This apartment is perfect for you if you’re looking for a home with a large, comfortable terrace: a place where you wake up to greenery, work with a view of the forest and spend your weekends outdoors, while the city is still within easy reach.
The first step inside will take your breath away. The living room rises through two floors, with a gallery above, and a glass wall running from floor to ceiling fills it with natural light. A designer glass chandelier hangs above the sofa, built-in seating runs along the windows, and a bio-fireplace in the corner is waiting for chilly evenings. Wooden floors and a staircase with “floating” steps and a glass balustrade give the whole space a clean yet cosy feel. The apartment was fully renovated two years ago and is let fully furnished, so all you need to bring is your suitcases.
The kitchen flows straight into the living area, so whoever is cooking is never left out. A built-in Miele oven and steam oven, AEG appliances and a filtered-water tap will delight anyone who loves to cook, and the dining table right next to it is made for family breakfasts and long Sunday lunches.
On the same floor there is a bedroom with its own bathroom. It works as a children’s room, a guest room or a quiet study, whatever your family needs right now. With a walk-in shower, large-format marble-effect tiles and a backlit mirror, the bathroom feels like a good hotel. There is also a separate WC.
Upstairs is the private part of the home. On the gallery above the living room you’ll find a work corner with a library and a view through the glass wall straight into the forest. With fibre-optic internet, even the most demanding video calls are no problem, and you may never want to leave this home office. A few steps further is the main bedroom, with an upholstered wall panel behind the bed, a dressing table, a walk-in wardrobe and a view of the greenery. Its bathroom, with a double washbasin, is partly glazed towards the living room and can be screened off with a curtain whenever you like, a striking architectural detail.
And then there’s the terrace: 52 m² of furnished, south-east-facing outdoor space where you can enjoy your morning coffee in the sun. There’s even a pull-up bar, so your morning workout can happen right at home, with a view of the trees. With a view like this, motivation comes easily. In the evening, the terrace turns into the perfect spot for drinks with friends or a glass of wine after work.
A smart home system takes care of your comfort: it switches on the right lighting for the time of day and cools the rooms before you get home. There’s also air conditioning, exterior blinds and a home cinema. Your car stays in the underground garage, where two parking spaces with EV charging are waiting for you. A storage cellar is included.
The building, completed in 2011, is part of the Azalea residential project. It is a solidly built structure of masonry and cast-in-place reinforced concrete, with an insulated façade and a green roof. Heating and hot water come from the building’s central gas boiler room, so there is no boiler or gas appliance inside the apartment. Heat and water consumption are measured by the apartment’s own meters.
The building sits in a gated complex set into the green hillside of the Smetanka Nature Park. Mezitraťová Street lies in a quiet valley between Smetanka Hill and Vinice. Meadows, ponds and the meandering Rokytka stream are all around, and a cycle route runs right along the street, so cycling, morning runs and pushchair walks start at your doorstep. Malešice Park, Třešňovka Hill and the Malešice Botanical Garden are also close by.
You can reach the city centre in about 15 minutes by car or by public transport. The Na Lukách bus stop is just a 3-minute walk from the building, with buses to metro line B, and from Praha-Libeň railway station you’re at the Main Station in a few minutes.
This is a home for a family with a child, for a couple who want space and style, and for anyone looking for peaceful living close to nature with quick access to the city, whether Prague has always been your home or is just becoming one.
The apartment is available from 1 December, so you can move in before Christmas. I’ll be happy to show it to you; just call or send a message.
