Vienna’s 11th district, Simmering, is offering a unique blend of city life and tranquil living with a newly constructed garden apartment. The property, completed in 2017, presents a modern living space with a private garden and terrace, appealing to those seeking a balance between urban convenience and peaceful relaxation.
The apartment, spanning approximately 90.60 square meters (roughly 975 square feet) of weighted living space, features three rooms, a modern fitted kitchen, and a 12-square-meter (129 square feet) terrace opening onto a substantial 73.88-square-meter (795 square feet) garden. The listing emphasizes the property’s quiet location and excellent public transport links, making it an attractive option for families and professionals alike.
Modern Comfort in a Prime Location
Located in the heart of 1110 Vienna, this novel build offers a contemporary living experience. The apartment’s layout is designed to maximize space and light, with the living room and kitchen forming the central hub of the home. The inclusion of a fitted kitchen suggests a move-in ready condition, minimizing the need for immediate renovations. Two additional rooms provide flexible space for bedrooms, a home office, or guest accommodations. A practical storage room adds to the functionality of the apartment.
The real draw, however, appears to be the outdoor space. The terrace provides an immediate extension of the living area, while the private garden offers a secluded retreat for relaxation and entertainment. This combination of indoor and outdoor living is a significant selling point, particularly in a bustling city like Vienna.
Simmering: A Well-Connected District
The apartment’s location in Simmering offers residents easy access to a range of amenities and services. The nearby Hans-Paulas-Park provides a green space for recreation and leisurely walks.

This connectivity simplifies commuting and allows residents to easily explore the wider city.
Beyond transportation, the location provides convenient access to essential services such as schools, gyms, medical facilities, pharmacies, and shopping opportunities. This proximity to daily necessities enhances the overall quality of life for residents. The area’s appeal is further underscored by the fact that the building itself was constructed in 2017, suggesting modern building standards and amenities.
Construction Details and Building Features
The residential complex at Braunhubergasse 23, where this apartment is located, was completed between 2017 and 2018. The project, undertaken by Voitl & Co. In collaboration with EGW Heimstätte Ges.m.b.H., comprised 110 subsidized rental apartments ranging in size from approximately 40 to 95 square meters.

Beyond the individual apartments, the complex includes communal spaces such as laundry facilities, a bicycle room, a waste disposal area, a common room, and a children’s playroom. Residents also benefit from access to private gardens and a shared garden area with a small children’s playground and a larger playground for older children. Two large communal terraces on the sixth floor provide additional outdoor space for residents to enjoy.
Investment Considerations
The apartment is listed for sale at €439,000. The price per square meter is calculated at €4,845.47. Potential buyers should factor in a commission of 3% of the purchase price, plus 20% VAT. Monthly operating costs are estimated at €261.13, including €173.38 for utilities.
It’s important to note that the listing discloses a familial or economic relationship between the intermediary and the party being represented, and that the intermediary is acting as a dual agent. This transparency is crucial for potential buyers to understand the dynamics of the transaction.
