Dating back to 1905, this former industrial building in the trendy neighbourhood of Wedding is an ode to Berlin’s past. Huge, warehouse-sized windows let in tonnes of natural light, illuminating the hand-crafted wood accents and collection of glassware and ceramics made by ultra-local artisans. High ceilings give an immense sense of space, and the view from the windows looks out over Berlin. Sustainability is the watchword here, with most aspects made from reclaimed wood and vintage furniture throughout. Underfloor heating keeps the chill of winter away and there’s a roof terrace for sunny summer days. You’re in the heart of Berlin’s Wedding neighbourhood here, which was once rough-and-ready and is now an ever-changing canvas of trendy cafés, galleries, parks and street markets. The S+U Wedding u-bahn station is just a two-minute walk away which can have you in the heart of Berlin in around ten minutes too. Home truths: *Curated by a group of local artists and creators, the artworks on the walls will consistently change *The apartment is on the sixth floor with excellent views, and there is a lift in the building *There is no parking space with this apartment but the u-bahn is a two-minute walk away *There is a laptop-friendly desk but it is in the main bedroom rather than a separate office
