Grundrisse

Other information

The current tenants have a statutory right of first refusal because they were already living in the unit before the building was converted into condominiums. This right allows them to purchase the apartment under the same terms as a third party in the event of a sale.
Furthermore, in the event of termination for personal use, a statutory notice period of 36 months applies. This combination ensures planning security for both parties—while the existing tenancy underscores the building’s stability and high quality of living.

location

This exceptional family home is located in one of Leipzig’s most sought-after neighborhoods—the lively Südvorstadt, considered the beating heart of alternative Leipzig. The location uniquely combines urban charm with a family-friendly atmosphere and offers ideal conditions for a relaxed family life in the heart of the trade fair city.

The micro-location stands out for its tree-lined residential street, which is nonetheless just a few minutes’ walk from the famous Karl-Liebknecht-Straße, affectionately known as “Karli.” This lively promenade is the main artery of the Südvorstadt and connects the city center with the trendy Connewitz district. Here, charming cafés, cozy restaurants, unique boutiques, and alternative shops line the street, creating the special flair of this neighborhood. The historic Wilhelminian-style buildings give the street its distinctive character and create an atmosphere that delights young and old alike.

The nearby Clara Zetkin Park is a true gem for families and, with its expansive green spaces, playgrounds, and the picturesque Johannapark, offers ideal opportunities for relaxation and leisure activities. Whether cycling, jogging, picnicking, or simply relaxing—this green retreat is just a short walk away and practically extends the living space outdoors.

Transportation connections are excellent, making the apartment the perfect starting point for all your activities. Several tram lines connect the Südvorstadt directly to the city center and all other neighborhoods. The bus routes perfectly complement the dense public transportation network. Particularly convenient for commuters is the walking distance to the MDR S-Bahn station, which offers connections throughout the Leipzig-Halle metropolitan region and thus also enables professional flexibility.

Local amenities leave nothing to be desired—both on Karli and in the adjacent streets, families can find everything they need for daily life. From organic shops to bakeries and butcher shops to well-stocked supermarkets, everything is conveniently within walking distance. The diverse dining scene ranges from cozy family cafés and international cuisine to traditional Saxon taverns, offering something for every taste.

For families with children, the Südvorstadt is a true paradise. The educational landscape is excellent—several elementary schools, including the Ida Blum School, are located in the immediate vicinity. The renowned Immanuel Kant Gymnasium offers outstanding secondary education right on the premises. Kindergartens and daycare centers are well distributed and offer various educational approaches. The recreational opportunities for children and teenagers are diverse—from music schools and sports clubs to cultural institutions, everything is available.
