Historic Old Building Gem Multi Family House In The Berner Obstberg Quarter

This characterful multi-family house at Wattenwylweg 24 combines historic charm with a generous space offering and versatile development potential. The building, constructed in 1908, features approximately 270 m² of gross living space and is situated on a 488 m² plot in a desirable urban location. The semi-detached property showcases a classic facade, traditional shutters, and a distinctive pitched roof. Its period architecture harmoniously integrates into the established neighborhood, giving the house a unique presence. The special charm of the old building continues inside. High ceilings, classic proportions, and lovingly preserved details evoke the original construction period. Notably, the original herringbone parquet flooring lends the living areas an elegant and warm atmosphere. Decorative ceiling elements and various natural stone coverings emphasize the historic character and create a valuable foundation for a stylish renovation. The property is designed as a three-family house and spans multiple floors. In total, there are three residential units with various living, sleeping, and ancillary rooms available. The existing layout allows for versatile use – for example, as a multi-generational house, as an investment property, or as a spacious city house for a family. A consolidation or redesign of the units offers additional potential, subject to the necessary permits. The kitchens and bathrooms are mostly at an older standard and provide room for contemporary redesign. The technical installations can also be adapted to current requirements as part of a comprehensive modernization. Heat distribution is via radiators, while an oil heating system provides heat generation. The attic opens up further possibilities for individual uses and complements the generous space offering with additional areas. The existing ancillary and storage rooms also provide practical storage for the various residential units. A special highlight is the expansive garden. The established planting, lawn areas, and various sunny spots create a private green oasis in the middle of the city. Attractive opportunities for seating areas, play areas, or individual garden design arise here. The well-maintained residential neighborhood combines a pleasant, quiet living atmosphere with short distances to Bern’s city center. Shopping facilities, schools, public transport, and diverse leisure offerings are in close proximity and underscore the high quality of life in this urban location. A property with this original building substance, generous space offering, and a private garden is rarely available in this sought-after location. The combination of historic old building charm, versatile usage possibilities, and proximity to Bern’s city center makes this multi-family house an extraordinary opportunity in the Bern real estate market.
