The Association

The property was built in 1897–98 based on plans by architect A. G. Forsberg, one of the most sought-after architects of the time for residential buildings in the Malm districts. The developer was OK Hellström. The property has three entrances: Rådmansgatan 10, Östermalmsgatan , and Danderydsgatan 22, with a total of 47 apartments of various sizes. A very solid, debt-free, genuine homeowners’ association with a very low maintenance fee per square meter. Annual dividends are distributed to the association from interest-bearing investments. Substantial cash reserves, derived in part from the conversion of the attic space into condominiums.

The property is in very good condition, and no major renovations are planned.

The association allows joint ownership. Legal entities are not accepted as members. Transfer and mortgage fees are charged in accordance with the bylaws. Subletting may be approved with the board’s consent. Members must be registered at the address.

A shared, modern laundry room located at Östermalmsgatan . The pleasant courtyard features a barbecue area, a bulk trash room, and bicycle racks. Each condominium unit comes with a basement storage unit.

History

The building was constructed in 1897–98 based on plans by architect A. G. Forsberg. In 1913, parts of the attic were expanded with a frontispiece facing Danderydsplan. The frontispiece was demolished during the renovation in 1968, when the remaining parts of the attic were converted into apartments. The 1968 addition is significantly lower than the 1913 addition. Changes were also made to the apartments during the 1969 renovation. In 2022–23, another attic floor was completed.

During the 1870s and 1880s, the City Council adopted the so-called Lindhagen Plan, and in accordance with it, the boundaries of the Lärkan and Domherren blocks were established. The Lärkan block was the first to be developed, and thus the area took its name, Lärkstaden or Lärkstan.

Across from Östermalmsgatan is the School of Architecture. After the School of Architecture left “its” building and moved to KTH, the space is now home to a number of startups and the nationally renowned bakery and café Mr. Cake. The building has been renamed A-House.
