Like a peaceful oasis in the heart of Stockholm, this elegant turn-of-the-century property is now being revived with a modern interior. Beautifully situated in a park-like setting, opposite Adolf Fredrik Church and close to the greenery of Tegnérlunden.
With careful attention, the architectural values of the turn of the century have been preserved while the layout and interior design have been created entirely with our modern way of living in mind. The period-typical details from the turn of the century, such as high ceilings, beautiful windows, and stucco, combined with the tailored modern solutions, create an experience of timeless and contemporary quality.
The building houses eight large villa-style apartments ranging from 140 to 186 sqm and several residences between 30 to 109 sqm.
With generous social spaces and natural connections between the kitchen and living room, a pleasant flow is created between the rooms in the apartments. Inviting terraces and balconies face the courtyard, and all corner apartments have views of the beautiful Adolf Fredrik Church.
Kurland 11
When Kurland 11 was built between 1884 and 1885 by master builder JW Lagerstedt, following the designs of architect AG Forsberg, it was originally a residential building. The housing shortage in Stockholm at the time was acute. The city had grown at a record pace due to the country’s industrialization and urbanization. Between 1850 and 1900, Stockholm’s population more than tripled, from 90,000 to 300,000. To meet the increasing demand, extensive construction of new housing began, particularly in the city’s outer districts.
In the changing metropolis, many of the residences in the Kurland quarter were gradually converted into offices from the mid-20th century to meet the growing demand for smaller offices. Today, with housing shortages, flexible working arrangements, and sustainability being central concepts, many politicians are in favor of converting existing office buildings into housing rather than building new ones.
Now, the property has been restored to housing in its former glory but with today’s high standards and modern layouts. The apartments have been carefully designed by Architect Sanna Taune at Vardag Arkitekter, with a thoughtful layout separating private areas from social spaces. The apartments feature large terraces, balconies, and patios facing the quiet inner courtyard. Stucco, moldings, trim, and wainscoting have been restored to their late 19th-century appearance, while herringbone parquet floors harmonize with the new kitchens from Kvänum, equipped with Miele appliances.
