The settlement with four multi-family houses was created by the renowned architectural firm Atelier 5 and is classified as worthy of protection. The "Brutalism" applied here is a modern architectural style characterized by the use of exposed concrete, simple geometric shapes, and usually rough structuring of the buildings. Individual floor plans, private terraces, and separate entrances create privacy and a living feeling like in a single-family house.
The southwest-facing attic apartment is located on the 3rd and 4th floors of the property. It has a cellar, two parking spaces in the garage, and a share in the communal indoor pool.
On the 3rd floor, the bedrooms are arranged, with a bathroom. You can reach the upper floor via the spiral staircase or the lift. The 4th floor has more than double the area, with a spacious living area, kitchen, bathroom, and an additional room. Two terraces offer an extremely high level of privacy.
The apartment and the entire settlement are well maintained and impress with their unique charm.
