Take this chance to live in this wonderful property! Dinner with friends, a literacy circle, a musical performance – happening in the comforts of your home: Star architect David Chipperfield has managed to revive a piece of the 19th century "salon life“ with Palais Varnhagen by creating salon apartments with spacious presentation areas and an interior reflecting this intention, with ceiling-high double-wing doors, beautiful panel parquet flooring and airy ceilings rising over three meters. At the reception the concierge welcomes residents and visitors, assisting with queries or assignments at any time. While salon life can blossom in the living and dining area, arranged with communicative seating, a simple partitioning preserves the resident’s sense of privacy. The spacious bedroom comes with a luxury double bed (180 x 200) and a small work/study desk on the window side. A built-in wardrobe offers plenty of room for storage. The kitchen is kept in warm colours and the high-quality built-in appliances provide for a user-friendly experience. There is an induction cooker, oven, fridge, freezer, dishwasher and dining table.
