HAY JOE - Top 2/5

THE PROJECT

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 being comprehensively refurbished and extended with 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 will be fully preserved and refurbished. The box windows will be restored or faithfully recreated. Inside, stucco, coving and moulded decorative panelling evoke the building’s era of origin. Behind this lies modern technology – heating and cooling are provided by two air-source heat pumps, warmth is distributed throughout via underfloor heating, and energy consumption is metered on a flat-by-flat basis.

The inner courtyard is a special feature. It will be covered, with 16 parking spaces beneath – each prepared for an electric charging point, and 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 wrote ‘The Creation’ and ‘The Seasons’ in these very rooms. His reconstructed garden is now one of the quietest green oases in the district and lies just beyond the neighbouring wall. Hence: HAYJOE.

All flats are handed over ready to move into.

Top 2.5 – LEONHARD

LEONHARD boasts the best-designed three-room layout in the building. 36.37 m² – over 43 per cent of the living space – is allocated to the kitchen-diner, a proportion usually found only in significantly larger flats. The two bedrooms, measuring 13.55 and 13.07 m², are almost the same size and each has its own bathroom (4.49 and 4.10 m² respectively) – ideal for couples with guests, for two children or for a live-and-work arrangement. There is also a separate toilet, a storage room with a washing machine connection and a 7.41 m² balcony overlooking the quiet inner courtyard. With ceiling heights of up to 2.80 m and the TOWNHOUSE’s generous glazing, the flat feels considerably larger than its square metreage would suggest.

Please note that there is a close family or business relationship between the estate agent and the third party for whom the property is being marketed.

The agent is acting as a dual agent.
