Pastel Tones and Wallpapers in a Grand Turn-of-the-Century Stockholm Apartment

On the third floor, this beautifully preserved turn-of-the-century apartment in Stockholm’s chic Östermalm area quietly unfolds across an impressive 195 square meters.

From the moment you enter, there’s a sense of volume and light: high ceilings soar overhead, tall windows draw daylight deep into the rooms, and herringbone parquet floors run like a continuous thread throughout the home. Original tiled stoves punctuate the spaces, adding both warmth and historical character.

The living room reveals itself as a grand yet welcoming space. Tall windows face the street, filling the room with light, while a tiled stove anchors the seating area.

The living room is decorated in a soft pastel-toned color palette, matching the colors in the fireplace, with a light blue hue on the walls and a multi-colored rug.

A beautiful, ornate kakelugn is the center point in the living room.

At the heart of the apartment sits the dining room. Accessible from both the hall and the living room, it acts as a central hub that connects the home’s different zones.

There’s ample room for large dinners and celebrations, enhanced by another tiled stove and a bespoke bar cabinet that adds both charm and functionality.

The walls are decorated with the Bandipur Grasscloth Sky Wallpaper, inspired by Indian miniature paintings of serene, peaceful landscapes. This pastoral mural of a green valley and stream features delicately painted trees and pastures, a softly clouded sky, and flying birds.

From the dining room, you can step out onto the balcony overlooking the quiet courtyard.

In the kitchen, custom-built cabinetry from Bulthaup in a muted grey palette gives the space a refined, architectural quality, while Kolmårds marble worktops and splashbacks introduce a rich, tactile contrast.

The master bedroom, located next to the living room, is a private retreat complete with built-in wardrobes and a generous en suite bathroom finished in white tile and Kolmårds marble, with double sinks and a walk-in shower.

The guest toilet is decorated with the “Bush Baby” wallpaper by Cole & Son and a hand-painted sink from Solitaire Design.

In the entrance hall, limestone floors with underfloor heating create an inviting first impression. There’s ample room for coats and storage, along with a neatly tucked-away guest toilet.

The apartment is listed for sale at Per Jansson.
