This distinguished property represents one of the rare opportunities to own a residence that brings together architectural heritage, character, and versatility in a refined and harmonious composition. Set on a 1,120 sqm plot, the estate unfolds over a built area of 1,300 sqm and comprises an imposing main villa and two annex houses, offering a total of 30 rooms, 14 bedrooms, and 5 bathrooms — a scale that supports both the intimacy of a private residence and the prestige of a representative headquarters.


Built in 1908 on what is today Logofăt Luca Stroici Street (formerly Biserica Popa Chițu Street), the residence was commissioned by engineer Caton Simon and designed by German architect Josef Geggerle (b. 1873), in collaboration with engineer and contractor Wilhelm Brand; during the interwar period, the property was owned by Heinerich Steinberg — details that reinforce its documented historical lineage and identity.


The main villa, with its elegant façade, Corinthian columns, and finely crafted architectural details, reveals a charming interior with high ceilings, solid wood herringbone parquet flooring, original chandeliers, and large windows that flood the rooms with natural light. The balanced layout includes multiple reception salons, private offices, and relaxation areas, evoking the atmosphere of an aristocratic residence. The two annex houses, discreetly positioned within the courtyard, perfectly complement the ensemble — ideal for guest accommodation, creative workspaces, or refined offices.


The landscaped garden, surrounded by mature trees, offers an oasis of calm in the heart of the city, while the villa’s architectural integrity makes it suitable both as an exclusive private residence and as an embassy or premium company headquarters. The property’s rehabilitation project received an award at the National Architecture Biennale, Bucharest, 2012 — recognition of its architectural value and of an intervention carried out with respect for the building’s original character.


Located in the prestigious Icoanei area, one of Bucharest’s most refined and valuable historic districts, the property benefits from a privileged setting, surrounded by shaded streets, elegant villas, and major cultural landmarks. This part of the city has long been associated with artistic life, diplomatic residences, and timeless refinement, offering a balanced blend of tranquility and proximity to the vibrant city center.


Blending classical charm with contemporary potential, this emblematic Bucharest property stands as a true architectural statement — grand, elegant, and ready to embrace a new destination worthy of its stature.
