to nature, and easy access to Cologne.
