Engelstedsgade 16, 1.

Do you dream of the feeling of a house of your own with soul, rustic charm and your very own private postage stamp of a garden in the middle of sought-after Østerbro? Welcome to Engelstedsgade 16, 1. In the historic Lyngbyvejskvarter neighbourhood, we now present this fantastic townhouse hybrid, which unfolds over 3 superb floors plus an extremely useful basement level (180 glorious square metres of floor space in all).

Forget sterile new builds – here you get a home packed with historic DNA, ornate plaster ceilings, original floorboards and an irresistible atmosphere of warmth and idyll.

The first floor: the beating heart of shared living.

As you step onto the first floor, you immediately sense the home’s unique soul. Light streams beautifully into the open-plan kitchen-diner and the adjoining sitting room, graced by a charming wood-burning stove. This floor is devoted to family time, informal weekday dinners and rustic cosiness, while the city hums gently outside.

The second and third floors: perfect zoning for privacy.

Where traditional flats often lack separation, the three floors here offer the ultimate balance between togetherness and privacy. The second floor has two large, cosy rooms (ideal as a children’s area) and a smart, practical bathroom. Carry on up to the third floor/mansard storey and you are met by a secluded haven with exposed beams and a vaulted ceiling. The perfect parents’ retreat, teenage zone or inspiring home office, raised well above the noise of everyday life.

Garden life in Østerbro & VIP parking right by the door.

While other flat buyers have to make do with a small balcony, here you get your own patch of green in the form of a lovely private front and back garden. As an invaluable everyday luxury rarely seen in Østerbro, parking spaces have been laid out right in front of this particular block’s entrance. You live in a peaceful village within the city, within walking distance of the metro at Vibenshus Runddel, the green paths of Fælledparken and Østerbro’s best cafés.

In short:
A rare and atmospheric home that perfectly combines the feel of a townhouse, unrivalled floor space for both private and shared living, and the everyday luxury of your own garden and parking right outside the door.

This home lends itself to a good family life, with room for both togetherness and privacy. The 3rd floor is currently a very special teenager’s room, but could also be used as a quiet, comfortable place to work from home. Having two toilets plus a separate bathroom is an added bonus for a large family.

The neighbourhood is a wonderful place to grow up, with a community hall, a Shrovetide carnival (fastelavn), flea markets, summer parties and a spectacular Halloween. The street has its own café, and with Sankt Kjelds plads, Tåsinge plads and Skjolds plads there are several good cafés and restaurants within walking distance.
