A Restored Historic Estate On The Shores Of Lake Orlången

Occupying a magnificent position beside Lake Orlången, this distinguished estate combines historic grandeur with an exceptional standard of preservation. The residence is presented in outstanding condition following a comprehensive renovation completed in 2020. Offering approximately 440 square metres of total floor area, the property comprises 13 rooms and two kitchens, thoughtfully arranged to provide generous and versatile living spaces.

The former main residence was built in 1859-1860 and subsequently extended and remodelled during the 1890’s. The estate’s origins, however, date back much further, with its predecessor first documented in the 1570’s. Both the exterior and interior of the residence largely retain the appearance established during the nineteenth-century remodelling by architect Henrik Tegnér. The oldest section reflects the characteristic architecture of Swedish manor farmhouses of the period, with a central projecting gable, a mansard roof and a traditional six-room layout.

The house is currently divided into two separate residences, each with its own entrance. A simple partition wall on both the ground and upper floors can easily be removed, allowing the entire house to be reunited as one substantial family home. An additional building of approximately 50 square metres is situated adjacent to the main house and is well suited for guest or staff accommodation.

The courtyard, complete with a fountain, leads into a park-like garden distinguished by numerous beautiful mature oak trees. Scenic walking paths follow the lakeshore, while your private boat provides opportunities to explore the small islands scattered across the lake, or visit the popular Sundby Gård restaurant by water.

The surrounding land is largely protected as a nature reserve, preserving the natural beauty and tranquillity of the setting. Former estate buildings in the vicinity, including stables and machinery halls, are now owned by the municipality.

Despite its peaceful lakeside location and historic character, the estate lies only approximately 20 minutes south of Stockholm, offering a rare combination of rural tranquillity, architectural heritage and convenient access to the capital.
