Penthouse Apartment with Atelier Character, Two Outdoor Areas in Berlin-Friedrichshain

This penthouse apartment in Berlin-Friedrichshain offers approximately 91 m² of living space, 2.5 rooms, and two outdoor areas (a covered west terrace and an east balcony) with a bright living atmosphere. It is located on the top floor above the 4th story of a multi-family building without an elevator and features an open view over the neighborhood as well as the directly adjacent Hausburgpark.

The building was originally constructed around 1920; the attic conversion took place in 1997. The apartment was completely modernized in 2015/2016 and freshly renovated in August 2026. It is available for immediate occupancy, making it suitable for both owner-occupiers and investors seeking a vacant apartment in the sought-after Friedrichshain location.

The floor plan is clearly structured and pleasantly open for use. The living area forms the spatial center of the apartment and is characterized by skylights, wooden elements, and warm solid wood parquet flooring. The separate, centrally located kitchen opens to the hall and has access to an outdoor area. The spacious hall with an electrically opening light dome offers more than just a connecting space and can also be used as a dining area, workspace, or a comfortable transitional area.

Two outdoor areas extend living outdoors: a larger covered outdoor area with a view over the courtyard and Alex, as well as another balcony facing east. This creates different usage possibilities – from enjoying breakfast in the morning sun to having a sheltered retreat with a view over Friedrichshain.

The private sleeping area is compact and quietly arranged and also has outdoor access. The daylight bathroom was renewed during the modernization and is designed to be both functional and timeless.

The apartment is aimed at singles, couples, owner-occupiers, and value-oriented investors who appreciate the attic character, light, outdoor spaces, and an immediate handover. At the same time, the framework conditions are to be realistically considered: the apartment is located on the top floor without an elevator.

The apartment is situated in a sought-after area of Berlin-Friedrichshain, in the vicinity of Kochhannstraße / Hausburgstraße, directly adjacent to Hausburgpark. The Hausburgviertel combines urban living with a well-established neighborhood character, short distances, and a pleasant mix of residential tranquility, proximity to the city, and a vibrant Friedrichshain environment.

Particularly striking is the open view towards the green open space of Hausburgstraße. The penthouse location creates a rare combination of brightness, spaciousness, and urban panorama. The nearby Hausburgpark complements the living environment with green, play, and recreation areas and provides a pleasant contrast to the dense inner-city environment.

Cafés, restaurants, bakeries, shopping options, and everyday service facilities are located in the immediate area. The broader Friedrichshain environment with its traditional neighborhood structures, small shops, culinary offers, and cultural attractions is also easily accessible.

Public transport connections are very good. Tram, bus, S-Bahn, and U-Bahn connections in the extended area allow for quick access to the surrounding districts as well as central Berlin destinations. Alexanderplatz, Volkspark Friedrichshain, the Samariterkiez/Frankfurter Allee area, and other central parts of the eastern city center are also well connected.

For leisure, sports, and recreation, the location offers an attractive mix of urban and green options. In addition to Hausburgpark, there is Volkspark Friedrichshain, sports facilities, swimming, fitness, yoga, and wellness offers in easily reachable proximity. Schools, daycares, and other daily facilities complement the family- and everyday-friendly infrastructure.

The location is therefore ideal for people who value Friedrichshain as an urban residential area and also appreciate light, outdoor access, good connections, and a well-established neighborhood setting.

Light, High Ceilings, and Warm Materials:

The apartment was comprehensively modernized in 2015/2016 and most recently freshly renovated. Its equipment combines bright surfaces, warm materials, and functional details with the special character of a penthouse apartment.

The living area is marked by oak real wood parquet, smooth-finished walls, visible wooden elements, and skylights. The illumination provided by the VELUX skylights creates a bright, open living atmosphere. The existing skylights feature double-insulated glass; shading elements and additional interior insulation are also present.

The kitchen is designed as a separate yet centrally connected area. The fitted kitchen, introduced as part of the modernization, offers a bright, functional kitchen area with a working surface, counter solution, and access to an outdoor area. The kitchen area is tiled.

The daylight bathroom was also renewed as part of the modernization. It features a bathtub with a glass shower partition, toilet, space for a washing machine, as well as a washbasin with an integrated cabinet underneath. Bright large-format wall tiles, a dark mosaic band, gray floor tiles, and Villeroy & Boch ceramics characterize its timeless design.

A special feature is the approximately 16.67 m² large hall. It serves not only as a central access area but can also be used as a dining hall, workspace, or comfortable transition area. The electrically opening light dome supplies the room with daylight and supports air circulation.

Other features include partially renewed electrical installations, high-quality wood/wood decorative skirting boards with concealed cable routing capabilities, a basement storage room, and two outdoor areas. The larger covered outdoor area offers an extensive view over Friedrichshain; the additional balcony is particularly suitable for enjoying the morning sun.

During the modernization work in the attic, measures for summer heat and sun protection were implemented. Certified insulation materials were used, positively affecting the living climate and sound insulation.

Heating and hot water are provided by a central gas heating system of the condominium association; the heating and hot water system was renewed in 2025.

The focus is not solely on the price per square meter, but rather on the combination of the Friedrichshain location, foreseeable availability, two outdoor areas, and the attic character.

For singles, couples, and owner-occupiers the apartment offers urban living with light, outdoor space, and an unobstructed, unique view over Berlin. For investors, it offers attractive yield potential due to its near-vacant handover, desirable Friedrichshain location, and market-related rental prospects. The apartment is available free of tenants following the termination of the previous leases and has been freshly renovated. Viewings are possible by individual arrangement. Additional documents such as the floor plan, energy certificate, financial plan, condominium fee information, resolution documents, and supplementary details regarding the condominium association can be provided to qualified interested parties in the next step.

The statutory energy certificate relates to the entire building. The offered penthouse apartment was modernized in 2015/2016; its energy performance may therefore deviate from the building average due to apartment-specific measures. The heating and hot water system were renewed in 2025. The new central gas heating system is not yet reflected in the current energy certificate.

Within the condominium association, an external roof renovation is being planned. According to current information, implementation is expected for early 2027.

The apartment is offered directly by the owner. The information provided is based on the available documents and has been compiled with care. The object, condominium association, and contract documents available for inspection during the purchase evaluation remain decisive.
