Skattergade 22

A classic townhouse can now be yours, right in the middle of Svendborg – in the sweet spot between the town’s vibrant charm and the harbour’s relaxed atmosphere. The marina and the beach, popular for bracing morning dips, are only a short walk away. This fine end-of-terrace house has stood here for more than 170 years, and it is part of the beautiful cobbled street with its blue façade, white-framed windows with glazing bars and red tiles

The house is steeped in soul and history and has lovely light from several sides, as it is the last in the row and stands open towards the town and the railway. The house is thoroughly insulated against both noise and heat loss, so it screens out traffic noise well. It sits on a sunny plot that ensures sun all day in the courtyard with its granite paving flanked by half-timbering, and in the small, cosy garden behind the rear building. The rear building, which is on two levels, offers the chance to add extra square metres to enjoy, either by renovating it or by building a new one to the same dimensions.
The possibilities are many, and you could also consider a garage, a carport or a parking space instead of the back garden, or, for example, a connecting passage between the two buildings.

The charm continues inside, where 125 m2 is spread over two levels. On the ground floor there is a lovely open-plan kitchen-diner with a living room, a room and a large bathroom. On the first floor there are two rooms and a landing. The loft and rafters have been newly renovated, so opening the ceiling up to the ridge is an obvious option. There are exposed beams and woodwork throughout the house. Natural slate tiles run throughout the ground floor, and there are solid, golden oak floors in all the other rooms.
The history is unmistakable, but there has been no compromise on modern comfort or facilities either, as you will notice in both the bathroom and the kitchen, which make for a home life centred on well-being and cosiness.

Svendborg’s townscape is characterised by beautiful old buildings, scenic surroundings and a cosy atmosphere. You will be settling right in the centre of town, on a narrow, lively cobbled street less than 300 metres from Svendborg station. You are surrounded by shops and cultural life, and the harbour and the water are just a few steps from home, with a maritime atmosphere and access to the whole of Det Sydfynske Øhav (the South Funen Archipelago). There are of course schools and childcare within walking distance, while the upper secondary school can be reached by bike.
