Greg Grey & Rusty Rose

Uhlandgasse, 8010 Graz

facts & figures neighborhood inquiries

Greg Gray is a stylish old building with an articulated, soft gray façade, and Rusty Rose its new companion. The new loft conversion is a testament to understated elegance, blending seamlessly into the surrounding historic roofscape. The two structures are connected in a harmonious symbiosis of old and new, creating a very livable gem in the center of Graz.

Greg Grey and Rusty Rose are right at home in the historic Herz-Jesu neighborhood of the St. Leonhard district in Graz.
Built during the second half of the nineteenth century, this is one of the oldest and most prosperous residential areas of the city. It is filled with numerous townhouses, university buildings, palaces, private schools, and a well-known church that has been part of the quarter since 1887 and is one of Styria’s most significant buildings: the Herz-Jesu-Kirche, or the Church of the Sacred Heart of Jesus. Wouldn’t you like to start the day with a view of the church tower and a cup of coffee from your greened loggia?

This can become a reality in Uhlandgasse. Located in a popular residential area known for its central location, excellent infrastructure and a wide variety of cultural amenities, the building — originally constructed around 1895 — now has approved planning permission for a loft extension in a restrained, architecturally sensitive style. The design envisions maisonette apartments with generous loggias – ideal for enjoying balmy summer evenings in an expanded living space.

The Neighborhood

The 2nd district, St. Leonhard, is located east of downtown Graz. The well-situated area is characterized by the architecture of its many beautiful old buildings. The Herz-Jesu district is also home to two universities and cultural venues such as the opera and a theater. Culinary diversity abounds, thanks to the farmer’s market and the many restaurants and hip meeting spots around Kaiser-Josef-Platz. The district is filled with exciting contrast and is a great place to live for young and old alike. Greg Grey & Rusty Rose will be central and also close to recreation areas such as Leechwald, Lustbühel, Rosenhain, and Hilmteich.

Living & Shopping

The infrastructure is great. The area boasts a variety of shops and restaurants, schools, kindergartens, banks, and public transport connections. There are also general practitioners, orthopedists, and dentists in the immediate vicinity. Just a short stop from the front door is the Matzer family’s organic store, filled with delicious local specialties. A bakery and a supermarket are both just a few minutes away on foot, and the Yo-Da Yoga and Dance Studio, located on the same block, is the perfect place to balance your mind and body.

Public & Private Transport

Tram lines 3/5 and 6 or bus lines 63/N3 go straight to the junctions of Jakominiplatz, Hauptplatz, and Hauptbahnhof. This puts you at the ideal starting point to easily access numerous destinations throughout Graz in all directions via public transport.
Hop on your bike to reach the city center of Graz very quickly and easily along the numerous cycling paths, or walk to get there in just 10 minutes. The central location also means that many destinations are just a short car drive away.

Childcare, Schools, and Universities

There are two universities in St. Leonhard (the Technical University of Graz and the University of Music and Performing Arts), and several kindergartens and schools. The nearby Ursulinen private school includes an elementary school, a new middle school, and a high school.
