Attention: Price reduction! Plenty of space for you, your family, and the Frog Prince

The property

Located in an upscale neighborhood, this lovely house—which appears pleasantly understated from the outside—features charming wooden lattice windows, classic shutters, and a green, very inviting front yard. At first glance, it seems almost modest. Inside, however, a surprising sense of spaciousness unfolds: approximately 320 m² of living space offers an exceptional amount of room, currently tailored to a comfortable two-person household but equally well-suited for a family with children.

Even the large entryway conveys a sense of spaciousness and clear orientation. From here, the ground-floor rooms open up in a very pleasant way. To the left is what is now the office, which was formerly used as a dining room. The large window extending outward is particularly beautiful here. Opposite are the guest restroom and the kitchen. From the kitchen, you can access the terrace on one side and descend to the basement on the other.

But first, the path continues straight ahead. Through a spacious hallway, you reach the addition that forms the heart of the house: a light-filled living area with a fireplace, underfloor heating, and glass panels that can be retracted into the floor. Here, the interior and exterior blend together beautifully. The view opens up to the beautifully landscaped garden, bordered by mature trees and rhododendron bushes that burst with color in the spring. The lovingly designed swimming pond fits naturally into this green setting. The Frog King watches over it—a small detail you’ll never forget.

An open staircase leads to the attic and further up to the loft. The attic features a bathroom with natural light, a floor-level shower, and a tub; the large bedroom with access to the sunroom; a hallway with built-in closets; and two separate walk-in closets, also with access to the sunroom.

This sunroom was originally planned as a rooftop terrace and was later redesigned with sliding glass panels to create a sheltered, bright favorite spot. From here, you can look down into the garden and far out into the distance toward the southern part of Essen. It’s a place for your first cup of coffee in the morning, for quiet reading hours, or for a peaceful moment in the evening. A staircase on the side leads directly from the sunroom down to the terrace.

The attic is purely usable space, but ideas quickly spring to mind here as well. Whether as a hobby area, a playroom for the little ones, or a storage room for items not needed daily—many possibilities are conceivable here.

The garden level, accessible both from the kitchen and from outside, has a lot to offer. In addition to utility connections, heating, and a bathroom with a shower, there is a wellness area featuring a hot tub, sauna, and shower. Added to this are several rooms of considerable size that can be used in a variety of ways: a home theater, fitness area, hobby room, bar, party room, guest apartment with direct access to the garden, or a little world of its own for your children—spacious, private, and yet with direct access to the outdoors. This garden level opens up possibilities that go far beyond those of a traditional basement.

From the garden, you can access the garage as well as other rooms that provide practical storage space. An additional shower is also available here.

The property spans approximately 1,075 m² and offers space, tranquility, and inspiration. Here, you can follow in the artist’s footsteps, experience the garden, linger among the mature greenery, and discover new perspectives time and again. The charming wooden lattice windows are found throughout the house, giving it a unified, warm character. Wood is the defining element—visible, tangible, and central to the home’s cozy atmosphere.

This house is one of those properties that doesn’t loudly proclaim its spaciousness to the outside world. You have to step inside, look around, let your gaze wander into the garden, and let the many possibilities sink in. At the very latest when the windows in the living area seem to sink into the floor, the fireplace is crackling, and the swimming pond outside is bathed in the evening light, you’ll understand the special charm of this place.
