Apartment St. Oak

The oak tree is the neighbour and namesake of the project, which con­sists of two holiday apart­ments located on the first and second floors of a stately, listed building dating from 1913.

Once you have passed through the old oak door and the res­tored staircase with blue wall tiles and ori­ginal Art Nouveau glass windows, visitors are greeted on the first floor by the Loft Apartment, a stately holiday home for four people. The spa­cious main room com­prises a living room with a sofa and reading corner, a sleeping area with a double bed and a beau­tiful English kitchen with an adjoining marble and cork dining table. It is com­ple­mented by a second bedroom with a free-standing bathtub and a separate bathroom with a shower and wash­basin made of Carrara marble and handmade fit­tings.
On the second floor, the spa­cious Studio Apartment offers plenty of room for six guests. The atelier-like cha­racter of the open, bright living and cooking area plays with patina, indus­trial ele­ments and roughly plas­tered sur­faces. The carefully curated interior pro­vides poetic coun­ter­points to the rough context. Three bed­rooms and two bath­rooms offer a quiet and stylish retreat.

With their ‘Design­tales’ blog series, the two owners have not only dedi­cated them­selves to subtle interior design, but also to culinary delights, as demons­trated by the open-plan kit­chens with centre island and bar stools, which forms the heart of both apart­ments. Fur­nished and equipped with high-quality, detailed design, they inspire the desire to cook — pre­ferably in company.

The windows of both apart­ments face mainly south, bathing the rooms in soft light when the sun shines. Tog­ether with the green bal­conies, from which you can look out over the oak tree and across the town square to the red-brick town hall. Pretty vantage points for morning coffee or an evening ape­ritif.

Outside, guests can enjoy a hidden cour­tyard sur­rounded by ivy and wild vines as well as an enchanted garden with hydrangeas, fra­grant lavender, all kinds of flowers, Medi­ter­ranean plants and fruit trees. The outdoor kitchen in the cour­tyard, com­plete with a large dining table and lounge fur­niture, invites you to bar­becue or cook in the open air. After all, nothing beats hos­pi­tality in its most beau­tiful forms here.

Owner

(Food) stylist and fashion designer Nora Eisermann and photographer Laura Muthesius have transformed the kitchen of an old schoolhouse in the countryside into their culinary-creative studio to conjure up gluten-free cake delicacies for their blog ‘Our Food Stories’. As the two Berliners not only want to photograph beautifully decorated tables in the most remote places and share their food with others, but also their passion for good design and interiors, they have created two other blog series, ‘Dinner Stories’ and ‘Designtales’. With St. Oak, they have fulfilled their dream of self-designed holiday homes that delights all their guests' senses.
