Villa Mautner Jäger - urban jewel from the Belle Époque

Among rose bushes and ivy, surrounded by birdsong, lies the fairytale-like Palais Mautner Jäger, a unique architectural masterpiece from the Belle Époque that immediately catches the eye. With its extraordinary appearance, it enriches the cityscape of the 3rd district and recalls the splendor of times gone by.

When you enter Palais Mautner Jäger, you are immediately transported to an era of splendor and elegance - almost as if you were a guest in the four walls of the great Gatsby. The aura of lavish soirees and sumptuous celebrations that once filled these rooms is still in the air. The owner of the “Gartenschlössl”, built in 1902, was Hertha Jäger, who was not only a great women's rights activist, but also created a hub for art and culture in her home.

The city villa shines in new splendor

This unique jewel in the city center is now to be awakened from its slumber and give its new owner a unique home. Top priority is being given to the authentic restoration of the historic villa, which is being carried out by the experienced team of architects Testor & Partner in close cooperation with the Federal Monuments Office. In the course of the renovation, the Villa Mautner Jäger will be transformed into a luxurious city residence that meets both the most modern requirements and its former glory. The conversion and renovation work will focus primarily on the 1,232 m² of interior living space.

Among other things, the property will be expanded to include an exclusive wellness area with indoor pool, inspired by the elegant ambience of the Park Hyatt Hotel, an extended loft area and a spacious underground parking garage. A steel and glass elevator in the hidden courtyard area provides barrier-free access to all residential levels and the basement. Compact (staff) apartments have been designed for the two-storey gatehouse.

The exterior of the villa is to be restored to its original appearance. All metal components, such as the enclosure and entrance portal, can be renovated and coated in the original shade of green.
