Owner-occupied | Urban at Home | Village in the Third | Building Area 13 | Completion 2027

Living in the Village in the Third

In the third district of Vienna, the Village in the Third is being developed as a new piece of city – one of the largest urban development areas in Vienna. Over eleven hectares, ARE Austrian Real Estate, together with the City of Vienna and wohnfonds_wien, is creating a vibrant, almost car-free quarter with around 2,000 apartments, office and commercial spaces, childcare, educational facilities, and local supply.

The green heart is formed by the over 2-hectare Bert Brecht Park – an oasis for relaxation, meeting, and play. All roofs that are not accessible will be greened. Sharing offers, shopping opportunities, and gastronomy are right at your doorstep. Sustainability, short distances, and high quality of life are the guiding principles of this new district.

With the slogan "urban at home", Building Area 13 embodies this idea in a special way: modern architecture, versatile open spaces, hobby rooms, and communal areas – living in the middle of Vienna with a strong urban identity and high comfort.

ARE is one of Austria's largest real estate companies and has already realized some of Vienna's most significant construction projects – including the renovation of the historic Palais Epstein on the Ring and the striking TrIIIple Towers on the Danube Canal. The Village in the Third also joins this series of innovative projects.

Energy with a future.

The entire Village in the Third is supported by a modern energy network that connects the individual buildings and efficiently manages energy flows. Building Area 13 is also part of this innovative network – one of the most modern forms of sustainable district supply.

Ground probes combined with heat pumps provide energy for room heating in winter and for tempering (basic cooling) in summer.

Photovoltaic systems on the roofs generate renewable electricity.

Underfloor heating in the ground floor and component activation in the upper floors (through the ceiling of the respective upper floor) ensure a balanced indoor climate.

Controlled ventilation with heat recovery ensures continuous fresh air supply.

District heating connection supports supply during peak times and hot water preparation.

This creates a synergy of comfort, innovation, and ecological responsibility – a clear added value for residents.

Architecture that embodies urbanity.

Building Area 13 comprises three structures connected by a common base floor:

OPS 12 Stg. 1+2: five upper floors

OPS 12 Stg. 3: eight upper floors

HGP 5: ten upper floors

A total of 143 freehold apartments will be created with living areas between approximately 45m² and 110m² and 2-5 rooms, as well as 2 commercial units. Additionally, 10 hobby rooms will be available for purchase. The compact building form largely ensures two-sidedly lit apartments, each with two open spaces:

an open space room with movable perforated sheet elements for privacy and shading

a covered balcony with glass railing

Dry-footed, one can walk from the main entrance on Otto-Preminger-Straße through the central covered corridor to the two rear buildings up to the Hilde-Güden promenade and the direct access to the park. The corridor is widened with generous openings to the atrium courtyards, which are illuminated and ventilated from above. Car and bicycle garages, waste rooms, and stroller storage rooms are also directly accessible from this central corridor. Additional entrances at the park level allow good pedestrian accessibility from all directions.
