Garden floor with loft character in the Blankeneser Treppenviertel - fine view of the Elbe

This 2-room apartment is located between the winding paths of Blankeneser Treppenviertel on the garden floor of a small apartment building dating from around 1910 - a place that feels surprisingly spacious and wonderfully well thought out despite its compact size. The house comprises only five residential units, which gives it an almost private character.

The apartment was completely renovated in 2023: electrics, plumbing, surfaces - everything was planned and implemented with a steady hand. As soon as you enter, the design appears to have been cast from a single mold. Despite the compact space, practical details have been considered: There is an integrated checkroom niche in the hallway, and there is also a small storage room in which parts of the building services are concealed.

Oak parquet flooring and underfloor heating provide a warm, understated base, while the color scheme, selected lights and details such as the glass and steel sliding door add a touch of modern loft architecture. You can sense that someone has worked here with an architectural eye, without the style being too loud.

The living area opens onto the kitchen, which sets a clear accent with its black fronts. Across the bar counter, the view falls directly into the living area and out into the small garden - a connection that makes the room appear larger and brighter. The bedroom is quietly located off to the side. A small dressing area, concealed by a floor-to-ceiling mirrored door, ensures order and lightness.

The bathroom was carefully designed: modern, but not over the top. The spacious shower measuring around 90 × 160 cm forms the focal point, and the window gives the room a pleasantly natural feel. A separate niche offers space for a washing machine, so that the room appears calm and tidy despite being fully equipped.

A few steps lead down from the living area to the terrace and on to the garden, which is around 50 m² in size. It is a quiet, sheltered spot - and if you stand there, a small view of the Elbe opens up between the trees and facades. A brief moment that reminds you why the Treppenviertel is so special.

The house itself is also in good condition: the roof and pipes have been renewed and the structure maintained. All in all, the impression is of an apartment that impresses without any big words - with its clear design, well thought-out fittings and this small, very special Elbe moment in the garden.

This exceptional property is located in the historic Blankeneser Treppenviertel, one of Hamburg's most sought-after and well-known districts. The picturesque quarter is known far beyond the city limits for its winding alleyways, romantic captain's cottages and beautiful Elbe slopes. Stylish villas and maritime architecture are lined up along the slopes, giving this district its special charm.

The fantastic views of the moody Elbe, whose changing colors and play of light make every hour seem different, create an incomparable living atmosphere. Magnificent parks, direct access to the water and the beach as well as an exclusive neighborhood also characterize this location.

The center of Blankenese with its traditional weekly market, diverse shopping opportunities, charming boutiques and a wide range of restaurants is just a few minutes' walk away. Cafés on the Elbe and restaurants with a view of the water make the district a popular meeting place for Blankenese society. The proximity to the ferry and the S-Bahn also ensures convenient connections to Hamburg city center.
