Wilkommen! The best of Berlin

July 15th, 2009 by Sian Meades

In a couple of hours, I’m flying to Berlin. I’m very excited, so I thought I’d make this post all about that wonderful city. It boasts stunning architecture, a vast and interesting history and excellent and unusual shopping areas. It’s got everything.

Although I’m not planning to make a permanent move out there (I’m only going for a couple of days), having a nose at some of the properties on offer might just change my mind!

Grunewald

The area is surrounded by lakes and parks and it’s got excellent access to shopping areas and lively parts of the city. So you get to live in a peaceful area without losing any of the fun of city life.

The house itself has a whopping ten bedrooms, and it’ll set you back a cool £2.8 million.




Old Town

The area is always special, even though they’re always named the same. It means that every property is going to have history and character.

And this two-bedroom property is no exception. But the area itself is also stunning with picturesque timber homes and tiny streets.

Luckily, Berlin’s Old Town is still excellent value for money. This property is on offer for £164,986.



Wittelsbacher

The neighbourhood is very popular and there are some great attractions on your doorstep (including Berlin Zoo).

The property itself is just a one-bedroom, but it’s got to be one of the best-value apartments I’ve ever seen. It’s on the market for just £43,570. A Berlin bargain!
