Wien, Austria

Vienna has been voted one of the most liveable cities in the world - justifiably so. We particularly appreciate the location of our apartment, offering the best of both worlds: Set within a quiet and green neigbourhood, it is in walking distance to the "Wienerwald" (Vienna Woods) with its many hiking routes and scenic views. At the same time, Vienna city centre is only a 20 minutes' tram ride away.

Our spacious, bright and quiet apartment is located in the 18th district, in a very green neigbourhood. The building from 1931 was desigend by Ferdinand Glaser, the same architect who designed the Central Bank of the Republic of Austria in the early 1920s, in similar style and with references to Jugendstil.

The apartment is on the 2nd (= top) floor. Please note, currently there is no elevator.

Our apartment comprises
- entrance hall
- a spacious living/dining room with open kitchen and direct access to
- a sunny spaciaous balcony, facing south-east;
- 3 bedrooms
-- 1 master bedroom (double bed 180x200 cm) with en-suite bathroom,
-- bedroom 2 (sofa bed 140x200 cm), and
-- bedroom 3 (loft bed 90x200 cm);
- 2 bathrooms
-- 1 bathroom (en-suite to the master bedroom) with bath, double-basins and toilet,
-- 1 bathroom with shower and single wash basin, next to children's bedrooms,
-- 1 extra toilet.

There is also a shared garden, offering a safe area for kids to play. Our neighbours are friendly and helpful.
