Welcome to a stunning property in the historic street-house environment of Kulturkvadranten! The residential building was originally constructed in 1875 but underwent a major renovation and extension in 1966 by the architect and designer Carl-Axel Acking. While the historic north façade was preserved, the rest of the apartment was given a distinct mid-century style that harmonizes beautifully with the inner courtyard.


The apartment has entrances from both Biskopsgatan and Tomegapsgatan. From the latter address, you also access the garage and the entrance leading to the lush outdoor environment with its magnificent magnolia trees. Large glass panels and windows in multiple rooms create a strong connection to the residence, with the main entrance located just to the left. The hallway features a robust Höganäs tiled floor and practical coat storage, leading into the library.


The social spaces continue into the living room, which defines the character of the entire ground floor. A magnificent open fireplace and overhead windows allow the room to be filled with abundant natural light and generous ceiling height. This area provides an excellent spot for a seating arrangement in the heart of the house, with connections to several other ground-floor spaces and the outdoor wooden deck. The dining area is slightly sunken and features a bay window facing the inner courtyard, with direct access to the kitchen through double sliding doors. The built-in, period-typical kitchen cabinetry has been preserved to maintain the character of the house, and the kitchen opens directly to the courtyard.


In the section of the house facing Biskopsgatan, there is a separate entrance, a guest WC with shower, and two enfilade rooms. The windows in these rooms are highly soundproofed, providing a calm and peaceful environment. On the ground floor, there is also an additional guest WC and a private room that can be used as a bedroom or office.


Upstairs is a more private section with a family room, one or two bedrooms, and a bathroom. The family room features a beautiful tiled stove, and along the south side of the master bedroom runs a lovely balcony with views over the rooftops and the cathedral’s twin towers. This floor also includes a generous, fully tiled bathroom with both shower and bathtub.


The basement, accessible via an internal staircase, includes a large room currently used as a home theater but suitable for multiple purposes. Beautiful details from Acking’s architecture are found here as throughout the house, including a large masonry fireplace and wooden paneled ceilings. The basement also features a substantial laundry room, sauna, and shower.


On the ground level, there is a 22 sqm garage with a remote-controlled door and an electric car charging station. The garage has direct access from Tomegapsgatan.


In summary, this is a rare opportunity to acquire a unique residence designed by one of Sweden’s most influential mid-20th-century architects. The property offers nearly 350 sqm of total space in a highly central location in Lund. Multiple entrances and a well-planned layout provide flexibility for use, such as running a business, accommodating an au pair, or housing a student.
