Located on the second floor of the historic Berquist & Nelson Drugstore building that is listed on the National Register of Historic Places, you’ll reach Vetehuset-Plantera+Skorda (Swedish for “the Wheat House-Plant and Harvest”) by taking the private elevator from the carport to the second floor. It is housed inside a structure mimicking a grain elevator, hence the name of the apartment. A lovely vestibule is the perfect spot to sip your morning coffee as you check your email or plan your day.
Guests enter either apartment into a welcoming living room. Both feature a cozy sofa and two chairs forming a lovely conversation area, while convenient coffee and end tables make it simple to enjoy a beverage or snack. You’ll love the unusual artwork created by a local artist.
Once settled in, you’ll want to break out the novel you’ve been planning to read. Or you’ll decide instead to stream your favorite show or a movie on the Smart TV, one in each studio apartment, with Hulu+Live TV with no ads using our Gigabyte high-speed internet.
You’ll slumber in comfort and style in a king-size bed with a Casper mattress. In both apartments, the sleeping area is set apart from the living area, which creates a nice sense of separation and privacy not commonly found. A closet is nearby each bed.
Guests will discover not one but two fully-equipped kitchens with full size stainless steel appliances and a quiet dishwasher at Vetehuset-Plantera+Skorda. With plenty of cabinets and counter space, it’s an easy task to whip up your favorite meals, even a midnight snack.
A dining table for four is adjacent to the kitchen in both apartments and offers a comfortable, relaxed dining experience for guests.
In the bathroom, you’ll find a door between the bathroom sink and the barrier-free walk-in shower and commode. The bathroom at Vetehuset-Skorda includes a separate bathtub. The spacious laundry room features a front-loading washer and dryer, even a drying rack.
Sustainability is literally built into Vetehuset-Plantera+Skorda. The entire studio apartment is insulated for temperature and noise with insulation from recycled blue jeans. The interior is heated and cooled with high-efficiency electric heat pumps, often called minisplits. Appliances are Energy Star certified and plumbing fixtures offer low-flow efficiency. The recycling bin is found in the laundry room.
