_International Property of the Week: Sleek city living at Upside Berlin

About the area

With a new law significantly reducing buying costs in Germany recently implemented, there's never been a better time to invest in Berlin. A thriving metropolis that has benefited from an economic boom and is consistently voted as having one of the world's highest standards of living and quality of life, Berlin is now viewed as one of the most lucrative investment hotspots in Europe. 

With its turbulent history and internationally recognised landmarks such as the graffitied Berlin Wall and Brandenburg Gate, Berlin has always held its place firmly on the map among keen historians. Nowadays, the city is as much recognised for its creative cultural flair as its history, with the world-renowned Berlin Opera and Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra taking centre stage, while its electric art scene, exciting museums and thriving nightlife lure tourists in their hoards every year, not to mention make Berlin the city that approximately 3.5 million people proudly call home. 

Upside Berlin  

Overlooking the thriving thrum of Germany's capital, Upside Berlin offers 22 floors of prestigious new homes in one of the city's most exciting new quarters. 

In full view of the River Spree, between Ostbahnhof (Berlin East Station) and the Oberbaum Bridge, an entirely new location is emerging. This is where Berlin’s most exciting boroughs – Mitte, Friedrichshain and Kreuzberg – meet and form a truly unique combination of living, working and nightlife. Just a few minutes walk from the famous East Side Gallery and with the headquarters and creative hubs of big players such as Mercedes-Benz, Immobilienscout24 and Zalando just next door, this area is an emerging hotspot for international professionals.

Designed by renowned architectural firm Nöfer Architekten, the development will consist of two high-rise buildings: one at 95 meters and one at 88 meters. The smaller Max Tower will provide apartments for sale, while the larger Moritz Tower will offer accommodation to rent.

The sleek contemporary architecture and high quality of the buildings, which boast current certification standards (German Energy-Saving Ordinance 2016), will be the benchmark for the future. 

Apartments will benefit from a wealth of amenities and features, including three-metre-high ceilings, natural light, underfloor heating, balconies and river views. 

Meanwhile, communal amenities include a security and concierge service, underground car park, swimming pool, generous communal spaces and a residents' roof terrace and garden.
