<p data-start="257" data-end="787">Amid the rolling countryside of southern Sweden lies V&auml;sterstad Manor - a historic estate with origins dating back to the 16th century, now reborn as one of the region's most refined private residences. As you turn onto the driveway, an avenue of two-hundred-year-old linden trees leads to a symmetrical boxwood roundel with a fountain at its center. Upon arrival, the estate's distinguished character reveals itself - a beautifully preserved manor where classical architecture and modern comfort meet in rare harmony.</p><p data-start="789" data-end="1307">The manor house took its present form in the early 19th century and has, in recent years, undergone a complete restoration to the highest international standard. Columns with decorative capitals designed by architect Helgo Zetterwall frame the twin entrances, offering a prelude to the stately interior within. Inside, a sequence of grand salons unfolds in harmonious succession, adorned with tiled stoves, paneled double doors, and elaborate stuccowork - each element carefully restored by specialized conservators.</p><p data-start="1309" data-end="2169">Every detail of the interior has been meticulously crafted. The design concept was developed through close collaboration between architect, artisans, and interior designers. Custom joinery and historically faithful windows were crafted by Limhamns Finsnickeri and T. Nilsson Snickeri. The result is a home where historical authenticity merges seamlessly with contemporary function. The kitchen features bespoke cabinetry with hand-crafted fronts by Marbodal and fittings by Qvesarum. Bathrooms are appointed with limestone and brass, the palette is soft and refined, and the lighting discreetly integrated. A modern climate-control system with cooling, ventilation, and smart home integration via Plejd has been installed, along with concealed security technology - all designed to blend naturally into the historic whole without disturbing its authenticity.</p><p data-start="2171" data-end="2707">Surrounding the manor is a classical landscaped park with clipped hedges, gravel paths, and carefully pruned linden trees. A sheltered terrace faces west, offering open views across fields and sky. Adjacent lies the detached guesthouse, renovated to the same high standard as the main building - ideal for family, guests, or professional use. The property also includes former agricultural buildings, such as an old barn and machinery hall, providing opportunities for future development - a stable, studio, or other functions.</p><p data-start="2709" data-end="3088">V&auml;sterstad Manor forms part of a vibrant cultural landscape with close proximity to Flyinge Royal Stud, V&auml;sterstad Riding School, and several established equestrian facilities. With 2.3 hectares of land, a park-like garden, and historic buildings restored to pristine condition, this estate offers a piece of Scania's cultural heritage - thoughtfully renewed for a new century.</p><p data-start="2709" data-end="3088">Welcome to a life lived within history.</p>
