Here is the English translation:

The broad facade of the old building—constructed around 1900—with its friendly, bright yellow color and two tiled entrances already makes Hermannstraße 56/57 an inviting address. The stairwells exude a typical Art Nouveau flair. Their rich, original decoration of vintage tiles, stucco, wooden railings, and balustrades was lovingly restored and preserved during a comprehensive renovation a few years ago. Even the unusually spacious inner courtyard, featuring an old chestnut tree at its center, was updated, redesigned, and landscaped. The roofs have been converted into living space, and parts of the utility lines as well as a main gas line were brought up to date—benefiting the apartment on offer.

Inside the two-room apartment, which spans approximately 55 square meters, a love for detail that unites quality, aesthetics, and durability is evident. Old wooden floorboards, high ceilings, and 60×60 bathroom tiles in the light-flooded shower room perfectly highlight the wonderful proportions of this south-facing historic apartment. All these elements combine to create a truly special place—a real home further distinguished by the harmonious community within the building.

Just as popular among Berliners as it is with newcomers, Schillerkiez is undoubtedly one of the “places to be” in the trendy Neukölln district. Originally built around 1900, the neighborhood was intended to attract affluent citizens into what was then a working-class area. Accordingly, the Schillerpromenade was established in a representative style, lined with beautiful Art Nouveau buildings.

In the meantime, the area has evolved into one of the most sought-after locations for new urban living concepts—as seen in the international mix of people—and the variety of shops creates a colorful, appealing overall picture. From excellent restaurants known for their innovative cuisine to cafés, ice cream parlors, and small boutiques that creatively combine personal passion with regional products and sustainability, the neighborhood offers it all. Daily needs are superbly met by a diverse range of local shops. Also unbeatable is the immediate proximity to Tempelhofer Feld. The former airfield is perfect for clearing your head, jogging, skating, or flying a kite. Hermannstraße 56 is located just a 10-minute walk from Tempelhofer Feld, and connections to public transport—with U-Bahn line 8 and various bus lines—ensure excellent access to other districts.
