Classical bourgeois flat - Budapest Palace district

A true rarity in the Palace district! This is a grand, classical bourgeois flat, meticulously renovated and restored with exceptional craftsmanship and artistic sensitivity. It features protected interior surfaces under applied arts heritage protection. Its uniqueness is underscored by the fact that it was featured in an applied arts publication over 100 years ago. The flat was originally envisioned by one of the era’s renowned set designers, István Szironthai Lhotka. It was created in the 1910s for a famous doctor, who lived in one half of the first-floor flat and ran his medical practice in the other. The flat is fully walkable around and has two separate entrances. Spanning 221 square meters, it includes a reception area, three separate salons (including a ladies’ salon), a cigar room, an interior balcony, a study, two bedrooms, a separate dining room and kitchen, two bathrooms, and additional utility spaces. The renovation and restoration began in the 2000s and lasted seven years. The current owner has preserved the architectural features and furnishings of the era in their original form. Highlights of the flat include (not exhaustive): An original, built-in upright giraffe piano A wall panel in the study: a reproduction of a masterpiece by a world-renowned painter Six restored fireplaces made of hammered metal and artificial stone Mahogany, linden, oak, and pear wood furniture and wall paneling Fabric wall coverings, ornate plaster ceilings, and hammered metal lighting An interior reception balcony Despite its historical character, the flat offers all the comforts of modern living: a well-designed layout, a fully equipped kitchen with Franke built-in appliances, and gas boiler central heating. Security is ensured by an alarm system and reinforced entrance gate. Parking is available in a nearby underground garage.
