Flat for sale 2 bedroom • 66 m² without real estateHartmannsweilerweg 3 Berlin Zehlendorf Berlin 14163

An architectural icon inspired by the idyll of an English garden city.

The Zinnowwald Settlement is an urban landmark of significant importance that extends beyond Zehlendorf. Inspired by the English garden city movement, it was built between 1925 and 1928 according to the plans of architect Gustav Hochhaus. The listed ensemble of 65 houses features characteristic elements of architectural Expressionism. Particularly striking are the façade with its warm red and yellow tones, as well as the contrasting white mullioned windows. The houses are set amid abundant greenery and mature trees. Their recessed, loosely arranged layout covers about 26,250 square meters, partly extending into the surrounding green spaces. A special eye-catcher is the generous loggias of the apartments, which provide plenty of privacy in the midst of lush nature.

Where the city shows its village side:

Sometimes, the best things are not far away. Among the popular districts in southwest Berlin, Zehlendorf impresses with its unique character. Here, village-like tranquility is combined with idyllic greenery and well-cultivated understatement. Zehlendorf represents a relaxed country chic with an urban touch.

The established surroundings are characterized by high residential quality and enduring value. Approximately 50 percent of the old district consists of woodland and water areas. Havel, Kleiner and Großer Wannsee, Schlachtensee, and Krumme Lanke are popular recreational destinations. The relaxed lifestyle has a special tradition. Since 1945, the U.S. Army has given the district an American flair. To this day, the casual air of the “new continent” wafts through the tree-lined avenues and cobblestone paths. With the Free University of Berlin, the university medical campus of the Benjamin Franklin Clinic, and many other science and research institutions, Zehlendorf has long solidified its status as the capital’s academic hub. In the neighborhood, you will find everything for your daily needs: bakeries, weekly markets, organic shops, yoga studios, and cultural offerings—from the Bali Cinema to the Brücke Museum at Grunewald, to international contemporary art at the Haus am Waldsee. Sports and leisure enthusiasts meet in traditional clubs, for example, for equestrian activities or tennis. Education is also held in high esteem in Zehlendorf. Parents appreciate the wide range of daycare centers and schools. Particularly popular are the John F. Kennedy School and the Leo Borchard Music School. With the lines of the Krumme Lanke U-Bahn station and the Zehlendorf S-Bahn station, as well as several bus lines, you enjoy excellent public transport connections.
