About this dream apartment
Property Description
This beautiful and bright attic apartment in maisonette style has been lovingly renovated in a way that you would probably only do for yourself (pay attention to the elaborate details when reading the description below, no investor would invest like this). Now this energy-efficient gem (final energy consumption of 55 kWh/m2 according to the energy certificate, class B) is waiting for new tenants who want to enjoy the view, the spacious, bright interior design and the ideal location. Directly from the owner: together you and I save over €28,000 compared to an equivalent property with an estate agent.
The view
The view is fantastic, whether from the spacious living/dining room, from the large loggia-style roof terrace, from the quiet bedroom window at the rear or from the huge Velux top-hung roof windows with external roller shutters. On the south side, especially in winter, you can watch atmospheric sunrises over the fields close to the Rhine. Nature and forest are close by, and every now and then a hawk lands on the balcony railing. The roof terrace has sun all day long, which can be regulated with variable privacy screens and electric awnings. At the back of the house, the setting sun shines into the bedroom in summer. Spectacular sunsets can be watched from the windows on the top floor.
Furnishing
This maisonette-like apartment is located on the 3rd floor of the MFH. Last floor = nobody walks past the corridor entrance. In the open, light-flooded hallway there is a practical storage room and a built-in wardrobe with extra depth consisting of three panels.
The bathroom from 2014 offers a space-saving bathtub and high-quality stoneware. Valuable details: an instantaneous water heater with an increased flow rate was installed directly on the bathtub in 2018 for quick and energy-saving filling. The designer washbasin and high tap allow you to use it without having to bend down. There is also a shower and a second toilet.
The kitchen makes perfect use of the space in a U-shape and with a gallery pull-out and carousel corner units. The huge skylight provides plenty of light, as well as warmth in winter, and can be darkened as required in summer with electric external roller shutters. The fitting is also connected to a sophisticated fresh water filter system. The extractor hood evacuates odors via a roof outlet. The small sloping roof has been retrofitted with insulation. You can serve food and drinks directly to the living/dining area via a practical serving hatch.
This forms the heart of the dream apartment. The deliberately diagonally arranged floor slats made of real wood (ash) invite you to walk barefoot even in winter. The original internal roller shutter boxes were completely removed for energy reasons, the remaining structure was sealed and electric external roller shutters were installed. The huge floor-to-ceiling window front provides a wonderful view at all times and invites you to linger on the large loggia-style roof terrace.
The loggia gives you freedom above the rooftops of Lank-Latum. The only thing above you is the blue or starry sky. To the east, you can see the Lank water tower above the rooftops. To the south are the fields of the Rhine communities. The modern stainless steel balustrade with frosted glass offers you privacy, and a side screen can also be extended to the left. Outdoor lighting, outdoor socket and water connection round off the versatile use.
The master bedroom leaves plenty of space for closets and invites you to position the bed under the cozy sloping ceiling - exactly where the last red rays fall at sunset. If you like, you can let in the birdsong from the back gardens by opening the two triple-glazed French windows (without a bar in the middle). The roller shutter boxes have already been insulated and electrified and the area behind the radiator insulated.
A door cleverly separates you from the newly renovated staircase to the pointed floor and the second room (children's room, guest room or study). The windows, roller shutter box and insulation have been extensively renovated, as in the master bedroom. The room offers sufficient space for a wardrobe, desk and bed. It also has access to a practical storage space under the stairs via another door.
The loft offers a completely separate storage and retreat area with a wonderful panoramic view from the roof windows (large energy-efficient Velux top-hung windows with electric external roller shutters from 2016). The living room-like utility room there offers an enormous amount of storage space and has been extensively insulated from the inside. The previous owner had a bedroom here (sale and rental only permitted as a utility room), for me it was a hobby room and storage space. As in the living room, the floors are made of real ash wood panels. Numerous built-in cupboards make optimum use of the sloping ceilings and offer you well-organized storage space.
Other
Energy, heating, electricity
The energy certificate (valid until May 2028) class B was issued BEFORE the refurbishment measures described here. The apartment is heated electrically by night storage, which provides efficient, cozy warmth if used cleverly and thanks to the good insulation. With the new legal possibilities for balcony/plug-in solar devices, you can now go one step further. The apartment has also been extensively converted to LED lighting. The electrics have been modernized, including suitable RCD protection. All sockets and light switches have been replaced with up-to-date and stylish Gira models.
Miscellaneous
The apartment is currently used as a shared room until 31.12.2024 at the latest. It is otherwise unlet and available from 1.1.2025 at the latest.
The apartment also has a basement storage room with a window, a parking space for a washing machine and dryer in the laundry room (also available in the attic, so you don't have to walk into the basement) and a bicycle parking space. In the surrounding area there are plenty of parking spaces on the roadside and rental garages, one of which is currently rented in the garage yard opposite (we would be happy to take it over if required).
Water, sewage, garbage, house cleaning, winter maintenance, garden maintenance, insurance, etc. are already included in the house rent.
Fair play:
Due to the large number of inquiries, I would like to conduct a fair bidding process. The apartment will go to the person who
1. appears personally nice, pragmatic and trustworthy
2. can credibly demonstrate the financing
3. submits the highest bid
When setting the price, consider how suitable the apartment is in terms of location, view/brightness, available space and your individual requirements. Ready to move into without renovations.
