Described as the "Palazzo of High Finance", the magnificent "Schinckel Villa"
was the talk of the town at the end of the 19th century. The present owner, who bought the property in 1991,
had the villa completely and extensively renovated and refitted.

Villa in Hamburg-Harvestehude
In 1891/1892, the famous architect Martin Haller built this grand villa in the classical style for Max Schinckel, a banker and leader of industry. The villa is located in Hamburg's elegant Harvestehude district (formerly Herwardeshude), between Grindelberg and the outer section of Lake Alster. There are numerous excellent restaurants and stylish shops in the immediate vicinity. Tennis fans have the unbeatable opportunity of watching the German Open ATP tournaments virtually from their front window. The area is very well serviced by public transport, and Lake Alster is only a few steps away. Those more in favour of the "inner life" can celebrate banquets and balls in the "Schinckel Villa" just like at the turn of century. The listed building, which has been divided into several flats, has a total of 620 sqm and a 2,000 sqm garden, certainly offers sufficient space for sumptuous functions and glittering parties.
This house is for sale.
