This is my calm and cosy home hidden away in the middle of Berlin - A city shaped by history and creativity, Berlin blends grand landmarks with laid-back neighborhoods and a famously open, international spirit. You can wander past remnants of the Berlin Wall, explore world-class museums on Museum Island, and then end the day in a cozy café or a lively beer garden. Green parks, canals, and nearby lakes make it easy to slow down, while the food, art, and music scenes keep things exciting. Whether you’re into culture, history, or simply experiencing everyday life in a vibrant European capital, Berlin truly offers a bit of everything.
The apartment is 70m2 and has everything you need for a perfect stay:
• A comfortable bedroom with a queen-size bed and blackout curtains
• A living room with a big sofa, lots of greenery, dimmable lighting, daylight lamps for extra energy if needed, lots of books and a playstation
• A comfortable work space with spacious desk, wireless keyboard and mouse, ergonomic office chair
• A fully equipped kitchen with a large fridge, dishwasher, oven, coffee maker, sparkling water machine, kitchen machine, washing machine and a cosy breakfast table for two
• A modern bathroom with bathtub and shower
My home is:
• Suitable for 2 adults
• Located in the heart of lively Friedrichshain, just steps from Boxhagener Platz & Warschauer Straße — surrounded by cafés, bars, restaurants, and plenty to explore
• Close to public transport connections in all directions
• Located in a quiet back-building, offering calm and privacy despite the bustling neighbourhood.
• Also the home of a very sweet cat who will be your friendly companion. Only reply if you're willing to take care of him. I'd be happy to take care of your pet as well.
I love living here and if you're looking for a place that is cosy, calm & feels like home, I invite you warmly for a swap!
