According to reports, the eleven-time Grand Slam champion is asking 23.5 million Swedish Krona – approximately $2.2 million USD – for the roughly 200 square meter (2,150 square foot) apartment. Borg and Östfeldt originally purchased the penthouse in 2019 for around 1.65 million Euros.

The apartment, located in the trendy Norrmalm district of central Stockholm, boasts a large rooftop terrace with panoramic views of the city. The listing description boasts Stockholm’s most spectacular view of the city skyline in all four directions.

Real estate transactions are not new to Borg and Östfeldt. In 2019, they sold a villa in the Stockholm archipelago and another luxury property in Värmdö. They also fulfilled a desire for a vacation home in Cape Verde.
A Legacy of Success
Borg is considered one of the greatest tennis players of all time, having won 66 singles titles, including eleven Grand Slam championships. He won Wimbledon five consecutive times between 1976 and 1980 and six French Open titles between 1974 and 1981. He finished 1979 and 1980 as the world number one player, retiring at the age of 26.
Beyond Tennis
In 1984, the Björn Borg
collection was established in his honor. Designer Rohdi Heintz and his team initially started with sportswear, later expanding into the world of underwear – the brand continued to evolve.
Now, Borg is embarking on a new chapter, putting his penthouse with its skyline view up for sale for $2.2 million.
