This 1844 country home for sale in Bohuslän sits on Lindö island near Resö, with 28 hectares running down to the sea and a boat berth at the pier.

A two-bedroom main house, a 1936 barn and a 1914 boathouse stand together, with open pasture around them and the water close by. The sea shows on two sides, and the land reaches all the way to an adjacent nature reserve.

The garden is framed by greenery and open cow pasture. There are several places to sit, so you can follow the sun through the day or move into the shade. The seller describes the quiet and privacy as a main attraction, and the setting backs that up. Resö's restaurants, services and busy boating scene are a short boat ride away, which is how island life tends to work in this part of Sweden.
