<p style="font-weight: 400;">Grandiose country house in Arts &amp; Crafts style - Stiby church village in &Ouml;sterlen.</p><p style="font-weight: 400;">In a magnificent cultural environment in the middle of picturesque &Ouml;sterlen, the majestic former school stands in a handmade memorial rock brick from 1923. Reverently restored to almost original condition, it offers golden panels and mirrored doors, high-rise windows and preserved room division. With five gallant fireplaces, crackling William Morris wallpaper, patinated wooden floors and French tiled floors; With its magnificent rooms and lounges, several stylish bathrooms, kitchens and kitchenettes, the house invites you to a distinguished living in a sumptuous, slightly eccentric environment.</p><p style="font-weight: 400;">Cottage, country house, minor mansion - you name it.</p><p style="font-weight: 400;">As one of the region's most stylish school buildings, the property has been further refined by the current owners - all in the late 1800s and early 1900s British Art Nouveau style. The Arts &amp; Crafts Movement, led by artist William Morris, was created as a protest against the mass production of the time and became a celebration of art, nature and genuine craftsmanship. The movement swept over the world as an aesthetic total concept with refined beauty in every detail. In Sweden, the style can be seen in e.g. Karin and Carl Larsson's home and gardens; in Sk&aring;ne in the so-called brick Gothic on schools as well as estates and farms.</p><p style="font-weight: 400;">At Stiby g:a school, the Arts &amp; Crafts feeling is repeated in everything from the choice of materials to the interior design; in the tapestry-like wallpapers from Morris &amp; Co, the classic Willow Bough, Indian and The Brook in new colour schemes. The house's artisanal colours come from the venerable Farrow &amp; Ball: the colours Mahogany, Arsenic and Red Earth. The kitchen and bathroom have been respectfully integrated into the original furnishings on different floors. Modern amenities and classic details have been added: tiled floors from the illustrious French Winckelmans; high-flush toilets and bathroom crockery from English Burlington; Kitchen and medicinal plants selected with care.</p><p style="font-weight: 400;">Five stoves contribute to the heating, including a glossy Bornholm stove and a magnificent wood-burning stove from C.M. Hess in the old gymnasium, now a living room with an antique pool table.</p><p style="font-weight: 400;">All the original room division has been preserved, with one exception. One of the classrooms has been lost over the years but has now been transformed into a magnificent studio/studio with a sturdy six meters in ceiling height.</p><p style="font-weight: 400;">Outdoor areas complete the experience with spacious terraces of &Ouml;land stone, red gravel, white-plastered walls, leafy trees and sheer lawns; herb garden and a magnificent orangery with stepped gables - based on a model from nearby Stiby church with its iconic medieval tower.</p><p style="font-weight: 400;">&nbsp;</p>
