Description

The sun hits the top of the mountain at Sandviken before it touches anywhere else on Blidö. By the time the rest of the island stirs, you're already on the upper terrace with a coffee, watching the light spread across the water below. That's not a small thing. That's the reason this house was built exactly here, on the highest point of the hill at Morkullevägen 12, facing south, catching every hour of daylight Sweden's long summers can offer.

The main house went up in 2020, designed by an architect who clearly understood that good design in the archipelago means working with the landscape, not against it. The roofline follows the natural rock, the multi-level terrace of roughly 250 square metres steps down the hillside in stages, each platform carved to make the most of the granite beneath it. When you're barbecuing on the lower deck as the evening light turns the inlet gold, you're not standing on a flat slab bolted to the earth — you're sitting inside the landscape itself.

Inside, the first thing you notice is the ceiling. Five metres of open space overhead, with a glulam beam running the length of the room that gives the interior a warmth no painted surface could replicate. The kitchen is genuinely well-equipped — two ovens (one with steam function), a large induction hob, built-in microwave, a dishwasher with extra capacity — the kind of setup that makes cooking for eight people on a Friday evening in July feel like a pleasure rather than a project. Underfloor heating runs through the hallway and bathroom, the air-to-air heat pump handles both warming and cooling depending on the season, and the construction itself is energy-efficient enough that the electric bedroom radiators rarely need switching on. This is a house that takes year-round comfort seriously.

Walk down through the birch trees to the water's edge and you'll find a wood-fired sauna and a new jetty built in 2024 with a boat berth and mooring buoy. Mornings down here in August have a particular quality — the water is still, the sauna is warming up, and the only sounds are birds and the soft knock of a hull against wood. Blidö's archipelago waters are clean and swimmable, and Sandviken Bay with its sandy beach is a short walk from the front door.

The second building on the plot is the older house, previously used as a holiday home during construction of the main building. It's ideal as a guest house — family visiting from Stockholm for a long weekend, friends who want their own space, grown children who need somewhere that's theirs. Multi-generational living in the archipelago has its own rhythm, and having two separate structures with their own entrances makes that work without anyone crowding each other.

Blidö itself is one of the more self-contained islands in the Stockholm Archipelago. There's an ICA grocery store for daily shopping, several restaurants, a cinema, paddle courts, adventure golf, boules, a football pitch, and an outdoor gym. In autumn, the forests surrounding Morkullevägen fill with chanterelles and lingonberries — locals mark their favourite spots like secrets. Come winter, cross-country ski trails open across the island and the bay freezes solid enough for skating, which feels about as Swedish as anything gets. The island has a permanent community, which means things actually work year-round: roads are cleared, the shop stays open, and you're not buying into a ghost town that empties after Midsommar.

Getting here from Stockholm is straightforward. The drive to Norrtälje takes roughly an hour, and from there it's a short ferry crossing to Blidö. For international buyers arriving via Arlanda, you're looking at around 90 minutes door-to-door, which puts this comfortably in range for a long weekend from anywhere in Europe.

The Swedish property market for archipelago homes has remained resilient, with island properties around Norrtälje consistently attracting demand from buyers in Stockholm and beyond. As a holiday property in Sweden, there are no restrictions on EU citizens purchasing, and the country's transparent land registry system makes the buying process relatively clean compared to many European markets. Non-EU buyers should seek local legal advice on ownership structures, but the process is well-established and manageable.

Key features:
- Architect-designed main house built 2020 to year-round specification on the highest point of Sandviken
- Open-plan living with 5-metre ceiling height and exposed glulam structural beam
- Premium kitchen with two ovens (steam function), large induction hob, built-in microwave, high-capacity dishwasher

- Separate guest house on the same plot — ideal for family, friends, or multi-generational use

- Quiet cul-de-sac location surrounded by birch forest and exposed rock
- Walking distance to Sandviken Bay's sandy beach
- ICA grocery store, cinema, restaurants, and sports facilities on the island
- Year-round island community with winter cross-country skiing and bay ice skating
- 100 sqm total living space across 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom
- Approx. 90 minutes from Stockholm Arlanda Airport via Norrtälje ferry

The smell hits you first — salt air and pine, drifting through an open window on a July morning while the harbor down the hill is already busy with fishing boats heading out toward the Kosterfjord. That's what mornings look like from Hovslagargatan 3. Coffee on the terrace, the conservatory catching the early light, and absolutely nothing demanding your attention until you're ready. Grebbestad sits on Sweden's Bohuslän coast, a stretch of coastline that West Coast Swedes guard like a family secret. The town has a real working harbor — lobster and oysters pulled straight from those cold, clean waters — and yet it never turns into the kind of place that forgets itself for the sake of summer crowds. The main street runs to the water's edge. There are maybe four or five restaurants worth returning to, a bakery that opens early enough to catch the sunrise crowd, and kayak rentals at the dock if you feel like paddling out to the skerries before lunch. In late August, the Smögen and Grebbestad area fills with Swedish families doing what Swedes do best: slow evenings, open boats, crayfish parties on granite rocks by the sea. November brings a different kind of quiet. Fog and moody skies. The kind of weather that makes you glad you've got a hot tub. This property at Hovslagargatan 3 sits at the end of a residential street — far enough from the summer foot traffic to feel private, close enough to the harbor that you're never hunting for parking. It's a substantial house. 115 square metres of main living space, good condition throughout, and a basement apartment that effectively gives you a second home within the property. That last part matters more than people initially expect. The main floor opens wide. Living room and kitche ... click here to read more

Stand on the wooden deck at six in the morning, coffee in hand, and watch a sea eagle glide low over the water while the inlet below your plot sits completely still. No traffic noise. No neighbours in your sightline. Just the occasional creak of a boat at the shared dock and the smell of Swedish summer — sun-warmed pine, salt air, wild strawberries growing somewhere in the grass behind you. This is Vaden 125, sitting at the very tip of Söderön island in Östhammar Municipality, and mornings here genuinely feel like the world kept a secret just for you. The house was built in 1992 and has been in the same family's hands ever since — the kind of place that accumulates decades of careful attention rather than neglect. You can feel it in the condition of the property: maintained properly, updated where it mattered, left alone where it didn't need changing. The main house runs to 135 square metres of living space across nine rooms, seven of which are bedrooms. Five of those bedrooms face the water. Waking up to an ever-shifting view of the Swedish archipelago isn't something you get used to quickly, which is rather the point. The open-plan kitchen and living room is the gravitational centre of the house. Large windows run the length of the water-facing wall, and the light that comes through them changes completely with the seasons — the pale gold of late-summer evenings, the hard winter brightness bouncing off snow-covered rocks, the flat grey of an October storm that somehow makes the inside feel even warmer. The wraparound timber deck connects to this space directly, and in July it becomes an outdoor dining room, a sunbathing terrace, a stage for long evenings that drift past midnight. The guesthouse — the original buildi ... click here to read more

Main house with sea view

Step outside on a July morning, coffee in hand, and the only sounds are birdsong and the faint ripple of Ensjön Lake through the pines. That's the daily reality at Gåsörtsvägen 10 — a compact, move-in ready holiday cottage sitting on a generous 1,060-square-metre plot in one of Norrköping's most quietly sought-after summer communities. At 495,000 SEK, this is a rare entry point into Swedish lakeside living, the kind of place that gets passed between families for generations. The cottage itself is 30 square metres — small by year-round standards, but that's entirely the point. Swedish summer house culture isn't about square footage; it's about the garden, the water, the fire pit on a still August evening. The layout is tight and well-considered, with a glazed veranda at the front that functions as a proper extra room from May through September. Sit there on a rainy afternoon and you get all the green of the garden and none of the wet. It's a genuinely good space, more liveable than it sounds on paper. Inside, the kitchen handles everything you'd want from a summer kitchen — adequate storage, functional appliances, enough bench space to prep a proper meal after a morning of picking your own tomatoes from the greenhouse out back. The living area doubles as a dining room, which keeps things sociable when family arrives. The single bedroom fits a double bed easily and has that particular cosiness that only small Swedish cottages seem to manage. You sleep deeply here. What really sets this property apart is what's outside. Two outbuildings of meaningful size anchor the plot — one currently used for storage but with obvious potential as a guesthouse conversion, ideal if you want to host friends without anyone sleeping on a f ... click here to read more

Exterior view of the holiday home

Step outside on a January morning and the world is completely white and completely silent, except for the creak of fresh snow underfoot and the distant hum of the first chairlift starting up at Vemdalsskalet. The air bites at your cheeks. Inside, the fireplace is still throwing heat from last night, and the smell of coffee fills the open kitchen. This is what owning a vacation home in the Swedish mountains actually feels like — and Järvslingan 22 puts you right in the middle of it. Built in 2020, this substantial semi-detached house sits on Järvslingan in the Vemdalsskalet area of Vemdalen, Härjedalens kommun, one of the most consistently popular ski and outdoor destinations in Sweden. The property spans 192 square meters of indoor living space across two full apartments — each with four bedrooms — on a generous 1,192-square-meter lot. It's a rare find: large enough for extended families or investment purposes, modern enough to require almost no work, and positioned well enough that you're never far from anything that makes this corner of Jämtland and Härjedalen so compelling. The two apartments share the building but function entirely independently. Each has its own open-plan kitchen, dining, and living area anchored by a fireplace, plus four bedrooms and its own outdoor access. Large windows face the mountain birch landscape, and when the snow is heavy on the branches in February, the view is the kind you don't stop noticing. The terraces — generous, south-leaning — are where you'll sit in March when the sun finally starts to win the argument with the cold, a cold beer in hand while your skis dry against the railing. The cross-country trail network and snowmobile routes are accessible directly from the property, mea ... click here to read more

The engine cuts out. The boat drifts the last few meters to the berth, and suddenly the only sounds are the cry of a gull overhead and the soft knock of hull against wood. You're fifty meters from the front door of your own house on Edesön, and the whole of Jungfrufjärden is laid out ahead of you in a sweep of silver-blue water. This is how life on this island begins — not with a commute or a queue, but with a ten-minute crossing from the mainland that feels, every single time, like crossing into somewhere else entirely. Edesön sits in the inner Stockholm Archipelago, accessible by boat from the car and boat parking at Skärkarlsedet on the Dalarö peninsula in Haninge municipality. That crossing is part of the property's identity. It's the reason the island feels genuinely private. No drive-by traffic, no strangers wandering past the garden. Just the island's own rhythm, the smell of pine resin warming in the afternoon sun, and the particular quiet that only comes when you're surrounded by water. The house itself — a classic Swedish röd stuga with white corner trim — sits elevated on a natural plot of 1,120 square meters where bedrock, soft grass, and mature Scots pines coexist as they've always done here. The 50-square-meter main house was built with one clear priority: the view. Floor-to-ceiling windows on three sides of the open-plan living and dining area make Jungfrufjärden a constant presence, a living painting that changes with the light, the season, and the weather. On a clear winter morning, with the masonry fireplace crackling behind you and frost glittering on the rocks outside, it's the kind of view that ruins ordinary living rooms forever. That fireplace anchors the entire interior. It's not decorative — i ... click here to read more

Main house and sea view

Early on a July morning, before anyone else on Estvägen has stirred, you walk the fifty steps down through the trees to Älgö's little beach and drop into water so clear you can count the stones at your feet. The pine forest is still exhaling the cool of the night. That's the daily opener here — and it's yours every summer for the rest of your life. Älgö sits in Stockholm's inner archipelago, four kilometers from Saltsjöbaden, which means you get the genuine Swedish island experience without surrendering urban convenience. The island is small enough that everyone waves to each other on the gravel tracks, yet large enough to disappear into the woods for a proper hour-long run without crossing your own path. It's the kind of place that sounds almost too good when you describe it to friends back home, until they come and see it themselves. The property at Estvägen 20 is positioned at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, with forest pressing in on three sides. There are no through-traffic sounds, no overlooking neighbors. What you do hear: woodpeckers in the spruce, the distant clang of rigging from boats moored at the island's small jetty, and on clear evenings in late August, the faint percussion from the jazz evening that Saltsjöbaden's Grand Hotel still hosts on its terrace across the water. The plot itself stretches across 2,101 square meters — a proper piece of land for this part of the archipelago — and the sun tracks it from east to west without interruption, so somewhere on the property is always warm between May and September. The existing house is a 1957 Swedish sommarstuga of 28 square meters. Compact, functional, honest. It has the character of a building that has been genuinely used and genuinely loved: the kind of ... click here to read more

Picture yourself stepping onto the patio of your Swedish coastal retreat as morning mist lifts from the Baltic Sea, revealing the gentle waves just meters from your garden gate. The scent of pine and salt air mingles as you carry your coffee across the sun-warmed wooden deck, listening to the rhythmic whisper of the sea that will become the soundtrack to your Swedish summers. This is the daily reality awaiting you at this spacious 105-square-meter house in Kärradal, where coastal living meets practical Scandinavian design in one of Sweden's most coveted holiday home destinations. Built in 1958 on a generous 1,312-square-meter plot, this single-storey property sits in the heart of Kärradal, the quiet residential area that stretches along Varberg's northern coastline. Here, mature trees shelter well-tended gardens, children ride bicycles down peaceful lanes, and Swedish families have gathered for generations to embrace the slow rhythm of coastal summers. The house stands just minutes on foot from a shallow sandy beach that extends for miles, the kind of safe, gentle shoreline where grandparents watch toddlers wade while teenagers paddleboard in the distance. This proximity to the water transforms every season: spring arrives with the first brave swimmers testing the waves, summer brings endless sunlit evenings on the sand, autumn paints the coast in amber light perfect for long walks, and winter offers dramatic seascapes and the cozy hygge of retreating indoors while storms roll across the sea. The Kärradal lifestyle revolves around this intimate connection with nature and water. Mornings begin with beach walks where you might spot seabirds hunting in the shallows or locals gathering for their daily swim, a Swedish tradi ... click here to read more

Picture yourself stepping onto your private terrace as the morning sun illuminates the snow-draped peaks of Storhögna, steam rising from your coffee mug in the crisp mountain air. Below, ski slopes beckon just 50 meters from your door, while behind you, warmth radiates from the fireplace inside your contemporary mountain retreat. This is the reality awaiting at Domherrevägen 2, where modern Scandinavian living meets direct access to Sweden's most authentic alpine experiences. Built in 2021 on an expansive 1,145 square meter corner plot, this 107 square meter mountain house represents the rare convergence of location, design, and year-round adventure. The property occupies one of Storhögna's most coveted positions, offering unobstructed panoramas across the ski terrain while providing immediate trail access for snowmobiling, cross-country skiing, and hiking.

Storhögna itself remains one of Sweden's best-kept secrets among European ski destinations. Located in Bergs kommun within the Jämtland region, this mountain village sits approximately 550 kilometers northwest of Stockholm and 90 kilometers from Östersund Airport, making it accessible yet refreshingly uncrowded compared to Alpine resorts. The area receives consistent snowfall from November through April, with average winter temperatures between minus 5 and minus 15 degrees Celsius creating perfect powder conditions. Summer transforms the landscape into a hiking paradise, with temperatures ranging from 15 to 22 degrees Celsius and near-endless daylight during June and July. ... click here to read more

Front view of the property

Step outside on a July morning and the first thing you notice is the light. Out here on Yxlan, it hits differently — bouncing off Yxlömaren lake just 350 metres down the track, filtering through the old apple trees at the garden edge, warming the west-facing terrace before most of Stockholm has had its first coffee. That terrace, with its outdoor spa already in place, is where you'll spend a disproportionate amount of your time here. Trust that. Yxlan sits in the northern Stockholm archipelago, part of Norrtälje kommun, and it carries that particular quality of Swedish island life that people from the city spend years trying to find. Not the polished resort version. The real kind — where a country store in Köpmanholm sells pickled herring and the ferry to the mainland runs on a timetable that politely refuses to rush you. The island is connected by road and by Waxholmsbolaget ferry from Yxlövik, a few kilometres from Österviksvägen, plus Bus 632 runs several times daily between the island and the mainland. Practical, quiet, close enough to everything, far enough from the noise. The house at Österviksvägen 44 was built in 1955 and has been brought up to year-round standard — proper insulation, heating systems that handle a Swedish February without complaint. That matters more than people expect when they first start thinking about archipelago property. A summer cabin is one thing. A place you can escape to in November, light a fire, and watch the frost settle on the meadow outside — that's a different category entirely, and this property sits firmly in it. Inside, the layout is compact but genuinely usable. Three rooms plus kitchen spread across 66 square metres: a kitchen with a dedicated dining nook that handles four ... click here to read more
