Two rooms, not one. There's a 13.6 m2 main room and, through a doorway, a separate 5.4 m2 bedroom, 19 m2 between them. Work in one, sleep in the other, and never have your desk staring at you from bed. In a flatshare that kind of separation is hard to come by.
Both rooms have been fully renovated and come furnished (the actual furniture may differ from the photos). The main room is the striking one, with high ceilings, exposed beams, solid wood parquet, air conditioning, and a proper desk. It has space to sit, eat and work. The bedroom sits quietly off to the side and holds a queen-size double bed.
Rent is a flat €1,050 a month with nothing on top. Utilities, heating, electricity, 500 Mbit/s broadband and a fortnightly clean of the shared areas are all included. No year-end bill, no surprises.
The flatshare
Three of us on paper, though there's a room going alongside this one. It's me, Max (23, working in tech), and whoever takes the rooms. The vibe is easy and considerate: not a place where people just pass through, but not a party flat either. We'll cook together or fire up the grill on the terrace now and then, but there's no expectation to.
Beyond your own two rooms, everything shared is yours too: the kitchen (around 20 m2), a modern bathroom with a rain shower, a separate guest WC, and the roughly 30 m2 roof terrace looking out over the city.
The area
You're in the heart of the Agnesviertel, widely considered the most beautiful part of Cologne. Cafés, restaurants, the weekly market and Fort X park are all on the doorstep. Town and the main station are 10 to 15 minutes off, on foot or by tram, with Ebertplatz and Reichenspergerplatz both walkable. Supermarkets, bakeries and pharmacies are all close by, and the Rhine and old town are a short cycle away.
Practical details
The whole flat went through a full renovation recently and is kept in excellent shape. The building is heritage-listed, so there's no energy certificate to provide. You can move in from 1 August 2026, and the length of stay is open, so we can work it out together. The deposit is three months' rent (€2,160).

Frequently asked questions for this offer
What happens after I make a reservation?
Once you send a reservation request, the landlord is notified that you are interested in their offer. From that moment, they have 24 hours to approve or reject your reservation.
Landlords are mainly interested in the profile of their tenant. Do not forget to fill in all necessary information, add your profile picture, or even make a short video about yourself. Doing that will make you more attractive for the owner and your reservation will more likely get approved.
What is the standard furnishing of flats?
All the apartments on offer on HousingAnywhere must meet certain standards. We require fully furnished and equipped ones, dishes, cutlery and internet connection included.
What is a medium-term rent?
The duration of a medium-term rent is usually 1 to 12 months. Most of the landlords offer long-term rents or rents for just a few days, therefore getting a medium-term rent without HousingAnywhere is not that easy.
Can I go through the contract before I make a reservation of the housing?
You can take a look at the contract in advance and online with every offer. After you sign it, you will find it in the application My Housing.
While arranging a contract on HousingAnywhere, you do not have to worry that it could be disadvantageous for you. Our contracts are made so that we avoid all problems! All of them are the same, used by all the landlords on HousingAnywhere.
Can I see my chosen accommodation in person before I sign the lease agreement?
Your time is precious. That's why we've added a virtual tour option to our platform so you can see some of the rentals listed on HousingAnywhere from the comfort of your own home.
If a virtual tour isn't available for the accommodation you've chosen, you can contact the landlord and ask them if they're willing to give you a personal tour of the rental unit.
If you move in and find that the rented accommodation doesn't match the information on HousingAnywhere at the time the reservation request was sent to the landlord, you can withdraw from the lease agreement under certain circumstances explained in this article in our help center.
Also, under our "secure move-in" policy, we'll assist you with moving to an alternative accommodation if you report within a certain period of time that the rental unit doesn't match the ad and the landlord doesn't fix the problem immediately. You can read the details in our help center.
How can I pay?
On HousingAnywhere, you have a variety of payment methods to choose from. You can use your card, payment gateway or bank transfer. Just pick the one which suits you the most.
How can I cancel my reservation?
How you can cancel a reservation varies depending on what stage the reservation is in.
Is your reservation request still waiting for landlord approval? Then you can simply cancel it directly from your My Housing web app!
However, suppose the owner has already approved your reservation request, and you are no longer interested in it. In that case, you can still cancel the reservation before you sign the lease agreement. Just consider that you should do this only in essential cases. Because when the landlord accepts your reservation, their property is stopped being advertised, and they can lose the chance to rent their property to someone else.
Do you have an approved reservation and also a valid agreement? In order to cancel your reservation, contact HousingAnywhere customer support well in advance of your contract beginning (the specific time and amount of refund depends on the type of cancelation policy).
