national romantic villa in historic quarter

Västerviksgatan 14, Strangnas, SO 64530

In Strängnäs' picturesque harbor area, Västerviksgatan stretches all the way to the water's edge of Lake Mälaren. The charming street boasts mixed-style houses from the turn of the last century with pastel-pigmented facades and unique color combinations. When you arrive at number 14 you are greeted by a spectacular National Romantic villa, with touches of British Tudor style. The plot is bordered by a beautiful red-painted fence and inside the terraced garden, gravel paths run between delightful lilacs, peonies, perennials and lavender.

Once inside the house, the architecture and joinery continue to impress. The house has recently undergone meticulous renovations to restore it to its original style, and the workmanship is of the highest standard. Beautiful solid pine floors with heating run through the entrance floor's large living room and create, together with linseed oil-painted wooden ceilings and custom-made windows with slats, a perfect whole. Upstairs, the living room has an impressive ridged ceiling with beams that contrast perfectly with the white finishes and a brick fireplace stands tall on the landing. While the entrance floor primarily offers social spaces, the upper floor also has three spacious bedrooms, one of which has a private balcony where you can see far over the city's rooftops. The kitchen and bathroom have been renovated to a high modern standard with quality equipment.

The property stretches all the way up to the parallel street's cul-de-sac, where a detached double garage with driveway stands, right next to the stunning old windmill. Next to the garage there is a lovely terrace in a south-west orientation with a view towards the Cathedral and the marina. The lower floor consists of a separate guest house, which alternatively can be used as a rental accommodation. Furthermore, there is a greenhouse and a root cellar from the 19th century, underneath a picturesque storage building.

The peaceful environment in Strängnäs' oldest neighborhood is utterly appealing. With proximity to both the beach promenade and swimming spots as well as schools and services, the location is unbeatable. Easy connection to road E20 with about an hour's drive to Stockholm.
