Why this property will seduce you

Historic Royal Setting: Adjacent to Sofiero Palace with views of Kronborg Castle.
Restored Royal Architecture: Historic silhouette precisely reconstructed.
Private Wellness Suite: Integrated sauna and wine cellar.

Situated directly on the shores of the Öresund, beside Sofiero Palace, Hovmarskalksvillan is far more than an exceptional waterfront residence. It is a rare piece of Swedish royal history, combining documented provenance, distinguished architecture and a setting of remarkable beauty.

The villa was built in 1897 as the summer residence of Consul August Wingårdh, one of Helsingborg’s leading industrialists, and designed by renowned architect Ola Anderson. Originally named Villa Ekeliden, the red-brick, turreted residence was crowned by a tall tower and elegant spire, forming a distinctive silhouette along the Sound.

In 1905, Crown Prince Gustaf Adolf, later King Gustaf VI Adolf, and Crown Princess Margaret acquired the property and incorporated it into the Sofiero estate. The upper section of the tower was subsequently removed, reportedly because it interrupted the view from Sofiero towards Kronborg Castle on the Danish coast. In the decades that followed, the villa served as a residence for the Marshal of the Court and other senior members of the Royal Household, giving rise to its present name, Hovmarskalksvillan – “The Court Marshal’s Villa”.

After King Gustaf VI Adolf’s death in 1973, Sofiero was donated to the City of Helsingborg, while Hovmarskalksvillan remained in private ownership. The present owner acquired the estate in 2005 and has since used it exclusively for corporate representation, executive education and board meetings, rather than as a conventional family home.

Between 2005 and 2008, the estate underwent an exceptionally comprehensive and sensitive restoration. The original floor plan and architectural character were preserved, while materials, details and craftsmanship were restored or recreated to the highest standard. The tower and its distinctive spire were reconstructed according to the original drawings, returning the villa to its historic silhouette for the first time in almost a century.

Arranged over four floors, the main residence offers six generously proportioned bedrooms with adjoining bathrooms, together with elegant reception rooms, dining room, drawing room and office. The basement includes storage, laundry and technical facilities, a sauna and wine cellar. Expansive terraces and the upper floors enjoy uninterrupted views across the Öresund.

The estate also includes a heated 8 × 14 metre swimming pool with pool house and a separate annex comprising a triple garage, basement storage and a fully equipped guest apartment. The approximately 3,900-square-metre grounds extend to a newly constructed seawall and wave-breaking quay, preserving both the gardens and the immediate connection to the water.

With Sofiero Palace as its neighbour and views towards Kronborg Castle, the location is among the most distinguished on the Swedish side of the Öresund. Central Helsingborg and the ferry connection to Denmark are approximately 6 kilometres away, Copenhagen and its international airport about one hour by car, and Ängelholm Airport around 25 minutes – offering exceptional accessibility, including for owners arriving by private aircraft.

Properties with documented royal connections rarely reach the open market. Hovmarskalksvillan brings together historic provenance, architectural distinction, meticulous restoration, waterfront living and outstanding international accessibility in one singular estate.

Villa Helsingborg (Sweden)

A total of 373 sq m is offered across living space and ancillary areas, with generous room proportions, expansive glazing and a layout designed equally well for private family life and larger social gatherings. The entrance level is characterised by open reception areas with large windows overlooking the secluded garden. Natural light flows throughout the floor, enhancing the connection between the interior and exterior. The upper living room has an almost pavilion-like character, with glazing on several sides and direct access to the enclosed terrace, where a fireplace and electric underfloor heating create an inviting setting during the colder months. One of the property’s most distinctive features is integrated into the central reception area of the house. Beneath the current floor construction, the former indoor swimming pool has been preserved, creating an extensive lounge and family room with an exceptional sense of space. For those who wish, there is an opportunity to bring the pool area back to life and restore an element of the house’s original character. The combination of the expansive garden, pool area and generous social spaces gives the property an almost unique atmosphere. The kitchen, finished in solid cherry wood, is positioned adjacent to the dining area and reception spaces, with a layout that works equally well for everyday living, larger dinners and entertaining. Several areas of the house offer direct access to patios, terraces and the surrounding greenery. The upper floor provides a more private part of the residence, with a family room, bedrooms and a terrace overlooking the Öresund. From the master bedroom, views open towards the water, creating an exceptional sense of space in the heart of Tågaborg’s classic villa neighbourhood. The private section also includes a bathroom and walk-in wardrobe, the latter of which could easily be converted into an additional bedroom. The lower-ground floor continues the home’s extensive accommodation with a bar, sauna, guest room, storage areas, technical spaces and an integrated garage beneath the house. Automatic bollards at the driveway enhance both privacy and convenience, while the garage and generous storage facilities provide highly practical features. The garden is spacious, private and enclosed by walls and mature greenery, with several outdoor seating areas. Despite the central location, the property enjoys an unexpectedly tranquil atmosphere, with the layout creating a clear sense of separation from its surroundings. This is a residence that combines the qualities of a private villa with leisure facilities and impressive spaces for entertaining.

Villa Helsingborg (Sweden)

Behind the black-painted wrought-iron fence at Michael Löfmans gata 1 stands one of Tågaborg’s most beautiful villas—a stately stone residence dating from 1924, distinguished by its steep gable, newly laid red-tiled roof, and a classical elegance that has only grown more refined with time. Between 2023 and 2025, the property underwent one of the area’s most extensive and meticulously executed renovations. The soul of the house has been carefully preserved—its proportions, decorative cornices, curved balcony balustrades, and the characteristic round windows overlooking the kitchen remain intact—while every surface, installation, and detail has been thoughtfully and consistently brought into the present day. The result is a home where everything has been completed and renewed, allowing its next owners to focus on what matters most: enjoying life within it. Michael Löfmans gata borders Vikingsbergsparken, one of Helsingborg’s most cherished green spaces, and from the upper-floor balconies the sea can be glimpsed through the treetops. From here, one can walk to schools, the beach, Pålsjö Forest, and the city’s cafés and restaurants before returning home through the lockable gates to a private garden that surrounds the house on all sides. The 624 sqm plot is mature and beautifully landscaped, having recently undergone a comprehensive redesign. Tall hedges, newly laid granite setts and cobblestones, and carefully selected plantings of rhododendrons, hydrangeas, and peonies ensure that the garden remains in bloom from early spring until late autumn. At the rear of the property, a raised 60 sqm terrace facing northwest provides the perfect setting for long dinners in the evening sun. At the front, there is parking for four vehicles, two installed Tesla charging stations, and a garage for one car. A custom-built stone staircase leads to a black entrance door, opening into a generous entrance hall that immediately sets the tone. Limestone flooring from Stiltje, light oak parquet flooring from Bjelin, a gracefully curved staircase clad in sisal carpet, and a sense of understated symmetry create an elegant flow throughout the home. The living room connects naturally to a bespoke library with floor-to-ceiling bookshelves. A fireplace forms the heart of the space, while windows facing three directions allow natural light to move beautifully through the room throughout the day. Beyond lies the dining room and the open-plan Kvik kitchen, installed in 2024, featuring composite worktops, marble splashbacks, and integrated Siemens appliances. The distinctive round windows—one of the home’s original architectural signatures—are positioned above both the sink and the cooker. The dining room opens directly onto the terrace, while a fully tiled bathroom completed in 2024 is conveniently located by the side entrance. The upper floor serves as the home’s private retreat. Here, a principal bedroom is accompanied by a walk-in wardrobe, alongside an additional bedroom and a room equally suited as a study or children’s bedroom. A bright family room opens onto a balcony, while a spacious bathroom with double washbasins also enjoys balcony access. Bjelin parquet flooring extends throughout the floor, complemented by elegant marble window sills. Beneath the vaulted dormer ceilings, a private attic level offers two large rooms and a walk-in wardrobe. This sophisticated space is ideal as a teenager’s suite, guest accommodation, or additional living quarters, with views across Tågaborg’s sea of red-tiled rooftops and glimpses of the Øresund shimmering between the trees. The former basement has been transformed into a fully integrated additional floor of 103 sqm. Underfloor-heated ceramic tile flooring unifies the various spaces, which include a spacious laundry room with double Electrolux washer and dryer sets and a drying cabinet, a billiard room, gym, sauna with shower, wine and food cellar, separate WC, and several practical storage rooms.

Villa Helsingborg (Sweden)

Villa Ester is an architect-designed stone residence that draws inspiration from classical architecture while offering a floor plan, material palette, and technical standard firmly rooted in contemporary living. Smooth rendered façades with rusticated corner detailing, white limestone mouldings, and a hipped metal roof lend the property a refined and timeless expression that harmonises with the neighbouring Art Nouveau and National Romantic villas without imitating them. The residence is arranged over three levels and entered through a private courtyard, revealing itself only once the gates are opened rather than from the street at first glance. Behind the masonry walls lies a heated swimming pool, a beautifully landscaped garden with mature plantings, clipped hedges and ornamental trees, as well as an elevated outdoor entertaining area sheltered beneath a painted pergola. Large-format stone paving extends from the automatic wrought-iron gates across the driveway, which is prepared with an electric vehicle charging point, and continues towards the main entrance. The pool is finished in blue mosaic tiles and framed by timber decking, discreetly screened by surrounding hedges that provide both privacy and shelter from the wind. From the courtyard, double timber doors open into an entrance hall with natural stone flooring. Inside, solid dark timber floors run throughout the main level, while a bespoke staircase in matching timber with glass and steel balustrades connects the floors. Throughout the home, timber-framed windows and French balconies with wrought-iron railings create a recurring architectural motif that links the interior spaces with the courtyard and gardens beyond. The entrance floor accommodates a library and home office enclosed by glass partitions and fitted with custom-built timber shelving, a living room centred around a double-sided gas fireplace framed in black steel, a dining room with direct access to the pergola terrace, and a bespoke kitchen crafted in dark timber with worktops and an island in light natural stone. The kitchen is fully equipped with premium Miele appliances. Adjacent to the entrance is a guest WC finished in black marble with a freestanding porcelain basin. The upper floor comprises two bedrooms and a shared bathroom clad in light natural stone, featuring a freestanding bathtub, separate shower area, and double washbasins. The walk-out lower ground floor is dedicated to the home's more private and social spaces. The principal bedroom overlooks the pool and opens directly onto the timber deck. This level also includes a walk-in wardrobe and one of the property's most luxurious rooms: a master bathroom finished in natural stone from floor to ceiling, complete with an integrated sauna featuring timber benches, a freestanding jacuzzi positioned against a natural stone feature wall, and a carefully curated material palette inspired by distinguished European luxury hotel spas. Also on this level are a lounge with direct access to the pool area, a laundry room, and storage facilities. Security and technology have been seamlessly integrated without compromising the architectural experience. Retractable security grilles protect the ground-floor windows, while alarm systems and smart controls for heating, sound, and lighting remain discreetly concealed from view. From Magnus Erikssons gata in Olympia, Helsingborg city centre, the Central Station with rail connections to Copenhagen and Stockholm, and the passenger ferry terminal to Helsingør can all be reached within a few minutes on foot. The restaurants and waterfront promenade of Norra Hamnen are within easy cycling distance, as are Helsingborg City Theatre and the city's beaches. The property offers the rare combination of a central location in one of Sweden's largest cities and the tranquillity of a cohesive villa neighbourhood characterised by its elegant turn-of-the-century architecture.

Villa Helsingborg (Sweden)

Wachtmeisters väg 29A is elevated high on the escarpment in Laröd, one of Helsingborg’s most established and sought-after residential villa areas. Here, you live with the sea and the Sound just below, Sofiero Palace within close reach, and Helsingborg city centre, services and the motorway network all within approximately ten minutes. The location offers an unusual combination of seclusion, natural surroundings and proximity to the city. The property comprises 6,782 square metres of land and is one of the larger plots in the area. The size of the plot, its elevation changes and overall structure provide excellent potential for future development or adaptation of the existing buildings, subject to the usual planning and building permits. There is also the possibility of creating a connection down to the seafront promenade, further enhancing the relationship with the sea. The existing buildings are currently arranged as two separate dwellings, offering an unusually flexible living solution. At the same time, there are strong possibilities to combine the spaces into a generous single-family residence, ideal for multi-generational living or for a family seeking a balance between togetherness and privacy. The total living area amounts to 279 square metres, complemented by 144 square metres of basement space with versatile potential uses. The buildings are in need of modernisation and have been unoccupied for an extended period. This is therefore a property primarily aimed at buyers who value location, land and future development potential rather than a move-in-ready home. The combination of the large plot, elevated position and proximity to the sea makes this an exceptional offering on the Helsingborg market. What is being offered here is a place where the fundamentals matter most—the location, the land and the opportunity to create something tailored to one’s own needs and ambitions, in an area where the availability of comparable properties is extremely limited. Laröd is one of Helsingborg’s most attractive residential areas, appreciated for its blend of tranquillity, local services and closeness to the city. The area offers popular schools from preschool through grade 9, convenient local amenities including a Hemköp grocery store, restaurants and postal services, as well as an active community life through Hittarps IK, tennis and padel facilities. Efficient transport connections provide quick access to central Helsingborg, while the neighbourhood retains its safe and well-established character. Welcome to a viewing – please contact the responsible real estate agent.
