The gable-end position provides lovely natural light and an airy feel, while the view over the streets and greenery of Fålhagen enhances the home's free location. Several details give the home character, not least the working open fireplace, beautiful parquet floors and double sliding doors between the living room and dining room.

When the doors are opened, a generous social area is created with a lovely flow of light between the rooms, while the option remains to easily separate them.
