Villa Asea

The Villa Asea features tarred logs, chipboard panels, stained glass windows, saddle roofs with clay tiles, and prominent red brick chimneys at Villagatan 1.

Built between 1907 and 1908, the residence served as home to ASEA company directors, starting with Sigfrid Edström who commissioned the construction without board approval.

Architect Erik Hahr incorporated elements from medieval stave churches and fortified towers into the design of this sixteen-room industrial executive residence.

The property includes modern amenities such as an elevator and cooling system, while maintaining its original interior layout from the early twentieth century.

The surrounding grounds combine parkland and woodland elements, featuring stone inscriptions, walls, staircases, and decorative gates with stone gateposts.
