60s design classic with spectacular cathedral view

This exceptional property, built in 1964, presents itself as an architectural statement with clean lines, generous spaces and the typical flair of the 1960s—meticulously and period-accurately renovated with a keen sense of style and authenticity. In one of the most prestigious residential areas of Bergisch Gladbach, directly bordering the forest, it offers an impressive ensemble of living comfort, architectural elegance and spectacular views. With approx. 214 m² of living space and approx. 240 m² of usable space on a spacious plot, the building blends harmoniously into its surroundings—meadows, woodland and a distant view as far as Cologne Cathedral create a rare sense of openness and closeness to nature while still providing urban connectivity. The entrance area alone, with its double-leaf, ceiling-high solid-wood doors, is striking. Beyond it, the light-filled living area opens up with expansive windows that reveal the view toward Cologne—the “window to Cologne” is a true highlight! The seamless connection to nature is enhanced by the modern sliding-door system to the terrace: here you enjoy a sense of freedom amid the treetops. The upper floor impresses with three bedrooms and two stylishly designed full bathrooms, complemented by a guest WC in the entrance area. The kitchen, functional and timeless, is located on the same level. Thanks to the gentle hillside position, the house can be entered both from the upper level and from the garden level, which also forms the basement. Here are additional rooms with versatile potential uses—from a home office to guest or hobby rooms, to reactivating the former pool area as an exclusive wellness, fitness or spa zone. A separate living area or an accessory apartment would also be feasible; a separate entrance already exists. Three garages and three additional outdoor parking spaces provide ample parking. Over the past ten years, the property has been extensively renovated: among many other measures, the roof was renewed, new triple-glazed windows and a modern oil-fired condensing boiler were installed, water lines and bathrooms were refurbished, underfloor heating was installed in part, and the ceiling of the unheated rooms in the basement was insulated. This property combines timeless elegance with modern living comfort—a true one-of-a-kind for lovers of clear, characterful architecture.
