About this apartment

This approx. 68 m² apartment on the 3rd floor of a listed historic building (architect Bruno Taut) from the 1920s was redesigned with an open layout by an architect in 2014. This created a bright, loft-like sense of space, making the apartment feel noticeably larger and more inviting. The high ceilings (2.92 m), continuous solid wood strip parquet flooring, and large windows create a warm, friendly atmosphere.
Despite the open-plan layout, there are two fully lockable rooms—ideal as a bedroom, children’s room, or home office. The daylight bathroom has a bathtub and was partially modernized, making it bright, functional, and contemporary. Every room offers a view of greenery. The sunny balcony overlooks the spacious, well-maintained inner courtyard with mature trees.
The apartment was freshly renovated before the sale: floors sanded and oiled, rooms refurbished—ready for immediate occupancy.
Personal note:
I consciously had the apartment designed to be so open and welcoming. My son, my partner, and I have always felt very comfortable here and greatly appreciated the proximity to Volkspark Friedrichshain, the many cafés, and the relaxed neighborhood. The building is home to a very nice, young, and helpful community, which makes living here particularly pleasant.
