The Area:

The apartment is in a top location in one of Neukoellns hip & most desirable areas - the Schillerkiez. Cobbled and leafy streets centered around a local church give this area a quiet residential feel. Since the closing of historic Berlin Tempelhof airport in 2008, the area has enjoyed an influx of families and young creative types from all over the world. More bars, cafes, galleries and shops are sprouting up weekly and the atmosphere on the streets is relaxed and multi-cultural. On your door step you will find a weekly organic food market with the large Oriental Market by beautiful Landwehr canal only a quick 5 min tube ride away. Plenty of flea markets in the area too. The airport has been turned into Europe's largest urban park and is an example of great multi space planning. You can jog, kite surf, hire bikes/ segways, build a vegetable plot in the community garden, BBQ or even enjoy year round exhibitions or festivals. There are baseball and basketball courts, beer gardens and history centers. It also doubles up as the site for biannual Berlin Fashion Week and its Bread & Butter trade show. Future plans for the wide open space are equally exciting; with a new National Library, office spaces in the old terminal building, a lake, rock climbing opportunities, the International Garden Exhibition and much more, this is a space to be watched. Walk down the runway & catch the sunset over the city landscape. Aside from being 50m away from the park, the location also delivers on all other aspects of great city living. The vibrant high streets of Hermannstrasse as well as Karl Marx Strasse are only a short 5min walk away and offer a range of shopping, dining and other cultural opportunities. The closest tube station is Boddinstrasse (5min walk) which has great links to all other central areas of Berlin as well as Berlin International airport (25min). Additionally, Hasenheide Park, a natural woodland park adjacent to the airport park offers another great outdoors experience with various summer activities like festivals and open air cinema screenings. The open air Columbia swimming pool (5min walk) has, after extensive renovation just been re-opened and is the perfect place to cool of during Berlins summer heat.
