unabashedly unrenovated –
space for your vision
It sounds unusual, but it's a genuine offer from jenawohnen: take over an unrenovated or partially renovated prefab apartment in Lobeda and do (almost) whatever you want with it. Design the apartment exactly as you dream it to be. Play with the nostalgic charm of the original furniture and fixtures, some of which are still there. Or tear everything out and build something completely different. Create your own castle with creative wall, ceiling and floor designs.
If the tenancy agreement ends, everything stays as it is. Nothing needs to be renovated, painted, or dismantled. The next tenant takes over the apartment as they find it: unbashedly unrenovated. And then turns it into their own dream home...
An offer for creative people, students, DIY enthusiasts, and anyone who prefers to design rather than take over.

The most important facts about jenaFREEstyle
JenaFREEstyle is a service offered by jenawohnen that allows you to take over an unrenovated apartment and design it entirely according to your own ideas. There are no limits to your creativity! Unfortunately, however, the range of jenaFREEstyle apartments is very limited.
jenaFREEstyle is aimed at anyone who has crazy ideas for their own four walls but whose previous landlords have not approved them. Or at tenants who want lots of rooms and have two golden hands.
Except for the built-in electronics and plumbing, everything can be changed. You can get creative, play around with the charm of the original furniture, or rip it out. You can also design the walls, floors and ceilings to your liking. You can remodel these as you wish or tear them out completely.
When the lease ends, the apartment remains as it is. The next tenant takes it over as they find it - unfurnished and unrenovated - and turns it into their own dream home.
Since the apartments are not undergoing extensive renovation, tenants are financially rewarded for their creativity: the basic rents are at the lower end of the scale in Jena. In addition, each tenant is exempt from paying the first month's rent. The money saved is to be used for redesigning the apartment. Except for the electronics and sanitary facilities, everything can be redesigned according to the tenant's wishes.
Another advantage is that when the tenancy ends, the apartment remains as it is.
Furthermore, the rental agreement comes with a generous hardware store voucher:
2-room apartment: €300 voucher
3-room apartment: €500 voucher
4-room apartment: €700 voucher
