The property

This charming small apartment building, built in 1969, is located in a sought-after area of central Ratingen. The property is situated on a quiet street with very little through traffic. The well-maintained exterior facade, the new building entrance, the renovated roof, and the new windows immediately convey the excellent condition of the entire building.

The approximately 82 m² move-in ready unit on the first floor, which is currently for sale, has been partially renovated and modernized to a high standard according to the current owners’ personal needs—details can be found in the property description under “Features.” The living and dining area with an open kitchen is very bright, yet also pleasant and cozy. This spacious heart of the apartment makes everyday life easier and creates the ideal setting for parties, cooking evenings with friends, or simply daily life for two or three people. The entire apartment features a well-thought-out floor plan. The spacious entryway offers ample room for a coat rack and storage. A practical built-in closet is also available.

The two bedrooms facing the garden offer comfortable retreats—one of which is also ideally suited as an office, guest room, or children’s room. The daylight-filled bathroom with a walk-in shower meets the latest design standards and was renovated in 2017 with high-quality fixtures. The separate toilet was renovated in the 1990s.

The lovingly maintained and beautifully landscaped communal garden offers additional space to read a book in peace, host summer parties, or wind down the day with a glass of wine.

The basement also features a shared bicycle storage room, a laundry room, and a drying room. The approximately 5 m² basement storage unit belonging to the apartment rounds out the offering.

You will become part of a financially sound homeowners’ association that places great value on the maintenance, preservation of value, and modernization of the common property. The apartment is heated by a gas condensing boiler installed in 2020. Hot water is provided by an electric instantaneous water heater. The monthly maintenance fee of €297 includes not only the usual utilities but also heating costs and the maintenance reserve fund.

Please note that the parking space listed is a special right of use for a car parking space in the front yard of the building. If needed, the buyer must create this space at their own expense; additionally, a building permit must be obtained from the Building Authority of the City of Ratingen. There is no elevator in the building.

location

Ratingen is located on the edge of the Rhineland and borders the state capital, Düsseldorf, to the west and south. Düsseldorf is about a 10-minute drive away via the A52 highway. The city of Essen is also just a few minutes’ drive away. The Ratingen-Ost interchange also offers quick connections, for example toward Oberhausen.

Public transportation is also exceptionally well-developed: the S-Bahn from Ratingen-Ost takes you to Essen or Düsseldorf in about 30 minutes; Cologne is reachable in about an hour. The Ratingen-Mitte bus station, with a connection to the U72 tram line, is within walking distance of the apartment and provides numerous additional connections throughout the city and beyond.

The center of Ratingen, with its historic old town, forms the heart of the city. Whether it’s the old city wall, the Trinsenturm, the Kornsturm, or the numerous listed half-timbered houses—Ratingen captivates with its medieval ambiance. In addition, the city center offers a wide range of recreational activities as well as a diverse array of shopping options—from everyday essentials to exclusive boutiques.

The weekly market in the city center offers fresh food, most of which comes from regional producers. The diverse school system and medical care are also—as is typical for a vibrant city—excellently developed.

Culturally, Ratingen-Mitte also has a lot to offer: in addition to a movie theater, museums, the city library, and the municipal theater, numerous restaurants, bars, and pubs invite you to linger and enjoy a night out.
