Live where history meets modernity!
In one of Leipzig’s most sought-after and family-friendly neighborhoods, a true residential gem awaits you: an exclusive 175 m² apartment in a historic building on the first floor of a magnificent, freestanding Wilhelminian-style building. This exceptional five-room apartment combines the incomparable charm of bygone eras with the comforts of modern living.
The property itself is an architectural gem—a Wilhelminian-style building lovingly restored in 1998 that blends the charm of bygone eras with modern living standards. The high ceilings, classic stucco elements, and generous room proportions create an atmosphere of timeless elegance, while modern amenities ensure the highest level of comfort.
The heart of this exceptional apartment is the spacious entry hall—a grand foyer currently used as a stylish living and dining area. Original wooden built-ins and shelves from the Wilhelminian era, along with authentic coffered ceilings, bring the spirit of that time back to life and lend the apartment a distinctive, timeless character.

The other lakes in the southern Leipzig lake district also invite you to linger and enjoy recreational activities.

The current tenants have a statutory right of first refusal because they were already living in the unit before the building was converted into condominiums. This right allows them to purchase the apartment under the same terms as a third party in the event of a sale.
Furthermore, in the event of termination for personal use, a statutory notice period of 36 months applies. This combination ensures planning security for both parties—while the existing tenancy underscores the building’s stability and high quality of living.
