Detached EFH in Burscheid (163 sqm, 5 rooms, balcony, garage and guest apartment)

The detached single-family house was built in 1996 with its south-western gable end facing the street Weidenweg.
It is an I-storey building with a pitched roof storey developed for residential purposes. Due to the topography, the building with its basement (KG), which is exposed to the south-east side (street side) at full storey height, has an oversized garage integrated into the basement with an attached storage area. There is a step offset between the garage and storage area.
The house entrance and garage door are located in the basement on the south-eastern eaves side facing the street.
In addition to a utility/laundry room, a hallway and a storage room (under the staircase leading to the first floor), the basement also contains a comfortably furnished and daylit guest room (not included in the 5 rooms) with an adjoining bathroom. There is also a passageway from the hallway to the garage storage room.

On the ground floor, in addition to the central hallway and the staircase to the basement and the attic, a guest WC and a kitchen, there is a large living/dining room with a wood-burning stove and a further room. The entire width of the living/dining area faces north towards the garden. A terrace is accessible from the living area. All rooms are directly connected to the hallway except for the kitchen, which is only accessible via the dining area. The kitchen has both a gas hob and an electric hob with ceramic hob and oven. The dishwasher is not installed in the picture, but is part of the kitchen.
In addition to the staircase to the ground floor and a central hallway, there are 3 rooms and a spacious bath/shower room on the first floor. The bathroom was originally also connected to the adjoining room. The passageway was closed by the tenant in lightweight construction, but can be reopened at any time. The other two rooms are each directly connected to the balcony on the south-western gable end and have their own washing areas. A laundry chute runs from the bathroom on the ground floor to the utility/laundry room.

From the hallway in the attic, there is access to the loft (SB) via a wooden folding ceiling staircase. The SB serves as a storage area. The heating system and hot water system are also located in a separate area of the SB.

The water heating is supported by 3 solar thermal panels mounted on the roof.

The garage can be accessed via a driveway that rises in a straight line from the Weidenweg road. From the driveway, a 10-step staircase leads up a grassed embankment to the garden strip running along the south-western gable end of the house, which then provides access to the terrace and the main garden. A garden shed is located in an elevated position in the north-western corner of the property. An underground rainwater cistern is located on the north-eastern gable end of the house, in which rainwater is collected from the roof and made available as service water in the house.
The house has been continuously maintained, renovated and modernized in some areas. It is a prefabricated house in timber construction on a
a basement built in solid masonry/reinforced concrete on reinforced concrete foundations. The floor slab and the ceiling above the basement are made of reinforced concrete.
The exterior walls of the prefabricated house consist of timber frame walls with 16 cm thick mineral full thermal insulation, sound and heat insulating, cement-bound plaster base and joint-free cement mortar plaster. The exterior walls are plastered and painted, and the roof was subsequently insulated in 2013.
