Flat for sale 4+1 • 78 m² without real estateGrube 4 Hamburg Blankenese Hamburg 22587

Between the winding paths of the Blankenese Staircase Quarter, on the same floor of a small multi-family building dating from around 1910, this spacious 4-room apartment comes into being. Despite its quiet location, it naturally blends into the vibrant fabric of the neighborhood. The building comprises only five residential units and therefore maintains a pleasantly private, almost house-like character.

The apartment will be renovated in 2025/26 and is currently in the shell construction phase or being converted. The planned execution is inspired in design, materials, and architectural stance by the already completed 2-room apartment in the building (see photos). At the same time, this early construction state offers the opportunity to incorporate the future owners’ individual wishes – particularly regarding surfaces, tile sizes, sanitary fixtures, kitchen design, and finishing details.

The floor plan is clear and functional: four well-proportioned rooms allow for flexible use as a family apartment, spacious living with a home office, or a combination of living and working spaces. The living and dining area forms the communicative center of the apartment and can – as with the 2-room apartment – be connected openly with the kitchen. Generous sightlines already create a bright, flowing sense of space in the planning.

Design-wise, the orientation is equally clear: quiet, high-quality materials are planned, such as oak parquet flooring, underfloor heating, and a restrained, timeless color palette. Lighting, doors, and built-in elements can be interpreted in a modern way – in line with the existing apartment – without overshadowing the character of the historic building. The goal is an “all-in-one” design that conveys quality without dominating the space.

The bathroom is planned to be modern and functional, with a spacious shower, clear lines, and natural light where the layout permits. Here too, the possibility exists to choose materials and fixtures individually to suit personal needs.

The entire building is in a well-maintained condition; the roof, pipes, and structural supports have been or will be renewed. In this way, an apartment is created that combines the charm of a historic building with the comfort of a contemporary new construction – quiet, thoughtful, and developed with much architectural sensitivity.

This extraordinary property is located in the historic Blankenese Staircase Quarter, one of Hamburg’s most desirable and well-known districts. The picturesque quarter is famous far beyond its local boundaries for its winding alleys, romantic captain’s houses, and dreamy slopes along the Elbe. Along the slopes, stylish villas and maritime architecture line up, contributing to the unique charm of the district.

The fantastic sightlines to the capricious Elbe—with its ever-changing colors and plays of light that give each hour a different appearance—create an incomparable living atmosphere. Wonderful parks, direct access to the water and beach, as well as an exclusive neighborhood, further characterize this location.

The center of Blankenese, with its traditional weekly market, varied shopping opportunities, charming boutiques, and a broad range of gastronomic offerings, is reachable on foot within a few minutes. Cafés along the Elbe and restaurants with water views make the quarter a popular meeting point for Blankenese society. Proximity to the ferry and the S-Bahn also ensures convenient access to downtown Hamburg.

IMPORTANT:

The apartment is not yet completely finished; therefore, the photos shown are of the already completed neighboring apartment and are provided as examples.
