Elegant apartment in Possenhofen Castle. With private lake access.

Set in Possenhofen Castle, nestled within a private park spanning over three hectares—a place steeped in romance and history, right on the shores of Lake Starnberg. Passing through the wrought-iron gate and along the gravel path, you enter the elegant stairwell, which still exudes the historic charm of bygone eras. This dreamlike apartment is located on the second floor, and the accompanying studio is in the attic; both levels are connected by an internal spiral staircase. Inside, you’ll find a contemporary living concept that masterfully blends style and history. With impressive ceiling heights of approximately 3.20m and several preserved 19th-century design elements, this property captivates with its very special charm. Generous windows flood the approximately 50 m² living area with bright natural light, while the tunnel fireplace creates a cozy atmosphere. The open kitchen blends harmoniously into the room’s design. Adjacent to the elegant bedroom is the seamlessly designed bathroom with natural light. A walk-in shower with a rain showerhead, high-quality vanity cabinets, and the exclusive Obermaier bathtub make this room a true oasis of well-being. There is also a separate restroom on this floor. The attic features a spacious studio with an airy atmosphere. Open all the way up to the roof ridge, it impresses with a ceiling height of approximately 3.70 meters and offers, in addition to the large studio, another room as well as a second shower room. Last but not least, the property captivates with its private lakeside lot featuring direct access to the water and a breathtaking view of the Alps—a privilege reserved exclusively for the residents of the castle complex. The combination of the castle’s unique historical ambiance, its idyllic lakeside location, and the unmistakable charm of a stately historic apartment makes this property a true rarity. The so-called Old Castle dates back to around 1536; as the daughter of Duke Max Joseph of Bavaria, the future Austrian Empress Elisabeth (Sisi) spent a happy childhood here. This historic past lends the estate an incomparable atmosphere that can still be felt in every corner to this day.
