Quiet ground floor apartment with garden and garage

This house has remarkably preserved much of what was once taken for granted over the years – and perhaps that is precisely why it feels so familiar from the very first moment.

This bungalow in Oberlisse was built in the late 70s, classically in brick, with around 81 m² of living space on one level, a full basement and in an absolutely quiet location. The surroundings are pleasant too: The neighbourhood is considered exceptionally friendly – people know one another, get along well and are nevertheless allowed to close their front doors behind them.

A few steps lead from the street through the small front garden up to the entrance, and the spacious entrance hall already shows how straightforward the layout is. It runs almost through the middle of the house and naturally divides the rooms without losing much space to long corridors.

To the left is the living room with its large windows and French balcony, followed by another room connected by a sliding door. Whether this will eventually be used for eating, working, reading or sleeping is something no one needs to decide today, because rooms like these are pleasant: They can simply become whatever is currently needed.

That also makes this house very well suited to a small family. A bedroom for the parents, a separate room for the child, the living room as a shared centre and the kitchen with dining area directly opposite – everything is on one level and pleasantly close together, without anyone having to get in each other’s way.

On the opposite side is the kitchen-living room, and at the latest here the year of construction is allowed to have a say. The kitchen is separated from the dining area by a breakfast bar, there is enough space beside it for eating together, and otherwise too the house has remarkably preserved much of its history.

Anyone who experienced the 80s themselves will recognise quite a few things here. The built-in wooden fittings, the kitchen and especially the bathroom really do not deny their decade. One thing or another may cause a small smile today – at the same time, that is precisely the wonderful opportunity to give this house your own personal touch step by step.

A separate bedroom as well as the bathroom and WC complete the ground floor. The underfloor heating throughout the living area, supplied by a comparatively young oil heating system, is particularly pleasant.

And then there is a second level that should not be underestimated in a house with 81 m² of living space, because another around 80 m² of basement space is available below.

In addition to the laundry room, utilities and the usual storage options, there is even a small parlour with its own kitchen – a remnant from a time when a basement was not intended merely to ensure that boxes would not be found again for as long as possible. There is certainly plenty of space for hobbies, a workshop, supplies or all the things that have no place upstairs but that one still does not want to part with.

The house itself has also had quite a bit done to it over the years. Around 20 years ago, the façade received thermal insulation, and the roof was also retiled. The fact that the basement remained dry during the exceptionally heavy rainfall and flooding of 2024 is a rather pleasant piece of information for a house with a full basement.

And at some point, of course, one should go outside again, because the garden with its terrace opens up at the side of the house. Trees and shrubs provide greenery and privacy, flowers have found their places over the years, and there is also provision for the barbecue. The garden is large enough to really be a garden, but manageable enough that, alongside gardening, there is still plenty of time to sit on the terrace and do absolutely nothing.

A private garage directly by the house is also included and makes the whole thing fairly complete.

Of course, the next owner will leave their own traces here. Perhaps the kitchen will eventually get a new look, perhaps the bathroom will change, perhaps the room behind the living room will become a child’s room, an office or something completely different again later.

The good basis for this is certainly there: a solid house in an absolutely quiet location, living on one level, almost the same amount of space again below, a private garden with terrace and a neighbourhood where it is easy to live well.

Because sometimes you do not need more house, but simply one in which the things you need have their place.
