On one level with wooden materials and large windows is the home of two of the post-war most famous architects. Wenche and Jens Selmer designed their own home.
Now two grandchildren have put the house in Trosterudstien 1 up for sale. Price estimate: 22 million kroner. “An architectural gem”, according to the Finn ad.
The 1556 m plot is located on Gråkammen in Oslo and is described as both sunny and sheltered. The ad was posted in early May.
Byantikvaren in Oslo was among those who discovered the unique sale object, which is already on their yellow list. They then contacted the National Heritage Board. And vips – then a conservation process was underway.
– We believe it is important that people who are interested in the property are aware that the building has values that are worth preserving for the future.
This information must come before a sale, says Riksantikvar Hanna Geiran to Aftenposten.
