Inside the former England manager’s spectacular lakeside mansion
If you’ve ever wondered where celebrities live, how about their managers? Well, the late Sven-Göran Eriksson – once a Swedish football player and manager of the England football team – resided in this rather incredible lakeside estate, and it’s just hit the market for $2.2M. Here’s a peek into Sven-Göran Eriksson’s former home.
Inside Björkefors Manor: Sven-Göran Eriksson’s Home Is Up For Sale
Perched on the banks of Lake Fryke in Stockholm, the former home of Sven-Göran Eriksson is certainly befitting of a sports legend. With an asking price of 25 million Swedish krona – or just shy of $2.2 million – the sprawling estate encompasses a mansion, villa, pool house and tennis court, plus a private beach.
The main house contains six bathrooms, a country-style kitchen, and a dining area commanding incredible views of the lake. You’ll also find a large terrace with an outdoor kitchen.
In the pool house, meanwhile, you’ll spot a sauna, jacuzzi, relaxation area and gym, plus towering ceilings (and the all-important, 100 square-metre swimming pool). Providing a total of seven bedrooms, the estate also boasts a detached villa and a fully-furnished guesthouse kitted out with its own sauna.
As if that wasn’t enough, there’s a 17th century studio to explore, alongside a tennis court, an enormous garage, and two charming waterside gazebos. Perhaps the most impressive feature, however? A lagoon-shaped private beach, which happens to be complete with a steamboat dock, a motorized floating platform, and a grand beach house. It’s a true lakeside paradise – with a price tag to match.
