Vikingsborgsvägen 38

Welcome to a beautifully preserved archipelago dream in the style of Art Nouveau and National Romanticism, dating back to 1904. This wonderful summer retreat offers waterfront land, a boathouse, and a private dock with sailing depth, set on a large natural plot with a mature garden and wide-open sea views. The property enjoys a highly sought-after location on Hästholmen – Stegesund.

Villa Vikingaviken was built in 1903–1904 by master builder Lars Pettersson. Constructed in rendered stone, the villa features divided-pane windows and green window shutters. In 1912, the house was redesigned by the architectural firm led by Ivar Tengbom, when an additional floor was added and the northern gable was extended, making it one of the largest villas on the island.

The villa comprises 14 rooms with generous social spaces, several bedrooms, a punch veranda, a whisky room, two roof terraces, and a balcony. There are several working tiled stoves, and the large drawing room features an open fireplace. The home also contains a well-preserved mural from 1929 by the artist Jerk Werkmäster, depicting the property and its former owners.

Hästholmen – Stegesund is one of the best-preserved areas of turn-of-the-century summer villas along the historic shipping route leading into Stockholm, where the island’s original character remains intact. The island offers small gravel roads for walking or cycling, a tennis court, and a traditional Midsummer celebration. From the property, it is about a 6–7 minute walk to the Vikingsborg steamship pier. The island is served by regular ferry routes operated by Waxholmsbolaget, departing from Vaxholm or from Strömkajen near the Grand Hôtel in central Stockholm.
