The property is situated on private land registered in the Israel Land Registry (Tabu) and enjoys a prime location at the crossroads of Jerusalem’s Talbiyeh and German Colony neighborhoods. Nestled on a quiet, dead-end street, it is surrounded by green spaces on two sides and low-rise private homes on the remaining sides, offering a serene and exclusive environment.
Originally constructed as a two-story home in the 1880s, the building has undergone thoughtful expansion and renovation. Two additional floors and a red-tiled slatted roof have been added, adhering to the strict guidelines set by the Jerusalem Municipality’s Department of Conservation. The ground and lower floors have been meticulously restored to preserve the unique character of the original structure, while the newly added upper floors feature a modern design that harmonizes seamlessly with the historic style.
The exterior of the building is adorned with Jerusalem red slayeb stone, a luxurious material historically prized for its durability and rich hues, making it emblematic of Jerusalem’s architectural heritage. The walled courtyard is paved with travertine stone, renowned for its rustic beauty and practicality. This durable material is non-slippery during winter rains and resistant to heat in summer, ensuring comfort year-round. Notably, travertine was famously chosen by Emperor Titus for the construction of Rome’s Colosseum nearly two thousand years ago, highlighting its timeless appeal and strength.
