Frankfurt, Germany: A 265 M² Penthouse Where Every Detail Was Designed, Not Chosen

Some homes are bought. This one was composed. Set in a quiet cul-de-sac on the green banks of the River Nidda, this 265 m² penthouse with 6.5 rooms occupies the entire upper level of an exclusive four-unit residence in Frankfurt-Eschersheim — conceived by a renowned Wiesbaden architect and developed by an owner who is himself a professional in the field. The result is an apartment without compromise, where first-class materials meet a sophisticated designer sensibility in every square metre.

Living at Architectural-Magazine Level

The heart of the residence is an expansive open living and dining area with 2.60 m ceilings, large-format designer tiles, and contemporary WANDPROFI concrete-effect walls — including a sculptural feature wall framing an exclusive corner fireplace with an upward-opening glass sliding door. A freestanding spiral staircase of rolled steel sheet with solid wood treads, 2.2 m in diameter, rises through the space as a genuine architectural statement. In the master bedroom, genuine wood parquet by Swiss manufacturer Bauwerk. Throughout, extra-high 2.14 m flush-fitting interior doors and 5.1 surround-sound wiring in the living room. Nothing here is standard.

A Kitchen Built Around Craftsmanship

The open designer kitchen is fitted with premium branded appliances throughout: a 90 cm induction hob, an oven with steam function and warming drawer, and a No-Frost freezer. The left-hand run features worktops and splashback in exclusive Veined Baroque quartz; the right-hand run is crafted as a single seamless stainless-steel element combining worktop, splashback and sink. A door opens directly onto a sunny balcony with frameless safety-glass railing, framed by mature trees.

The Rooftop Terrace

The panoramic rooftop terrace is the property’s signature. Generously proportioned and finished in splinter-free, slip-resistant Kovalex WPC decking, it offers a covered barbecue and lounge area with indirect lighting, a permanent sun canopy, and a full outdoor kitchen with a premium Briol Chef built-in gas barbecue and gas hob. Exclusive planters define the space. On clear summer evenings, it becomes a private terrace under the stars — rare in any city, exceptional in Frankfurt.

Master Suite & Bathrooms

A separate master suite comprises an en-suite bathroom with a large bathtub and walk-in shower, an exclusive vanity unit, and a 6.5 m² walk-in dressing area finished in bamboo. The residence offers two full bathrooms, each with bathtub and shower, plus two guest WCs, natural daylight in the main bathroom, large illuminated built-in mirrors, and selected fittings from Japanese manufacturer TOTO.

Location & Practicalities

Move-in is planned for autumn 2026, and viewings can be arranged at short notice.
