Property description

Listed detached house dating from 1808 in the southern part of Elmshausen on Nibelungenstraße, a classified federal road (Bundesstraße) with heavy through traffic. The single-storey building with basement and unconverted attic stands on an irregularly shaped plot totalling 1,030 m² and is complemented by several outbuildings: a residential extension from around 1980, a barn with stable (c. 1900), a hall (c. 1950), a two-storey side building (1998) and a shed (c. 2000).

The ground floor of the detached house offers a hallway, kitchen and three rooms; the basement is partly converted with a room, kitchen area, hallway with stairs and boiler room. The attic is an unused loft. The building has been partially modernised (windows, house entrance, façade, interior fit-out), has gas heating with panel and finned radiators as well as an average standard of fitting with a mid-quality fitted kitchen. The property has been unoccupied since 2018; the barn is used for storage purposes, and the shell of the residential building is unfinished and unusable.

The building fabric is intact but shows moderate maintenance backlog: refurbishment needed in the basement with signs of damp on the exterior wall, missing insulation of the top floor ceiling and the basement ceiling, as well as the age of the boiler. For the buyer, the potential lies in the striking listed location and the possibility of making the building usable again through targeted modernisation.
