Budapest VI. kerület, Szív utca Zu verkaufen ziegelwohnung

We are pleased to offer this unique duplex apartment for sale on Szív Street in Budapest’s VI District, combining the timeless charm of a classic early-20th-century building with the character and comfort of a modern penthouse-style home.

Built in 1910, the building features classic late Art Nouveau architecture. It is in good exterior condition, while the interior, including its characteristic semicircular gallery corridor, is in very good condition. The apartment is situated on the fourth floor. Although the building currently has no elevator, plans for its installation are in place.

Created in 2005 as part of an extension, the apartment offers 102 m² of usable living space across two internal levels, complemented by a private 14 m² roof terrace. The distinctive layout features two bedrooms, one of which has a studio-style arrangement, and two bathrooms. The en-suite bathroom has a shower, while the second, separate bathroom features a bathtub. Both bathrooms have windows, providing natural light and ventilation.

The apartment enjoys open street views and an impressive panorama, combining the elegant, Parisian-style cityscape with views towards the Citadel, which is particularly striking in the evening when illuminated. The two levels have different orientations: the upper floor faces southwest, while the lower floor faces northeast.

The approximately 30 m² open-plan living room and kitchen form the heart of the home. A large, three-part arched window floods the space with natural daylight throughout the day, further enhanced by direct sunlight filtering down from the upper level through the staircase opening.

The upper floor features a private bedroom with direct access to the roof terrace. With a generous ceiling height of 3.2 metres, two overhead Velux skylights on one side and full-width windows on the other, the room is exceptionally bright and airy, offering a peaceful retreat above the city. The internal staircase, constructed from a combination of iron and wood, adds a distinctive architectural touch and connects the two levels.

As the entire apartment was created during the 2005 rooftop extension, its electrical, gas and plumbing systems date from that period. The property has previously undergone renovation, including the replacement of its wiring. More recent improvements include fresh interior paintwork completed two years ago and renovation of the gas-fired central heating boiler six months ago. An energy performance certificate issued in recent months gives the apartment a rating of C.

The apartment is equipped with Gree air-conditioning. The larger bathroom is served by the gas-fired boiler, while the smaller bathroom, adjoining the studio-style bedroom, has a 120-litre electric water heater, providing an alternative hot-water supply.

The property benefits from excellent public transport connections and convenient access to the city’s amenities. On-street parking may be available through the relevant residential parking permit arrangements, subject to local regulations, while additional parking spaces can also be rented in neighbouring buildings.

With its generous living space, distinctive duplex layout, abundant natural light, private roof terrace and captivating panoramic views, this apartment offers a rare combination of architectural character and contemporary comfort in the heart of Budapest.
