A Cozy Swedish Apartment with a Green Kitchen
We’re heading to Stockholm to tour a beautifully renovated apartment with a warm and welcoming atmosphere. initially, there were two apartments on this location but they have been merged into one spacious home where cooking is at the center of the home.
The turn-of-the-century home was recently renovated, and it now features original details such as tiled stoves, mirrored doors, and high skirting boards in combination with colors and material choices inspired by southern Europe.
During the renovation, a new kitchen was added with bold green cabinets an brass features. And all ceilings, walls, and joinery were repainted. The wooden floorboards have been sanded and stained with a high gloss mahogany stain, adding a warm glow to the rooms.
A cozy reading area has been created in front of the windows.
At the front of the house, you will find the living room, kitchen, and study/guest bedroom. Five large windows flood these rooms with natural light.
The kitchen is perfect for those who love to cook and entertain guests. The new kitchen provides plenty of workspace, and in the center, there is room for a large dining table.
The kitchen cabinets – painted in “Racing Green” – are paired with Carrera marble worktops and tiles.
The brass plinths and handles add a warm and luxurious tone to the kitchen. In the corner stands a traditional Swedish fireplace.
Next to the living room lies a tiny room which can be used as an office or as a guest room. The glass wall to the living room makes this room extra light and it ensures that the room doesn’t feel so small.
The master bedroom is a serene space with beige walls and a balcony. Thanks to the courtyard position, it’s a quiet room.
Th master bedroom has a small en suite bathroom.
The new bathroom has a fresh look with white tiles on the wall and Victorian style tiles – similar to the ones in the hallway – on the floor.
The second bedroom also overlooks the courtyard, and it’s decorated in an equally serene color palette.
The hallway features Victorian tiles from the turn of the century.
