A Renaissance villa along the Alster, in Hambourg

In Hamburg, along the banks of the Alster where steam boats cruise, rowboats and kayaks are a sign of elegance. This district, surrounded by huge green spaces is known for sheltering private villas of high standing, in a healthy and peaceful environment. It attracts families seeking an outdoors style of life, while being close to the shops of the metropolis.

And amongst the posh villas talked about in the neighborhood, this one was built at the end of the 19th century, in a Renaissance neo-baroque style of "Wilhelminian" conception. It dominates a brilliantly upkept park of 2 200 m², while the pure and modern added Art Deco elements highlight the "Hanseatic charm" of its very original architecture.
