HAY JOE

At Haydngasse 17, in the heart of Mariahilf, HAYJOE is a residential development that brings together two eras of Viennese architecture under one roof. Facing the street, the historic tenement block dating from 1897 – the ART NOUVEAU HOUSE – is undergoing extensive renovation and is being extended to include a two-storey attic. In the inner courtyard, the TOWNHOUSE is being created from the remains of an old factory – a clinker-brick building in industrial style, whose large windows and insulated clinker-brick façade deliberately reflect the courtyard’s industrial character.

A total of 14 owner-occupied flats are being created, with usable living space ranging from around 41 to 187 m² – from compact city flats and classic period flats to five-room lofts and maisonette penthouses with over 250 m² of open space. Without exception, every unit has its own outdoor space – a terrace, balcony, loggia or roof terrace. Both buildings are accessed via their own stairwell with a dedicated lift; an illuminated connecting corridor provides barrier-free access from the ART NOUVEAU HOUSE to the TOWNHOUSE and the garage.

The historically structured street façade has been fully preserved and refurbished. The box-style windows have been restored or faithfully recreated. Inside, stucco, coving and moulded decorative panelling in some areas are a reminder of the building’s era of origin. Behind this lies modern technology – heating and cooling are provided by two air-source heat pumps, heat is distributed throughout via underfloor heating, and energy consumption is metered on a flat-by-flat basis.

The inner courtyard is being covered over to accommodate 16 parking spaces beneath it – each of which is fitted for an electric charging point – with level access directly from Haydngasse. In the old brick-vaulted cellar, a wine cellar is being created for the residents’ community, featuring a lockable wine rack for each flat, a kitchenette, a guest toilet and a communal dining table for evenings together.

And then there’s the address. Number 19, right next door, is the Haydn House, part of the Wien Museum. Joseph Haydn bought it in 1793 because of its ‘secluded, peaceful location’, spent the last twelve years of his life here and composed ‘The Creation’ and ‘The Seasons’ in these rooms. His reconstructed garden is now one of the quietest green oases in the district and lies just behind the neighbouring wall. Hence: HAYJOE.

All flats are handed over ready to move into. The following fittings apply across the entire development; individual units also feature smart home technology, split air conditioning and a fireplace connection.

‘WILLIAM’ concierge service

A mobile concierge looks after the building – carrying out regular inspection rounds to ensure security, cleanliness and order, accepting post and parcels, arranging service providers, and booking and managing the communal areas. Services available to book individually or as a package include cleaning, laundry, key management, holiday cover, car service, home delivery, wellness and personal trainer arrangements, as well as private cooking. A dedicated concierge service room with a key safe is located on the ground floor.

Top 2.6 – HENRY

HENRY demonstrates what a truly well-designed floor plan can achieve in a small space – of the 41.31 m² of living space, a mere 2.14 m² is taken up by the entrance hall – practically the entire area is habitable. At the heart of the home is a 22.74 m² open-plan kitchen and living area with access to the loggia, plus a full-sized bedroom measuring 10.53 m², a 4.66 m² bathroom and a dedicated storage room. With a ceiling height of 2.80 m – the highest in the TOWNHOUSE – and floor-to-ceiling glazing overlooking the inner courtyard, the flat feels noticeably more spacious. The fittings are the same as in the larger units – Admonter parquet flooring, bathrooms by Laufen and Vallone, underfloor heating via an air-source heat pump, a concierge service and a wine cellar. The most affordable way to move into the building – and therefore the obvious choice for a retirement home.
