The Villa - the most prominent villa in Budapest

Objektbeschreibung

The purchase of this splendid property represents an exceptional opportunity to acquire a detached villa in the most prominent part of Budapest, in a World Heritage Area in the Buda Castle with the best possible unobstructed panoramic views over the City of Budapest and the Danube. Its exposed highly visible location renders the property a true landmark on the Budapest panorama. The 19th century classic style villa was owned by a former Prime Minister of Hungary and was destroyed during WW2. The property was reconstructed to shell and core condition in the mid of 2000’ by the current owner, providing the new owner with the flexibility to shape this magnificent building into their own desired character. Not only the underworld, the ancient ruins and the fortress were revealed but the interior structure has also been fully updated. Internationally renowned architects Tadao Ando and the British interior designer Ilse Crawford assisted in designing a potential function as an event and art centre. Thus should the Villa be once fully completed, its rebirth would add the crown jewel to the Buda Castle, the top World Heritage site of Budapest. Due to the Villa’s prominent and prestige location, it can equally lend itself as a prestigious and elegant Residence, Headquarters or Embassy. The elegant and generous space design equally allows hosting large receptions and the administrative functions. The total gross area totals approx. 4,000 s.qm on 5 floors, including approx. 1,000 s.qm above ground and 2,700 underground and additional terraces of 900 sqm. Total site area measures of 2,444 sq meters with a steep slope towards east. Internal height varies between 2.80 and 6.00 meters.
