As the name suggests, Östermalm in the eastern part of Skövde. The neighborhood features a mix of detached houses and apartments, most of which were built between the 1920s and 1950s. Skövdebostäder’s rental apartment buildings were constructed toward the end of that period and are located on Barrstigen, Grenanders gata, Björkvägen, and Örbäcksvägen.

It was in Östermalm Skövdebostäder’s history began, but the buildings from the late 1940s have undergone extensive renovations since then. Here you’ll find cozy apartments in a peaceful setting. As a tenant in Östermalm , you Östermalm access to a community room, barbecue areas, a bocce court, a fitness room, and a sauna.

The neighborhood is conveniently located a short distance from downtown, and both Boulognerskogen and a grocery store are within walking distance. Adjacent to the neighborhood, you’ll also find Kavelbro High School, Eriksdalsskolan, and the Ekedal retirement home. There are also two preschools nearby.
