Classic 1920s Villa in Strängnäs – Carefully and Completely Renovated
A historic gem in a charming residential neighborhood. A fully renovated home, both inside and out, situated on a lush garden plot with a garage. Generous social areas, five bedrooms, and two balconies.
This 1925 villa offers historic charm blended with modern comfort. The house features architectural details typical of the classical style, including a yellow rendered facade, mullioned windows, and a mansard roof. It has recently undergone an extensive renovation, both exterior and interior. Original details and woodwork have been preserved, and the interior reflects a romantic Swedish Grace style. Fixtures such as door handles, power outlets, and tiles have been sourced from traditional building restoration suppliers like Sekelskifte, Byggfabriken, and Qvesarum. All paint colors throughout the house are from Farrow & Ball. Everything—from the roof and facade to the windows—has been meticulously restored.
The entrance floor opens into a spacious hallway with natural stone flooring from Stiltje, waterborne underfloor heating, white-painted wood paneling, and patterned wallpaper from William Morris. The front door is fitted with a Yale Doorman lock. A fully connected home alarm system with cameras is installed.
The elegant kitchen features oak herringbone parquet flooring and wallpapered walls with wainscoting. Appliances include a refrigerator and freezer from Liebherr, a dishwasher from Miele, and a classic-style modern oven from Lofra. From the kitchen, there is access to a practical service entrance with stairs to the basement.
A new guest WC on the entrance floor includes painted wood paneling, checkered tiled flooring, and a white vanity with a marble countertop.
Next to the kitchen is the dining room with green-painted walls, herringbone parquet flooring, mullioned windows in dark-stained wood, and original radiators. A Contura stove creates a warm and inviting atmosphere. The adjacent living room, in open-plan layout, features a bay window and light-painted walls.
An original wooden staircase in the hall leads up to the upper floor, which offers a family room with a fireplace and access to a balcony facing the front of the house. This floor has four bedrooms, all with painted walls. One of the rooms has a private balcony with views over the garden and partial views of Lake Mälaren.
The bathroom includes fully tiled walls, mosaic flooring, waterborne underfloor heating, a shower with glass walls, and ceiling spotlights.
In the basement, you’ll find a former garage, several storage rooms, a pantry, a utility room, and a laundry room equipped with Miele machines. The house is heated by geothermal energy.
Outside awaits a lush, well-maintained garden with a gravel driveway and an extended garage. Garden taps for lake water irrigation are available at both the front and back of the house. A dense lilac hedge frames the property from the street.
In the leafy backyard, there is a wooden deck patio and a storage shed. The garden features lilac bushes, jasmine, rhododendron, and magnolia, as well as several fruit trees including pear, cherry, and plum, along with two apple varieties—Cox Orange and Åkerö. There are also blackcurrant bushes, grapevines, climbing roses, and a stately maple tree.
