About this home
A lovingly preserved home from its original year of 1952
Welcome to a unique gable-end terraced house on Hästhagsterrassen, a true 1950s gem of 134 + 10 sqm with the area's absolute best plot in a perfect south-west position. The home was designed by the prominent Functionalist architect Olof ”Olle” Thunström, whose philosophy that buildings should grow out of the earth is clearly visible in how the house seamlessly interacts with the surrounding greenery.
Here you live in an unusually well-preserved piece of Swedish architectural history, where the original details have been cared for with great attention. The interior boasts beautiful stone window sills, built-in wardrobes, a stone staircase with an elegant railing, classic terrazzo floors and a sleek, modern Functionalist kitchen. The layout of five rooms and a kitchen is perfectly balanced for family life. On the entrance floor, the social spaces gather in a bright living room and kitchen, together with a bedroom and a bathroom. One floor down await two peaceful bedrooms, a cosy TV room, an additional toilet, a laundry room and ample storage space. From one of the bedrooms on the lower floor, you also reach the cosy back side.
Thanks to the unique gable position, you also have access to a separate basement room with right of use, reached via its own entrance from the gable – a perfect bonus space for a workshop, studio or extra storage. Outdoors, the flourishing gable plot winds around the house. You can enjoy the morning sun on the private back side and then follow the rays across the sun-drenched front side, where the sun lingers until late evening and also lights up the gable and back side again in the afternoon and evening. The front also features a discreet parking space with an installed electric car charger, and the well-maintained association has recently carried out technical modernisations that secure sustainable living for the future.
Hästhagsterrassen offers an idyllic and child-friendly environment known for its warm neighbourhood spirit, annual crayfish parties and atmospheric Lucia processions. Here children play safely on the quiet street and in the nearby playground. The location combines the best of two worlds, with a couple of minutes' walk to a refreshing dip in Lake Kvarnsjön and the picturesque harbour with pleasant restaurants and culture. Schools, preschools and services are within short walking distance, along with excellent direct buses that take you smoothly all the way to Slussen and T-centralen. A rare opportunity to acquire a home with soul, character and historical presence in every detail.
A warm welcome to the viewing!
