Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Show and Tell is one of those homes that’s brimming with charisma.

A family home to the bone, it also houses a piano (great for playing cheery tunes) and a stylish children’s bedroom with bunk beds. Moments away from Volkspark Friedrichshain, you’re in an attractive part of Berlin that’s full of soul.
