Artistic Pearl of the Old Town A unique, two-level apartment in a historic tenement house from 1896, located in the very heart of Krakow, right by the Planty, with a view of the St. Mary's Basilica and the Dominicans' towers. This place has a history, an artistic soul, and a space that can be recreated anew. LOCATION The apartment is located at ul. św. Gertrudy, in the Old Town, between the Main Market Square and Kazimierz. It takes just a few minutes to walk to the Market Square, Sukiennice, Mały Rynek, Wawel, or the Vistula River. The proximity of the Planty ensures exceptional comfort: a morning walk, coffee in one of Krakow's cafes, an evening stroll by the Vistula, or a spontaneous outing to an exhibition or concert are literally at your fingertips. Nearby, there are Krakow restaurants, cafes, galleries, shops, and all the amenities of daily life. This is a location for those who wish to experience Krakow every day, enjoying its culture, architecture, and urban rhythm, while also relishing privacy and a breath away from the tourist hustle. BUILDING The tenement house from 1896, designed by Krakow architect Aleksander Biborski, delights with its historical architecture and the restored staircase from 2025, creating an atmosphere that is impossible to recreate in a modern building. The apartment is located on the second and top floor, from which there is a unique view of the characteristic towers of Krakow and the greenery of the Planty. APARTMENT The total area is 126.81 m², and the usable area is 94.15 m². The apartment consists of 5 rooms spread over two levels. This place has its own history, and the presence of art has given this space a unique character. It requires refreshing, which provides great freedom in creating the interior from scratch — an elegant city apartment, a family residence in the heart of Krakow, or a private studio for those connected with art and culture. On the first level, there is a spacious living room with a kitchen area, a large wooden window overlooking a green, quiet courtyard, 2 rooms, a bathroom with a shower and toilet (renovated in 2025), a wardrobe, a separate laundry room, and a kitchen equipped with an induction hob, oven, microwave, fridge-freezer, hood, dishwasher, and coffee machine. The preserved original wooden elements in the living room add charm. On the second level, there are 2 rooms, a bathroom with a shower and toilet, and a hallway. Air conditioning was installed in 2025, and new wooden FAKRO roof windows with blinds ensure comfort. The biggest surprise of the upper level is the view of the towers of St. Mary's Church and the Dominican Church, as well as the greenery of the Planty — a characteristic Krakow landscape that changes with the time of day and year. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Electric heating. The administrative rent is around 760 PLN. The apartment has two electricity meters and the possibility of functional division into two independent units. There is also the possibility of parking in the courtyard of the tenement house, but there is no assigned parking space. SUMMARY The main advantages of the property are its prestigious location in the heart of the Old Town, the tenement house from 1896 designed by Aleksander Biborski, direct proximity to the Planty, 126.81 m² total and 94.15 m² usable area, 5 rooms on two levels, a dual-aspect apartment, a wardrobe and laundry room, a view of the St. Mary's Basilica and the Dominicans, original historical elements, a restored staircase, air conditioning, and new wooden roof windows.
