Ideal for families or as a retirement home (elevator) in the city

This completely renovated patrician townhouse with a spacious city garden is located in a prime location in the Paulusquartier (Bachletten) district. A jewel from the heyday of Art Nouveau in Basel's most prestigious residential district, not far from St. Paul's Church, it is now looking for a new owner who is as discerning as they are deserving. Excellent connections to the tram, bus, SBB train station, and Euroairport are perfect. Basel's green lungs, such as Schützenmattpark and the zoo, are also just a stone's throw away. Your children or grandchildren will love exploring this park.

Parking is available within the neighborhood. An antique passenger elevator from the year of construction, which is currently out of service, is available and can be restored with the help of the historic preservation office or replaced with a new modern installation.

Built in 1908, this townhouse retains the unique charm of Art Nouveau, with many typical stylistic elements. Many of these elements are original and a delight for any real estate connoisseur. This attractive property has been perfectly maintained by the previous owner and was extensively renovated in 2019, including the outdoor areas. The symbiosis between original features and high-quality modern materials is perfectly achieved and now offers the highest quality of living with contemporary comfort.

The property is now in excellent, near-original condition.

Originally designed by the renowned architect Georg Stamm (1866–1950), this historic building is part of one of Basel's most beautiful and architecturally striking rows of houses. Its unique façade is sure to captivate any discerning real estate enthusiast.

All of them are listed buildings in Basel and, with their prestigious exteriors, provide a wonderful backdrop to what is probably the most beautiful church in Switzerland, St. Paul's Church. The heart of this family home is the three-part living room, which extends across the entire floor and features a high-quality open-plan fitted kitchen, a cooking island, and a sunny dining room with large windows facing the garden, which can be opened completely.

You will love the old herringbone parquet floors and beautiful stucco work. On this floor, the spacious entrance hall with reception area also has a guest WC. The ground floor offers direct access to the large, long and extremely romantic city garden. This is easy to maintain and boasts magnificent trees. An efficient irrigation system, which is very practical during longer absences, is also available. A place of relaxation for the whole family or for garden parties with friends. For ball games, the Schützenmattpark, just a few minutes' walk away, is a playground paradise for children.

The beautifully curved oak staircase with a wonderful stairwell leads from the garden level to the first floor. Here, in addition to the master bedroom with dressing room and en-suite bathroom, there is another large bedroom with a terrace and a second modern en-suite bathroom.

The second floor, the so-called children's floor, boasts three bedrooms and another large bathroom with natural light, bathtub, shower, double sink, and toilet.

The already insulated attic, which could be converted if more space is required, will delight you with another highlight. Here on the roof is an approx. 10 sqm eagle's nest terrace with a sensational view over the entire neighborhood.In total, the house has three terraces, 1x ground floor terrace (garden), 1st floor bedroom terrace and 1x roof top terrace.

The basement offers a large laundry room with access to the garden, a fitness room, wine cellar, and additional storage space.

Immoline's conclusion:

This Art Nouveau villa offers the highest standard of living and, especially in combination with the beautiful city garden, is an absolute rarity. Fair value for money for a perfectly renovated Art Nouveau villa. The opportunity to purchase such a property usually only arises every 10-15 years.
