Take an evening swim when you get home from work and sit and look out over the water from the terrace at the top during dinner. Two large patios fit for this unique houseboat with the possibility of permanent residents. Entrée accommodate site-built sofa and hallway with coat hangers. Furthermore, you can reach the master bedroom with adjoining walk-in closet with small sky-light, and sliding door. Adjacent to the bedroom, luxury bathroom with space built in teak tub, double sinks, separate shower and wall-hung toilet and heated towel rail. The guest toilet is decorated with stained glass and teak.

An additional bedroom with space built bunk bed with a small walk-in closet that can easily be converted into the toilet (wired). Plenty of windows, notade ekplankgolv and bright colors. A staircase leads up to the wheelhouse, which is a large open room. Windows overlooking 360 degrees and doors to exit to the upper deck. Downstairs, we find a large and open kitchen to living room that gives an incredible feeling to four feet in height, its glass ceiling and fireplace. You can sit large parties under a starry sky. Opportunity to acquire a unique accommodation with fabulous views in the city center.

If your big dream is to live aboard a boat, and if you are not afraid of huge heating bills, this one is currently offered at nearly $800,000.

Its present appearance is tasteful and inspiring, which is why we decided to showcase it on Freshome. The apartment has no less than 700 square feet and is structured as follows: an open plan living room with dining and kitchen area, a transparent bedroom, a large hallway, dressing room and two bathrooms. The layout approach is daring, as the architect decided to go for an open, connected space, welcoming socializing. However, the living, kitchen and bedroom areas are cleverly delimited through the use of colors, textures and glass accordingly. Floor to ceiling windows ensure a large degree of natural light inside the loft.

I especially like the separation of the bedroom with the glass wall and curtains – what better way to divide space when you don’t have much of it?

The interior is typically Swedish: elegant and understated, with mid-century modern-inspired furniture.

This great brass lamp hamonizes so well with the round table below!

And you said you don’t like wires running all over: just look at this and you’ll see that they can very nicely fit into an interior if done well.

Separated where necessary but still wide-open space

The factory consists of a newly renovated apartment of 300 m2 on the first floor. Towards the lake is a large balcony and a 25 feet long, westward facing facade. The rest of the 1st floor is one big, raw, open space, with windows on 3 sides. Space can be divided as needed.

On the ground floor there is one large room of approx. 500 m2 which can be divided as needed. The rest of the ground floor is divided into smaller rooms. Floor appears very raw and edgy.

The developer’s plan is to create loft apartments from this space – who wouldn’t want to live here?

The large windows provide natural light out of the ordinary at the same time, together with the generous ceiling height, contributes to the apartment’s airy feel. When the sun disappears from the east balcony, it takes only a minute before it reaches the west. This means that you can always choose to sit in the sun or in shade. Enjoy a wonderful view of the historic port and river environment.

A cool bedroom which easily accommodates a double bed with bedside tables. A glass door leads out to the apartment’s east balcony where you can enjoy the morning sun and views over the dock down to the river.

 The bathroom is in a stylish and timeless design with white tiled walls and gray, slate-like tiled floors. The glass-enclosed shower corner is equipped with both overhead shower and hand nozzle. 

The realtors at Eklund Stockholm New York describe the apartment as a:

truly spectacular and definitely a must see cause there is no other place like this one. Enjoy your own private outdoor space, a lofty feel, nice open spaces and great renovations.

With its white and bright background, the apartment steals the attention with an interesting mixture of natural colours, accentuated by red and black. In the middle of the living room, a hammock dangles from the double-height ceiling, offering the possibility of relaxing in an unusual way. The large open rooms of the loft create a modern space with everything you need: a double-height living room, a fully equipped kitchen, a bedroom and a kids room, a contemporary dressing room and an open office space/library.

Located on the top floor of a very attractive building on one of the most desired addresses in Stockholm. The apartment has gone through complete renovations where no details have been spared. Exclusive materials and appliances by the Italian brand Boffi has been used in both kitchen and bathroom. The residence features an open and very spacious living area with a fantastic wood burning fire place, a custom built bookshelf that emphasizes the height and shape of the ceiling and separate dining area from where you can enjoy the wonderful views over Östermalmstorg.

The dining area is vibrant with an array of color contrasts throughout. Bold colors on carpet and art pieces on the walls. Everything adds to the aura of perfection.

Each room has a different theme and the furnishing matches it. The whole house is lavish and interiors are plush. The kids room looks adorable with fluffy brown blankets and stuff toys all around. The bathroom looks like its of a 5 star hotel. What more can one ask for?
