4 Lokevägen - Hersby, Lidingö
Located in one of Hersby’s most sought-after and established residential neighborhoods, where lush greenery abounds and tranquility reigns, this high-end 1920s villa offers a total of approximately 325 square meters, spread across 10 rooms and a kitchen. Beautifully situated on a secluded lot with a sunny southwest exposure, the property exudes a natural sense of grandeur—an architectural whole where classic elegance and contemporary comfort interact with precision. The villa was built in 1923 and carefully expanded in 1995, with ongoing and meticulous renovations between 2015 and 2025 that have refined the home without compromising its original spirit.
From the very first step inside, you are greeted by an atmosphere that exudes spaciousness and balance. Light pours generously through tall, mullioned windows and reflects off light surfaces, while a ceiling height of approximately 2.8 meters, combined with period details in the Swedish Grace style, creates a sense of understated grandeur. The custom-built kitchen has been crafted with great care and an eye for materials, where marble countertops and backsplashes harmonize with classic woodwork quality. Here, aesthetics and function come together as a natural whole, featuring generous workspace and high-end appliances from Miele and Ilve. The fireplace in the kitchen serves as a natural focal point, adding both warmth and character. From here, you can access the lush garden and the sunny southwest-facing terrace, where the afternoon and evening sun become a natural part of daily life, and social gatherings often linger long after the day has ended.
Upstairs, a private and tranquil realm unfolds, featuring four spacious bedrooms, ample storage, and two stylish marble-clad bathrooms. A sense of calm and harmony prevails here, with each room enjoying its own light and rhythm. The upper level also features a beautiful original tiled stove from the year of construction, 1923—an atmospheric element that further anchors the home in its history.
The lower level offers a more secluded and luxurious part of the home, featuring a large living room, a spacious wine cellar, an inviting spa area with a sauna, and a well-equipped laundry room with space for a treadmill, for example. Water-based radiant floor heating enhances comfort. It is found in all rooms except for two bedrooms and the TV area on the upper level. A floor plan that creates space for both relaxation and everyday functionality.
The garden is a private oasis—secluded, mature, and bathed in sunlight from morning to evening. Here, fruit trees share the space with generous lawns and several patios, as well as a garden shed that provides practical storage. Recently installed awnings, new fencing, and an electric gate. For those interested, there is also the opportunity to explore further development of the property, such as a gatehouse. There is an architect-designed proposal for a new entrance and exit to the patio, including a pool.
A home in perfect balance—where architecture, location, and quality of life come together in a rare, harmonious whole. Here you live in one of Lidingö’s most sought-after areas, close to schools, public transportation, sports facilities, water, and scenic walking paths—while still enjoying easy access to downtown Stockholm.

Hersby forms the heart of the historic Lidingö villa town – an internationally influenced villa town concept from the early 1900s, created as a healthy and nature-oriented counterpoint to the dense urban environments of industrialism. Here, bourgeois ideals of light, air, and family life come together in one of the Stockholm region's best-preserved cultural environments.
The area is characterized by small-scale roads adapted to the terrain, with an almost rural character, large generous plots, and detached houses with spacious intervals between them. The irregular urban plan creates a soft and organic structure where nature is allowed to take its place.
The architecture is consistently high class. Individually designed turn-of-the-century villas in Art Nouveau and National Romantic styles coexist with later additions – many in well-preserved and authentic condition. Large natural and garden plots with oak trees, pines, fruit trees, and hedges contribute to the area's lush and prestigious character.
The building rights in the area are generous and follow the original villa town concept. It allows the buildings on the plot to occupy a cubic volume corresponding to the area of the plot, which creates good opportunities for both representative main buildings and well-balanced complementary structures. In addition, there is the right to erect a gatehouse of approximately 30 square meters—a classic and period-typical feature of the environment.
Today, Hersby is recognized as a culturally and historically valuable environment and is considered one of Lidingö's most sought-after and architecturally cohesive residential areas—where history, quality, and quality of life come together in an unusually harmonious whole.
