The two-storey, today under monument protection standing villa is situated on a large corner lot. The house stands on a high syenite plinth that forms a basement floor . The street views of Mühlweg and Nizzastraße are three window axes long, each with a flat sloping roof . At Mühlweg there is an extension of three more axes with a flat gable roof , in which there was previously a garden room, to which a massive veranda later added .

At the street corner is a three-storey, round corner tower, the top storey of which is octagonal. It has an all-round exit with iron grating, resting on consoles . This lantern with arched windows is crowned by a copper hood with a knob and a weather vane.

The façades of the villa are smoothly plastered, with corner blocks on the ground floor and a block on the first floor tower facade. The rectangular windows on the ground floor are free-standing, framed by profiled sandstone walls and decorated with segmental arch roofs and sills with consoles . On the upper floor, the windows framed by cladding sit between a wide cornice and a window cornice underneath ; they are framed by pilasters on both sides . On the upper floor of the extension there is a twin window, which is accompanied on both sides by round, medallion-adorned mirror fields. The original ornamental painting on the upper floor has not been preserved.

In the angled inner courtyard there are single-storey extensions and a staircase project with a triangular gable.

The enclosure consists partly of vineyard walls .

history

From around 1879 the Ziller brothers opened up the building plots along the road running through Oberlößnitz and Serkowitz , which was renamed in 1903 as Saxon Nice in Nizzastraße, based on a saying by the Saxon King Johann around 1860 about the Loessnitz . As a prelude to Nizzastraße, two villas are located near the narrow-gauge Lößnitzdackel railway on two corner plots facing Mühlweg, each with a tower-like component on the corner of the building.

The villa in Villa Nizzastraße 6 was built in 1880/1881 as a single-family home, the northern counterpart, Villa Nizzastraße 7 , also by the Ziller brothers in 1879/1880.

The stairwell was extensively rebuilt in 1923 by the Dresden architect Paul Beck. In 1940 it was converted into a five-family house.

In 1946, billeted Soviet officers complained about severe structural damage .
