Spring sunlight streams through the 2.55-metre-high windows in the ground-floor apartments. The spacious interiors are filled with turn-of-the-century charm.
Four-metre ceilings, tiled stoves, ornate stucco, and herringbone parquet floors – that’s what greets you as you step into the newly renovated apartments on Seminariegatan 1, in the heart of Skellefteå.
The old seminary stands at the intersection by Baldergymnasiet and OKQ8 on Kanalgatan.
The new apartments on Seminariegatan are now complete.
The old seminary opened in the early 1900s.
The facade was renovated in the 1970s.
The building houses ten turn-of-the-century apartments, ranging from 81 to 183 square metres. These include everything from two-room to four-room units spread across the three-story building. On the first and second floors, there are four apartments each, and on the top floor, two apartments.
The apartments are designed in a 1920s style, with many character-defining details, while the kitchens and appliances have been designed and built in a more modern style.

The real estate firm HusmanHagberg is handling the sale of the apartments. Four of the ten apartments were sold before they were even listed on the market, and now the remaining six apartments at Seminariegatan 1 are up for sale. Realtor Emelie Edergard from HusmanHagberg is responsible for the sale.
– It’s incredibly exciting and inspiring to be involved in such a unique project, says Edergard, who has been a realtor for twelve years.
– I’ve never seen anything like this for sale in Skellefteå and I probably won’t again.

The realtor, Emelie Edergard, indicates that there is "a lot of interest" in the apartments. She mentions that inquiries are coming mostly from people within Skellefteå, but also from outside the region, suggesting a broad appeal. She believes this is a "rare opportunity" for those seeking a unique home with charm, which could further explain the high level of interest

The company Nåiden Bostad purchased the old seminar building from Skellefteå Municipality at the end of 2021.
The building is heritage-listed (K-märkt) and was originally intended for office or commercial use, which meant they had to apply for a change in the zoning plan to convert it into residential apartments.
In 2023, they received building permits, and the apartments have been ready since March of this year.
The building was constructed in 1907 as a training facility for future teachers. It was built in the Jugend and Baroque styles, and after an extension in 1920-1921, the building also incorporated elements of Neoclassicism.
Since Nåiden fully renovated the building, they have aimed to preserve much of its original style, and the building's ten tiled stoves have been retained.
