A Magnificent Historic Apartment with a Deep Green Bedroom

On the third floor of a late 19th-century apartment building in Gothenburg lies this spectacular renovated apartment, featuring three working fireplaces, a balcony facing a quiet courtyard, and ceilings more than 3 meters high.

The home has a wonderful floor plan, with three rooms in a row facing the street and a central room that opens to the kitchen, which is now used as a dining room.

The apartment features many original elements like wooden floors, moldings, amazing stucco (especially in the dining room), and double wooden doors. This 158-square-meter apartment is truly magnificent.

The dining room is truly the heart of the home, connecting the kitchen and one of the bedrooms with the living spaces and two other bedrooms on the other side of the apartment.

The ceiling in this room is truly magnificent, and paired with the original herringbone parquet floor creates a historic ambiance to the space.

The walls are painted in KC14’s “Limestone” color.

The kitchen lies beyond the dining room. It is of modest size, especially for an apartment this large, but it’s very functional and stylish with cabinets from Lidhult painted in a light beige shade.

The beige cabinets are paired with wooden and stone countertops and simple white backsplash tiles.

On the other side of the dining room lie three rooms in a row separated by the original wooden doors.

The current owners use two of these rooms as living spaces, featuring white-pigmented floorboards, beige walls, and white-painted woodwork and stucco.

Both rooms have a fireplace; this room has a traditional tiled fireplace called a kakelugn.

The middle room is the television room, featuring the same beige walls and white pigmented floorboards. The room also features ornate stucco, showcasing the history of the building.

A simple fireplace stands in the corner, creating a warm ambiance.

From the living room, you move into the master bedroom, which can also be accessed via the hall. The space is magnificent, with walls, ceiling, stucco, and wardrobes painted in a deep green, paired with ochre curtains.

The large window floods the room with natural light, creating the perfect balance between light and dark.

The spacious room also has space for a home office.

One of the bedrooms lies behind the kitchen, which has its own entrance and a small bathroom in the corner.

The bathroom is divided into two areas: a shower room and a utility space. The bathroom features classic white tiles on the walls and Moroccan-style tiles on the floor and the separating wall.
