The essential facts
Every technical detail and plan is set out in full in the downloadable sales documentation.
Space, layout and a sense of calm
At the heart of the apartment lies a generous living and dining area, opening onto a balcony and framed by the greenery of mature trees. It is a room made for both everyday life and quiet evenings — bright, unhurried and easy to live in.
The separate kitchen has a balcony of its own, a natural spot for morning light, a few herbs and a moment outdoors between tasks.
A private wing gathers the master bedroom, its dressing room and a further private balcony — a restful retreat set slightly apart from the shared rooms of the home.
Additional rooms adapt to the way you live: children’s rooms, a guest room, a home office or a library, arranged as your household requires. Two bathrooms — one with a bathtub, one with a walk-in shower — and a separate guest WC complete the layout.
Throughout, the impression is the same: bright and spacious, quiet and surrounded by trees, yet only minutes from the centre of Basel and Basel SBB.

Wellness, quietly on your doorstep
Residents share ownership of an indoor swimming pool within the building — a genuine rarity among Basel city apartments, and a quiet luxury that becomes part of everyday life.
Framed by glazing onto the surrounding greenery, the pool can be used throughout the year, whatever the season outside.
Because ownership is shared, the upkeep is spread among residents, while wellness remains a few steps from your own front door.
The documentation includes further information on this amenity and its shared arrangement.
Central, green and quietly distinguished
The Gellert is widely regarded as Basel’s most distinguished and greenest quarter — the city’s first villa district, with generous parks, mature gardens and a settled, unhurried character.
Rennweg 51 sits calm and leafy within it, yet remains genuinely central. The pace is quiet; the connections are not.
Basel SBB, the city centre and the St. Jakob motorway junction are all close at hand, as is everyday shopping at the St. Jakob centre and along Hardstrasse. Schools and kindergartens lie within the quarter itself.
For open air, the Schwarzpark, the St. Alban valley and the banks of the Rhine and the Birs are all nearby — a rare combination of centrality, greenery and long-term appeal.
