Walk along the Lutter river into the city center: A renovated apartment in a historic building, located in the artists' district, ready to move in.

This lovingly renovated apartment in a historic building is located in the popular artists' district in the eastern part of Bielefeld. Situated on Alsenstraße, one of the best-preserved historic streets in the city, it's close to the exposed Lutter river. The apartment was comprehensively renovated seven years ago: the electrical systems were updated, the bathroom was completely renovated and retiled, a modern gas heating system was installed for the apartment, and the small room was fitted with a suspended ceiling and dimmable lighting. Throughout the apartment (except for the kitchen and bathroom), high-quality vinyl flooring with sound insulation has been installed. Investment for maintaining value: the historic building received a completely new roof in a major project in 2025/26, costing a six-figure sum; no other major renovations are currently planned. This 4-room apartment with a balcony is located on the first floor of a multi-family building from 1912, which contains a total of eight apartments. The owners' association has been very harmonious for many years. The staircase is presented with great attention to detail, in an authentic style with stucco, mosaics on the floor, and antique chandeliers. Regarding the photos: Originally, two rooms were connected by an opening to create a large living and dining area. This layout could easily be restored, as shown in the photos. Currently, the former dining area is a cozy living room with access to a balcony, and the bedroom is located in the back. It would even be possible to create an opening in the wall to the room behind the kitchen.

For investors: The apartment is currently rented out for just under €9 per square meter. There is potential for increased rental income upon re-letting. The tenant gave notice in mid-April 2027, as they wish to move to a larger property.

Service charges: The total service charges for 2024 were €2,140 (including €914 for reserves). Of this amount, €1,007 could be charged to the tenant. The current tenant reports consuming €240 per month for gas and electricity in a two-person household. Hot water is produced via a boiler. The apartment is being sold because the owner is moving.

The apartment is located in the desirable "Artists' Quarter." Over the years, many small shops, cafes, restaurants, bakeries, art galleries, second-hand stores, and even a coffee roastery have opened here. In the weeks leading up to Christmas, the neighborhood organizes its own Christmas market, called "Lädchenglühen," where local businesses and some residents open their doors and offer special deals for residents and passersby. This charming neighborhood has a unique atmosphere, character, and a very high quality of life. The old town is less than ten minutes away on foot, a pleasant walk along the Lutter river on Ravensberger Straße. A bio-market, Rewe, and Combi supermarket are also within walking distance. Lidl and Kaufland supermarkets, ideal for larger grocery purchases, are just a two-minute drive away. The area has a high concentration of doctors, schools, and kindergartens. With a resident parking permit from the city of Bielefeld, you can park directly around the apartment without any time restrictions. Additionally, there is always the possibility to briefly stop directly in front of the building for loading and unloading. The neighborhood is crisscrossed by bicycle paths and quiet one-way streets. By car, you can quickly access the access roads to the highway or the Ostwestfalendamm. Line 4 only takes three stops to reach the main train station (HBF) and continues without transfers to the university. Whether you travel by bicycle, on foot, by train, or by car, this quiet neighborhood is well-connected.
