Welcome to a renovated century-old apartment in Stockholm, Sweden. Discovered by Freshome on the real estate brokerage website of Skeppsholmen, this five-room Scandinavian home inspires functionality and comfort. Many of the historic building’s original elements have been preserved, one reason why it exudes so much charm.
High ceilings, chest panels, pine floors and generously sized windows define this 1,900-square-foot apartment, located in Stockholm’s lovely Vasastan district.
From the welcoming hall, you reach the kitchen and dining area, which features a cooking island, a tiled stove and a table for eight. The next three rooms, each with its own distinct personality, face the street. An old pharmacy cabinet in one was creatively transformed into a work table thanks to a stainless steel countertop.
A delightful mix of furnishings defines the living room, a gathering space filled with muted colors and natural light. The fireplace’s ceramic finish adds a familiar tone to the mix. A kitchen staircase leads up to a sunroom with a roof terrace, offering residents the chance to take in the pulse of the city. What do you think of this eclectic Stockholm apartment?

Whimsical Blend of Modern and Traditional Design: Equestrian Club Residence
Completed by Krista Watterworth Design Studio, this stylish family residence in Wellington, Florida, United States inspires harmony throughout. The Equestrian Club project borrows its name from the local passion for horseback riding: “The homeowner, whose daughter is quite the skilled competitor, decided to purchase a home in Wellington to immerse her daughter in its equestrian culture. Although the tradition of her community and the quiet calm of Wellington appealed to her, she wanted a home that suited her taste and personality, a home that blended modern, traditional, and whimsical both subtly and effortlessly.”
As you step inside, you are greeted by a breezy atmosphere generated by a soft color palette in white hues. Floor-to-ceiling windows flood the interiors in natural light, while connecting them to the fresh natural environment outdoors. An open plan living area provides a refined background for social gatherings. The gray table set, chandelier and paintings create a modern dining area, which easily stands out. For a quick brunch, the small table with orange framed chairs in the kitchen provides an appropriate setting. All in all, this is a place exuding elegance and good vibes which we believe will cheer you up! [Photography by Jessica Glynn]
