Interbau-era garden jewel in Wilmersdorf: southwest, quiet & commission-free

VISION: This well-kept, three-storey property was completed in 1958 - one year after the Interbau exhibition - when Berlin was the center of an optimistic architectural movement that espoused the ideals of "light, air and sun". It was therefore conceived as part of the Green Metropolis vision, which aimed to bridge the gap between urban density and the restorative power of nature. To fulfill this mission, all 18 one-bedroom apartments face southwest and overlook a park-like private garden at the rear, which serves as a corridor of light and a natural backdrop.

ENSEMBLE: The building is set back from the quiet street by a front garden of dense ivy and mature trees. Behind this green buffer, the white façade appears playful and serene, accentuated by blue tiles, coloured glass panels and the modernist logo of a stylized city - perhaps the city of tomorrow that was propagated at Interbau. In just a few steps, you are in the heated foyer, which is illuminated by the building's striking glass panels.

ARCHITECTURAL HISTORY: The property was built by Neue Heimbau GmbH, a major developer at Interbau 1957, whose portfolio includes architectural icons such as the 17-storey Junggesellenhochhaus (the Giraffe), the Hassenpflug-Hochhaus (Bartningallee 7) and the southern residential row in Klopstockstraße. The company brought the Interbau concepts to West Berlin by developing unofficial sister projects. This property, which was managed by the company until its privatization in 1979, is one such example: a functional Interbau design translated into the relaxed elegance of Wilmersdorf. The high quality of living in this apartment is therefore the result of a deliberate architectural solution for nature-oriented, urban living.

CLASSIC BERLIN CITIZENSHIP The property is located in the middle of an enclave of historic villas in a quiet, tree-lined street close to Fehrbelliner Platz. The district is consistently regarded as one of the safest residential areas in Berlin and has proven to be one of the most stable real estate markets. This makes the location a sound choice for asset preservation and long-term value retention.

CONNECTIVITY: Despite the quiet residential location, the apartment offers excellent connections via the Fehrbelliner Platz and Heidelberger Platz train stations (500 m and 700 m away respectively) as well as several bus routes. The street itself is not a parking management zone (no fees or resident parking permits required), which makes for a rare and uncomplicated parking situation. Drivers also benefit from easy access to the A100 city highway - for effortless connections to BER airport and beyond.

LIFESTYLE: Local life is concentrated around the nearby Parkcafé, which boasts a traditional beer garden and a striking coffee house made of glass and wood - the ideal place for relaxing afternoons, whether in the light-flooded interior or under a canopy of mature trees. On summer weekends, the popular "Art & Flea Market" and the famous Thai Park take place in the adjacent area, offering a unique mix of antique hunting and authentic street food in a relaxed picnic atmosphere.

SPORT & RECREATION: The property is located just a few minutes from Volkspark Wilmersdorf and the Fennsee lake; Grunewald forest is also within easy reach. The surrounding area offers an exceptional range of leisure activities:
-Nature: jogging, cycling and training in the calisthenics park.
-Summer: Wilmersdorf summer swimming pool, stadium and various tennis/ball courts.
-Winter: Horst Dohm ice rink and the Wilmersdorf municipal swimming pool with spacious sauna facilities.
