Property description

Multi-family house with attached courtyard building in the Heßler district of Gelsenkirchen, in a simple residential location in the immediate vicinity of the A42 motorway. The three-storey main building with basement dates in its core from 1900 and was rebuilt in 1948; the one- to two-storey courtyard building originally served as a bakery with stabling.

The multi-family house comprises five flats of 40 to around 126 m², distributed across the ground floor, first and second upper floors, as well as two flats in the attic storey, which are currently let. The courtyard building with former bakery and storage areas is apparently owner-occupied, with the commercial operation having been closed and sealed by the authorities. The achievable market-standard annual gross income is around 43,138 €, while the actually agreed rents are significantly lower.

The structural condition is described as satisfactory with maintenance backlog in places and technical obsolescence, including the simple, outdated electrical installation and slight cracking on the façade. For buyers willing to undertake refurbishment, the rent increase reserve relative to the market-standard rent offers additional potential.

Official property description

The court’s wording

Laut Wertgutachten handelt es sich um ein dreigeschossiges Mehrfamilienhaus samt Hofgebäude, Heßlerstraße 21, 45883 Gelsenkirchen, Ortsteil Heßler. Das Mehrfamilienhaus von ca. 1900 (leicht modernisiert) ist unterkellert und mit ausgebautem Dachgeschoss. Es besteht aus 5 Wohneinheiten:

1 Wohnung im Erdgeschoss (ca. 87 m² m groß),

1 Wohnung im 1. Obergeschoss (ca. 125 m² m groß),

1 Wohnung im 2. Obergeschoss (ca. 125 m² m groß),

2 Wohnungen im Dachgeschoss (jeweils ca. 60 m² groß),

welche vermietet sind (Stand Gutachten vom 31.01.2025).

Im dem Hofgebäude befindet sich eine Gewerbeeinheit (Bäckerei), welche wahrscheinlich eigengenutzt wird. Der Betrieb wurde am 10.10.2024 aus gewerblichen Gründen dauerhaft und zwangsweise geschlossen und versiegelt.

In der Nähe verläuft die Autobahn A42, sodass eine starke Immissionsbelastung herrscht. Der Zugang zum Gebäude ist nicht barrierefrei.

Die Erstellung des Gutachtens erfolgte überwiegend ohne Innenbesichtigung.

Es wird die Einsicht in das komplette Gutachten dringend angeraten!

English translation

According to the valuation report, this concerns a three-storey multi-family house together with courtyard building, Heßlerstraße 21, 45883 Gelsenkirchen, Heßler district. The multi-family house from ca. 1900 (lightly modernised) has a basement and a converted attic storey. It consists of 5 residential units:

1 flat on the ground floor (approx. 87 m² in size),

1 flat on the 1st upper floor (approx. 125 m² in size),

1 flat on the 2nd upper floor (approx. 125 m² in size),

2 flats in the attic storey (each approx. 60 m² in size),

which are let (as at the appraisal dated 31.01.2025).

The courtyard building houses a commercial unit (bakery), which is probably owner-occupied. The business was permanently and forcibly closed and sealed on 10.10.2024 for commercial reasons.

The A42 motorway runs nearby, so there is a significant noise and pollution burden. Access to the building is not barrier-free.

The appraisal was prepared predominantly without an interior inspection.

Inspection of the complete appraisal report is urgently recommended!
