Top floor apartment with rooftop garden and Karlskirche view

Karlskirchenblick. About 180 m² of living space. About 70 m² of outdoor space. Absolute quiet location. Historic-style building. Roof garden. A rare penthouse rarity in close proximity to the 1st district.

There are properties you visit. And there are properties you experience.

High above the rooftops of Vienna, just a few steps from the Karlskirche and the Vienna city center, you will find an extraordinary penthouse maisonette in one of the city’s most desirable residential locations. While the dome of the Karlskirche seems within reach and the 1st district is reachable within a few minutes on foot, you will here enjoy a calm and privacy that are rarely found in this location.

The exclusive top-floor apartment is located in a magnificent and well-maintained historic-style building with a representative entrance hall and a beautifully articulated Gründerzeit façade. The quiet, lightly trafficked side street conveys a pleasant living ambience in the heart of Vienna. With the lift you reach the top floor comfortably, where on about 180 m² of living space and a total of about 70 m² of outdoor space a remarkable home unfolds across three levels.

The heart of the apartment is formed by the generous living level with attractive room height, floor-to-ceiling glazing, and direct access to the outdoor areas. On another level you reach the lovingly redesigned roof garden with about 51 m² of space, automatic irrigation, green areas and terraces. From here there is an incomparable view of the dome of the Karlskirche and over Vienna’s roofs and landmarks—a private refuge above the city’s rooftops.

The apartment was built during the conversion of the attic in 2003 and has been used only very rarely since then. There was practically no permanent occupancy, which is why the property today presents itself in an extraordinarily well-maintained overall condition. At the same time, it offers its future owner the rare opportunity to reinterpret the design and equipment according to their own ideas. The existing surfaces and design elements largely date from the time of origin and provide the ideal basis for a stylish modernization at the highest level.

What makes this property especially appealing is this combination: rather than paying for already made design decisions, you acquire an extraordinary substance in an absolute prime location and create your very own penthouse above Vienna’s rooftops.

A rare opportunity in an exceptional location

A apartment of this size and quality is hardly available in the immediate vicinity of Vienna’s city center. The combination of a representative historic-style building, 180 m² of living space, around 70 m² of outdoor space, a spectacular view, absolute quiet location, and the possibility of individualized redesign makes this property a rare opportunity for discerning buyers.

An penthouse for people who seek the extraordinary—and who value the worth of an exceptional location.

Welcome above Vienna’s rooftops.
