Zurich District 6 is one of the city's most traditional and sought-after residential districts — an area in which urban quality of life, historic buildings and closeness to nature are combined in a particularly harmonious way. Characterized by magnificent Art Nouveau and Wilhelminian style villas, quiet avenues and an established neighborhood structure, this charming neighborhood is only a few minutes away from the city center — and at the same time in close proximity to extensive local recreation areas such as Zurichberg, Irchelpark or Käferberg.

Volkmarstraße itself is a quiet, tree-lined neighborhood street — an address with class and character. Here you can enjoy the luxury of short distances: shopping facilities, charming cafés, renowned restaurants and tram and bus lines are just a few minutes' walk away. The University of Zurich, ETH, the University Hospital as well as numerous cultural institutions and green spaces are in the immediate vicinity. The Zurichberg with its walking trails, viewpoints and woodlands is just a stone's throw away — the perfect balance between city life and natural idyll.

Built in 1903, the apartment building is one of the most stylish and lovingly preserved contemporary witnesses of Art Nouveau in Zurich. It comprises five rented residential units and has been maintained in recent years with great care and high aesthetic standards. Original stylistic elements — artfully decorated façade parts, intricate stucco work, tall windows with historic framing and a magnificent staircase — let the spirit of the Belle Époque be felt in every corner.

This property is a collector's property with stable return potential, which, thanks to its combination of location, condition and architectural substance, is ideal both as a capital investment and as a multi-generation house or for combining living and working under one roof.

The property is spread over several floors and offers a total of five spacious apartments with classic floor plans, lots of light and historic details. The units have been rented out, maintained and partially modernized — the original character has always been retained.

The top floor has particular potential: The space used today as a screed can be expanded — subject to a building law review — into an elegant maisonette apartment with a roof terrace and a wonderful view of the distance. This creates a unique opportunity for exclusive living above Zurich's rooftops.

‍

The house has been continuously maintained over the years, stylishly maintained and occasionally technically modernized. Today, it presents itself as a solid, characterful property with an authentic appearance and long-term value retention. For investors, this provides a stable investment property in one of Zurich's most sought-after districts. For private buyers, a stylish place to live and work — and for architecture enthusiasts, a real piece of architectural gem.

“1903” offers the rare opportunity to purchase a historically valuable apartment building in the sought-after district 6 — in a prime location, with lots of substance, style and development potential. Whether as part of a high-quality real estate portfolio, as an elegant multi-generation house, or for private use with letting — this property is more than an investment: it is a place with history, character and a future.
