The property

Altbau Architecture is characterized by a passion for detail and quality, idiosyncratic of the German Imperial era beginning in the 1860’s and culminating in the first decades of the 20th century.
Buildings often vaunt arched doorways, hardwood floors, ornamented stucco elements, balconies, and ceilings reaching a height of 3.5 meters.
The unique characteristics of Altbau buildings were lost in later decades as industrialized and functional designs became architecturally dominant.
The combination of location – most Altbau buildings are situated in Berlin’s inner ring – and their unique design, render Altbau properties highly attractive to Berlin’s young professionals and international investors.
