The house of the philosopher Byung-Chul Han
Located in the northwest of Berlin, between the Spandauer Forst and Lake Tegel, this house owes its uniqueness to its owner. One of the most famous philosophers of our time, the Korean Byung-Chul Han, resides here. And it is within the walls of this property and in his garden, to which he has dedicated infinite hours of care, where he wrote his books, which have become in world best sellers (The Spirit of Hope, The Fatigue Society…). For health reasons, Han is unable to take care of the house, which was built in 1938 and renovated in 2000 and houses five bedrooms. The plot features a garden, a pond surrounded by hydrangeas and a small garden of Japanese rocks. An important element of this house is the Fazioli grand piano on which this thinker played so many times to masters such as Bach and Schumann and which now also is looking for a new owner.Location: BerlinSurface: plot of 700 square meters and 140 builtCondition: good.Price: 850,000 eurosContact: bchan@posteo.de

In Madrid's Alcarria
What was once an oil mill is today a stone town house that preserves the exposed wood coffered ceilings and part of the machinery used to obtain oil. The house, located in Ambite, southeast of the Community of Madrid adjacent to the province of Guadalajara, has a living room with fireplace and double-height ceiling, dining room, kitchen and three bedrooms with bathroom. Taking advantage of the unevenness of the land, another building has been built where the winery, a social room, garage and three horse boxes are located.
