Semi-detached house in Berlin Steglitz-Zehlendorf - sale by private bidding process

The house is part of the Lankwitz "Beamtensiedlung", which was designed in 1924 by a Swiss architect of the "Other Modernism" movement. The property is entered via a front garden path, which leads up a three-step staircase to the front door of the house. A small vestibule with a checkroom opens up here, followed by a hallway that leads to the two living rooms, the kitchen and the guest WC. Behind a door in the hallway is the staircase to the basement, while the upper floor is reached via an open, bright staircase.

The two living rooms on the first floor are connected by a large double door. They form the heart of the house and convey a pleasant feeling of living with plenty of space and light, which floods in from morning to evening through the wide north-west and south-east facing window fronts. The smaller living room looks out onto the front garden, while the larger living room looks out onto the main garden of the house, which offers many design options with its terrace, various flowerbeds and a large open lawn area. The property is bordered by fences, trees and dense hedges. There is also a view of the greenery beyond, as the surrounding houses are kept at a distance by the adjacent, extensive park.

There are two rooms on the upper floor of the house, which have a similar layout to the living rooms below. There is also a smaller room above the kitchen and a bathroom with a large window facing the street. All the rooms on the upper floor lead off a small, open hallway, from which a closed staircase leads to the attic with its converted attic. This converted part of the attic has two cupboards built into the sloping roof and offers a wonderful view of the garden and the adjacent green area through a large south-east-facing window. The attic also has a small room with a skylight. The pointed roof, which was occasionally used as a storage area, can also be reached via a small ladder.

The house has a full basement. Behind the cellar door on the first floor, a wide, open staircase leads to the cellar hallway. The boiler room with an oil heating system and oil tanks branches off to the left here, followed by a large, lowered room with a ceiling height of 2.20 meters. This room, also known as the garden room, initially served as an additional living room for the grandparents; today it can easily be used as a hobby room. A ground-level exit leads from the garden room to a small cellar forecourt and from there up a staircase into the garden. Next to the garden room, the cellar corridor leads into a laundry room with water and sewage connections and a heavy metal door that also leads to the cellar forecourt and the garden staircase.

A current detailed market value report is available for the house, which indicates a market value of 645,000.00 euros. The report can be inspected during the viewing.

Located in tranquil Lankwitz between the GeoCampus of Freie Universität Berlin and the well-tended green area of Pappritzstraße, the house with its southeast-facing garden offers a high recreational value. Leisurely walks through the adjoining park with its mature trees, benches and playgrounds are possible practically from the front door. The Lankwitz municipal park and the Alt-Lankwitz village green are also within walking distance, as are the Lilienthal memorial in Lichterfelde and the Marienfelde estate park and leisure park.

The area surrounding the semi-detached house is characterized by detached houses built around 1925 in a uniform style. The house is located in a quiet residential street with little traffic, yet is well connected to public transportation. A bus stop on the X83 line is just 200 m away on foot. This bus takes you to the Lankwitz S-Bahn station in approx. 8 minutes and to Steglitz town hall with the Schloßstraße shopping mile in approx. 18 minutes. Further rail connections are provided by the Marienfelde S-Bahn station approx. 1.3 km away, the Alt-Mariendorf U-Bahn station approx. 3.5 km away, the Lichterfelde Ost regional train station approx. 3.1 km away and the Südkreuz long-distance train station approx. 8.1 km away. A quick connection to the highway network (including the B101 and the A103) is provided via the nearby Malteserstraße. BER airport is also only approx. 20 km away by car.

In addition to the beautiful garden, the proximity to schools and daycare centers is a great advantage for families. Shopping facilities, doctors and a hospital are also within easy walking distance. Restaurants and cafés in the center of Lankwitz can be reached just as quickly by car, bicycle or bus.
