Historic elegance meets cutting-edge home decor

On Zurichberg, you live at a reasonable distance from the hustle and bustle of the valley. A fresh breeze blows over from the nearby forest and after a clear night you can still experience the morning dew. At the same time, you can quickly dive into the big city life of downtown Zurich at any time.

In one of the best residential areas, the “Golden Triangle”, the elegant “Villa Sonnenberg” is perched on a slope, just a few steps away from the forest and vineyards. It is a classic villa from the late Belle Epoque with extravagant furnishings, many original details and a park-like garden that stretches to the next block. From the villa, you can enjoy a breathtaking view of the Limmat city, Lake Zurich and the alpine peaks.

The luxurious villa was built in 1911-1912 on behalf of a successful publisher based on plans by star architects Otto Pfleghard and Max Häfeli. After an eventful history, the property was expanded in line with its historic buildings in 2017-2019 without sacrificing contemporary comfort.

“Villa Sonnenberg” can be easily reached by glass lift from the cathedral-like underground car park. Or you can reach the long entrance to the villa from the hillside street, which opens up all rooms on the ground floor, which is elevated above the garden.

The entire viewing area is occupied by the magnificent sequence of rooms comprising the dining room, living room and living room. In the living room, you can relax on elegant herringbone parquet, while the salon has a distinctive coffered ceiling.

In the large dining room with a bay window, people like to meet up for a delicious banquet and socialize, which can continue at any time on the spacious terrace with a spectacular view. It is adjoined by a spacious eat-in kitchen, whose high-quality equipment leaves nothing to be desired. And in the far south, in the annex, you reach a glamorous winter garden, where you can enjoy the view of the fantastic garden in peace.

In the spacious room in the middle of the upper floor, an opulent library can be set up, where you can let your thoughts run wild by the fireplace. The bay window in the south could be designed as a music or media room, while the room in the northwest could be used as a study with an inspiring viewing balcony. The extension opens up an elongated room with a bathroom and exposed roof beams, which is perfect as a quiet master bedroom.

Finally, on the top floor of the villa, there are several children's and guest rooms, each with their own unique character. And on the lower garden floor, in addition to the wine cellar and utility rooms, there are three other large living rooms for guests or employees.

In an atmosphere of luxury and space, you can relax wonderfully after a busy day. While the cirrus clouds in the sky light up in the last rays of sunshine, the lights are already turning on down in the city. Further back, Lake Zurich shimmers mysteriously in the evening light. The “Villa Sonnenberg” is the ideal retreat in the vibrant Swiss metropolis.
