25 m2 apartment on Visbjerg Hegn

A compact studio in the Visbjerg Hegn area of Mårslet offers 25 m² of living space aimed at students. Monthly rent is DKK 2,280. The rental period is defined in the tenancy agreement and is subject to the special regulations that apply to student housing. A security deposit of DKK 4,000 is required; there is no prepaid rent. Tenants pay an advance charge for consumption of DKK 365 per month, while electricity, water and heating are settled directly with the respective suppliers.

The flat contains its own kitchenette equipped with a small fridge, a ceramic hob and an extractor hood. A private bathroom with shower and toilet is included. Flooring is timber in the main living area and ceramic tiles in the kitchen and bathroom. The unit is let unfurnished; some apartments may include a wardrobe but this is not guaranteed, and there are rules about alterations or removal of fixed items which tenants must follow.

Radon tests have been carried out in selected homes in the block; this apartment’s measured level falls in the 100–200 Bq/m³ range. Further investigation and technical remediation will be carried out in cooperation with the Danish Technological Institute, and a follow-up control measurement is scheduled for the next heating season.

Residents have access to a variety of communal facilities. Outside there are bulky waste collection points, a bike shelter designated for student units, a bonfire area, several playgrounds, a small-goal football pitch, a basketball area and a biodiversity zone that includes shared small herb beds. Indoors the neighbourhood offers a community house and a guest room. Laundry is paid-for and located near the caretaker’s office.

Internet can be installed via YouSee with package selection at move-in, and it is possible to include the subscription payment in the rent; alternative TV and broadband services can be arranged directly through other providers such as Aura. Rules on keeping pets are set out by Boligkontoret Aarhus—prospective tenants should consult the current guidelines before moving in.

Several educational institutions are within easy reach, including KUSTOS Rideakademi Vilhelmsborg Fri Fagskole, the Agricultural Education Centre (Jordbrugets UddannelsesCenter), Bredballegård, VIA University College, Lyseng Alle and the Diakonhøjskolen, making the location suitable for students. Mårslet has bus links to Aarhus and Odder, and car travel times to nearby larger towns—Aarhus in particular—are short. Local shops and services cover daily needs, with a wider selection available in Aarhus.
