Needin' Sweden 

I know! I know! Bad title but cool home. Nothing pretentious or stuffy. Nothing precious or über cool. Just a lovely inviting apartment in one of Gothenburg's oldest Landshövdingehus. Three things I really love ... the limed floor as opposed to the white painted floors we are used to seeing in Swedish homes, the as usual stunning kakelugn (tiled stove) and the upstairs bedroom retreat but you'll have to wait until after the jump for that one.  For sale here.

It's a small net world! :) The other day I saw these pics over at Stadshem because my dear friends are on the hunt for a new apartment and they told me to have look... It is a stunning home and it's in my lovely city! Thanks for posting and have a beautiful day!
