Villa Wehtje, Modern villa in Danderyd Municipality, Sweden

Villa Wehtje is a two-storey house at Strandvägen 21 in Djursholm, built in 1939 to designs by Nils Tesch and Lars Magnus Giertz. It has a hipped, metal-clad gable roof, brick facades with light-coloured thin render, and a single-storey pavilion-like extension to the south. The garden plot runs between Strandvägen and Danavägen and looks out over Stora Värtan.

The first villa on the site was built in 1896 for industrialist Jean Bolinder, designed by architect Rudolf Enblom in the National Romantic style; a 1:100 scale model of it still exists. The current villa was commissioned by Walter Wehtje, CEO of Atlas Copco from 1940 to 1957, and his wife Gurli, daughter of Paul U. Bergström. In 1939 they hired architects Lars Magnus Giertz and Nils Tesch, who grew up in Djursholm, to design it. Builder John Mattson later lived here for many years.

Since 2013 the villa has housed the residence of Ecuador's ambassador to Stockholm, so the house is not open to visitors. The name Wehtje comes from the building couple: Walter Wehtje, CEO of Atlas Copco 1940–1957, and his wife Gurli, daughter of Paul U. Bergström. Their neighbour at Strandvägen 19 is Villa Pauli.

The villa is private but can be viewed from outside along Strandvägen, offering clear views of its modern design from the street. The setting is easily accessible, and the building is straightforward to locate as an example of Swedish residential architecture from this period.
