The apartment for sale is located in Friedenau, in a historic building from the Gründerzeit era, dating back to 1905. The corner building is situated on the quiet Mainauerstrasse/Bachestrasse, surrounded by green trees, front gardens, and classic Berlin buildings. Access to the building is via a historical entrance secured with a door pin, leading to the staircase with stained glass and sisal flooring. The apartment, located on the 3rd floor, is bright and airy, with a balcony overlooking the quiet courtyard and the green street. The unique view from the corner room allows you to observe the activity on the street. The layout is unique: all three rooms are connected, and the classic layout is typical for this type of building. A double door connects the largest room with the balcony room. A new designer fireplace has been installed on a flush-mounted glass panel above the parquet flooring in this room. The corner room also features a tiled stove that has been restored and is functional. Real, cast plasterwork can be found in every room and in the bathroom.

The building is managed by a readily accessible property management company that has a long-term understanding of the property and is committed to its sustainable development. Overall, the corner building is in exceptionally good condition.

Friedenau is considered the artists' district, known for its impressive buildings from the Gründerzeit era, numerous squares, and prominent residents. Marlene Dietrich, Max Frisch, and Günther Grass are just a few of the famous people who have lived here. If you're looking for a neighborhood with small cafes, excellent restaurants, narrow streets, and plenty of squares, you'll find it all in Friedenau. For example, just 130 meters from the apartment is the charming "Lehmbrucks" cafe, with a lovely atmosphere and friendly staff (recommendation: fresh pear and mint juice). You can enjoy the best truffle pasta at the restaurant "I Mortifami," a traditional and long-standing Italian establishment. There's a market near the Friedenau town hall every Wednesday, Thursday, and Saturday, offering a wide variety of regional products. The "Babka & Krantz" master bakery creates the most delicious sweet pastries in various flavors (recommendation: poppy seed pastries). In short, Friedenau is a favorite place and is worth visiting, even apart from a stay at our apartment. Everything that brings joy to life is within a 5-minute walk from the apartment. Retail:
