luxury villa with terrace for sale Glumslöv, 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.

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.

There are streets in Gamla Viken where time seems to move more slowly, where the medieval street layout still guides your steps and the old traditional houses remain aligned with the street, their gardens tucked away behind them. It is on one such street that this home is situated. Behind the weathered wooden fence and the gnarled canopy of the tree by the gate, the plot opens towards the sea, and between the rooftops below, the Öresund stretches out, blue and close at hand. The house is a single-storey villa beneath a tiled roof, finished in a muted, light colour that complements the character of the village. It quickly becomes apparent that this is a lovingly maintained home. Inside, warm earth-toned tiled floors run through the shared living spaces, while a substantial ceiling beam lends character to the dining room. Arched openings connect the kitchen, dining room and living room into a cohesive and highly livable whole. The home is filled with natural light throughout the year, and from both the dining area and kitchen, the eye naturally rests on the water while preparing meals or setting the table. The 145 sq m of living space includes bedrooms in peaceful positions, an additional room that could equally serve as an office or guest room, and two bathrooms that make both everyday life and entertaining comfortable. Beneath the main living area is a finished basement with a laundry room, storage and an additional room – the kind of valuable extra space that quietly makes a house far more versatile than its official square metres might suggest, whether used for exercise, hobbies or an extra sleeping area when guests arrive. It is outdoors, however, that the house perhaps shows itself at its very best. The wooden deck is beautifully arranged around the swimming pool, with plenty of space for both long dinners and peaceful afternoons in the sun. Clipped hedges, lavender and planted borders add greenery and structure, while an outdoor shower is perfect after a long day at the beach. A separate storage building provides additional space and possibilities. The private driveway offers parking for two cars, including an EV charging point. Living in Viken means being part of one of Kullabygden’s oldest communities, a historic fishing and maritime village with roots dating back to the Middle Ages. Captain’s residences and preserved buildings tell the story of a time when the village’s life revolved around the sea. Around the turn of the 20th century, Viken became a popular seaside resort, a character that remains today. The waterfront promenade, bathing spots and harbour are all within walking distance, as are the amenities of the village centre, while Helsingborg is easily accessible for everything else everyday life requires.
