WIDOliving

The WIDOliving residential quarter by evohaus GmbH — awarded the "KlimaQuartier.NRW" quality seal — sits on a pleasant long-lease plot within a quiet, established residential area. It comprises 63 bright, high-quality, turnkey apartments spread across six apartment buildings, plus a daycare centre.

From compact two-room flats for singles or couples to generous penthouses, there is a home for every lifestyle and taste. Thanks to the high energy standard combined with a clever energy system, WIDOliving is largely energy-autonomous and CO₂-free. This not only benefits the environment but also keeps heating and energy costs low.

Your new home is located in Widdersdorf in Cologne’s western district — a place that combines village-like charm with modern infrastructure. Within minutes you’ll reach supermarkets, a farm shop, bakeries, restaurants and schools — and extensive fields and meadows ideal for walks.

Eco? Of course!

With an apartment in WIDOliving you commit to a future-proof lifestyle and are protected against rising energy prices. The buildings are constructed in high-quality solid masonry to the KfW 40+ energy standard. The quarter’s heating and energy supply is largely self-sufficient via groundwater heat pumps combined with photovoltaic systems. Surplus energy is stored so it is available during periods of low sunlight — for example at night. The advanced energy management system (EMS) prioritises the cheapest available electricity (self-generated before purchased green electricity). An "energy traffic light" in each apartment tells you which energy source is currently used, so you can plan washing or dishwashing when electricity is cheapest or self-generated.

Fulfil your housing dream immediately

WIDOliving impresses with sustainability and energy efficiency as well as attractive architecture — from the generous inner courtyard and well-designed outdoor areas to the buildings’ clear facades. A special feature is the trees and planted islands rising out of the daylight-filled parkade (underground car park). Inside, the rounded staircases in exposed concrete and the striking light domes create a strong architectural character. Lift access ensures step-free entry to the largely barrier-reduced apartments. The generous ceiling heights (approx. 2.60–3.00 m) and well-thought-out floor plans create a special sense of space. Large balconies and terraces invite outdoor living. Best of all: the apartments are sold turnkey and are immediately ready for occupancy.

Green & quiet

Discover Cologne from its green side. Widdersdorf has retained its village-like character while offering modern everyday conveniences. Supermarkets, a farm shop, bakeries, restaurants, doctors and pharmacies are within walking distance. The bus stop is right outside the front door, and fields and meadows around the district provide great opportunities for jogging and walks. The Cologne Golf Club is very close by — a lovely bonus for golf lovers.
