About this home
1920s charm flows through this house on one of Kåbo's most attractive addresses!
On one of Kåbo's most attractive addresses you will find this magnificent villa with plenty of character and an elaborate garden recently designed by architects. This stately 1920s villa offers a unique combination of timeless charm, solid craftsmanship and representative entertaining spaces. At first glance you are met by the property's impressive character and the carefully landscaped plot, which creates an inviting and exclusive environment. Inside, the home is characterised by beautiful original details from the year of construction, including fine wooden floors, windows with muntins, high floor skirting and several fireplaces, one of which is an atmospheric tiled stove, contributing to the home's warm and elegant atmosphere.
The generous social spaces on the entrance floor create excellent conditions for both everyday life and larger social gatherings. Here you will find a large dining room with a bay window that lets the garden become part of the room, a well-proportioned living room with space for a sofa group and additional furnishings, and a large kitchen with fittings from Alsike kök, all the mechanical equipment you could need and a generous dining area. The entrance floor also features a library with decorative, custom-built bookshelves, a renovated WC and a very inviting hallway. On the upper floor there is a living room that could serve as a play corner, study or perhaps a TV room? Furthermore, there are four large bedrooms, a spacious bathroom, a guest WC, a wardrobe room and stairs to the attic. In the basement you will find the more practical spaces, such as a large laundry area, hobby room, food cellar, storage room, WC, wet room with shower, as well as a sauna and a possible rental unit with a kitchenette.
Sveavägen is a quiet street, nestled among beautiful houses in Uppsala's finest district. The house is well positioned on the plot, with most of the garden at the back, and with the greenery of Götaparken as your neighbour, a calm and sheltered life is offered, allowing you to roam freely in the garden; perhaps enjoy lunch in the seating on the fine stonework? Bask in the sun in comfortable furniture on the terrace deck? Or how about brunch in the lovely greenhouse? The plot is extremely well structured with lush flowerbeds that change colour and shape with the seasons, embracing shrubbery, fine stonework, tidy gravel paths and good parking opportunities.
Live a stone's throw from everything Uppsala city has to offer! Some of Uppsala's best restaurants and cafés are just a few blocks away and could soon become your regular haunts. It is also just a couple of minutes' walk to a popular grocery store. For students, BMC, SGU and all the institutions in central Uppsala are close by. Commuters have a brisk bike ride to the station, and those travelling by car reach the major roads via nearby on-ramps. Surrounded by many walking paths, fine parks, Stadsskogen, Stadsparken and popular playgrounds, nature is always close at hand.
Here is a home with soul and history, where classic architecture meets an elaborate outdoor environment with generous opportunities for both relaxation and social gatherings. This is a home for those seeking something out of the ordinary – a property with character, charm and a sought-after location.
