Life above the roofs of Altensteig

Ozean Horizont Projektentwicklungs GmbH & Co. KG from Herrenberg is expected to complete the construction work on its new apartment building with 29 apartments in Altensteig at the end of September 2022. The search for suitable tenants for the residential units will begin shortly.

Altensteig, 03.05.2022 – The housing shortage in Germany is progressing. There is a lack of affordable apartments and houses, especially in major German cities. The constant increase in rental prices is also causing citizens to increasingly settle in rural areas outside of the big cities. Therefore, the federal government in Germany is taking more and more measures to make rural areas more attractive and to promote them. The developer, Ozean Horizont Projektentwicklungs GmbH & Co. KG, is also making its contribution and has been building an unusual apartment building in Altensteig in the northern Black Forest since July 2020.

After a construction period of 24 months, the work is scheduled to be completed in September 2022. In a modern design, the residential quarter is integrated directly into the slope of the Schlossberg and is located in the immediate vicinity of the Altensteiger city center, which reflects the good infrastructure of the city of around 11,000 inhabitants.

The apartments arranged around an atrium offer their residents light-flooded living and promise rest and relaxation. Due to the proximity to the city center, all daily needs can be done within walking distance. The residential building with elevator offers 29 barrier-free residential units with two, three or four rooms. They have 40 to 100 square meters of living space and are equipped with a balcony, terrace or patio, kitchen, and bathroom. There are four barrier-free residential units on the first floor.

Whether for young families, couples, individuals or seniors, the living concept addresses all needs. Each residential unit is equipped with a high-quality parquet floor and the „frogblue“ smart home system, which can be controlled via Bluetooth. Lighting, roller shutters and, if necessary, other elements can be controlled via push button and app. A special highlight of the property is the communal roof terrace, which offers a spectacular view of the old town of Altensteig and is available for use by all residents. A total of 34 parking spaces are available for future residents. “We look forward to completing the project in Altensteig soon. With the new building, we hope to be able to offer future residents a comfortable and modern living space in an idyllic setting,“ says Vasco Kienle, General Manager of the Ozean Group.

In order to enable senior citizens and people with disabilities in the residential property to be as comfortable as possible and to continue to live independently, the property management company Ozean Immobilien Management GmbH & Co. KG, a sister company of Ozean Horizont Projektentwicklung, offers an all-round carefree package for people in need. Three different packages are offered, each provided by the property management, the smart home solution „Frogblue“ and a well-known social organization. Included are special services such as a nursing service, domestic help or technical support. Optionally, these options can be booked monthly for a fee with the property management.


The Ozean Horizont project development will soon be looking for suitable tenants for the residential property. If you are interested in a residential unit for rent, you can inquire directly with the Ozean Horizont project development in Herrenberg.
