Discount in Karlshorst’s Prinzen Quarter – A Touch of Arts & Crafts Style

This carriage house, built in 1910, was originally used as stables for the horses of the residents of the manor house at the front. In 2004, the carriage house underwent extensive modernization and renovation. The exterior walls were fitted with internal insulation, wooden windows were installed, and the sanitary facilities—including the guest WC on the ground floor and the tub and shower bathroom on the upper floor—were modernized. From the entrance, a hallway leads into the spacious living/dining area, which, with its asymmetrical shape and area of approx. 54 m², conveys a loft-like character and sense of spaciousness. The original window openings in the kitchen and dining area, along with smaller attractive details such as narrow window slits (formerly used for ventilation) and tie rings (rings for tethering horses), hint at the building’s historic origins. Floor-to-ceiling windows opening onto the approx. 39 m² sun terrace (south-facing) ensure optimal natural light in the living area. They also provide access to the terrace, which features planters, sun loungers and a parasol. The preserved wooden staircase, fitted with a new steel handrail, leads to the upper floor and its spacious hallway, from which all four rooms are accessed. This floor has ceiling heights of up to approx. 3.45 m in places and is illuminated by natural daylight through roof windows. The bathroom, with a shower and bathtub, also benefits from natural light. A designated exclusive-use area directly in front of the carriage house includes a car parking space. An additional parking space can be rented. The carriage house forms part of the harmonious condominium owners’ association (WEG) at Treskowallee 124, comprising six units. Administration is shared with the condominium owners’ association of the neighboring building at Treskowallee 126. It has been agreed that the latter’s recreational area with bamboo garden may be used as an outdoor workspace, for barbecues, or for playing table tennis and badminton.
