I just wanted to let you know we had a great time in Berlin last weekend and enjoyed staying in your lovely apartment. It was very comfortable and homely, well equipped and in a vibrant and interesting area of Berlin. We would love to stay there again and will recommend it to friends and family.

About the owner
I live and work in Windhoek. I bought this property to have a base in Europe. I have chosen Berlin because it is vibrant, full of energy, very individual, still embrace a rather hedonistic approach to life considering it is one of the main capital cities of Europe. The sub-culture, the art-scene- poor but sexy, a village feel yet with all the fantastic facilities that a city can offer. Most of all, Berlin changes its face with every moving second, yet, Berlin remains Berlin deep at heart. Where better place than the heart of the former Eastern Part of Berlin, Prenslauerberg? East West fusion manifests itself when you least expect. Mostly subtle but from time to time, as plain as the nose on one's face. The sub-culture is usually only perceivable after a fair stay in Berlin.
Year purchased: 2009
Why the owner chose an apartment in this location
Helmholtzplazt, a small village park right in Berlin Mitte, amalgamate with historical old refurbished buildings, shape the moods for the changing seasons. Wonderful atmosphere, especially with the numerous cafes, bistros, restaurants, bars and clubs. All small little shops that defies globalisation. Fresh green market stalls every weekends, various flea-markets location to explore, bio-shops, individual designers hand-bags, shoes, clothings- sewn on the premise itself! The old GDR hardware stall, my fave heavy-metal bakery- a mug of freshly brewed coffee and a marzipan croissant, relax in the sun and watch the world go by. The old boy who has lived all his life just round the corner, who knows every residents, still selling his handcrafted wood work since the age of time.
Unique benefits of the property
A fantastic cafe just downstairs - perfect for those mornings when one wants to do nothing. Convenience stores just across the park - very convenient for those unexpected emergencies supplies. Rather small neighbourhood within the block - more privacy compared to most in this part of popular Prensberg area. Retro trendy yet tastefully casual bars, small but cozy - fantastic music selections - still using albums. Restaurants, bistros - all flavours you wish to choose from - upmarket or just a quick bite, all just a short walk away. 32 bits internet access.
Life motto: One life, live it well!
