Efficiently laid out 2-room apartment in a renovated old building – rented on an indefinite basis, in a prime Hernals location near AKH

This charming two-room apartment is located on the second floor of a stylishly revitalized old building on Bergsteiggasse in the 17th district – in a quiet residential street with excellent infrastructure, only a few minutes from AKH. The apartment comprises ca. 41,4 m² of living space, is practically laid out and easily reachable via a barrier-free lift. Currently the apartment is rented on an indefinite basis.

The generous living area with ca. 21 m² forms the heart of the apartment. Large window surfaces provide plenty of daylight and a pleasant sense of space. Directly adjacent is the combined kitchen and entrance area with ca. 9,8 m², which provides central access to all areas. The kitchen can be designed openly here or visually separated from the living area – depending on individual living style.

Another highlight is the cabinet with ca. 7,2 m², which is ideal as a sleeping niche, home office or guest room. The apartment also has a shower bathroom with WC (ca. 3,3 m²), which is compact but functional.

The property itself was comprehensively modernized in 2003, including attic expansion and installation of an elevator that conveniently serves all floors. As part of a further upgrade, in 2023 the entrance area was redesigned, with high-quality wood paneling and a digital notice board. The lovingly designed inner courtyard complements the well-maintained overall appearance of the complex.

For communal use there is a carefully renovated basement with a laundry room (including washing machine and dryer), a bicycle and stroller storage room, and individually assigned basement compartments. On the ground floor there are seven car parking spaces, six of which are space-saving lift platform solutions.
