The Property

The upper two floors of a Templar-era building on one of the German Colony's quieter lanes, reached by a private stone stair from a shared garden courtyard. The building dates from 1924 and retains its original stonework, window proportions and vaulted ground-floor ceilings.

The duplex was renovated in 2020, with the works handled conservatively: original floors were lifted, restored and relaid, and new services were run without disturbing the fabric. The reception rooms occupy the lower level of the duplex; four bedrooms sit above, with the principal suite opening onto a stone terrace.

From that terrace, on a clear afternoon, the Old City walls are visible to the north-east. It is a specific and rather rare thing to own in this part of Jerusalem.

Location

German Colony, Jerusalem

The German Colony was founded by the Templar Society in 1873 and remains one of Jerusalem's most desirable addresses. Its stone houses, wide pavements and mature trees give it a character unlike anywhere else in the city, and Emek Refaim runs through its centre as the neighbourhood's commercial spine.
