Apartment for sale in Köpenicker Str., Kreuzberg, 10997 Berlin, Germany

An outstanding, one-of-a-kind, two-bedroom penthouse for sale, located in Berlin’s Kreuzberg neighbourhood, right on the banks of the River Spree.

With approximately 160 sqm of living space, this penthouse is packed with sophisticated technological features and top-quality designer fittings/details, with a slick interior designed by Angelika Richter in 2008.

This elegant penthouse includes an expansive, open plan living area with kitchen, two bedrooms, each with an en suite bathroom. The principal bathroom has both a bath and a shower. The smaller, guest bedroom, currently used as a sauna/massage room can easily be converted back into a bedroom.

All the rooms have been fitted with top of the range built-in furniture, thereby providing plenty of storage space, and the impressive, high-quality joinery work shows a love of detail illustrated by features including hidden handles and a variety of backlit units. High quality materials like Travertine marble, Bisazza tiles and walnut have been used throughout the entire penthouse. The property even includes a Gira Revox Multiroom System enabling all the electrical installations, including the lighting, heating, security camera, blinds, and sound system, to be easily controlled. Invisible speakers have been mounted in the ceiling throughout the entire property, with external speakers located on the terrace, cleverly integrated and hidden within the planting which also boasts an automatic irrigation system.

The high-end kitchen, which features a Brazilian slate worktop, blends seamlessly into the overall design and is equipped with Miele appliances and a Gaggenau wine cooler. Other features include underfloor heating and air conditioning.

Situated on the banks of the River Spree in the very heart of Berlin, this unique penthouse sits majestically at the top of a former six storey factory building constructed in 1889. Each floor is connected by both stairs and a lift. It is located at the edge of the trendy Kreuzberg neighbourhood, not far from Oberbaum Bridge and the soon-to-be-built Brommy Bridge, and is situated right on the waterfront with a 180 degree view of the river.

With the intersection of cultural avant-garde, vibrant nightlife, and the undisputed quality of life in a city containing lots of green spaces and water, Berlin is a fascinating place. The area is expected to continue seeing further growth due to the ample downtown space still available...something unimaginable in most other major cities. This space is available due to the historical route of the Berlin Wall, and the areas along the River Spree rank among the absolute prime locations.

This extraordinary penthouse lies approximately 24km to the north of Berlin Brandenburg Airport (c. 35 minutes by car) and around 9km southeast of Berlin’s centre, Mitte (25 minutes by car). The popular Alexanderplatz is just over 3km to the northwest (c. 11 minutes’ drive).
