LAKE, MOUNTAIN, AND TOWN — WITHIN WALKING DISTANCE.
Zell am See is one of the most well-known places in the Salzburg region. The town combines a well-preserved historic center with a good selection of shops, dining, and cultural offerings, as well as a wide range of recreational activities around the lake and mountains. Directly above the town lies the Schmittenhöhe, Zell am See’s local mountain — a vast ski area in winter and a starting point for hikes with lake views in summer. Nearby are Kaprun and the Kitzsteinhorn glacier ski area, making the region attractive year-round for residents and visitors alike.
Sonnberg is one of the most sought-after residential areas in the town. Above the center, mostly villas and detached houses with gardens are found; the area is quiet, green, and exclusively residential. Here, you live secluded yet close to the town center and the lake — a rare combination.
Well-located plots on Sonnberg are limited and rarely come on the market. This gives the location high value retention: supply remains scarce, demand steady. For buyers, this means a long-term secure location for a primary residence — in an established and prestigious environment.
New Development Project [hidden information] THOUGHT FROM THE MOUNTAIN.
Above Zell am See’s center, on Sonnberg, the project [hidden information] is being developed: 4 residential units, one address like no other. Lake Zell lies at your feet, surrounded by mountains on the horizon: Schmittenhöhe behind and peaks stretching as far as the eye can see in every direction. Here, you don’t just have a mountain view — you live right in the middle of it. This is not just another residential building but a deliberately exclusive address: only four residences share this location, each with unobstructed views over the lake and mountains. The old town, gondola, and lake promenade are still reachable within minutes. There are three spacious condominiums and one standalone sky residence in total.
The local architectural firm Watzek + Paulitsch, based on Sonnbergstraße in Zell am See, designed [hidden information]. They are known for their exceptional standard, which they call ”Experience Architecture.” The idea for the project came directly on-site: the building volumes step down the slope so that each level opens undisturbed to the south toward the lake and mountain scenery.
Vertical slats, dark metal and wood accents, and a green roof give the ensemble a calm, timeless signature that will still feel natural years from now.
PENTHOUSE RESIDENCE — SECOND UPPER FLOOR. Top 03 · 2nd Upper Floor · approx. 168.92 m²
At the top, the view knows no bounds. The spacious 34.07 m² south-facing balcony extends the living space outdoors, creating an exclusive retreat with impressive openness. At the rear, the open-plan living, dining, and kitchen area of 48.05 m² forms the heart of the apartment. Generosity, openness, and a flowing spatial feel combine cooking, enjoyment, and togetherness into a special living experience.
The master bedroom, measuring 21.21 m², surprises with a very special feature: a 5 m² terrace embedded into the hillside, accessible directly from the bedroom. Accessible only from here, it creates an almost private outdoor space — intimate, exceptional, and dedicated entirely to personal retreat. Perfect for a quiet morning coffee. A walk-in closet of 12.42 m² and a bathroom of 19.43 m² complete the suite: the bathroom includes a private sauna — included in the purchase price.
Two additional rooms, two more bathrooms, and a separate guest toilet complement the private living area. A spacious utility room and a pantry adjacent to the kitchen provide practical storage and retreat solutions, seamlessly integrating into daily life.
Two underground parking spaces — one equipped for an electric charging station — can be purchased additionally. They are not included in the purchase price.
FEATURES & TECHNOLOGY:
- Heating: The project is heated via a heat pump with deep drilling (geothermal energy), with heat distributed through underfloor heating. Each bathroom has an electric towel warmer.
- Floors: Solid wood parquet in living, sleeping areas, and kitchen, designed as country-style planks.
- High-quality porcelain stoneware from Imola Ceramica.
- Doors: Designed according to the architectural concept with smooth door panels flush with wood paneling up to the ceiling for a visually floor-to-ceiling effect at 2.40 m door height.
- Sanitary & surfaces: Fixtures and accessories by DORNBRACHT.

Families who appreciate spacious living on one level — and want the lake not just in sight but right at their doorstep. The residences are designed and usable as primary homes.
