Spacious Townhouse Needing Renovation In A Central Location

For sale is a spacious single- or multi-family house from 1905 in a central location in Frechen. The property combines historic charm with versatile potential uses and offers a total of nine rooms on approx. 269 m² of living space. The plot comprises approx. 282 m². The house is ideal for a large family, for use as a multi-generation home, or alternatively as a multi-family house with separate residential units. The generous room layout, combined with the characteristic high ceilings of a turn-of-the-century house, gives the property a special atmosphere and provides an excellent basis for a stylish modernization. The property is partially basemented, providing additional storage and utility space. In addition to the ten rooms, there are two daylight bathrooms and a guest WC. An extension built in 2006, formerly used as a bakery, significantly expands the usable area and opens up a wide range of design and usage options—whether as a studio, hobby area, office unit, or additional living space (subject to building-law review). Above the former bakery are three additional rooms; there is also the possibility of adding another storey. The property is in need of modernization, but offers enormous potential for owner-occupiers with vision or investors with foresight. It is particularly noteworthy that the property is not listed as a protected monument. This allows flexible planning and implementation of refurbishment and conversion measures. Modernizations have already been carried out in some areas: the electrical system has been renewed, as have the water lines in the bathrooms, the kitchen, and the guest WC. The house is heated via a gas central heating system with a condensing boiler from 2012. The fixtures include various floor coverings such as parquet, tiles, and laminate in the attic. A like-new stairlift also provides additional comfort and improved accessibility within the house. Overall, this property offers a rare opportunity to modernize and enhance a charming house with history in a central location in Frechen according to your own ideas for the long term.
