Historic carriage house overlooking Havel

About this house

At the highest point of Werder Island, you’ll find this unique 18th-century coach house, which has been beautifully renovated in keeping with its neoclassical architecture. The old, reused bricks tell the story of the building’s former life as a barracks for disabled veterans, while the large windows let in plenty of light and offer a breathtaking view of the Havel River.

The three separate apartments each offer a unique experience. The ground floor has direct access to the garden; the first floor features a charming studio; and the open-concept space in the attic boasts high ceilings and panoramic windows. All units feature their own outdoor area, whether a terrace or a balcony.

The private garden extends all the way to the water, complete with a swimming dock, winter terraces, and well-manicured lawns. The historic Belvedere, a listed landmark, sits atop one of the two vineyards and provides a majestic backdrop for your stay. The sauna and the expansive grounds are shared with other guests when the property is occupied, but thanks to their spaciousness, they always offer plenty of room for your privacy.

From this historic gem, you’re just 10 minutes from Potsdam and 30 minutes from Berlin. But you don’t have to go anywhere—the area around Werder invites you to take walks through fruit orchards, bike rides along the river, and explorations of the old town with its galleries and cozy cafés.

Contrary to the information below, the visitor’s tax is already included in the price in this case.
