The semi-detached house offers 220 square meters of living space, seven rooms, a garden, a fireplace, and additional rooms for hobbies and leisure
A home is more than the sum of its square meters. It's Sundays at the breakfast table, children who eventually have their own rooms, the first coffee on the terrace, and perhaps the evening when the fireplace is crackling after a long day. A spacious semi-detached house in Darmstadt's composers' quarter offers a surprising amount of space for all of this – and plenty of opportunities to personalize your home.
There are houses where, just by reading the floor plan, you realize: there's more to them than just furniture.
This semi-detached house in the composers' quarter is one such example. Approximately 220 square meters of living space, seven rooms, and a further 145 square meters of usable space are spread over three floors. In addition, there is a 387 square meter plot of land, a south-facing garden, and a single garage.
Above all, the house offers something that is difficult to measure in square meters: space for communal living and at the same time enough opportunities for everyone to retreat.
From family breakfast to the end of the workday
The heart of the ground floor is the large, bright living and dining area with a fireplace. From here you have direct access to the terrace and the garden – a place for your first coffee in the morning, family meals in the summer, or simply a few quiet minutes after work.
The kitchen is separate and equipped with fitted units. In addition, there is a bedroom with an en-suite bathroom, another bathroom with natural light, an office, a storage room/dressing room, and a spacious hallway.
Upstairs, four more rooms await. Whether for children's rooms, guest rooms, a workspace, or a personal retreat, the layout offers space for different life stages and needs. A bathroom with natural light and a separate WC complete this floor.
And then there's the basement.
A basement that can do more
It becomes clear that this house wasn't just designed with practical storage space in mind. Besides three storage and pantry rooms, a laundry and drying room, there's a sauna with a large shower, a spacious hobby room with direct access to the garden, and even a basement bar with a corner bench.
This means that the end of the workday can also begin where other houses merely house their building services.
Perhaps the hobby room will become a fitness area. Perhaps it will become the domain for the next big project. Or perhaps you'll simply sit with friends at the basement bar while the sun has long since set outside.
Ultimately, the new owner will decide what happens to it.
A home with history – and a future
The house was in 1969 and features, among other things, double-glazed wooden and PVC windows and electric roller shutters. The property is heated by a gas central heating system, the boiler of which dates from 1993. The energy performance certificate indicates an energy efficiency rating of G.
This also means that whoever buys this house isn't simply taking over a finished product, but a home with potential for development. And that's precisely what can be particularly appealing to the right buyers.
While new buildings are often planned down to the last detail, an existing house can write its next story together with its new residents.
Right in the middle, yet peaceful
The composers' quarter is one of Darmstadt's most sought-after residential areas. The city itself combines science, culture, and urban infrastructure with easy access to the surrounding region. The university and colleges, shopping facilities, leisure activities, and excellent transport connections make Darmstadt an attractive place to live.
And yet, it is often precisely the return home that makes the difference: door closed, everyday life over.
Perhaps it's the crackling fireplace in the evening. Perhaps your own garden, which becomes a second living room in the summer. Perhaps the sauna after a long day. Or simply the knowledge that everyone in the family has their own place.
This unique home costs €875,000. Occupancy is possible by arrangement.
Those who are looking for more than just four walls, but a house where family life can develop over many years, are likely to discover something here.
And perhaps the most important question when looking at this property doesn't even arise when considering the floor plan.
But rather in imagining how one's own life might feel in it.
