Bright and sunny 3.5-room apartment with a south-facing balcony, located in the heart of Hamburg.

For sale is an exceptionally bright and spacious 3.5-room apartment with approximately 79 square meters of living space, located on the second floor of a well-maintained apartment building at Birkenau 18. Its unique layout and expansive views create an open and comfortable living atmosphere. The apartment is ideal for couples, but also offers versatile possibilities for families or individuals who need extra space. The heart of the apartment is the bright and airy living and dining area, with a total area of approximately 37 square meters. A large opening connects the living and dining areas. If desired, the original layout can be restored, transforming the 3.5-room apartment into a four-room apartment. A large window and its southwest orientation provide plenty of natural light throughout the day and into the evening. From the living room, you can access the southwest-facing balcony, which is currently being renovated. The view extends over the green and well-maintained residential complex to the St. Gertrud church. During the winter months, the view opens up to the Kuhmühlenteich lake. On the other side, there is a large green space with a park and playground. Behind this, the Mundsburg towers create an urban accent and, particularly in the evening, add a charming big-city feel to the view. Despite its central location, the apartment offers a very quiet living environment, free from any disruptive commercial activity in the immediate vicinity. In addition to the spacious living area, the apartment has two bedrooms. The larger bedroom, located in a quiet area, is approximately 17 m² and offers ample space for a double bed, a large wardrobe, and other furniture. The smaller room can be flexibly used as a children's room, study, guest room, or dressing room. This allows the apartment to easily adapt to different life stages and needs. The separate kitchen, approximately 7 m², has a large window. It also contains the connection for a washing machine. An older built-in kitchen is currently in place, but the room offers significant potential for individual redesign. The bathroom, which has a window and a bathtub, is also well-lit. The kitchen and bathroom are functional and offer buyers the opportunity to realize their own ideas. Throughout the living and sleeping areas, there is a beautiful parquet floor that adds warmth and character to the apartment. The kitchen and bathroom are tiled. The slightly above-average ceiling height, large windows, and views of greenery enhance the bright and inviting atmosphere. The apartment is heated by district heating, and there is an intercom system. The apartment includes a private storage room in the basement, as well as a lockable storage area in the attic. In addition, the residents of the building have access to a bicycle room in the building, a separate bicycle shed, a drying room in the attic, and a communal room in the basement. The apartment is very well-maintained and immediately habitable. A modernization before the sale was deliberately avoided so that the new owners can design the kitchen, bathroom, and other details according to their own preferences. It is currently used by the owner and can be handed over immediately, subject to agreement. The sale is commission-free and directly from the owner. The renovation of the balconies in the residential complex is scheduled to be completed in August.

The apartment is located on a quiet side street in the popular Uhlenhorst district of Hamburg. Its location, with its green courtyard, combines a high level of tranquility with an exceptionally central and urban environment. Just a few minutes from the subway, the Alster lake, and the Hamburg city center, this location offers a rare combination of convenient infrastructure, short distances, and high quality of life. The street is designated as a 30 km/h zone, and ample public parking is available in front of the building. A hvv-switch point for rental cars, as well as public electric charging stations, complement the mobility options. The current redesign of Lerchenfeld street, including a new bike path, will further improve the cycling infrastructure in the area. Public transportation links are excellent.

Cafés like Café Goldherz, restaurants, a rooftop bar, various service providers, and a small weekly market in Immenhof create a vibrant yet pleasant neighborhood atmosphere. The weekly market takes place on Tuesday afternoons and Friday mornings. Despite its central location, the residential area is characterized by plenty of greenery and water.
