Tenement House Foksal 13/15: apartments in a luxury townhouse

 

 

Vilea Property Boutique presents an exceptional investment – a tenement house at Foksal 13/15, considered one of the most expensive properties in Warsaw. Located on the backside of Nowy Świat, the monumental tenement exudes luxury and history, a testament to the top-notch restored architecture of the late 19th century.

 

 

 

History and revitalization

The tenements at Foksal 13/15, designed by Arthur Otto Spitzbarth, were built in 1895-98 as prestigious residences for the wealthy bourgeoisie. Their history was marked by changes – from Art Nouveau remodeling by Jan Wedel, to plans by the Communist government to demolish them, to their miraculous rescue and acquisition by developer Ghelamco, which restored the buildings to their former glory. The revitalization project, which took fifteen years to complete, with four years of intensive construction work, was a complete success, restoring the townhouses to their original late 19th century appearance, based on historic photos and designs.

 

 

 

Architecture and luxurious interiors

Of note are the beautifully restored decorative facades, elegant stucco, rosettes and stylish tiled stoves. Unique paintings have also been restored in the townhouses, including paintings of angels found during the work, which now adorn one of the staircases. The work, conducted under the direction of Anna Rostkowska of the Proart studio, can be safely compared to the conservation of a work of art. The baroque facade and numerous architectural details, including carved figures of athletes and eagles, were also reconstructed based on a single surviving photograph.

In addition, residents have access to a wellness & spa area, gym, sauna, Jacuzzi and massage room, as well as underground parking with 65 parking spaces. Also unique is the opportunity to use two guest rooms on the second floor, offering hotel standard.

 

 

 

Luxury apartments

A total of 55 luxury apartments ranging in size from 45 to 227 square meters have been built in the two townhouses. Apartments on the second floor impress with a height of more than four meters, polychromes, rosettes and restored stucco, adding uniqueness and prestige to the interiors.
