Apartment/townhouse in Stockholm, Sweden

We live in an apartment with a townhouse feeling in the center of Stockholm which is 125 square meters. It's located in a huge park, facing a community garden that reaches all the way down to the water. It's very lush, peaceful and pretty. But if you just walk 5 minutes in the other direction you'll find bustling city life with great cafes, restaurants and shops. 

The area, Södermalm, is a part of the city where a lot of artists and musicians live, which gives it a creative and friendly vibe.

We're a family of five. Klara is 22 and her twin brothers Bruno and Ivan will be 18 in May. My name is Henrik, I'm 48 and work as a software engineer at Google. My wife Katherine, 53,  is a radio host on Swedish national radio.
The apartment is a two story unit with a private entry and patio. Downstairs is a kitchen/living room, one bedroom and a bathroom. Upstairs are three more bedrooms and a bathroom.
Stockholm is a great city to bike in, and we have a couple bikes you can use.
