The villa with its distinctive staircase tower, located at 17 Andre Nikolić Street, is a true jewel in the portfolio of properties managed by Dipos. Deeply aware of the uniqueness of this building—its high aesthetic value and its importance to the architectural and construction history of Belgrade—our company takes devoted and heartfelt care of this property, which is owned by the Republic of Serbia. We maintain it diligently and strive to ensure that it continues to captivate with its original charm, style, and beauty.

At an exceptional location, inside the quiet and elegant Belgrade neighbourhood of Senjak stands a unique gem in the real estate portfolio managed by Dipos.
This building, which captivates with its distinctive appearance and almost fantastical elements, covers the surface area of 406 m2. It was built on the eve of World War II, in 1940, as a result of the vision of renowned architect Vojislav Đokić and has been impressing with its charm and unparalleled aesthetics for 85 years.
This is a cosy, stylistically impeccable and elegant residence, surrounded by greenery, offering a special atmosphere and genuine comfort. With the combination of different varieties of stone, brick, and warm wall colours, with a dominant plinth and a hint of bundwerk, the villa exudes peace, calm, and a strong sense of exclusivity.
The façade facing the street was designed in the style of Flemish houses, whereas the inner façade has been designed quite differently. With iron ornaments and varying angles in the roof construction, which add a sense harmony and dynamics, the home offers a special feeling of warmth and a highly aesthetic experience.
Đokić was obviously inspired not only by the traditional British village villas but also by the motifs of the Middle Ages, chivalric epics, old castles, and aristocratic palaces. This atmosphere is reflected in the conical steep roof of the staircase tower, typical of the château architectural style. Beneath the roof is a round tower with a harmonious and powerful spiral staircase. The overall impression is complemented by the large windows featuring circular decorations made from stained glass with painted motifs of knights in armour, helmets, shields, plumes, and halberds.

Close attention was paid to a myriad of charming details all over the building. The iron door knocker signals from the very first step that entering this palace is not just a routine act but a unique trip back through history. As part of the architectural tradition of medieval castles, wrought iron is used as a material that, combined with oak wood, lends a feeling of power, might, and security to the home. Equally impressive are the external window fittings, door hinges, locks, chandeliers, and even the small and elegant handles that open the window panes from the inside.

The main salon, designed in the spirit of rustic houses with elements of Romanesque and Gothic palaces, is located beneath a vaulted ceiling supported by the main pillar with an impressively designed capital. The connection with nature is accentuated by the beamed ceiling, whereas the warm atmosphere is ensured by fireplaces, a series of massive double doors, and a play of light in the stained glass windows.
Right next to the central salon is the den with library and fireplace, whereas the top floor, which can be reached via a staircase, passing through a powerful Gothic arch, hides spacious rooms with elegant and tall balcony windows.
The yard is a special feature in any time of the year. The plot is surrounded by trees, while the central area contains a paved plateau encircled by a lawn. The yard is further embellished by old magnolia trees and charming cast iron candelabra for night-time lighting.
Whether or not you appreciate rustic architecture, one thing is certain: this house remains a unique architectural gem of Serbia and is the perfect choice for those looking for a special home with soul.
