Close to nature & family-friendly: living beautifully in Französisch Buchholz

Join us on a journey of discovery and experience our climate-neutral new-build project KOKONI ONE, which is taking shape in the beautiful Pankow district of Französisch Buchholz. Französisch Buchholz is exactly the right place for a sustainable home or value-enhancing investment. Because here you are outside and yet close to the center. Here you have direct access to forests or beautiful lakes such as the Karower Teichen and are still only 30 minutes away from the center. Here you can slow down in a relaxed neighborhood without having to sacrifice the typical Berlin pace.

A paradise for children

Let the children play outside the front door without worrying? What hardly seems possible in other parts of Berlin is commonplace in Französisch Buchholz. Here, children can still be children, get to know the wonders of nature and romp and dream with others into the evening hours. And they can also do this outside the child-friendly KOKONI ONE development, which is designed with varied communal areas. Because far from the KOKONI ONE site, traffic-calmed streets and lovingly equipped adventure playgrounds await little adventurers, while you can rely on the watchful eye of the residents.

ZIEGERT estate agent Ben:

“Our beautiful KOKONI ONE house project in Französisch Buchholz – what can customers expect here? My colleagues and I always say: this is our little garden city. We have a small cocoon with our own orchard, a community center and playgrounds. Relatively traffic-calmed. We have a play street where residents can drive their vehicles to the house. Otherwise, everything is pedestrianized.”

Everyday school and daycare life in Französisch Buchholz also proves to be particularly pleasant and varied for children and parents. In daycare centers with different educational concepts, the little ones are not only given the usual daycare games, but also movement and nature lessons along the way. Numerous primary and secondary schools in the area, some of which focus on specific subjects or offer extracurricular care, provide support and encouragement until the children successfully leave school.

Living neighborhood

At KOKONI ONE, the focus is on us. That’s why there are interactive meeting places in the center of the development with plenty of space for working, gardening or celebrating together. Französisch Buchholz itself is similarly social and communicative. Regular festivals are held around the church of the same name and its beautiful forecourt. The local community association organizes fairy walks, choir rehearsals and flea markets. Another popular neighborhood hangout is the Eiserne Gustav at Hauptstraße 59A. Residents like to come together here often to talk about current neighborhood stories and sample the delicious menu.

KOKONI ONE resident:

“We’ve lived here since December 2023. We liked the overall concept. Everything is very well insulated: the indoor climate, the heat pump. You’re not dependent on gas.

We also like the fact that it’s a community. We didn’t know what it would be like at the beginning, but it worked out very well. The neighbors and residents are very nice.”

Natur pur

Green is not only the environmentally conscious KOKONI ONE construction method or the plant-rich settlement concept, but also French Buchholz and the surrounding area. A particular highlight: the Karower Teiche ponds, which are just 2.5 kilometers from KOKONI ONE. This popular nature reserve and excursion destination is home to over 60 bird species and, if you’re lucky, you might even spot water buffalo here. The many surrounding (organic) farms are also full of animals. Goats, cows and rabbits can be admired and stroked up close against a beautiful farmyard backdrop. Some of the farms are also adjoined by farm stores with lovingly selected food assortments.

In the warmer months, the lakes in the area entice visitors with their refreshing water and green shores. These include the Arkenberger Baggersee, the Summter or Mühlenbecker See. There are also numerous parks and extensive green spaces where you can idle away the time under old giant trees or follow winding footpaths. The Botanical Volkspark and the Bürgerpark or Schloßpark Pankow stand out in particular for their beauty and diversity.

Large selection, short distances

If you are worried that Französisch Buchholz is too rural or poorly connected, this is unfounded. The infrastructure of the idyllic Pankow district is excellent – and the trend is rising. More and more people are moving to the up-and-coming north of Berlin, which has an extremely positive effect on the demand for housing and the growing number of supermarkets, surgeries and restaurants. You will find everything you need for everyday life around KOKONI ONE within a walking and cycling-friendly radius of 1.5 kilometers. You can also reach the popular Pankow Florakiez district and its many boutiques and cafés within 15 minutes by car.

And if you want to go further afield: Thanks to the Berlin i2030 network expansion (S-Bahn/regional train), you are ideally connected to the center of the capital and can reach important public transport hubs such as the Friedrichstraße S-Bahn/U-Bahn station within 30 minutes. If you prefer two wheels, you will also get your money’s worth on the planned Panke Trail. The 18-kilometre-long high-speed cycle route is the green alternative to car traffic and will run from Karow in the north-east via the districts of Pankow and Prenzlauer Berg to Berlin city center.

KOKONI ONE resident:

“I work in Friedrichstraße. When I cycle, it takes me 40 minutes. That includes sport.

But I can also take the S-Bahn. Then it only takes 30 minutes.”

Plenty of space for leisure

Zumba, karate, fitness, art, music: when it comes to leisure activities, there is almost nothing in Französisch Buchholz that doesn’t exist. Young and old alike can devote themselves entirely to their hobbies in the numerous sports clubs, citizens’ initiatives and nature reserves.

KOKONI ONE also offers plenty of space for leisure activities. Right on your doorstep, an event-ready community center, playgrounds with a workout corner, a meadow orchard or your own private garden provide the perfect setting for the end of the day and the weekend.
