Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
This truly unique home is set over three floors with high ceilings, exposed beams and classically Danish design elements throughout. First built in 1755, it's been transformed into an incredible space that perfectly suits modern living. Brilliantly located in an area buzzing with activity, the building helps to block any noise from the outside world – providing you with the best of both worlds. You enter the home through a little courtyard to find the first couple of floors taken up by well-appointed bedrooms with soothing neutral colour palettes that help you drift off at the end of the day. However, it's the open-plan top floor that is the undoubted star of the show. It's an ideal space for socialising as you hang out by the kitchen counter and relax in the chillout area before sitting down for dinner at the large, ten-seater dining table. And if you'd like to treat yourself to a meal out, you've got too many options to mention within a short walk. Plus, with Amalienborg Palace and Nyhavn just around the corner, you won't have to go far to experience the best of Copenhagen.
