Classic Grand Bourgeois Villa on Kis-Svábhegy – Panoramic Views of Buda Castle and a 1,368 m² Mature Garden

Located in one of the most prestigious and historic parts of Kis-Svábhegy, at the meeting point of three streets, this classic grand bourgeois villa was built in 1926. Set on a 1,368 m² corner plot with mature trees, the property is almost completely screened from the outside world – offering exceptional privacy, greenery and tranquillity in the heart of Budapest.

Uninterrupted Views of Buda Castle

The upper floor and rooftop terrace enjoy unobstructed panoramic views across the Buda Castle District, including Matthias Church, Fisherman’s Bastion, the Mary Magdalene Tower, the Hungarian National Archives and the Military History Museum.

At sunset, the entire façade of the Castle District is beautifully illuminated, with the distinctive golden Zsolnay-tiled roof of the Hungarian National Archives particularly striking. The panorama is a permanent feature of the property and cannot be built out or obstructed.

The Villa

The building underwent a comprehensive renovation in 1995–96, including reinforced foundations, new reinforced-concrete floor slabs, a new roof structure and insulation, as well as complete mechanical and electrical upgrades. The roof covering was renewed in 2018.

The reinforced-concrete column structure allows the interior spaces to be reconfigured with considerable freedom, without major structural intervention.

The property comprises three legally separate condominium units and is physically divided into two independent residential units, each with its own private entrance.

Upper duplex apartment: 277 m² + 33 m² of terraces
Generous, gallery-style interiors with ceiling heights of up to 4.8 metres, a bespoke internal staircase, rooftop terrace and panoramic views of Buda Castle create a truly distinctive sense of space.

Lower independent apartment: 122 m²
With its own entrance, conservatory, veranda and approximately 500–600 m² of exclusive garden use. Currently configured as a cooking school, it is equally suited to multi-generational living, guest accommodation or independent rental.

The Plot and Parking

The 1,368 m² corner plot is bordered by Goldmark Károly Street, Csaba Street and Határőr Road. The property includes a total of 76.65 m² of enclosed garage space: one two-car and one single-car underground garage, with potential for additional parking spaces.

The surrounding neighbourhood is distinguished by historic villas, embassies, mature greenery and exceptional tranquillity. Fény Street Market and Budagyöngye Shopping Centre are 5–6 minutes away by car, while Budapest city centre can be reached within approximately 15–20 minutes.

Legal and Technical Background

The property is unencumbered and legally settled, with a single owner. A final retention and occupancy permit was issued on 13 August 2025.

The property is not subject to heritage or local historic protection.

Energy rating: C. The villa is equipped with a Viessmann gas boiler and four split air-conditioning units.

Where History Meets the Future

Several original elements of the villa’s 1926 interiors – including furniture and chandeliers – have been preserved and remain in usable condition.

The upper two floors primarily require aesthetic updating, while the structural and technical foundations of the building are well established. The property therefore offers the opportunity to create a completely personalised interior without the need for major structural works.

The combination of three separate condominium units, two independent residences, generous representative spaces, uninterrupted views and a mature, private garden opens up a wide range of possibilities – from an elegant family home or multi-generational residence to a prestigious private or corporate headquarters, or diplomatic use.

A rare Budapest villa combining historic character, permanent panoramic views and exceptional potential for contemporary transformation.
