This chalet for sale in Tretten looks over the Lågen river from a 2,212 m² plot, a short drive from Hafjell and Kvitfjell. The house dates from 1946 and has been kept up and updated over the years. It has three bedrooms, a wood-burning stove and a large wooden terrace facing the water. At 119,500 EUR it is a practical way into a holiday home in Innlandet, with alpine skiing close by in winter and river, lake and forest trails in summer. ### The Chalet: 133 m² Built in 1946 The main house has 133 m² of living space and is in good condition. Large windows in the living room frame the river and the hills beyond, and doors lead straight from the room onto the terrace. There is space for a sofa group and a long dining table, and the wood-burning stove does the work on evenings when the cold comes down after a day on the slopes. The kitchen has generous counter space and an open sightline to the dining area, with a breakfast nook by the window for slow morning coffee. A hatch in the kitchen floor leads down to the basement, which holds several storage rooms and a technical room. That is useful space for skis, bikes and everything else a mountain house collects. There are three bedrooms. The main bedroom takes a double bed and a wardrobe, and one of the others is set up with twin beds and storage furniture. One bedroom looks out over Losna and the valley. The house has one bathroom, plus a separate laundry and utility room with room to wash and dry clothes, which comes in handy after a wet-weather hike. ### Garden, Terrace and Outbuildings on 2,212 m² The plot slopes gently and is well kept. Wide lawns, flower beds, ornamental shrubs, mature trees and berry bushes give the garden a settled, grown-in feel. A greenhouse and ... click here to read more

Great hiking opportunities in the area and a short drive to both Hafjell and Kvitfjell.

This cabin for sale in Rennebu, Trøndelag, sleeps seven across the main house and a detached annex, with car access to the door and hiking trails close by. Built in 1975 and in good condition, it is a simple, practical holiday home on a 599 m² plot. The asking price is €75,200, and the layout makes it easy to start using from the first weekend. ### The Cabin: 45 m² Inside, Sleeping Up to Seven The main cabin has 45 m² of internal living area, or 54 m² including 9 m² of external space. The living room is big enough for a sofa corner and a dining table, and large windows keep it bright. The kitchen is a traditional cabin kitchen with generous worktop space and storage, which helps on longer stays when you cook every evening. There are three bedrooms in the main cabin, enough for up to five people. The main bedroom takes a double bed. The other two have bunk beds and single beds, so children and friends are easy to place. A detached annex adds two more sleeping places and brings the total to seven. Older kids or visiting guests will like having a door of their own to close. Facilities are basic, as you would expect from a 1975 cabin. The bathroom is a wash area with a sink and storage, and a separate outbuilding holds the outdoor toilet and a storage shed. Heating comes from a wood-burning stove, but the current stove is defective. The new owner will need to replace it, so treat that as the first job and budget for it, especially if you plan to visit in winter. ### Plot, Veranda and Parking The 599 m² plot is a garden with room for children to play, for some gardening, or just for a chair in the sun. It sits in a sunny, secluded spot surrounded by open cultural landscape and forest, so neighbors are not close enough t ... click here to read more

Welcome to a pleasant viewing!

This chalet for sale in Hardanger sits on a 616 m² riverside plot at Skare, close to the Løntjørn ski stadium and cross-country trails. Built in 1933 and re-clad in 2012, the cabin has three bedrooms over two floors, a wood-burning stove, a heat pump and a bus stop a minute's walk away. It is a traditional mountain cabin at roughly 524 metres above sea level, with an asking price of about EUR 133,000. One detail up front: the bathroom is fitted, but no running water is installed. ### The Chalet: 76 m² on Two Floors The ground floor holds the main living space. The living room has a modern wood-burning stove and a heat pump, so the cabin can be warmed quickly on a cold mountain morning and kept comfortable through the year. The kitchen is open-plan to the living area, which makes it a natural gathering spot for a family weekend. Also on this floor are a bedroom, the bathroom and the door out to the terrace. Upstairs there is a hallway and two more bedrooms, so three bedrooms in total for family and guests. The electrical panel has been updated, and the exterior cladding was replaced in 2012. The listing describes the cabin as well maintained and updated over the years. Since the building dates from 1933, it makes sense to look closely at the details at a viewing. The missing water supply matters, so factor it in. If you plan to use the cabin in a very simple way, it may suit you as it is. If you want a fully working bathroom, ask what installing water would involve before you decide. There is also an outbuilding on the plot. It works as storage for skis, bikes and garden gear, and it could be developed further depending on what you need. ### Garden, Terraces and the River The plot is 616 m² and runs along the river ... click here to read more

This chalet for sale in Jektvik, Nordland, is a 1984 mountain cabin with a 40 m² terrace and valley views, 2 km from the ferry quay. It is a small, plain-spoken cabin: one bedroom, an open living room and kitchen, and an 11 m² outbuilding that holds the toilet and shower. The asking price of around 70,800 EUR covers an 860 m² freehold plot on gently sloping, southwest-facing mountain ground, with the sea a short distance away. If you want a cabin in Nordland to use as a base for walking and fishing rather than a showpiece, this is the scale to look at. ### Inside the Cabin The cabin was built in 1984 and has been maintained regularly since. The standard is typical for a Norwegian leisure cabin: practical, without frills. You enter through a small hall into the combined living room and kitchen, which has high ceilings and exposed roof beams. A wood-burning stove heats the room, and the open kitchen means whoever is cooking stays part of the conversation. There is one bedroom with a wardrobe, plus a storage room for skis, fishing gear and bedding. The main building has 40 m² of living space. With the 11 m² outbuilding, the total usable area comes to about 51 m². ### Terraces, Outbuilding and the 860 m² Plot Most of the living happens outside. A terrace of about 40 m² runs along the front of the cabin, and part of the south side is covered, so you can sit out when the weather turns. There is also a deck at the rear and a platform by the west gable, which is where you will want to be for the evening light. The outbuilding is built in the same style as the cabin and has its own staircase. It holds the toilet room with shower, and it also houses the battery and charging equipment for the solar system. The plot is zoned ... click here to read more

This log cabin for sale in Prestfoss, Buskerud, dates from around 1850 and sits on a freehold 1,160 m² forest plot with an annex and a stabbur. The buildings stand around a open courtyard with woodland on every side, so the first thing you notice is how quiet it is. Pine floors, bare log walls and a wood-burning stove set the tone inside. It needs updating, and it is priced at €69,900 with that in mind. For anyone who wants a cabin in Norway to restore at their own pace rather than a finished showpiece, this is a realistic starting point. ### The Main Cabin: Logs, Pine and a Wood Stove The main cabin is a single open-plan space that combines living room, kitchen and bedroom. Original pine floorboards run underfoot, the walls are exposed logs, and the ceilings are painted wood. The kitchen is basic: a solid wood countertop and a stainless steel sink, nothing more. The wood-burning stove does the heating, which is how most Norwegian cabins of this age have always worked. The bedroom has red-painted timber walls and room for a double bed. Windows on two sides look into the forest, so you wake up to trees rather than neighbours. Electricity has been brought to the outside wall of the cabin, but not further. That leaves you free to plan the wiring, lighting and any modern kitchen or bathroom the way you want them. ### Annex, Stabbur and the 1,160 m² Plot Next to the cabin stands a log annex built in the same style. It has a living room large enough for a sofa corner and a dining table, plus a separate sleeping area with a wooden bed frame and a window onto the trees. At the entrance there is a covered terrace, and the roof is tiled. For a family or a group of friends, the annex means the cabin never feels crowded. It co ... click here to read more

The plot is secluded in the terrain, surrounded by forest and scenic surroundings.

This year-round chalet for sale in Evje sits 530 metres above sea level in Gautestad, with a driveway to the door and views over Høvringsvannet. Norwegians would call it a hytte, and it works like one: a single-level cabin of 62 m² on a sunny plot of 1,369 m², with electricity and water installed and a garage included in the sale. The practical side matters up here. You can park at the front door in January and carry the groceries straight in, and there is an electric car charger on the driveway. For a cabin in Agder at this altitude, that kind of easy access is a real advantage. ### The Chalet: 62 m² on One Level You step into a vestibule, then into a living room that is open to the kitchen. Large windows face the lake and the rolling hills beyond, so the view is part of the room from the moment you walk in. There is no staircase anywhere, which suits grandparents and toddlers equally well. The kitchen has white profiled cabinets, plenty of worktop space, a stove, a fridge and a dishwasher. Whoever is cooking stays in the conversation. Right next to it is a dining area with room for a proper family table. There are three bedrooms and six sleeping places. The main bedroom has stained wood panelling and space for a double bed. The second has a bunk bed for children or guests. The third can take extra beds, or it can serve as a home office or hobby room. The single bathroom has a shower, toilet and sink. For heating, the chalet has both a heat pump and a wood-burning stove. The heat pump keeps the temperature steady between visits, and the stove is what you light on a cold evening. The condition is good, so this is a chalet you can use right away rather than a project. ### Terrace, Garden and Garage A sunny terrace ... click here to read more

Welcome to Trengslemyrvegen 9! Photo: DeliverFoto / Mats Åmland

This three-bedroom chalet for sale in Trysil sits on a 1,000 m² leased forest plot in Østby, with groomed cross-country trails close to the door. It is a small, practical mountain cabin of 51 m², listed at around €66,400, which puts a Norwegian second home within reach of buyers who expected to pay far more. The neighbours here are mostly spruce and pine. ### The Cabin: 51 m² With Three Bedrooms Step in from the covered entrance terrace and you land in one open room that holds the living area, kitchen and dining table. A wood-burning stove heats it, and large windows look out at the forest. The kitchen has hand-painted cabinets, which give the place a lived-in, personal feel rather than a catalogue look. The dining area is big enough for a full table of family or friends after a day on skis. There are three bedrooms, laid out to maximise sleeping space, with bunk beds among the solutions. That suits a family with children or a group of friends sharing the cost. The bathroom has a washbasin, mirror cabinet and toilet. The condition is described as good and the cabin is well maintained. One point to be clear about: there is no indoor water supply. A water post stands about 30 metres from the cabin, and electricity is installed. Plenty of Norwegian mountain cabins work this way, and many owners like the simple routine. You should still decide whether it suits how you plan to use the place. A small external storage room of about 2 m² takes skis, tools and outdoor gear. ### Outdoors: Ski Trails, Forest and a 1,000 m² Plot The plot is about 1,000 m² and ringed by trees, so the garden feels private. Parking is on the property. The area is easy to reach by car and works well for children. In winter, groomed cross-country ... click here to read more

Welcome to Ryskdalen Hytteområde 95!

This chalet for sale in Trøndelag sits by Tomtvatnet near Markabygda, with groomed ski trails a few metres from the door and southwest lake views. It is a small cabin of 47 m² on a leased plot of 90 m², and that is much of the appeal: everything is close at hand, easy to heat and easy to look after. Built in 1987 and kept in good condition, it has two bedrooms, a wood-burning stove and a heat pump. For anyone searching for a cabin for sale in Norway at an accessible price, this is a practical way into the Norwegian outdoor life, and the furnishings present at viewing are included. ### Inside the Cabin The kitchen is compact and fitted with a stove and refrigerator. The living room has light walls and ceilings, which counts for a lot when winter daylight is short. The living area opens straight into the kitchen, and a dining nook gives you a table with the landscape in view. Heat comes from the wood-burning stove, backed up by a heat pump, so the cabin is not just a July-and-August place. There are two bedrooms. One holds a family bunk bed with three sleeping places, the other a double bed, so five people can sleep here. That suits a family with children, or two couples who don't mind close quarters. The bathroom is small, with a vanity unit and an incineration toilet. A little loft is useful for storage. Outside there is a storage shed, and it may need some attention, so plan on a weekend of repairs once you own it. ### Terrace, Garden and Leased Plot The terrace measures about 4 m², enough for a small table and a morning coffee. The cabin faces southwest towards Tomtvatnet, so you look over the lake to the hills beyond, and the evening sun reaches you here. The garden is natural and follows the terrain, with no la ... click here to read more

This chalet for sale in Bruvik, on Osterøy near Bergen, comes with year-round road access and a sunny terrace on a 1,013 m² leased plot. It is a compact two-bedroom cabin from 1980, kept in good condition, in the quiet valley of Bruvikdalen. The road runs right up to the door, which matters more than it sounds in a Norwegian winter. ### The Chalet: 56 m² with High Ceilings and a Loft The total area is 56 m², made up of 51 m² inside and a 5 m² outside storage room. The living room has high ceilings and large windows, so the kitchen and sitting area fill with daylight even on a grey Vestland morning. A fireplace in the living room is the main source of atmosphere when the evenings turn cold, and it is why the cabin works outside the summer season too. The kitchen has modern appliances, plenty of counter space and room for a dining table. It opens onto the living area, so whoever cooks stays part of the conversation. There are two bedrooms with wooden floors and panelled walls. A staircase leads up to a loft (hems), which gives you extra beds for children or guests, or simply a place to keep things out of the way. The bathroom is bright and modern, with a shower cabin. The cabin has running water and electricity, so it is a proper home for a weekend rather than a camping exercise. ### Terrace, Garden and a 1,013 m² Plot A large terrace wraps around much of the building. That means you can follow the sun: coffee on one side in the morning, dinner on another in the evening. The listing describes excellent sunlight through the year, helped by the cabin's elevation of roughly 273 metres above sea level. Views run across the surrounding mountains and forest. The garden is big enough for children to play and for you to sta ... click here to read more

This chalet for sale in Nesna, Nordland stands on a 1,190 m² riverside plot with electricity installed and an interior you can finish yourself. Built in 1992, the house has 58 m² of living space and one bedroom. The asking price is 26,500 EUR, which makes it a low-cost way into Norway real estate on the Helgeland coast. It is a project, though. The interior is not fully finished and there is no water or sewage yet, so it suits a buyer who likes to build, not just unpack. ### The Cabin: 58 m² Ready to Be Finished The entrance opens straight into a single open-plan living area, with space by the door for coats, boots and gear. You will need it here. The kitchen is open to the living room and already has cabinets and worktop space. A window above the sink looks out at the forest, so washing up comes with a view of the trees. Large windows in the living room face the open landscape and let in plenty of light. According to the approved plans, the cabin has one bedroom, with wood panelling on the walls and ceiling. The main living areas carry the same panelling. Heating comes from a Mitsubishi air-to-air heat pump installed in 2016. What is left to do is the interior surfaces and details. You can finish them to your own taste, but within the existing approvals and building plans. Ask the seller exactly what those cover before you draw anything up. Electricity is in place. Water and sewage are not, so you would choose your own solution. Check local requirements and costs first, because that decision shapes how you can use the place. ### The Plot by the River: 1,190 m² of Owned Land The plot is owned and surrounded by forest and open countryside. The cabin is shielded from neighbouring properties, so the main sound you he ... click here to read more

This chalet for sale in Troms sits 60 metres from Storvatnet in Sørvik, with lake and mountain views and a year-round road right to the door. Built in 1995 and in good condition, it is a one-bedroom cabin with a sleeping loft, a wood-burning stove and a veranda that wraps around the house. The plot is 995 m² and freehold, and the outlook across the water is not interrupted by other cabins. For anyone shopping for a holiday home in northern Norway, that combination of privacy and easy access is not common at this price. ### The Chalet: Layout, Kitchen and Loft The living area is 77 m². Inside, the living room, dining area and kitchen share one open-plan space under a sloped ceiling, with large windows that pull in the light off the lake. The wood-burning stove is the centre of the room, and the living room opens straight onto the veranda, so the doors can stay open on a warm evening. The kitchen was renovated in 2016/17. It has an oven, a refrigerator, plenty of storage and generous worktop space, and the surfaces throughout the house were refreshed at the same time. You can move in and use it as it stands. There is one proper bedroom, plus a loft (hems) of 23.5 m² reached by a ladder from the hallway. The loft can take several beds, which makes it the obvious place for children or visiting friends. The bathroom has a shower, a sink and a Cinderella incineration toilet. A roomy entrance hall handles boots and outerwear, and a utility room gives you extra storage. ### Outside: Veranda, Garden and Storvatnet The veranda runs around the house, so there are several seating spots depending on where the sun is. Handmade benches stand on the grounds, and a large storage shed holds firewood, tools and sports equipment. Cof ... click here to read more

Exterior view of the holiday home

This cabin for sale in Østfold comes with an owned 200 m² forest plot and an 18 m² southwest veranda, at about €35,400. It stands in an established cabin area among pine trees, and the price is set for a buyer who wants to do the work. Two bedrooms, an open fireplace and a kitchen with a wood-burning stove are already in place. ### A 1964 Cabin: Renovate or Rebuild The cabin dates from 1964 and has the plain, older standard you would expect from that year. It has a timber frame, horizontal wooden cladding, and a masonry foundation with a ventilated crawl space. The gable roof is covered in shingle with metal flashing along the edges. You reach the front door by an outside wooden staircase with a handrail, then step into a windbreak that works as an entrance hall. Inside, the living room keeps its original pine floor, wood-panelled walls and ceiling, and a traditional open masonry fireplace. The kitchen has a wood-burning stove and leads straight into one of the two bedrooms. Both bedrooms have the original wooden floors and panelling, with enough room for bunk beds. The living area is 45 m², or 54 m² of usable space in total. Be realistic about the scope. The seller describes the place as needing total renovation, and demolition with new construction is also an option, subject to the usual building permits. A second home in Norway at this price is rare, but the budget has to cover the work too. ### The Plot, the Veranda and the Outbuildings The 200 m² plot is owned, not leased, and it is wooded with mature pines and native undergrowth. The trees give shade and a good deal of privacy, and no neighbours look directly onto the cabin. The 18 m² wooden veranda runs along the facade and faces southwest, so it catches th ... click here to read more

This chalet for sale in Dokka, Innlandet, is a 1968 cabin with a guest annex, 28 m² terrace and a 637 m² freehold plot set back from the road. At 39,800 euros it is a small, honest Norwegian cabin: 33 m² indoors, two bedrooms split between a main cabin and a separate annex, and a garden with room for children to run around. You leave the car by the road, walk about 50 metres along a footpath, and the noise of everything else drops away. ### The Cabin, the Annex and the Outbuildings The compound is made up of several small buildings rather than one big one, and that is what makes it flexible. The main cabin starts with a proper Norwegian entrance hall (a vindfang) where boots and wet jackets can stay out of the living space. Beyond it you find a kitchen, a living room with a fireplace and a bedroom. Large windows in the living room bring in daylight and look out over the surrounding landscape. A few steps away stands the annex, which has its own combined kitchen and living area and a separate bedroom. Guests or extended family can have their own space, and nobody has to queue for the one kettle. Two outbuildings and an outdoor toilet complete the set. The outbuildings are useful for firewood, tools, bikes and fishing gear, and some owners might turn one into a workshop or hobby room. The cabin was built in 1968 and is listed in good condition. The indoor area is 33 m² (BRA-i), with a further 40 m² of external usable area (BRA-e), making 73 m² of built area in total. ### Terrace, Garden and a 637 m² Freehold Plot Most of the living here happens outdoors. The terrace measures 28 m², big enough for a long dinner table and a few deck chairs, and it is where morning coffee tastes best on a clear day. Around it, the 637 m ... click here to read more

This cabin for sale in Trøndelag sits at Nord-Statland, close to the shoreline, with a sea view and 103 m² of terraces and balconies. Built in 1999 and in good condition, it is a two-bedroom retreat on a 941 m² plot, with an 11 m² annex and a share in a communal lot where a boathouse can be built. It suits anyone shopping for a holiday home in Trøndelag that works for long summer weekends and for colder months too. Electricity, running water, road access and a fireplace are already in place, so there is very little between you and the first evening on the terrace. ### Inside the 65 m² Cabin The living area is 65 m² and the plan is straightforward. You come in through the hallway and step into the living room, where large windows face the landscape and the sea and a fireplace takes the edge off cooler evenings. The kitchen has the essential appliances and enough room to cook and eat without tripping over each other. Two bedrooms, one bathroom and a storage room complete the layout. Nothing here is a project. The cabin has been well maintained since 1999, with solid construction and quality materials inside and out. That matters for a second home in Norway, because your budget can go to furnishings and boat gear rather than builders. The storage room is a small detail that you will appreciate once the fishing rods, bedding and spare bits start to pile up. ### Terraces, Annex and 941 m² of Land The outdoor space is the real headline. Terraces and balconies add up to 103 m², which is considerably more than the interior. That is room for a long dining table, a barbecue and a couple of loungers, with space left over. Morning coffee facing the water and late dinners in the long northern light are what this layout is built ... click here to read more

Facade

This chalet for sale in Espedalen, Innlandet, is a 3-bedroom mountain cabin with a fireplace and wood stove, 300 metres from groomed ski trails. Built in 1999 in a classic Norwegian style, it sits on a 1,361 m² freehold plot of heather and low shrubs, with a driveway running right up to the door. It is a small, practical cabin of 65 m² in good condition. It is the kind of place where you drop your bags, light the stove, and plan tomorrow's ski route over dinner. For anyone looking at a mountain cabin in Norway without a large budget, it is worth a closer look. ### The Cabin and Its 1,361 m² Plot The exterior is vertical timber siding under an asphalt shingle roof, a combination that copes well with mountain weather. Inside, wooden paneling and solid wood floors run through the whole cabin, so it feels like a traditional hytte rather than a converted house. The living room and kitchen share one open space. Large windows on three sides bring in light and look out over the surrounding mountain terrain. A masonry chimney serves both a fireplace and a wood stove, which is the first thing you will want to use on a cold evening. The kitchen sits right next to the living room, so whoever is cooking stays close to the fire and the conversation. There are three bedrooms with light, paneled walls and ceilings and solid wood flooring. One has a built-in wardrobe and a family bunk bed. Together the rooms sleep up to six people, which suits a family with children or two couples. A 25 m² covered terrace opens off the living area. It stays usable when the weather turns, which in the mountains happens often. A detached 17 m² outbuilding gives you dry storage for firewood, skis, bikes and garden equipment. One practical point: the ... click here to read more

Welcome to Roasetervegen 448! Photo: Fangblikk v/Thea Roverud Rusten

Picture this: a Saturday morning in January, snow sitting heavy on the pine branches just outside the kitchen window, the wood stove already crackling from the night before, and the smell of coffee drifting through a cabin that actually feels like yours. That's Togstadvegen 928 in Skogbygda. Not a hotel. Not a rental. A place where you drop your bags, exhale, and stop checking the time. Skogbygda sits in Nes municipality, Viken county, tucked into a landscape that Norwegians have been quietly escaping to for generations. The name itself — "forest village" — tells you what you're getting. Rolling terrain, dense spruce forest, clean air, and the kind of stillness that's genuinely hard to find anywhere within an hour of a capital city. And Oslo is exactly that: under an hour by car, roughly 60 kilometres south via the E6. Jessheim, the closest proper town with a full range of shops, restaurants, and a railway station, is about 33 minutes by car. A bus stop is a six-minute walk from the front door. For a cabin in the Norwegian countryside, this is an unusually well-connected address. The chalet itself was built in 1960 and sits on a freehold plot of 746 square metres — generous enough for serious outdoor living. The interior spans 56 square metres of living space with a total usable area, including the enclosed winter garden, reaching 116 square metres. In good condition throughout, the property has been updated thoughtfully rather than stripped of its character. The kitchen was renovated in 2018 and fitted with solid wood countertops and proper cabinetry that actually has room to cook in — a detail that matters when you're preparing a big Sunday meal after a morning on the trails. The bathroom followed in 2023 with a full ... click here to read more

Wake up on a Saturday morning in late June, the kind where the Norwegian sun has already been up for hours before you, and the light coming through the pine trees hits the veranda at an angle that makes the whole forest glow amber. The coffee's on the wood-topped counter inside. Somewhere out on Vanebuvann, a loon calls. You're 274 metres above sea level, 12 kilometres from the nearest town centre, and absolutely nowhere near the city. This is what you bought it for. Built in 2002 and sitting on a 996-square-metre natural plot at Vanebuveien 31 in Siljan, Telemark, this two-bedroom chalet is the kind of Norwegian cabin that serious buyers look for and rarely find at this price point. It's in good condition, genuinely move-in ready, and priced at 132,000 EUR — which, for a lakeside vacation home in Norway with this much outdoor infrastructure, represents real value in a market where waterfront cabins sell fast and hold their worth. The structure itself is honest Norwegian vernacular. Pine floors, pine-panelled walls, low exposed ceilings in the loft space — nothing is pretending to be something it isn't. The living room opens generously, high-ceilinged and light-filled, with windows framing tree cover and sky. A closed fireplace anchors the room for the colder months, and you'll use it: autumn in Telemark comes with cold mornings even when the afternoons are warm, and there's a particular pleasure in lighting a fire at 7am before anyone else is up. The open-plan kitchen runs directly off the living space, fitted with profiled pine cabinetry and a solid wood countertop. Functional, warm, completely in character. A mezzanine loft sits above via a short ladder — low-ceilinged and not classified for habitation, but perfect ... click here to read more

Step onto the west-facing terrace at Bråtåvegen 1018 on a late August afternoon and you'll understand immediately why people have been coming to Bråtådalen for generations. The sun drops toward the ridgeline at a slow, golden angle, the Otta river hums somewhere below the tree line, and the peaks of Breheimen National Park just sit there — immense, unhurried, completely indifferent to the modern world. It's the kind of quiet that actually works on you. Give it ten minutes and your shoulders drop two inches. This is a 1942 timber chalet in proper Norwegian cabin tradition — turf roof, original log walls, a soapstone stove that holds heat long after the fire's gone out. Built the year Norway was still under occupation, it has outlasted a lot. At 67 square metres on a 2,033-square-metre plot in Nordberg, Skjåk municipality, the footprint is intimate but the land around it gives you room to breathe, and then some. It's listed in good condition, which in a cabin this age means the important things have been properly cared for. Inside, there are two separate living spaces — an arrangement that works better than it sounds. The first has the fireplace with a closed combustion chamber, efficient and clean-burning, with those original log walls left as they were. No paint, no cladding, just the timber. The second living room holds the soapstone stove and connects directly to the TV lounge, a separate nook that becomes the natural gravitational centre on rainy evenings. Rain in Bråtådalen is not something you dread — it softens the valley, makes the grass hyper-green, fills the air with the smell of wet spruce. The kitchen runs on solid pine cabinetry, built to last rather than to impress, with a proper range hood and room enoug ... click here to read more

Once upon a time, nestled in the beautiful and serene landscapes of Hovsherad, there lies a charming cabin, waiting for new owners to discover its allure. This cozy retreat, located at Sætragodå 2, invites you to embrace the tranquility and beauty that Norway has to offer. As a busy real estate agent who's seen countless properties come and go, I have to say that this cabin has something truly special, blending comfort with raw natural beauty. Before we dive into the nuts and bolts of this wonderful property, let me paint you a picture of the local area and lifestyle. Situated in Hovsherad, this region is renowned for its spectacular outdoor activities. Living here means you're a stone's throw away from idyllic hiking paths, excellent swimming spots, and lush fishing areas. Picture waking up to the crisp Norwegian air, having your morning coffee whilst gazing out onto the verdant surroundings or the serene waters nearby. In summer, the marked trails transform into a hiker's paradise. Whether you prefer a quick upward trek to enjoy panoramic views or an extended journey through verdant terrains, the trails here cater to both. When winter's beauty blankets the area, there's no need to hibernate indoors. With a well-lit track for cross-country skiing and a charming sledding hill nearby, the winter months are as joyful as they are photogenic. The Bjørnestad ski resort is conveniently located about an hour's drive away, making it easy to indulge in a little alpine adventure. Before we let the spirit of Hovsherad sweep us away completely, let's pivot back towards the cabin itself. Nestled in Østrem Hyttefelt, a smaller yet friendly cabin community, it's a home that blends rustic charm with practical convenience. Here's a sn ... click here to read more

Welcome to Sætragodå 2 at Sætra in Hovsherad!

Step onto the 40-square-metre south-facing terrace at Sundmyr 21 on a July morning and you'll understand immediately why people keep coming back to this corner of Rogaland. The light here is extraordinary — long and golden, bouncing off the water below, warming the timber decking by eight in the morning. You've got a coffee in your hand, the hills are doing that thing where they shift from blue to green as the clouds move, and the only sound is a woodpecker somewhere in the birch trees behind the plot. That's the life this chalet sells. Everything else is just detail. Built in 2010, this 82-square-metre cabin at Sundmyr 21 in Hovsherad sits in the Sætra recreational area of Rogaland, a part of Norway that doesn't always make it onto the international radar — which is precisely its strength. This isn't the overcrowded fjord circuit. The landscape is wilder, quieter, more honest. Rolling terrain, clear fishing lakes, marked trails that wind through heather and past rocky outcrops with views you'll want to photograph badly and experience properly. The cabin is in good condition throughout, with nothing dramatic required of a new owner beyond turning the key and deciding which trail to take first. The layout is practical in the way that good Norwegian cabin design always is — nothing wasted, nothing missing. You walk in through an entrance hall that doubles as a proper mudroom, which matters enormously when you're coming in from a wet autumn hike or a snowy February ski. From there, the open-plan living room and kitchen takes up the heart of the property, with high ceilings and large windows pulling in the southern light. The fireplace against the wall isn't decorative. On a January evening, when the temperature outside dr ... click here to read more

Welcome to Sundmyr 13, a haven nestled in the picturesque landscape of Hovsherad, Norway, where every day is a new opportunity to connect with nature and create cherished memories. A Year-Round Retreat for Nature Enthusiasts This charming chalet, built in 2007, offers a seamless blend of comfort and functionality, making it an ideal vacation home or second residence. With two cozy bedrooms and a loft fitted with custom-built beds, there's ample space for family and friends to gather. The open-plan living area, bathed in natural light from large windows, provides a warm and inviting space for socializing, while the well-equipped kitchen ensures that culinary delights are always within reach. Seasonal Splendor and Outdoor Adventures In the summer, the surrounding landscape transforms into a vibrant playground for outdoor enthusiasts.

Welcome to Sundmyr 13!

This furnished chalet for sale in Rogaland sits just outside Helleland, with a south-facing deck and a bathing spot a five-minute walk away. It was built in 2014 at Rødland and is sold furnished, as shown at the viewing, so you can take over straight away. The chalet has 85 m² of living space on two floors, two bedrooms downstairs and sleeping places for eight. Norwegians would call it a hytte. For a buyer from abroad, it works as a low-fuss holiday home in Rogaland, close to lakes, hiking terrain and fishing water. ### The Chalet: Layout and Finish You come in through a roomy hallway that leads to the two ground-floor bedrooms. One has a sliding-door wardrobe, which helps when guests stay for more than a weekend. The bathroom is modern, with a tiled floor, underfloor heating and connections for both a washing machine and a tumble dryer. The living room is the main space. It is large enough for a sofa area and a proper dining table, and the big south-facing windows bring in light for most of the day. A wood-burning stove stands between the living room and the kitchen and is visible from both. On a cold evening it heats the whole room, and it also works as a divider between the two areas. The kitchen has an island, an integrated fridge/freezer, an oven, a microwave and a dishwasher. Cooking for a full house will not be a struggle. Upstairs there are two furnished rooms, one set up as a loft lounge with extra beds and the other as a bedroom. This floor is not approved for permanent habitation, so think of it as space for children, teenagers or visiting friends rather than as year-round living area. ### Deck, Garden and the 608 m² Plot From the living room you step straight onto a large deck that catches the sun and ... click here to read more

Welcome to Rødland

Picture this: it's a Saturday morning in late September, and the only sound reaching you through the cabin window is wind moving through birch trees and the faint drip of last night's rain still falling from the eaves. You've got coffee on the gas stove, the wood-burning stove clicked to life twenty minutes ago, and outside on the 43-square-metre wraparound terrace, the light is doing something extraordinary to the rocky hillside. That's life at Lauperaksvegen. It's not complicated, and that's exactly the point. Bjerkreim sits in Rogaland county in southwest Norway, inland from the Stavanger coastline, tucked between lakes and low mountains that most visitors never bother to find. That's its greatest asset. This isn't a postcard-famous Norwegian destination drowning in tour buses — it's the real thing. The kind of place where locals still nod when they pass you on the trail, where the fishing is genuinely good, and where a summer evening can stretch past ten o'clock with the sky still burning orange above the ridgeline. This cabin — a true Norwegian hytte in every sense — was built in 1988 and sits on bedrock foundations that aren't going anywhere. Concrete pillar construction, steel plate roof, and cladding that's been progressively updated with sections replaced in 2013 and 2022. It's not flashy, but it's solid in the way that matters. At 49 square metres of indoor living space plus a generous 28-square-metre loft above, the footprint is compact but surprisingly liveable. Two proper bedrooms on the main floor, an open-plan kitchen and living area at the heart of it all, and that loft reached by ladder — which sounds rustic until you're up there watching snow fall through the skylight at Christmas and you realise ther ... click here to read more

Picture this: early morning, the kettle just on, and through the southwest-facing windows the surface of Barstadvatnet catches the first flat light of a Norwegian summer dawn. Not another sound except water. That's the daily reality at this well-kept hilltop chalet in Hauge i Dalane, and it's the kind of quiet that people drive hours to find — except here, it's already yours the moment you arrive. Sitting above both Barstadvatnet and Eiavatnet, the chalet has a rare double-lake perspective that changes character completely depending on the season. Spring brings the smell of thawing earth and the return of migratory birds along the shoreline. Summer evenings on the 33-square-metre terrace stretch well past nine o'clock — this far into southwestern Norway, the light lingers in a way that genuinely stops conversation mid-sentence. Autumn turns the surrounding hillsides a deep rust and ochre, while winter settles in quietly, the wood-burning stove earning its keep as snow softens every sound outside. The chalet itself was built in 1965 and has been looked after. At 86 square metres of interior living space on a 734-square-metre freehold plot, it doesn't pretend to be more than it is — a genuine Norwegian hytte, the kind Norwegian families have been escaping to for generations. The open-plan living and kitchen area works well for the way people actually holiday: someone cooking, someone reading, kids sprawled on the floor, the fire going. Large windows on the southwest wall pull the lake view indoors, so even on grey days when you're not heading outside, the landscape is still right there with you. The stone fireplace on the terrace is a particularly good touch — outdoor fires are deeply embedded in Norwegian cabin culture, ... click here to read more

Picture yourself standing on a wraparound terrace at dawn, coffee in hand, as morning mist rises from the valleys below and the first light catches the peaks surrounding Tonstad. This is the daily ritual awaiting you in this Norwegian mountain retreat, where the clean air is so crisp it almost sparkles, and the silence is broken only by birdsong and the distant rush of mountain streams. Built in 2006 and maintained with characteristic Norwegian precision, this 45-square-meter chalet sits on 1,072 square meters of private land, offering an authentic Scandinavian escape just 90 minutes from Stavanger. Here, the rhythms of nature replace the noise of modern life, and every season brings its own magic to your doorstep. This is vacation home ownership at its most rewarding, where affordability meets adventure. At just over 100,000 euros, this property opens the door to year-round Norwegian mountain living without the premium price tags of Switzerland or Austria. The cabin's thoughtful 2006 construction means you inherit none of the maintenance headaches of older properties, yet benefit from that coveted Nordic simplicity and warmth. Three proper bedrooms accommodate family and friends, while a practical loft provides overflow sleeping space for children or spontaneous guests. The heart of the home flows seamlessly from kitchen to dining to living areas, centered around a traditional wood-burning stove that serves triple duty: heating the space, drying ski gear, and creating that ineffable hygge atmosphere Scandinavians have perfected. The expansive 34-square-meter terrace deserves its own chapter in your ownership story. Wrapping around the cabin like a wooden embrace, this outdoor space effectively doubles your living area ... click here to read more

Welcome to Tripperåsen 24 by Veronica Berge Olsen, Eiendomsmegler Vest.

Picture yourself warming your hands around a crackling wood stove as snowflakes drift past floor-to-ceiling windows, the Norwegian wilderness stretching endlessly before you. This is morning at your private mountain retreat in Lindåsen, where the silence is broken only by birdsong in summer and the satisfying crunch of fresh snow underfoot in winter. This 3-bedroom cabin with 67 square meters of thoughtfully designed living space sits on 1,108 square meters of sun-soaked freehold land, offering a rare combination of accessibility and authentic Norwegian mountain living just 90 minutes from Stavanger.

Built in 1977 with solid Norwegian craftsmanship, the cabin maintains its authentic character while offering modern conveniences that make year-round ownership practical for international buyers. The 23-square-meter terrace extends your living space outdoors, capturing sunlight from dawn to dusk and providing the perfect vantage point for watching seasons transform the landscape from vibrant green summers to pristine white winters. Inside, the kitchen showcases classic Scandinavian design with light-toned profiled fronts and warm solid wood countertops, creating a welcoming space for preparing meals after days spent exploring the surrounding wilderness. The open layout flows seamlessly into the dining and seating areas, where the wood-burning stove becomes the natural gathering point during cozy winter evenings. Three well-proportioned bedrooms accommodate family and guests comfortably, with one bedroom offering direct outdoor access for those who cherish waking to mountain ... click here to read more
