About this property

Modern, Architect-Designed Penthouse Loft With 2 Outdoor Roof Terraces

This modern, 55 square meter (550 square ft.) penthouse loft with 2 outdoor terraces, built on top of a late 19th-century apartment building in Vienna’s 15th, or “Fünfhaus” district, is owned and designed by an American, Harvard-educated architect.

Located on a quiet street in Vienna’s most multicultural district, the apartment is perfect for those looking for a unique place to stay in an interesting, diverse, up-and-coming neighborhood, removed from the typical downtown tourist areas.

Not to suggest that the apartment is in the middle of nowhere: it is only a 20-minute walk to the Schönbrunn Palace; a 3-Minute walk to the underground U3 subway station, bus, tram & taxi stand; a 10-15-Minute Subway ride to all major attractions and historical sites in the heart of the city, as well as in the thriving, fashionable 7th district (St. Stephan’s Cathedral, Vienna State Opera House, Ringstrasse, Mariahilferstrasse, Spittelberg, Museumsquartier); and a 5-Minute subway ride to the Westbahnof train station with regional / international train and airport bus connections.

This sleek, state-of-the-art loft faces a quiet courtyard and includes a large, beautifully designed bathroom with a toilet and shower, spacious living room with a fully-equipped kitchen and HDTV, and a cozy bedroom separated from the living room with sliding doors.

And to “top” it off: both living room and bedroom have direct access through large glass doors to a secluded apartment-level terrace, which is connected to another upper roof terrace with lounge chairs for relaxing in the sun and enjoying the beautiful view of Vienna!

The apartment is ideal for romantic getaways for couples, vacations for small families, as well as business trips for executives.

The property was very comfortable and quiet. Well designed, and perfect for short stay in Vienna. The hosts were also very amenable and friendly. They obviously take pride in their property.

Extremely close to ubahn, bakers and supermarket. One quick train to the centre of Vienna. We enjoyed the roof terrace, well equipped kitchen and use of a washing machine.

Great location and property
100m from Johnstraße underground on line 3. Great location. Some good restaurants locally, but be sure to book! I’d recommend Das Augustine. Everything was perfect except that the property was a little too warm. The heating control is linked to the owners adjacent property so we were limited in our ability to turn down the heating. That point aside.....everything was excellent.

Excellent property, highly recommended
We had a great stay here. Monica & Eric are the perfect hosts; available if you have any questions but respectful of your privacy. The apartment is beautifully laid out and a perfect base to explore Vienna. My husband is in a wheelchair and was able to manoeuvre himself independently. In fact the bathroom is huge! Parking is an issue as in any capital city, but Monica & Eric suggested 2 car parks - one nearby and the other further out and consequently cheaper. The nearest metro station is literally just up the road and it takes approx. 10 minutes to get into central Vienna.

About the host

Hosted by Monika Makowicka

Host profile image
I (the owner) am an American-born, Harvard-educated architect. I grew up in New York City, and have been living and working in Vienna for over 20 years. My firm, which I founded with 2 Austrian partners, specializes in building luxury penthouse apartments in Vienna.

Why they chose this property

As an architect and part-time developer, I fell in love with Vienna because of its fantastic architecture, culture, and urban amenities. I personally and specifically hand-picked this property (at that time, an empty attic space) in Vienna’s 15th district, which is Vienna's most multicultural neighborhood, and reminds me of the diverse ethnic areas of New York City where I grew up during my youth. The area is quickly being developed, but at the same time maintains an authentic feel not found in other touristic parts of the city. The street is very safe, and the neighbors are friendly. Also, the excellent public transportation connections (subway, tram), which are just a 2-minute walk away, make it an ideal place to reside.

What makes this property unique

My tenant, the beautiful and friendly Monika, rents, manages and administrates the apartment and lives next door on the same level with her young son, Adrian, in the adjacent penthouse loft. She is a native of Vienna, and will take great care of you. And I'm quite sure you'll enjoy relaxing on the spacious outdoor terrace spaces after a long day exploring this beautiful city!
