Flat to rent 4+kk • 172 m² without real estateAm Orangeriepark Berlin Niederschönhausen Berlin 13156

This exclusive penthouse is part of an ensemble and borders the historic Pankow-Niederschönhausen Castle Park. The property originally belonged to Schloss Niederschönhausen, which Frederick II had expanded into a summer palace for Queen Elisabeth Christine. The ensemble, consisting of four smaller town villas, is located east of the former orangery in what used to be herb gardens. It directly adjoins the palace and the palace park.

The living area of the penthouse spans approximately 172 m² and is situated on the second floor of one of the four town villas. The apartment comprises 4.5 rooms, 2 bathrooms, a kitchen, and a utility room, all finished to a high standard. The living-dining area and the kitchen are designed with an open-plan concept. A high-quality Italian fitted kitchen with a cooktop on a central island and a breakfast bar is integrated. The apartment boasts a surrounding, south-facing roof terrace. An elevator provides convenient access from the underground garage and the ground floor to the apartment, which is designed to be barrier-free (apart from the terrace accesses). Two parking spaces for cars are available optionally (at €115 each). Additionally, there are optionally 2 storage rooms of 13 m² each (at €35 each). The communal heritage garden is available to residents. Pets are not permitted in this property.

Niederschönhausen in Pankow offers a balanced mix of tranquility and urban infrastructure. The connection to the city center is excellently ensured by the S/U-Bahn lines S2 and U2 as well as bus lines 107 and 150. Shopping facilities, schools, a hospital, and parks are located in the immediate vicinity.

The residential buildings of “Orangeriepark” directly border Schloss Niederschönhausen and its park. Originally, the orangery of the palace was established here. The residential buildings have their own small private park, and they are set amidst extensive surrounding greenery with numerous paths. The palace park right at the doorstep offers many kilometers of beautiful paths for walking or jogging. The public outdoor swimming pool Pankow adjoins the park.

The palace itself is surrounded by many villas that have been preserved to this day, for example on Majakowskiring, where the nomenklatura of the former GDR had their residences. With the founding of the GDR on October 7, 1949, Schloss Schönhausen was handed over from the Soviet Union to the GDR and served as the official seat of the President of the GDR, Wilhelm Pieck, from 1949 until 1960. The landscape architect Reinhold Lingner designed the inner palace garden as a cheerful, open garden in the typical style of the 1950s. The palace became the backdrop for the self-presentation of the GDR, where state guests were accommodated. After the political turnaround, the Two Plus Four Talks took place here, and Pankow became the namesake of Berlin’s most populous district, which is composed of the historically grown districts of Prenzlauer Berg, Pankow, and Weißensee.

The underfloor heating is operated with a geothermal system in combination with a gas heater and also provides a cooling function for the summer days. An open fireplace creates a cozy ambiance. The Italian designer kitchen with its central island is equipped with high-quality electrical appliances. The fixtures and tiles in the bathrooms have been particularly tastefully selected. All the floors throughout the rooms are laid with oak parquet. A ceiling height of 2.84 meters allows for the accommodation of tall cabinets. The windows are equipped with electronic shutters and timers. The terminals for the video intercom system, as well as the option for a high-speed internet connection, are integrated into a well-thought-out technical concept that includes LAN connections in most rooms.

In addition to the utility room, there are optionally 2 lockable storage rooms in the basement and 2 underground parking spaces available.
