New living in Hernals: groundbreaking ceremony for luxurious condominiums
History comes to life in Hernals, one of Vienna's most charming districts. On July 17, 2025, the groundbreaking ceremony took place for the redesign of the former Manner Villa, a building from the period between 1910 and 1914 that was built by architect Peter Paul Brang in the homeland security style with influences from the Vienna Secession. This remarkable project, which is called “HOMMAGE Carl” and is a homage to the legendary boss of the Viennese confectionery dynasty Carl Manner, promises not only a revitalization of the historical substance, but also the creation of 18 luxurious condominiums.
Financed by Homage Carl Ownership GesmbH and in collaboration with VR Bank Niederbayern-Oberpfalz eG, the construction project includes two separate building structures. On the one hand, the “Hommage Villa Carl”, which houses nine apartments ranging in size from 172 m² to 258 m², and on the other hand, the “Hommage Residenz Carl”, which also offers nine units between 44 m² and 135 m². Completion of the entire facility is scheduled for the end of 2026.
District leader Peter Jagsch (SPÖ) was present at the groundbreaking ceremony and emphasized the importance of this project for the district. “This is a big step for Hernals,” he said, emphasizing the potential social and economic benefits for the community. Sales of the apartments have already begun - the brokers from Median Capital Real Estate are making viewing appointments possible for those interested, who are sure to jump on board to secure their new dream homes.
Modern living concepts close to green spaces
Homage Carl not only offers impressive living space, but also a direct connection to nature. A unique quality of life pool is created with an approximately 2,000 m² park in which the old trees are preserved and new plants are specifically planted. Not only are 2 to 4 room apartments available here, but also spacious outdoor areas that invite you to relax.
- Topwohnung: ca. 222 m² mit drei Schlafzimmern, einem separaten Büro, großzügigen Wohn- und Aufenthaltsbereichen, einem Balkon von 13,5 m², einer Terrasse von 58 m² und einem Garten von 45 m².
- Ausstattung: Offene Wohnküche, eigene Sauna und eine Tiefgarage mit modernen E-Mobilitätsinstallationen.
- Besonderheiten: Concierge-Service und maßgeschneiderte Finanzierungsberatung bis zur Schlüsselübergabe.
These attractive features not only represent a high quality of living, but also a trend that influences property values in Vienna. Sustainable building and modern architecture are more in demand than ever. According to an analysis by immofragen.at, new apartments with well-thought-out, sustainable design achieve higher sales prices and appeal to buyers with corresponding demands. Monument protection and innovative living concepts are very popular and increase the attractiveness of the properties.
The Homage Carl not only revitalizes an old villa, but also opens a new chapter for the living concept in the Hernals district. It remains exciting to see how this project will develop and what influence it can have on the real estate landscape in Vienna. The signs point to good business for future residents!
