Living spaces for individuals

Since the development of Harvestehude, living directly on Harvestehuder Weg on the Alster has arguably been the greatest privilege in Hamburg. Where the beautiful ‘Villa Sophia’ of Consul Reimers probably once stood, five villas now occupy the front row of the spacious grounds: the Alster villas. With living spaces of up to 400 square metres, they offer plenty of room for a life of the highest standard. Their residents enjoy an unrivalled view of the Alster. At the same time, despite the prominence of this location, their privacy is preserved by skilful planning.

The two park villas at the heart of the Sophienterrassen development offer the perfect retreat for discerning residents who appreciate being close to nature as well as the culture of the urban environment. They are harmoniously embedded in the park and garden facilities of the neighbourhood, but are situated higher than the Alster villas and therefore offer outstanding views of the Outer Alster in some cases. With living spaces of up to 350 square metres and exquisite furnishings, the residences of the park villas leave nothing to be desired, even for the most demanding of customers.

Townhouses were very popular with the British nobility as a second home in the city. But the upper middle classes in Harvestehude also recognised the advantages of this urban house format. At the Sophienterrassen, the idea of living house next to house has been revived in a modern form. With living spaces of between 200 and 350 square metres, the rooms are spread over several floors, and on the ground floor each house has its own separate garden area. This makes the townhouses in the Sophienterrassen particularly suitable as a place to live for families.

The listed, three-wing Sophienpalais with its imposing entrance portal has many facets. Architecturally, it has been transformed into a kind of modern city palace. Inside and on the sunny garden side, the former military building has been given an impressive lightness. The lounge for residents, as well as the residences themselves, impress with their sense of style, elegance and creativity, which have transformed this former military building from the merely powerful to the truly beautiful. A concierge, the heart and soul of the building, ensures a high level of comfort by taking care of all the residents' needs.
