The Building

The existing, period building was constructed around 1900, in the typical Berlin Altbau style, with beautiful high ceilings, wooden floors and stucco decoration, centred on a front building and side-wing. This building was modernised and partially refurbished, including the restoration of the simple, bright façade. As if this weren’t enough, an entirely new, 6-storey residential building will be raised as an annex in the courtyard, contrasting wonderfully with the existing building to form a harmonious whole.

The Apartment

With a spacious living room and sunny balcony looking out onto the peaceful Jahnstrasse, and a kitchen ideal for relaxed dinners, this apartment is ideal for couples or young families. The hallway offers plenty of storage space, the brightly-lit bathroom has a bathtub, and there are two bedrooms, one larger, master bedroom and one smaller bedroom perfect as a child’s bedroom or a home office. This is a wonderful investment apartment, sold already rented, in an underrated part of the city.

The Location

Though directly next to the hugely popular, busy and hip Neukölln, Britz has more of a neighbourhood feel to it. With numerous local shops, restaurants and cafes, Britz is its own, self-contained community, with plenty of green spaces and nature to explore. Yet it is also very well-connected to the rest of the city, if indeed you have any reason to leave...
