A bright apartment on the 2nd floor of the historic townhouse U Modré boty in the magical Haštal quarter, just a few minutes' walk from the Old Town Square.
The house dates from the 15th century and forms part of the Prague Historic Reserve, inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List. It has undergone a sensitive restoration with careful attention to preserving its original character – exposed stone masonry, a stone staircase with cast iron balusters, and stone paving in the passageway all bear witness to its centuries-long history. The intimate inner courtyard with its tree has also been restored; it conceals a bicycle and pram storage room and offers a second exit through a carriage gate into the quiet alley Za Haštalem, one of the most hidden medieval corners of the Old Town.
Before you even step inside, the gallery corridor stops you in your tracks. Spacious, quiet, overlooking the courtyard – exactly the kind of place people remember. Put a chair here. Outdoor seating, yet completely private. Beyond it, a separate room with a courtyard-facing window and a built-in wardrobe – a home office, a guest room, whatever you need.
The large living room with open-plan kitchen follows, featuring two generous box windows with deep splayed embrasures overlooking the ancient Haštalská street, one of the most authentically preserved medieval streets in Prague. The kitchen is custom-built and includes an integrated fridge-freezer, dishwasher, electric oven and hob. The floors are original parquet, fully restored in 2024.
From the living room you enter the bedroom, where generous box windows with deep embrasures continue their dialogue with the historic street, along with an en-suite bathroom with a walk-in shower, WC and washing machine. The apartment includes its own cellar storage unit of 1.5 m².
The building is remarkably dry and free of any damp – a rare quality for a structure of this age and depth. Monthly costs – maintenance fund and electricity deposit – come to under 5,000 CZK.
An exceptional location and an unrepeatable historic atmosphere make this apartment both an attractive investment and an ideal home for lovers of old Prague – with restaurants, cafés, galleries and theatres on your doorstep, the metro within easy reach, and the gardens of the Convent of St Agnes just around the corner.
