Jerichausgade 33

It is certainly not every day that the terraced houses here in Humleby come up for sale – but now you have the chance to get the keys to one of these sought-after homes. Jerichausgade 33 is now ready to welcome its new owners, and with the keys comes a sublime everyday life close to everything that makes Copenhagen a fantastic city.

Humleby is something quite special: here you live in a world of your own, where it is hard to imagine that Vesterbrogade, the district’s main artery, is rushing along so close by. Humleby was originally built for the workers at the long-gone B&W shipyard, to designs by the architect Frederik Bøttger, and 235 houses were built in all, of which this one at Jerichausgade 33 dates from 1886.

The house’s 132 m² are spread over three floors, and on top of that there is a loft room, a mezzanine and an excavated basement of a further 47 m² with water-based underfloor heating. You can also look forward to the home’s charming courtyard garden, which actually has a front-row view of the green space ‘Østen for Humlen’ – so there are no neighbours at the back, making this one of the most private properties in the area.

The home is heated by district heating, and the front door opens onto the ground floor, which has an entrance hall and a truly fantastic open-plan family room with underfloor heating. Here the kitchen, dining room and living room flow into one, with lovely direct access to the courtyard garden, so the indoor and outdoor spaces can merge into one during the warmer months. The 1st floor has a cosy sitting room, a room, a small storeroom and a large bathroom, while the 2nd floor has a toilet and no fewer than three rooms, one of which has a ceiling open to the roof ridge. From the 2nd floor there is access to a loft room and a mezzanine, both offering good scope for storage, for instance, or for relaxing with the most beautiful view of the stars after the sun has gone down.

Humleby is possibly one of Copenhagen’s cosiest neighbourhoods, and you have the chance to become part of a close-knit community that places great value on togetherness. Here neighbours help each other out in all sorts of ways, and the little streets of Humleby are streets for lingering and playing, with local traffic only. The location is also unique, as you are right between the new and fashionable Carlsberg Byen and charming old Vesterbro.
