Oranienburger Straße, Berlin Mitte: 5–6 Room Apartment in a Listed Period Building with Many Historical Details 10117 Berlin

Oranienburger Straße, Berlin Mitte: 5–6 Room Apartment in a Listed Period Building with Many Historical Details The listed residential and commercial building was constructed in 1886 by merchant Philipp Wertheim and stands prominently on the corner of Oranienburger Straße and Tucholskystraße. While the façade no longer features stucco ornamentation, behind the solid, recently refurbished wooden entrance door with glass elements lies a true dream for any lover of historic buildings. The elaborately restored staircase and entrance hall reflect the grandeur of the surrounding listed period buildings along Oranienburger Straße and Tucholskystraße. Carefully preserved details such as wrought-iron handrails, sisal carpeting in the stairwell, original stucco elements, and the historic color scheme of the entrance create beautiful accents. The corner building comprises 14 units, a mix of residential and commercial spaces. Prominent neighboring landmarks like the Postfuhramt, the New Synagogue, the Heckmannhöfe, and Museum Island underline the historic significance of the location. The apartment itself is located on the third floor and features a spacious, classic layout. Three interconnecting rooms, linked by double doors, face Tucholskystraße and offer an appealing view of the vibrant neighborhood to the east. The generous ceiling height and large windows create a bright, airy atmosphere throughout. The current dining area opens via a wide folding door into the “Berliner Zimmer,” which could easily be converted into an open-plan kitchen and living area if desired. The current separate kitchen is slightly set back and accessible via a second hallway from the Berliner Zimmer. From here, a door leads into a practical pantry, as well as to a second entrance via the former servants' staircase. This area could potentially be converted into a spacious bedroom with dressing area. The floor plan is further complemented by a daylight bathroom with bathtub and a separate guest WC. The apartment impresses with numerous original period features: high ceilings, double-sash windows, valuable original panel parquet and wooden floorboards. The windows have recently been refurbished, and the entire building, including façade and stairwell, has been extensively and carefully renovated in accordance with preservation guidelines. The combination of well-preserved historical elements and a classic floor plan makes this apartment a rare offering.
