The Potsdam district of Eiche is located to the west of the world-famous cultural monument Park Sanssouci and is home to around 5,500 residents. The district is particularly popular due to its family-friendly and rural surroundings. Your new neighbourhood will be dominated by low-rise residential buildings surrounded by gardens and green spaces.
The property is located in the centre of the district in a quiet and family-friendly environment very close to a picturesque children's riding school, the "Düstere Teiche" natural monument and the natural historical beech forest "Katharinenholz". The direct proximity to Sanssouci Park also guarantees a high recreational value in Eiche. The park, with its palaces and extensive green spaces, is known far beyond the borders of Germany as a UNESCO World Heritage Site and invites you to take long, relaxing walks. The Großer Zernsee lake with its idyllic bathing spots and the Golm Castle estate is also just 5 kilometres away.
Marlene Dietrich, Marika Rökk and Harry Piel once recovered from their legendary Ufa film work in Babelsberg in the famous Schloss Golm spa hotel right on the shores of the Großer Zernsee. After extensive renovation, it now offers an excellent gourmet restaurant and the first address for romantic celebrations surrounded by idyllic nature close to Berlin and Potsdam.
All the things you need for your daily needs can be found in the immediate vicinity of the property. These include a supermarket, a drinks market, a butcher and a bakery. Medical care is guaranteed by a general practitioner and a pharmacy in the neighbourhood.
There is also a wide range of options for your children in terms of care and education: from daycare centres, primary schools, secondary schools and grammar schools to public schools, Potsdam offers children all kinds of options. Within a radius of approx. 750 metres from your new home, for example, you will find two primary schools and several daycare centres. Two academic campuses of the renowned Potsdam University are also located in the immediate vicinity. The Golm campus is only around 1.8 kilometres away and the Neuen Palais campus is only around 2.4 kilometres away.
The city of Potsdam also has a lot to offer beyond the borders of Eiche. Babelsberg Park and the New Garden, as well as Sanssouci Park, invite you to take long and extensive walks past Babelsberg Palace or Cecilienhof Palace. Numerous cultural highlights such as theatre, cabaret and poetry slams can be found in Schiffbauergasse or in the city centre. The numerous restaurants and bars in the city centre and the many bodies of water that surround Potsdam round off the wide range of offers that guarantee a high quality of life. This is because 2/3 of Potsdam consists of forests and water. In a major study, the Prognos Institute analysed the quality of life in all 401 German districts and independent cities. Potsdam is in 4th place! Potsdam is particularly well placed in the area of leisure and nature: 1st place in the overall ranking for Germany.
Public transport connections are easy to reach thanks to the bus stop approx. 500 metres away. The Golm regional railway station also offers excellent train connections to the German capital Berlin via the Potsdam, Babelsberg and Charlottenburg stations. BER can be reached quickly by car in approx. 55 minutes and Berlin's Ku'Damm in approx. 45 minutes. The capital metropolis of Berlin is therefore only a few minutes away by car and offers opportunities of all kinds.
