Scharinska villa, Victorian residence in Umeå, Sweden.

The three-story pink building features arched windows on the ground floor, wrought iron balconies, and a gabled crest over the windows.

Architect Ragnar Östberg designed this residential villa in 1904 for the Unander-Scharin family, with construction completed in 1905 at a cost of 94,000 kronor.

The Spanish Hall contains walls covered in imported Spanish mosaics, while the remaining interior displays sophisticated wooden panel craftsmanship.

The municipality of Umeå maintains ownership of the building, which requires advance arrangements for visits and guided tours through the official website.

The front entrance displays a relief depicting seven children's faces among foliage, representing the Scharin family members who first inhabited the villa.
