This charming, listed townhouse is nestled in the historic Gern villa colony and presents itself in one of the most beautiful avenues of this sought-after and noble district. The façade of the mid-terrace house features an arched window, wooden shutters and a charming historic wooden porch. The front door is also original. The extremely charming design is the work of the then highly renowned architects Jakob Heilmann and Max Littmann, who founded the Gerner villa colony around 1892 and played a key role in shaping the irretrievable flair of this district.
The premises are spread over three residential floors and approx. 147 m². There are five rooms, an eat-in kitchen, a dressing room, two bathrooms and a guest WC. The basement houses utility and storage areas. Behind the house is a small but beautiful west-facing garden, which has the potential to be a real idyll. In addition to the irretrievable location and impressive old building ceiling heights of up to almost three meters, some original elements such as the staircase, box-type windows and coffered doors with historic brass fittings deserve special mention.
The townhouse has been continuously modernized over the years. The result is an extremely inviting family home in the heart of the Gern villa colony, which offers scope for individual upgrades.
Böcklinstrasse forms the historic core of the Gerner villa colony. From 1892, Heilmann und Littmann, one of Germany's leading construction companies, developed this picturesque new quarter and built the first townhouses here. At that time, the quarter was still just outside the city gates and offered a wealthy, educated clientele a residential environment with the character of a garden city. Heilmann und Littmann engaged renowned architects for the designs and plans. Great emphasis was placed on individual house types and diverse architecture, predominantly in country house style. Heilmann and Littmann were also active in Altbogenhausen, where the Prinzregententheater was built under their direction alongside stately townhouses. In 1899, the Gern villa colony was incorporated into the city of Munich. As Gern was spared major destruction during the Second World War and numerous houses in the surrounding area have been extensively restored in recent years, this highly desirable residential area has almost the same charm as when it was built.
All stores for daily needs are within easy walking distance. There are various daycare centers (including bilingual ones) to choose from. The renowned Nymphenburg private schools and the Maria Ward schools (each with grammar and secondary school branches) are within walking and cycling distance.
