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

An architectural icon inspired by the idyllic English garden city.

The Zinnowwald settlement is an urban landmark of significance beyond Zehlendorf. Inspired by the English garden city movement, it was built between 1925 and 1928 according to plans by architect Gustav Hochhaus. The listed ensemble of 65 houses features characteristic elements of architectural expressionism. Particularly striking are the facade with warm red and yellow hues and the contrast-rich white muntin windows. The houses are nestled in abundant greenery and mature trees. Their recessed, staggered arrangement covers an area of approximately 26,250 square meters and partly extends into the green spaces. A special highlight is the generous balconies and loggias of the apartments, which offer plenty of privacy amidst lush nature.

Where the city shows its village side:

Sometimes what’s good isn’t far away. Among the popular districts in southwest Berlin, Zehlendorf captivates with its special character. Here, rural tranquility merges with idyllic greenery and understated elegance. Zehlendorf stands for an unpretentious country chic with an urban twist.

The established neighborhood is characterized by its high living quality and value. Approximately 50 percent of the old district consists of forest and water areas. Havel, Kleiner and Großer Wannsee, Schlachtensee, and Krumme Lanke are popular local recreation destinations. The relaxed lifestyle there has a special tradition. Since 1945, the U.S. Army has bestowed an American flair upon the district. To this day, the casual spirit of the “new continent” can be felt along 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 firmly established its status as the academic hub of the capital. In the neighborhood you will find everything needed for daily life: bakeries, a weekly market, organic food stores, yoga studios, and cultural offerings—from Kino Bali to the Brücke Museum in Grunewald, and international contemporary art at Haus am Waldsee. Sports and leisure enthusiasts will find traditional clubs, for example, in riding or tennis. Education also enjoys an excellent reputation in Zehlendorf. Parents appreciate the wide range of daycare centers and schools, with the John F. Kennedy School and the Leo Borchard Music School being particularly popular. With the lines of the Krumme Lanke U-Bahn station and the Zehlendorf S-Bahn station as well as several bus routes, an excellent public transport connection is guaranteed.
