Svartensgatan is a residential street of Södermalm, 350 metres long from Götgatan to Katarina Kyrkobacke. Its houses went up between 1700 and 1965. Here is every house on it – when it was built, who drew it and who owns it today – and what this corner of Södermalm is like to live in.
Each part is a rank among all of Stockholms stad's streets; the parts are weighted and the total ranked again – the same measure for every street, so any two can be compared and shared. It is VERA PI's own ranking, not a price and not a valuation.

The north-west side, whose facades face south-east, gets the most sun: 2.2 hours on 21 March in the median, against 0.6 hours on the south-east side.

Large figure: 21 March21 December21 September, trees in leaf
Solläge is the number of hours of direct sun on a clear day on 21 March on a building's sunniest facade – at least 8 metres long – at its middle floor. Winter is the same on 21 December; on 21 September the trees count, in leaf. Neighbouring buildings, the terrain and the trees cast the shade. Medians are of the residential buildings; the lists name apartment buildings only – houses and terraced houses count in the medians but are never shown one by one.
Every house on Svartensgatan with an address, on the map – its buildings drawn at their real heights from the city's 3D model. Walk along the street with the slider, switch between the odd and the even side, or tap a house.
Of the 17 houses on Svartensgatan with an address, 7 are owned by housing associations (bostadsrättsföreningar), matched in Bolagsverket's register of 19 October 2026. None of them has a public annual report for 2025 or later yet; where an older one exists, it is kept below as history. For 10 houses no association was found: the sources do not say who owns them.
The associations – no annual report for 2025 found yet
Figures from each association's own annual report (årsredovisning), as linked from the estate agencies' listings or the association's own site. Only reports for 2025 or later count as current; older years are history and dated. Names and organisation numbers from Bolagsverket's register, 19 October 2026. «Matched by name»: the association's name is the property's designation, and no report or listing has confirmed the address yet. Tap a house for its own page.
Svartensgatan in numbers
The street set against Stockholm and the whole of Sweden. Each figure is for the finest area its publisher reports – the street's own two statistical areas, Södermalm or the district of Södermalm – and says which. Nothing is modelled.

The street's areas: Statistics Sweden's DeSO 0180C3520 and 0180C3750 together, 3,515 residents – in SCB's areas Östra Katarina. Incomes are means, so a few very large incomes pull them up; capital income includes gains on sales of shares and property.

Prices and rents
Five homes in ten here are bostadsrätter – you buy a share in the association that owns the building, and pay it a monthly fee. The rest are rented, through the city's queue or second hand.

Twenty-five years of bostadsrätt prices
The county's median bostadsrätt sold for 5.2 times as much in 2025 as in 2000 – SEK 3.5m against SEK 0.68m.
Median sale price of a bostadsrätt, SEK thousand – Stockholm county, the finest level Statistics Sweden publishes; not the street. SCB, BO0501C.
What isn't public. Sweden has no open register of what bostadsrätter sell for, so no sale price is shown for a single address. A national register of bostadsrätter is coming – Lantmäteriet starts collecting from the associations in 2027 – but it records the flat, its holder and any pledges, not what it sold for. Asking prices come from the agencies' own adverts and are shown as asking prices, never as sales.
