Quiet apartment with balcony and communal garden

Just a few minutes from Klosterneuburg town centre is an apartment whose location may be even more pleasant today than it was at the time it was built. While many apartments close to the city centre heat up considerably in summer, it remains remarkably pleasant here even on particularly hot days.

The explanation begins with its location within the very well-maintained residential complex. The apartment is not on the street, but on the first floor of one of the rear buildings, surrounded by mature trees and protected from the immediate heat of urban traffic. With every step away from the street, it becomes quieter, greener – and noticeably more pleasant in summer.

The past few weeks in particular have shown the value this situation now has: Although outdoor temperatures repeatedly approached the 40-degree mark, the apartment remained pleasantly cool. Not through elaborate technical measures, but through a location and orientation that naturally reduce summer overheating. In view of increasingly hot summers, this is now far more than just a pleasant side effect. It is a residential advantage whose significance will probably increase considerably in the coming years.

The residential complex itself is also in an exceptionally well-maintained condition. It is continuously maintained, properly managed and, upon arrival, conveys the reassuring feeling that things are taken care of here.

The apartment offers approximately 72 m² of living space and three rooms. The centrally located entrance hall distributes access and leads to almost all rooms without using unnecessarily many square metres for long corridors.

On the left is a room currently used as a study, with the bedroom behind it. Both rooms are pleasantly separate from the living area and are therefore also well suited to people who work from home but do not want work and leisure to permanently overlap.

On the right is the bathroom, which has preserved an unmistakable greeting from the time when it was built. Its warm orange comes from an era in which people still made decisions about colour choices. And, surprisingly, it has survived the past decades exceptionally well. Whether this historical witness is preserved or the room is given a completely new look is up to the future owner. The WC is conveniently separate.

Straight ahead, the bright living room opens up. Instead of opposing façades or neighbours’ windows, trees and shrubs define the view here. They not only provide a constantly changing play of colours, but also contribute to the pleasant living climate one would not necessarily expect in such a central location.

The loggia is directly in front of it. It is not huge, but offers exactly the right amount of space for a small table, two armchairs and everything needed for a morning coffee or a quiet evening. Above all, you sit here protected, with a view of the greenery and remarkably comfortably even on hot days.

The kitchen is separate from the living area and functionally equipped. Technically, the apartment is in solid condition, and the gas individual-floor heating has been regularly serviced. The heating demand of 71,5 kWh/m²a corresponds to category C and shows that even an apartment that does not come from the latest new-build brochure can be energetically quite reasonable.

Of course, it has visible reminders of the time when it was built. At the same time, it offers a solid foundation and sufficient scope for implementing contemporary living ideas. You can modernise carefully, make more extensive changes, or simply move in first and calmly find out what may remain.

The offer also includes a fixed parking space – a detail whose value is usually recognised at the latest when you do not have to drive several more rounds around the block in the evening.

Another special feature awaits outdoors: the communal garden. Not a theoretical green space that merely sounds good in the documents, but a garden that is actually used. With a garden shed, occasional barbecues and pleasant encounters, a community of residents has developed here that is not often found anymore. At the same time, this generous green space creates distance, shade and a more pleasant microclimate around the residential buildings.

Klosterneuburg town centre, shopping facilities, public transport and all important everyday amenities are within easy walking distance. Here, you live close to the city, surrounded by greenery and with a surprisingly relaxed climate. Even the forgotten milk for the morning coffee will probably be back home before the coffee has finished brewing.
