In Perfect Harmony

A 1922 villa reimagined: comprehensive restoration meets contemporary design

Nestled in Lichterfelde, the sought-after south-western Berlin district within the Steglitz-Zehlendorf borough, stands this extraordinary villa—recently restored to its finest by Warsaw-based architect Edward Dylawerski of Nux Architects. The result is a masterwork that masterfully bridges historical heritage and contemporary residential design, weaving together creative individuality, meticulous craftsmanship, and architectural refinement.

Set on a generous 1,737 m² plot, this 1922 villa captivates from the moment you enter. The ground floor showcases an impressive open-plan layout, seamlessly combining the living and dining areas. Floor-to-ceiling windows flood the space with natural light, dissolving the boundary between interior and exterior while framing spectacular garden views. The living quarters—complete with a designer fireplace, home cinema, and library—feature motorized blinds that provide both comfort and privacy at the touch of a button.

The first floor hosts a children's bedroom with ensuite shower, alongside the master suite—featuring a dressing room and spa-like bathroom. Here, a freestanding tub, generous shower, vanity area, and integrated sauna are enhanced by sophisticated lighting and petrol-blue accents. A sunny southwest-facing terrace extends the living experience outdoors, offering panoramic garden views. The second floor provides two additional rooms, each climate-controlled with generous skylights flooding the spaces with natural light. Meranti wood windows with thermal glazing, bespoke joinery, and custom wardrobes establish a refined, functional aesthetic throughout. Continuous bamboo parquet flooring adds warmth and timeless elegance. The fully developed basement offers abundant storage and flexible space—perfect for a wine cellar, hobby studio, or laundry suite.

The outdoor experience centers on a stunning 136 m² main terrace, enclosed by frameless glass railings and anchored by a pergola, barbecue station, lounge area, and Jacuzzi installation. A second terrace in the garden, outfitted with an XXL grill, beckons for entertaining and relaxation. Inside and out, every detail reflects uncompromising quality and design: bespoke built-ins, curated artworks, designer lighting and doors, Lacobel glass surfaces, and state-of-the-art security systems elevate the living experience. The park-like grounds accommodate up to four vehicles within an electrically operated gate, while manicured lawns, mature trees, a decorative fountain, and ambient lighting establish a serene sanctuary. The property's technical infrastructure—including radiant floor heating, climate control, video intercom, integrated smoke and heat management, and comprehensive alarm systems—ensures modern comfort and convenience.
