99 m² is a pretty good starting point – and, in this case, an ideal one for you.
Built in 2009 and located in Gerasdorf’s Oberlisse, this apartment leaves you with plenty of room to make it your own. A generous living area, three additional rooms, two small terraces and a floor plan that doesn’t always play by the rules of the rectangle. Add plenty of natural light, surprisingly many windows and a few details you only discover when you take a closer look.
From the entrance hall, you head right into the living area – and there is plenty of room here. For a large dining table, a comfortable sofa arrangement and even for rearranging the furniture without having to reinvent the entire apartment.
The open-plan kitchen is set slightly back to the side. It is part of the living space without taking over. Plenty of worktop space, lots of storage and well equipped – a kitchen with room for more than just your morning coffee.
And if you ever feel the living room could use a little more fire: the chimney connection is, of course, already there. After those hot summer days, though, you will still find yourself looking forward to that cosy warmth on chilly winter evenings.
Directly from the living area, you can step outside onto the first of the two terraces, each measuring around 8 m². Sheltered and not enormous, but with enough room for a table and a couple of chairs – perfect for morning coffee or an evening meal outdoors. Facing east, it brings plenty of light into the apartment, especially during the first hours of the day.
Back inside, the apartment continues towards the more private rear section. This is where you will find the three additional rooms – and where the flexibility of the floor plan really becomes apparent.
Because none of them looks quite like the other. Some walls take a slightly different angle, windows are positioned on different sides, and one of the rooms has no fewer than three of them. The result is a collection of interesting spaces that all have one thing in common: they are wonderfully bright.
What you make of them is entirely up to you. A bedroom, children’s room, guest room, home office – or perhaps a dedicated space for something that otherwise always seems to happen somewhere in between. With three additional rooms, you can afford that little luxury.
One of them also has direct access to the second terrace. So even the more private rear section of the apartment has its own little spot outdoors.
The bathroom is located here as well and features a large shower. The WC is separate and conveniently located in the entrance hall. Parquet flooring runs throughout the living and sleeping areas, providing a warm and welcoming foundation.
What you won’t really notice in the photos – or even on your first walk-through – is one of the apartment’s more subtle features: the ventilation system. It continuously supplies fresh air and helps maintain a pleasant indoor climate – in summer as well as winter. It may not be the first thing you talk about when buying an apartment, but it is certainly one of those things you quickly come to appreciate once you live there.
The fact that the apartment is on the ground floor brings another advantage: getting outside is wonderfully easy. Especially for dog owners, that can make everyday life considerably more convenient. Attach the leash – and off you go. No stairs, no lift and no long journey through the stairwell.
The location also works nicely in your favour. The apartment is quietly situated in Oberlisse, yet never far from everything you need. Public transport connections are very good, and Vienna is also just a short drive away. Peace and quiet at home, while still being able to get where you need to go quickly – sometimes you simply don’t want to compromise.
And if you enjoy apartment living but still have a soft spot for gardening, you only need to look across the street.
Another plot of land belonging to the residential complex is available to residents for urban gardening. The designated beds are there for planting, watering and, naturally, harvesting. Tomatoes, herbs, strawberries, courgettes – depending on how far your gardening ambitions extend.
A little bit of garden after all. Just without the lawn mowing.
The practical details have also been taken care of. The apartment comes with its own private storage unit in the basement, while bicycles can be stored in the large communal bike room. And for cars, two extra-wide garage parking spaces are available for separate purchase.
In the end, it is precisely these details that make the almost 99 m² more than simply four rooms. There is space to live, space to work, space for family or guests, two little outdoor spaces – and even a place where your own tomatoes can grow in summer.
Room to make it your own – inside and out.
