“We had the most amazing week at Franks family house. With the help of a brother in law who lives next door, it is easy to feel comfy and at home. The area is beautifull, perfect playgrounds for little childern and nearby tourist attractions. Inside there is a big living room with lots of books en games. Our kids loved it and didn't want to go home. The garden is lovely and well taking care of. We can highly recommend to visit this nice home. ”

About our home
Located in the north of Berlin, a great basis to explore the city and lake area to the north. Bus stop in front of the house and tram a 5 min walk away. Both will bring you to to the nearest underground station from where you can continue to the heart of the city (Alexanderplatz) - altogether in just over half an hour.
Ideal for a family, the kids can let off steam in the garden with swing, slide and climbing tree while you have breakfast on the patio before leaving for the city. Public swimming pool and spacious park with playground in walking distance. Bikes are also available.
180 square meter home (that's a little less than 2000 square foot) on three floors, with two bathrooms, two kitchens, 4 double bedrooms and a spacious > 50 sqm living room. The house was built in 1997 and extended in 2015/16. Ground floor bathroom and basement living room have been completely refurbished in 2018. UK IP TV for license holders.
Supermarket with bakery, DIY store and Hertz car rental in walking distance. More shopping opportunities within easy reach by public transport or car. One public transport yearly ticket for adults provided, allow to take up to three kids for free at night and weekends.

27: our daughter Lizzy having a cuddle with Ginger the cat
We would kindly ask you to take care of our very friendly cat Ginger and feed the fish in the fishtank. The entrance door has a cat flap so the cat comes and goes as he pleases, but he might ask for food (you'll find it prepared in the freezer) and a cuddle.

“We had a great time staying here. The owners were friendly, very helpful and easy to communicate with. The house is lovely and spacious, and with a bus stop so close by, access to the city centre and beyond was very easy. Berlin is such a fantastic city to visit - it has everything: art, culture, green spaces. ”
“Frank and his family were fantastic guests. Would highly recommend and welcome back”
