Green luxury retreat: Where sustainable timber architecture meets state-of-the-art comfort

The detached house is located in the idyllic, green district of Alt-Hohenschönhausen, known for its peaceful, natural residential atmosphere and family-friendly neighborhood. Directly outside the front door lies the picturesque Fauler See Nature Reserve. One of Berlin’s oldest protected areas, it offers an absolute island of tranquility in the heart of the capital, with abundant birdlife and dense woodland. The popular lake ensemble of Obersee and Orankesee is also just a short walk away. A much-loved local meeting place is the traditional Orankesee Terraces, whose beer garden and restaurant offer a relaxed atmosphere right by the water. The architecturally significant Mies van der Rohe House on Obersee provides a cultural highlight, attracting architecture enthusiasts and regularly hosting small, exquisite art exhibitions. The historic Hohenschönhausen water tower also helps define the character of this charming neighborhood. Within a few minutes’ walk, you can reach Konrad-Wolf-Straße and the Hansa Center, which together form the backbone of local amenities. Here you will find numerous shops for everyday needs, supermarkets, medical practices, and carefully run independent retailers such as the local “OrankeBuch” bookstore. Despite this green oasis, public transport connections are excellent: the “Am Faulen See” tram stop (line 27) is almost around the corner and provides, among other connections, rapid access to Friedrichsfelde Ost S-Bahn station. Nearby MetroTram lines (such as the M4 and M5) also provide excellent connections to the BVG network, taking you quickly and directly, without changing trains, to central Berlin, the Ringbahn, and Alexanderplatz.
