Apartment – Taken – Torpgatan 23, Triangeln

Here, the austere architecture of the late 19th century meets the tranquillity of the lush inner courtyards. This is a home on the borderlands, where the pulse of the city fades away and leaves room for private calm. Behind the entrance door, framed by dark red climbing roses, a tangible atmosphere from 1894 rests. The light wanders freely through the rooms. The generous ceiling height and the windows facing two directions create a sense of spaciousness. The two living rooms lie in a row; a long sightline that opens up the home and lets the eye wander. History is present in every detail. The profiled doors and joinery draw sharp lines against the white-painted walls, while the light wooden floors bear a visible patina – traces of more than a hundred years of footsteps. In the kitchen there is a natural gathering place for a dining table next to the window, where the morning light falls in. The inner courtyard is a sheltered, green oasis where lush plantings invite stillness. In the courtyard building there is a guest apartment and a room for communal gatherings, and across the street another courtyard opens up with room for the children to play. Outside the door await the contrasts of Torpgatan – a stone's throw from the bustling restaurant life of Möllevången, yet with Triangeln station in the next block. Welcome in!
