Riksrådsvägen, Residential complex in Skarpnäcks gård, Sweden

Riksrådsvägen is a residential area in Skarpnäcks gård with rows of connected houses that share unified architectural features. Each home has its own garden space while maintaining consistent building styles throughout the development.

The complex was developed in the mid-twentieth century as Stockholm expanded, designed by architects Léonie and Charles-Edouard Geisendorf. It represents the postwar modernization efforts that reshaped Swedish residential planning.

The four green courtyards give the rows a village character; there are no fences, and each house's small garden is separated from its neighbour only by shrubs. A grocery shop once stood at the centre of the settlement but disappeared in the 1980s. The houses were rented out from the start, with priority for families with many children, until they became condominiums in 2000.

The houses stand on steep, wooded terrain at the southern end of Riksrådsvägen, so the lanes follow the slope and the four green courtyards sit at different levels. There are no fences between plots; low bushes mark each small, screened terrace. The 1952 plan by Sven Markelius and Göran Sidenbladh still governs the layout, and the former grocery store in the middle closed in the 1980s.

The 114 houses were built with prefabricated Erge concrete slabs and beams and partly prefabricated facade blocks, assembled so that most of the forest was kept; no fences separate the plots, only shrubs. Two planned garage rows were never built, and the food shop in the middle closed in the 1980s.
