This exceptional residence is a one-of-a-kind architectural project, representing the only home in Europe designed by the legendary Californian architect Ray Kappe. Renowned for his pioneering contributions to Southern Californian modernism, Kappe was a visionary who combined elements of organic architecture with a deep respect for the environment. His designs are celebrated for their use of natural materials, open floor plans, and seamless integration with the surrounding landscape. Kappe founded the Southern California Institute of Architecture (SCI-Arc), where he influenced generations of architects with his philosophy of design that emphasized sustainability, modular construction, and a fluid connection between interior and exterior spaces.
As Kappe once described of his significant works, “I take visitors of the house through a sequence that begins at a deep point, followed by an ascent, and finally culminates in a kind of spatial explosion.” This guiding philosophy is reflected in every aspect of this residence. The characteristic clean lines, present in the home’s exterior and interior, flow seamlessly, creating a harmonious interplay between glass and reddish woods like Douglas fir and redwood, sourced directly from California.
Set on a sun-drenched 1000-square-meter plot, this south-facing property is surrounded by majestic pine trees, creating a blend of architecture and nature that echoes Kappe’s vision. Large expanses of glass flood the interior with natural light, enhancing the open-plan design that’s signature to his style. The design fosters surprising visual connections between spaces, making the house feel interconnected while also respecting the natural surroundings.
The heart of the home features a central living area with a dramatic atrium and an open kitchen and dining area, embodying what Ray Kappe referred to as a "spatial explosion." This moment occurs as the layout ascends and opens up, creating both horizontal and vertical links throughout the house. Classical elements of compression and decompression, inspired by Frank Lloyd Wright, are subtly incorporated into the design, offsetting the height between the first and second floors—another signature feature of Californian modernism.
The sunken lounge, separated by the fireplace from the reception area and dining room, creates an intimate yet connected living space. Above, a gallery on the second floor serves as a passageway that connects various rooms while offering space to pause and linger. This architectural layering fosters an ever-changing play of light and shadow, amplified by the interplay of concrete pylons and skylights. The result is a dynamic atmosphere that evolves throughout the day, enhancing the sense of openness and freedom that defines the home.


This residence offers a balance between sophistication and simplicity, with bespoke materials like red oak flooring and an Ofuro-style Japanese bathtub enhancing the home’s timeless elegance. Every detail, from the sandblasted concrete pylons to the precision of the Corian-clad interior walls, contributes to the overall aesthetic excellence of this architectural masterpiece.

Unique Residence by Ray Kappe – Californian Modernism in Europe

This villa combines contemporary architecture, premium materials and an exceptional waterfront setting on Lake Scharmützelsee to create a harmonious overall concept. Offering approximately 453 m² of living space, the property is defined by generous proportions, clean architectural lines, abundant natural light and a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living. Expansive floor-to-ceiling glazing frames the lake and the mature trees, making the surrounding landscape an integral part of almost every room.
Upon entering the house, the eye is immediately drawn through the full-height windows towards the lake. At the heart of the home is the impressive living and dining area of more than 100 m², featuring ceiling heights of up to 6.40 metres. Its south-east and south-west orientation allows natural light to accompany the living spaces throughout the day while connecting effortlessly to the two spacious lake-view terraces. A three-sided Leda fireplace and a carefully designed lighting concept create a warm and inviting atmosphere during the evening hours.
The approximately 30 m² next125 designer kitchen integrates naturally into the open-plan living area. A generous kitchen island, worktops crafted from Norwegian Lapponia Verde natural granite, and high-quality appliances by Miele and Liebherr combine timeless design with outstanding functionality.
The upper floor accommodates the private primary suite, offering views across Lake Scharmützelsee, a bespoke dressing room and a spacious bathroom. This level is complemented by an open gallery with a library and home office, which can easily be converted into an additional bedroom if desired.

The garden level is dedicated to relaxation and well-being. A private wellness area featuring an indoor swimming pool with counter-current system, a sauna and elegant natural stone finishes opens directly onto the garden, creating a tranquil retreat within the home.
A further highlight is the rooftop terrace of more than 30 m², offering sweeping views across Lake Scharmützelsee, the mature trees and the surrounding Brandenburg landscape.
For cinema and music enthusiasts, the villa features a fully integrated home entertainment system. A motorised Stewart projection screen disappears discreetly into the ceiling and, together with a Sony laser projector and a premium KEF/Denon sound system, provides an exceptional home cinema experience without compromising the open architectural design.
One of the defining design elements throughout the villa is the Norwegian natural granite Lapponia Verde. The stone is used consistently in the flooring, bathrooms and kitchen, creating a cohesive material concept throughout the residence. This is complemented by numerous bespoke built-in furnishings, including the library, dressing rooms, wardrobes and sideboards, all individually designed to complement the architecture of the home.
These custom-made built-in furnishings remain with the property, together with the designer kitchen, the home cinema system and numerous additional high-quality features. The documented replacement value of the included built-in furnishings and technical equipment exceeds €300,000.
An adjoining building plot of approximately 1,500 m², located directly next to the property, is available for purchase by separate agreement.
