Soaring ceilings, wide plank flooring, ornamental woodwork and a decadent mural are just some of the abundant features at this central Copenhagen apartment, tucked inside the historic, neoclassical mansion Brøndumgård.

Located at Store Kongensgade 110, the three-storey building dates from 1804 and is believed to have been designed by a student of Caspar Frederik Harsdorff – the architect often referred to as the ‘godfather of classical Copenhagen.’ Harsdorff is responsible for some of the city’s most opulent late 18th-century structures, earning Copenhagen the reputation of being among Europe’s most beautiful capitals.

The building has been heritage-listed since the early 20th century and was converted into 18 condominiums between 2007 and 2010 by Trianglen Erhverv ApS and HMT Arkitekter. This second-floor apartment expands across 274 sm m at the front of the pink building, boasting seven large bay windows that over look Store Kongensgad – the longest street running through central Copenhagen.

Three large salons span the length of the apartment, decorated with original parquet flooring and heavy ornate doors, topped by grand Roman pediments with decorative mouldings. There’s even a haunting pastoral mural adorning one of the receptions.

The other four rooms all face the building’s internal courtyard, including the kitchen, which has a mixture of vintage cabinets and modern white elements – a curious combination that reflects the history of the building.

Fantastic Frank holds the listing for the seven-room Copenhagen property, which is asking 20m DKK (approximately €2.68m). Owner costs run to around DKK 25,003 (€3350) per month.

Store Kongensgade 110 is at the heart of Frederiksstaden, close to the city’s best public squares, restaurants, shops and museums.
