Property description

Multi-family residential and commercial building in Berlin-Kreuzberg, at the corner of Urbanstraße and Baerwaldstraße, in a medium residential location with very good local area supply and proximity to the Landwehrkanal. The 4-storey building with unconverted attic and full cellar was erected around 1880 and, after war destruction, rebuilt in the 1960s with a new facade and roof.

The house has 8 rental units with a living and usable area of 552.70 m², of which currently only 4 units are let. The monthly net cold rent (Nettokaltmiete) of the let units totals around 1,490.43 €, whereby the rent amount for one flat is not known.

The property is in poor structural condition with damp damage to the facade and cellar walls, damaged wooden windows and outdated stove heating in several flats. Due to the considerable modernisation need, buyers have significant value-enhancement potential after refurbishment.
