About the property
SOLD! A RARE “BLANK CANVAS” IN FREDERIKSBJERG
At the top of a classic red-brick building from the late 1800s is a flat whose like you rarely find in Frederiksbjerg.
Not because it has been fully renovated – quite the opposite.
It is largely as it was built, and that is precisely what makes it so special. Here you get a home that both oozes charm and holds a potential rarely offered in the area.
The official living area is 59 m², but the sloping walls of this top-floor flat mean that the many extra square metres under the eaves are not counted.
The actual built area of the property is a full 73 m² – and on top of that, the association has given permission for the landing to be incorporated, adding approx. 4 m².
And then comes the extraordinary part:
There is a loft above the flat – a large unused space that the buyer has the association’s permission to open up.
The roof has a collar-beam structure, well suited to opening up to the ridge or to creating a mezzanine that can feel like a whole extra floor.
The owners’ association has given written permission to incorporate the landing and to open up the loft to create a mezzanine or similar.
This right passes to the buyer.
Across the street, the neighbours have been granted building permission for a mezzanine, a Juliet balcony and, not least, large double roof windows on both sides of the ridge.
This shows that similar solutions have previously been approved in the area – and that it is possible to create a mezzanine with large opening windows that can serve as a sunny “roof terrace” experience.
As it stands, the layout is simple and functional, with a spacious kitchen-diner with charming details, a large living room, a lovely room and a bathroom, which is the flat’s only renovated room and presents well with a shower area and a ventilation window.
There is plenty of light from the dormer windows and an atmosphere that makes it easy to imagine how the home could be shaped and transformed to suit your style.
The building is well kept despite its age, and behind it you will find a cosy, enclosed, green and sunny courtyard that feels like a small private back garden – in the middle of the city.
It is perfect for both quiet moments and informal social get-togethers.
There is also a spacious, sound shared basement with room for storage, a washing machine, two drying rooms, a tumble dryer, a bathtub and a chest freezer.
The 2nd floor has access to a large storage room, which the association continues to accept.
Montanagade is in one of Aarhus’ most sought-after neighbourhoods – close to Ingerslev Boulevard, where market days, flea markets and small events bring life and atmosphere all year round, while Jægergårdsgade offers city life and atmosphere.
