Description
Wunderschöne, kleine Eigentumswohnung in allerbester Lage von Berlin Steglitz, nahe Feuerbachstraße.
Dieses hübsche Stadtapartment ist bereits seit 1978 an eine inzwischen betagte Dame vermietet und wird vermietet verkauft.
Die gut 31 m² große Wohnung befindet sich im 2. Obergeschoss und überzeugt durch ihre gute Raumaufteilung und die einladende, super helle Atmosphäre.
Das Wohn-/ Schlafzimmer bietet Zugang zum sonnigen Balkon, der mit reichlich Platz zum Entspannen im Freien einlädt.
Eine kleine Kitchen-Edge befindet sich gut versteckt hinter einem Vorhang. Das Badezimmer ist praktisch angeordnet und bietet eine Wanne sowie ein Fenster.
Hier kann irgendwann nach eigenen Vorstellungen gestaltet oder modernisiert werden.
Die Miete wird pünktlich und problemlos gezahlt.
Insgesamt das perfekte Angebot für Kapitalanleger.
Berlin-Steglitz begeistert durch seinen charmanten Mix aus urbanem Komfort und grüner Umgebung.
Einkaufsmöglichkeiten, Cafés, Bars und Restaurants sowie Schulen und Kindergärten sind schnell erreichbar. Die Steglitzer Schlossstraße ist eine der beliebtesten Einkaufsmeilen der Stadt.
Die Anbindung an den öffentlichen Nahverkehr sowie an die Berliner Innenstadt ist ausgezeichnet, sodass Sie alle Vorzüge des Großstadtlebens genießen können –und dennoch in einer ruhigen und entspannten Wohngegend zuhause sind.
Location
Open in Google MapsLiving in Berlin
The most affordable major capital in Western Europe, with a massive international community and a creative, countercultural energy that's hard to find elsewhere. Rent is still reasonable by European standards, public transit is excellent, and you won't need a car. The catch: bureaucracy is legendary, finding an apartment is a full-time job, and while many Berliners speak English, long-term integration requires committing to German.
Bread that ruins all other bread forever, bike commutes along tree-lined canals, and a culture that perfects efficiency Monday through Friday then completely surrenders to beer gardens on the weekend.

Next steps for moving to Germany
Interested in this property? Here's how to move forward.
Understand the buying rules
Foreign ownership laws vary wildly by country. Some welcome you, others restrict or ban foreign buyers entirely.
Sort out your visa
Owning property doesn't give you the right to live there. Research residency options before you buy.
Plan your finances
Understand currency risk, international wire transfers, and whether you can get a local mortgage.
Know your tax obligations
US citizens are taxed on worldwide income. You'll need to file US taxes from abroad and may owe local taxes too.
Set up healthcare
Medicare doesn't cover you overseas. You'll need international health insurance or a local plan.
Run the full checklist
Banking, mail forwarding, power of attorney, pet import rules — the complete pre-move checklist.
