I have got very carried away with sharing idyllic Scandinavian escapes lately (can you guess my mind is very much in holiday mode?), so today, I thought I’d share something a little different—less fjords and coastal cabins, more lofty ceilings and leafy houseplants. Yep, we’re staying in Sweden, but this time it’s all about urban charm in the capital city!
This characterful home is actually tucked inside what used to be a church – and now sits high above the streets of southern Stockholm. From the outside, you’d never guess there's a plant-filled, bohemian sanctuary hidden under those eaves. Inside, it’s a relaxed world of boho charm: there are sky-high ceilings, exposed beams that give it a rustic touch, and natural light pouring in from every angle.
The layout is open and airy, with a lovely flow between the kitchen and living space, plus a balcony for morning coffees or a spot of evening people-watching. The mix of old architecture and lived-in, personal style makes this place feel really special, like a little pocket of calm in the middle of the city.
Let's take the tour!
The William Morris wallpaper is such a gorgeous touch (that rich, timeless pattern always gets me), and the retro furniture and lighting bring everything together in a nice way. I also really liked how they’ve designed the children’s room – proof that a shared space for little ones can be both practical and personal, with a thoughtful mix of open shelving and hidden storage.
What do you think of this style? Anything in particular that caught your eye?

I wish I had a green thumb, but alas, plants wither on the vine under my care. Oh, and I have cats, so the plants we do have (thanks to my husband) are up high. All that greenery is so inviting! I would spend every spare moment on the balcony ... or in the sitting area in the loft. The stove/oven is a charmer, and there are lots of fun little details to look at. I wish there was an exterior photo. The only con that I see is that the stair railing would make me very nervous if I had little ones in the house.
ReplyDeleteI forgot to say .... I'm in love with the wallpaper. Dreamy.
