Property description

A condominium in the attic storey of a multi-family building complex comprising three houses from 1953 in a simple residential location of Gelsenkirchen-Bulmke-Hüllen, about 4.2 km from the city centre. The flat with around 43 m² of living space is located in the attic storey, right, and comprises two rooms, a kitchen-living room, hallway and bathroom, supplemented by a cellar room. The flat is owner-occupied and can be moved into immediately after the auction award.

The multi-family building consists of five residential units per building. Flat No. 15 is currently vacant. The building has a full basement and is two-storey with a partially converted attic. The flat also includes access to a non-converted dry loft (approx. 50 m²) and to the ridge loft, which could be converted at a later date.

The structural condition is satisfactory to moderate with a considerable maintenance backlog, in particular in the common property. The heating system was renewed in 2005, windows partially around 2010. The façade and electrical installation still date from the year of construction. Refurbishment of the roof, façade and building services is due; special levies to top up the maintenance reserve are to be expected.

Official property description

The court’s wording

Laut Wertgutachten handelt es sich um ein Wohnungseigentumsrecht (Nr. 15 des Aufteilungsplans) im Dachgeschoss samt Spitzboden und Kellerraum im Hause Gotenstr. 22 (Wohnungseigentumsanlage bestehend aus drei aneinandergebauten Mehrfamilienhäusern Gotenstr. 18, 20 und 22 - jeweils 5 Wohneinheiten), Baujahr 1953 (gemäß Bauakte), ca. 43,25 m² Wfl..

Die Raumaufteilung bzw. der Ausbau des Dachgeschosses stimmen in der Örtlichkeit anscheinend nicht mit den im Aufteilungsplan vorhandenen Grundrissen überein.

Es ist ein bauordnungsrechtliches Verfahren anhängig.

Eine Innenbesichtigung der Wohnung wurde dem Sachverständigen nicht ermöglicht.

Die Einsichtnahme des Gutachtens nebst allen Anlagen wird dringend angeraten!

English translation

According to the valuation report, this concerns a condominium ownership right (No. 15 of the partition plan) in the attic storey including ridge loft and cellar room in the building Gotenstr. 22 (condominium complex comprising three adjoining multi-family buildings Gotenstr. 18, 20 and 22, each with 5 residential units), year of construction 1953 (according to the building file), approx. 43.25 m² living area.

The room layout and/or the conversion of the attic storey apparently do not correspond on site to the floor plans in the partition plan.

Building-law proceedings are pending.

An internal inspection of the flat was not made possible for the expert.

Inspection of the report along with all annexes is urgently recommended!
