Hilde-Ephraim-Strasse 51

, Grunewald

On a quiet side street, this cubist townhouse stands as a composed statement of modern architecture. The structure, rendered in plaster and wood and freshly refinished two years ago, feels both restrained and welcoming. Expansive windows open the house to the garden, filling the interior with light that moves softly across oak floors, white surfaces and subtle shadows.

On the ground floor, the Nolte kitchen blends seamlessly into the dining and living areas, creating a generous, light-filled space. The island with its Miele induction cooktop and downdraft extractor, raised oven, dishwasher and black Blanco sink anchors the room with precision. Oak floorboards, ceiling heating and electric sunshades provide quiet, even warmth.

Upstairs, two calm bedrooms and a bathroom with tub and shower feature Marazzi tiles, Duravit ceramics and Hansgrohe fittings. A second shower room on the garden level and a guest WC complete the layout. The lower floor, with its own entrance, can serve as a private suite for guests, parents or an au pair.

Technically refined, the house is powered by an efficient heat pump with solar support (energy class A). Custom cabinetry, an alarm system and a low-maintenance garden with irrigation, fountain and multiple levels add to its sense of ease. An SUV-sized parking space with direct access to the house and a bicycle garage complete the property. Set in the green heart of Grunewald, Hilde-Ephraim-Strasse offers a rare balance of nature and city, close to lakes, forests, schools and cafes.
