Two apartments in one, in the iconic artists’ house of the Csarnoknegyed – a versatile, immediately move‑in‑ready home.

In the heart of Budapest, on the greenest street of the Csarnoknegyed, we are offering for sale a distinctive, impressive apartment in a listed historic building, consisting of two fully self‑contained units. The property is ideal for investors, large families, and anyone seeking an inspiring, quiet space for working from home, or for use as a studio, office or medical practice.

The property is held in sole (1/1) ownership and is free of litigation, encumbrances and claims.

Location and surroundings:

Numerous cafés, restaurants, universities, schools, kindergartens, playgrounds and shops can be found in the immediate vicinity.
Its central location offers excellent public transport connections: the Nagykörút, Corvin Promenade and, for example, Rákóczi Square are all just a few minutes’ walk away.
The neighbourhood is undergoing continuous renewal; well‑maintained parks are close by, and new residential buildings are being constructed, which enhances the property’s long‑term value.
The street is one‑way and relatively quiet, with plenty of trees and birdsong, thanks to the Mindszenty József Park opposite.

The apartment is on a raised ground floor, approximately 210 cm above pavement level, so there is no direct view into the property from the street.

The house and its history:

The property is located in a unique studio house where many artists have worked in the past and continue to work today. Among other things, the stones of the Opera House and the Parliament were carved in the studios of this building. The house has a rich historical and artistic heritage; those interested can find detailed descriptions of its past online.
The staircase of the condominium is well kept, and the residents’ community is caring and cooperative. The building is under ongoing technical maintenance, the gas pipes have been replaced, and the condominium actively seeks further development and grant opportunities.

Layout and rooms of the property:

Upon entering the apartment, you arrive in a shared entrance hall of approximately 5 m², from which two separate doors lead to the two units.

Left‑side unit (A) – approx. 42 m²
Spacious room
Bathroom (with shower)
Pantry
Hallway
Kitchenette
A private light well of approx. 2 m², which can also be stepped out into (it is not listed in the title deed, but is used exclusively by the owner).

Right‑side unit (B) – approx. 53 m²
Large room with a generous built‑in wardrobe
Smaller, sunny room facing a quiet courtyard
Kitchen (with gallery)
Bathroom (with bathtub)

In addition, the apartment has its own cellar storage unit.

The ceiling height is approximately 380 cm, allowing for the creation of additional galleries. It is currently used as two separate apartments, but the original, interconnected layout can be reinstated.

An indicative floor plan is available among the images in the listing.

Technical condition and renovations:

The property is in good condition and has undergone comprehensive renovations over the past 12 years.

12 years ago: replacement of gas, electrical and water pipes; installation of new kitchens and one new bathroom; installation of built‑in wardrobes.
7 years ago: chimney lining; installation of an energy‑efficient Immergas condensing boiler, which provides heating for the entire apartment and hot water in unit “A”.
2 years ago: installation of an 80‑litre Hajdú electric boiler in the “B” unit.
In recent years, several rounds of cosmetic repainting have been carried out.

The room windows are fitted with shutters, and thanks to the thick walls and abundant greenery, the apartment does not overheat in summer.

Utilities and metering:

Gas and electricity consumption remain within the protected, reduced‑tariff limits.
Water consumption can be measured separately in the two units via two individual water meters.
Electricity consumption can also be measured separately; a sub‑meter operates in unit “A”.

The common charges, in addition to covering cleaning, waste collection and the management fee, also include contributions to the renovation fund.

The apartment is highly versatile and offers numerous investment options:

The property is registered under a single parcel number but functions as two separate apartments; at present, three generations live here together, yet independently.
One half can be used as a home, while the other can function as a studio, office, medical practice, etc.
It is also excellent for rental: for example, the owner can live in one unit and rent out the other, thereby generating additional income.
It can also be rented as two completely independent units, with an annual yield potential of up to 5%. Short‑term rental is not prohibited by the founding deed.
Thanks to the layout of the shared entrance hall, in addition to the existing two units, an extra mini‑studio apartment could also be created.
