Villa Lyckebo – an Art Nouveau villa from 1906 with a sunny lot

Villa Lyckebo is well-preserved and thoughtfully updated; it was designed by architect Rudolf Enblom and built in 1910. The period charm of its Art Nouveau style remains clearly evident following a complete renovation of both the villa and the garden in 2020–2021, and the interior is now characterized by a high modern standard that respects the villa’s origins. Its elevated and unobstructed location on Burevägen, combined with a generous lot of 2,595 square meters, creates a secluded setting with ample sunlight and beautiful views of the surrounding greenery.

With a total area of 342 square meters, eight rooms, and at least four bedrooms, the villa offers impressive living spaces and a floor plan that works well even for a larger family. The entry level has a distinctly social character with generous connections between rooms. Here, classic hardwood floors, large windows, and meticulous woodwork come together with a light and cohesive color scheme. The living room, featuring a bay window and a fireplace, opens onto the dining room, where doors lead out to the sheltered porch and the garden. The spacious kitchen features a simple, classic design with ample counter space and storage, seamlessly integrated into the villa’s architecture.

The upper level accommodates several well-proportioned bedrooms with built-in walk-in closets and air conditioning. The private master bedroom is complemented by an adjoining ensuite dressing room and a west-facing balcony. Additional bedrooms and bathrooms on the same level provide great flexibility to meet the family’s needs. The bathrooms have been tastefully renovated with materials that harmonize with the home’s character. The beautifully curved staircase connects the floors and adds further character to the interior. The finished attic offers additional flexibility with a family room and spaces that can be used as bedrooms, a home office, or more private living areas. In addition, there is a full basement with generous ceiling height and limestone floors, featuring a utility entrance, a guest room/teen room/family room, a bathroom, a wine cellar/gym, a large built-in laundry room, and a utility room.

Electric cast-iron gates and a period-style fence frame the property and, together with its elevated location, create a private and secluded environment. The driveway is beautifully paved with cobblestones and leads up to the double garage. The property was carefully landscaped in 2021 with generous plantings, large lawns, a spacious gravel courtyard, and several patios, including a newly built 90-square-meter one that enjoys sun all day long. The garden is a significant part of Villa Lyckebo’s character, and the covered veranda provides a sheltered outdoor space, while the patios allow you to follow the sun throughout the day.

This is a very prestigious and well-maintained home where generous spaces, high quality, and one of Djursholm’s most attractive locations come together naturally. The location offers proximity to Framnäsviken, with its boat club and walking paths along the water, as well as several schools, tennis courts, a golf club, Slottsparken, and downtown Djursholm with a wide range of services and restaurants. The bus stop to Mörby C and the subway and Roslagsbanan at Altorp Station are also nearby.
