2-Bedroom Chalet in Ål: Nordic Retreat with Ski & Hiking Access

This chalet for sale in Pasvik, Finnmark, is an 80 m² forest cabin with a wood-fired sauna annex and electricity installed in 2022. It stands on a 1,000 m² plot of pine and birch, in the far northeast of Norway. The Pasvik valley runs along the Russian border, and few places in Europe are quieter. The cabin was built in 1984 and has been kept in good condition. It comes with two bedrooms, a separate sauna building and an outbuilding with a snowmobile garage. If you have been looking for a cabin for sale in Finnmark that you can use in every season, this one deserves a look. ### The Cabin: 80 m² of Pine and Wood Stoves You enter through a proper windbreak hall (vindfang) with pine panelling and a wardrobe, which is where boots and snowsuits stay in winter. The fuse box here is new, with automatic circuit breakers fitted in 2022. Electricity is not a given for cabins this far north, so the upgrade matters. The living room has pine floors, wooden panelling and corner windows that look out into the trees. There is space for a sofa group and a dining table. A wood-burning stove connected to a lightweight concrete block chimney heats the room. The kitchen is partly open to the living area and has a second wood stove, solid wood cabinet fronts and a hardwood worktop. It is also prepared for a gas cooktop and a gas fridge, which gives you a fallback if you ever want to run the cabin off-grid. The master bedroom has a double bed and a chest of drawers. The second bedroom has a built-in bunk bed plus a single bed, so a family or a group of friends can sleep here. Both rooms are panelled on walls and ceiling. A loft above the kitchen and bedrooms holds seasonal gear. ### Sauna, Terraces and the 1,000 m² Plot The annex is the ... click here to read more

This chalet for sale in Trøndelag sits on a 748 m² freehold plot near Fannrem, with two terraces and a ski centre only 15 minutes away by car. It is a single-storey cabin in Svorkdalen, built for people who want forest on the doorstep and an uncomplicated place to stay. There are three bedrooms, a wood stove and a lot of outdoor space. The condition is good, and the cabin is ready to use. If you have been looking at a holiday home in Trøndelag that costs far less than the usual Norwegian mountain cabin, this one deserves a closer look. ### The Chalet: Three Bedrooms on One Level Everything is on one floor, so there are no stairs to manage with luggage, small children or stiff knees after a day on the trails. The living area is 60 m² in total, of which about 51 m² is internal usable space. You come in through a painted entrance hall with a wall-mounted heater and room to hang wet outerwear. That matters here, because you will arrive in wet gear more often than not. The living room and kitchen share one open space. Large windows bring in daylight, and a Jøtul wood-burning stove gives the room its cabin feel. The kitchen has plenty of worktop and storage. All three bedrooms have vertical wooden panelling and wooden floors. The third bedroom looks out at the surrounding forest, so it is quiet and private. There is one bathroom with a shower cabin, a sink and a 30-litre hot water tank. ### Outdoor Space: A 748 m² Freehold Plot and Two Terraces The plot is the real attraction. At about 748 m² and freehold, it gives you room for a garden, a fire pit, a play area or just a lawn to cross barefoot in July. There are two terraces. A covered one of roughly 10.5 m² keeps you outside when it rains, and a larger open terrace of a ... click here to read more

This chalet for sale in Trøndelag stands less than 30 metres from the Trondheimsfjord shore in Ekne, with a wraparound terrace facing the water. It is a one-bedroom, single-storey cabin of 56 m² on a sloping 1,300 m² plot, and you can drive right up to the door. At €128,000 it is a realistic way into Norway real estate for anyone who wants salt water, quiet and long summer evenings. ### A Cabin by the Trondheimsfjord The shoreline is a few steps from the front of the cabin, so swimming, fishing and launching a small boat are part of an ordinary day rather than an outing. The terrace faces the sea and runs around the building, which means you can follow the sun from morning coffee to a late supper outside. The views stretch across the fjord, and in summer the light lingers well into the evening. It feels private, yet this is not a remote hut. Ekne's centre is a short bike ride away, and the access road reaches the property itself, so groceries, guests and gear never have to be carried far. ### Inside the 56 m² Chalet Everything is on one level. The living room has windows on three sides, so the fjord is always in view, and a door leads straight out to the terrace. A wood-burning stove takes the chill off cooler evenings. Next to it sits the kitchen, with space for a stove and a refrigerator, open wall shelves and a drawer unit. You would bring your own appliances, but the layout is simple and bright, with several windows. The single bedroom looks out over the water. There is an entrance hall with room for boots and jackets, plus a covered entrance with a wooden deck where you can sit out of the wind at midday. A separate outbuilding holds tools, fishing gear and outdoor equipment. The condition is good. Electricity ... click here to read more

This chalet for sale in Ørje, Østfold, is a 2009 forest-surrounded cabin with a large sunny terrace, a loft and a 1,617 m² plot. At 62 m² it is easy to look after, and it sleeps five without feeling crowded. The exterior was repainted recently, so there is no big job waiting for the new owner. For anyone searching for a holiday home in Østfold that works in every season, this is a practical cabin close to the Swedish border. ### Inside the Chalet: Stove, Loft and Five Beds The living room is the brightest space in the house. Large windows face the surrounding landscape, and the kitchen opens straight into the room, so whoever is cooking stays part of the conversation. The dining area sits next to both, which keeps everything within a few steps. A wood-burning stove is the centrepiece for cold evenings. A heat pump and electric panel heaters back it up, which means you can arrive on a frosty Friday and have the place warm without relying on firewood alone. There are two bedrooms. One takes a double bed and has a window that lets in daylight. The other is fitted with a bunk bed. Together they give five sleeping places. Above them is a loft (hems) that works as extra guest space or a play area for children. The bathroom is bright, has a window and offers good storage. ### Terrace, Garden and a 1,617 m² Forest Plot The terrace is the reason many buyers will fall for this one. It runs along the cabin, gets plenty of sun and has room for several zones: a dining table at one end, loungers at the other. Breakfast outside and a book in the afternoon sun are both easy to picture here. Beyond the terrace is a garden on a natural plot of 1,617 m², with forest around it. That gives you privacy and shelter, plus enough space fo ... click here to read more

This chalet for sale in Krøderen, Buskerud, sits at roughly 569 metres above sea level, about 20 minutes from Norefjell. It is a 1968 cabin with three bedrooms, 64 m² of living space and a garden plot, aimed at buyers who want a Norwegian mountain base and are happy to put in some of the work themselves. The setting is quiet and sunny, set back from the main road, and Oslo is only about 1.5 hours away by car. ### The Cabin and Its 1,024 m² Plot Inside, the living room is the part you notice first. It has a vaulted ceiling and large windows, so daylight reaches deep into the room, and the view takes in the surrounding landscape. The listing mentions a fireplace or wood-burning stove, so ask which it is at the viewing. Either way, you have a fire to sit beside after a day on skis. There are three bedrooms, enough for a family or two couples sharing a weekend. An indoor storage room takes skis, tools and seasonal gear, which matters more than you would think in a cabin this size. Outside, a small terrace is the spot for morning coffee while the sun climbs over the hillside. The plot measures 1,024 m² and is leased rather than owned. That is common for Norwegian leisure properties, but it affects the purchase. Before you commit, get the lease term, the annual fee and any conditions on use in writing. ### Condition and Renovation Potential The condition is listed as good, but this is still a 1968 cabin that needs upgrading and modernisation. The kitchen area is unfinished in the sense that you design and equip it yourself. That suits anyone with firm ideas about layout and appliances, and it lets you spend where it counts. Bathroom facilities are basic. The toilet is an outhouse in a separate outbuilding, which is the ... click here to read more

This chalet for sale in Drangedal, Telemark, sits about seven minutes by car from the Gautefall ski resort, on a 995 m² plot that is owned outright. Built in 1980 and in good condition, it is a one-storey cabin with three bedrooms and a deliberately simple setup: mains electricity, a wood stove, a composting toilet, and no running water or sewage. That is the trade-off, and it is also why the fixed costs stay low. If you want a cabin you can open on Friday evening and lock again on Sunday without a long checklist, this one is built for that rhythm. ### The Chalet: 65 m² on One Level You enter through a windbreak, the small porch that keeps boots, snow and wind out of the living space. Beside it are a laundry room and a toilet room with the composting toilet. The main room combines living area, kitchen and dining table in one open space, which suits a family cooking and talking at the same time. The wood-burning stove is the centre of the room. Its flat top can be used to heat water, so a kettle on the stove is how the day starts. A hallway leads to the three bedrooms, enough for a family with children or two couples sharing a weekend. The internal living area is 65 m². Add the 18 m² external storage room and the total usable area comes to 83 m². ### Terrace, Garden and Outbuildings A door from the living room opens straight onto a large terrace that catches good sun through the summer. It has room for both a seating group and a dining table, and an outdoor fireplace keeps the evenings going after the sun drops behind the trees. The 995 m² plot is a garden you can actually use, with space for children to play and for adults to do very little. You can drive right up and park on the plot. A detached, insulated stora ... click here to read more

This log cabin for sale in Eggedal, Buskerud, dates from 1933 and sits on a 1,000 m² owned plot, ten minutes from the Haglebu ski area. It is a small, traditional mountain cabin with electricity, a wood stove and a road that runs right up to the door, so you can arrive on a Friday evening in any season without hauling bags across a field. With 60 m² of living space (66 m² usable), this is a cabin you use rather than a project you maintain. The condition is described as good, and the current owners have kept up with maintenance over the decades. At around €61,000, it is one of the more affordable ways into a holiday home in Norway. ### The Log Cabin: 1933 Construction and Room for Eight The cabin is built in the traditional Norwegian log style, with natural wood and well-made timber details. The living room has large windows that bring in daylight and show the surrounding landscape. There is space for a sofa group, a TV unit and a dining table, and the fireplace/wood stove is both the centre of the room and the main source of heat when the weather turns cold. The kitchen is simple and old-fashioned, with the essentials for cooking. Add the three extra sleeping spaces in the kitchen area to the two bedrooms and the cabin sleeps up to eight. That works for a ski weekend with friends just as well as for a family week in summer. Be aware of two practical points. One of the two bedrooms is officially registered as a storage room, and no change of use has been applied for. The bathroom facilities are basic, with an outhouse and storage in a separate outbuilding next to the cabin. If you want to upgrade the sanitary side later, that is something to discuss with a local builder and the municipality. ### The Plot, the Terrac ... click here to read more

This 1942 cabin for sale in Trøndelag sits on a fenced 3,481 m² forest plot in Elvarli, between Stjørdal and Selbu. It is a small, traditional Norwegian log cabin with two bedrooms, a closed fireplace and a wood stove, set back from its neighbours behind a ring of mature conifers. At €49,000 it is an affordable way into Norway real estate for a buyer who wants a quiet base rather than a showpiece. ### The Cabin: 56 m² of Log Paneling and Wood Heat Built in 1942 and in good condition, the cabin has 56 m² of living area. Stone steps lead up to a covered entrance, and inside there is a paneled hallway with room for boots and jackets. The living room is the main space, with traditional log paneling, exposed ceiling beams and large windows facing the woodland. It is big enough for more than one seating group, so a family can spread out after a day on the trails. A closed fireplace stands against a slate-clad fire wall and takes the edge off cold evenings. The kitchen is separate and has its own wood-burning stove, painted cabinets with profiled fronts and space for a dining table. A workbench sits under the window, so whoever is cooking looks out over the plot. One of the two bedrooms opens directly off the kitchen. Both bedrooms have paneled walls and are furnished with beds, including a bunk bed in one of them, which gives four sleeping places in total. Solid spruce flooring runs through the living areas. One thing to know before you view: the toilet is outdoors, in a wooden outbuilding. That suits a simple cabin routine, but it is worth weighing up if you plan long stays. ### The Plot: 3,481 m² of Fenced Forest Garden The land is freehold and fully fenced, with a covered wooden gate at the entrance. Mature coniferous ... click here to read more

This cabin for sale in Levanger sits above Tomtvatnet in Trøndelag, with groomed ski trails about 300 metres from the door. It is a small chalet-style cabin built in 1976 on a 1,000 m² leased plot near Markabygda, sold fully furnished at 48,100 EUR. If you want a simple base for skiing, fishing and quiet weekends, this is a straightforward place to start. ### The Cabin: 30 m² of Practical Mountain Living The cabin has about 30 m² of internal living space, or 49 m² of usable area once the external spaces are counted. The main room is open-plan, with large windows facing the lake side, so the light comes in early and stays. The kitchen has upper and lower cabinets and a dining spot by the window, which means you eat with the view in front of you. Beyond it is the sleeping area, with a custom-built bunk bed and a double bed, enough for up to four people. The entrance hall is clad in wood panelling on walls and ceiling, and the fuse box is modern, with automatic circuit breakers. Heating comes from electricity plus a wood-burning stove, which matters when a January evening in Trøndelag drops well below freezing. A satellite dish is installed for TV. Furniture, inventory and white goods all stay, so you can arrive with a bag of groceries and start. The cabin is in good condition overall, but it does need some maintenance, so expect to spend a few weekends on upkeep in the first year or two. ### Plot, Annex and Views Over Tomtvatnet The 1,000 m² plot sits high in the terrain. The cabin looks out toward Tomtvatnet and the surrounding hills, and no neighbours look back in. The garden is sheltered and catches the sun for most of the day. There is an established seating area with a fire pit and benches, the kind of spot where ... click here to read more

This chalet for sale in Eggedal, Buskerud, sits at about 918 metres with prepared ski trails roughly 100 metres from the door. It is a traditional one-level mountain cabin of 56 m² with three bedrooms, sold fully furnished at 69,900 EUR. For a second home in Norway that you can use the same weekend you collect the keys, it keeps things simple. ### The Chalet: 56 m² on One Level Everything is on a single level, which matters in a mountain cabin when you arrive with skis, boots and a week of groceries. Inside it is classic Norwegian: wood-panelled walls and ceilings, and solid pine flooring throughout. The open living and kitchen area is the main room, with large windows facing the forest and the dining spot right beside the glass. In 2023 a professional installer fitted a new wood-burning stove and chimney. That is where you will end up after a day on skis. The kitchen has profiled cabinet fronts, a solid wood countertop, a stainless steel sink and an extractor fan vented to the outside. There are three bedrooms. The main one has a sloped ceiling, panelled walls and room for a double bed, plus a dresser and built-in shelves. The second has bunk beds and solid wood storage, which suits children or guests. The third has pine flooring and space for a bed and a dresser. By the entrance you will find a storage room and a toilet room with an incineration toilet, so expect a rustic setup rather than a city bathroom. The cabin is connected to the electricity grid. ### Veranda, Ski Trails and Mountain Lakes A veranda wraps around the cabin, built from wooden beams with slatted decking and a standing railing. Morning coffee here looks out over forested hills and, in winter, over snow-covered pines. The Sandvasseter/Kleivsete ... click here to read more

This chalet for sale in Agder sits on a 1,161 m² freehold plot by Store Reiårsvatn, with a private borehole, a sauna and a wood-burning stove. It is a simple 1978 cabin at about 530 metres above sea level, in a cabin area used for walking, swimming and skiing through the seasons. The veranda looks out over forested hills. Standards are basic and some renovation is needed, which is reflected in the price. For anyone who wants a cabin in Norway to use this summer and improve at their own pace, it deserves a look. ### The Cabin and Its 1,161 m² Plot Inside, the 67 m² layout is straightforward. The living room has a wood-burning stove and a heat pump, plus large windows that bring in the light and frame the forest. The dining area sits in front of a row of windows and opens directly to the kitchen, so whoever is cooking stays part of the conversation. The kitchen has pine cabinets, a laminate worktop and a stainless steel sink. There are two bedrooms. One holds a double bed and a bunk bed, so a family of four can sleep there without fuss. The other has room for single beds and looks out toward the entrance. You also get a sauna, two storage rooms, a hallway and a separate toilet room. From the living room you step straight onto the veranda, which is where the morning coffee will happen. Outside, the plot is owned outright and has garden space for children, a fire pit or a vegetable bed. There is a woodshed for the winter supply and a detached annex with a covered entrance, which could serve as storage or, with some work, extra sleeping space. Furnishings and items currently in the cabin and on the plot are included in the sale, so you can arrive with little more than a bag of food. ### Water, Heating and Renovation: Wha ... click here to read more

This chalet for sale in Telemark sits at 326 metres above Hovin, with a 32 m² veranda facing Blefjell and a short walk down to Sandvatn. It is a small, one-level cabin on a quiet plot of heather, moss and rock, sold fully furnished, with a car road running right up to it. At €95,000 it suits anyone looking for a second home in Norway where the main attractions are the lake, the mountain and the silence. ### The Chalet: 39 m² on One Level Inside, it is a classic Norwegian hytte. The floors are lacquered wood, the walls and ceilings are panelled, and the large living room windows frame the view toward Blefjell. An open fireplace sits in the corner. The kitchen has a Jøtul wood stove connected to a brick chimney, so you have two ways to warm the place when an evening turns cold. Kitchen fittings are a solid wood countertop, overhead cabinets and a stainless steel sink, and swing doors open straight into the living room. There are two bedrooms. The main one has a corner wardrobe. The second is smaller but sleeps two, which works for a family or two couples who don't mind close quarters. Electricity is installed and the condition is good. Furniture is included, so you could arrive with a bag of groceries and have the stove lit the same evening. ### Veranda, Leased Plot and Outbuilding The veranda is the part of this cabin you will use most. It measures about 32 m², partly open and partly covered, and the covered section received a new wooden floor in 2025. Breakfast in the morning sun, dinner under the roof if the weather turns, and a clear look across the forest to Blefjell as the light fades. The plot is 1,500 m² and leased rather than owned, so ask for the lease terms, duration and annual fee before you commit. The ... click here to read more

This chalet for sale in Akershus sits in Enebakkneset, a furnished 1958 cabin with two annexes on 891 m² of land beside the forest. It is a small, plain, honest place, and that is the appeal. You arrive, open the door, and everything you need for a weekend is already inside. The garden is fenced off from the world by a private road with a barrier, and the nearest neighbours are other cabin owners who come for the same reasons you will: quiet, trees and a slower pace. ### The Cabin: 32 m² Built in 1958 The main building dates from 1958 and has a simple, functional standard. The listing records 32 m² of living area, made up of 28 m² inside and 4 m² of external space. It is in good condition and is sold with its furniture, so you can bring a bag of groceries and start using it straight away. The living room is the centre of the cabin. A fireplace takes the chill off cooler evenings, and there is room for a sofa corner and a dining table in the same space. The kitchen has the basics for holiday cooking and some storage. Through the kitchen you reach a sleeping alcove that fits a large bed, which makes this a one-bedroom holiday home. The bathroom has a shower cabin and keeps to the same no-frills standard. The cabin has electricity and summer water. Please read that literally: water is a seasonal service here, so this is a place for the warmer months and for shorter visits outside them, not a year-round residence. ### Annexes, Terraces and the 891 m² Plot Beyond the main cabin stand two freestanding annexes of 8 m² and 13 m². They have been measured but not condition-assessed, so plan to look them over yourself. Owners often use buildings like these for guests, as a storeroom for bikes and fishing gear, or as a quiet ... click here to read more

This chalet for sale in Vestland sits on Spissøy near Mosterhamn, 100 metres from the sea, with a 38 m² terrace facing the water. Built in 1991, the timber cabin has 42 m² of living space, two bedrooms and a wood-burning stove. It stands on a 661 m² plot that is owned outright, with no other cabins close by. It is a simple, honest place for someone who wants the Norwegian coast without the fuss. ### The Cabin: 42 m² of Timber and Light Inside, the cabin is built around wood. Large windows pull daylight into an open-plan living room and kitchen, and the wood-burning stove is the natural centre of the room. On a cold evening that stove does the work of both heating and atmosphere. The kitchen is basic, with space for a fridge and a stove, and it is laid out for leisure living rather than elaborate cooking. A small loft opens off the living room. Use it for storage or turn it into a sleeping nook for the children. There are two bedrooms, so a family or two couples can stay without trading privacy for proximity. The bathroom is tiled on both walls and floor. It has a shower corner with glass doors, a toilet and a vanity with a mirror and plenty of storage. That storage matters if you plan longer stays. Water and electricity are connected, and the property is in good condition, kept in a traditional cabin style rather than modernised. ### Terrace, Garden and the Sea at 100 Metres The 38 m² terrace is the best part of the place. It has room for a proper table, a barbecue and a few chairs, and the view runs over the water. Morning coffee here, with the sea in front of you, is the reason people buy a cabin like this. The garden is child-friendly and easy to use, with space to play, plant something or sit still. From the p ... click here to read more

This chalet for sale in Tylldalen sits at about 860 metres above sea level, on a 1,157 m² plot with open mountain views and a road that runs right up to it. It is a 68 m² log cabin with one bedroom, plus an annex and an outbuilding, and it is habitable today. It also needs modernising, and that is reflected in the price of around €62,000. For a buyer who likes a project and wants a mountain cabin in Innlandet without a big budget, that is the whole point. ### A Log Cabin with a Past The main building started life in the village around 1870. At some stage it was split in two. The upper half became the base of a neighbouring cabin about 100 metres to the east, and the lower half was moved up the hill and re-erected here in 1970. So you are buying old timber that has already had a second life. The log construction is a solid starting point for renovation, and you decide how much of the rustic character to keep and how much comfort to add. A sales prospectus and a condition report are available. Read both before you make an offer, because the scope of work will be the biggest variable in your budget. ### Inside the Cabin, on the Deck and Around the Plot Inside, the living area is open up to the ridge, so the ceiling is high and the room fills with daylight. A fireplace insert provides the heat. The kitchen has older fittings and a dining area. The bedroom has a partly divided alcove arrangement, and in total the cabin sleeps six. The annex, built in 1997, adds more sleeping space, and there is an outdoor toilet on the plot. If you want to use the place comfortably outside the summer months, expect to update the kitchen and the sanitary arrangements. Outside, a large deck and terrace wrap around the south and west sides ... click here to read more

This chalet for sale in Nordland sits about 100 metres from the sea at Forstrand, a 20-minute drive from Inndyr in Gildeskål. Built in 1967 and kept in good condition, the 53 m² cabin stands on a 1,164 m² plot with a southwest-facing terrace and a view over the water to the mountains. It is a simple, off-grid kind of place, and that is the appeal for many people looking for a second home in Norway. ### Chalet for Sale in Nordland: The Layout Everything is on one level, which makes the cabin easy to use for families and older guests. You come in through a hallway and reach an open-plan living room and kitchen with direct access to the terrace. There are three bedrooms and a storage room for fishing gear, skis and boots. The living room was extended recently to take in more of the view, and the large windows are the first thing you notice. The main bedroom has space for a double bed and looks toward the sea. The other two rooms suit children or guests. A fireplace/wood stove takes the chill off cool evenings, and the cabin has been partly modernised in recent years. ### Off-Grid Living: Power, Water and Outbuildings Be clear about what you are buying: this is a cabin in Norway in the traditional style, not a fully serviced home. There is no running water. Electricity comes from the property's own generator and battery system, which is enough for lighting and basic needs. The outhouse is a separate building. Some buyers see that as a drawback, others as the whole point. If you want a weekend base with no meters and no noise, it fits. If you want a dishwasher, look elsewhere. The grounds hold more than the cabin. There is an outdoor storage shed, a boathouse/annex and a garage/parking space. The annex could serve as ... click here to read more

This chalet for sale in Fagernes, Valdres, is a three-bedroom forest cabin with a sauna annex on a 1,600 m² freehold plot, 6.5 km from town. The property sits in the Valdres hyttegrend cabin area at Ranheimsbygda, about 691 metres above sea level. You get a 67 m² main cabin, a separate annex with its own sauna, and a traditional outdoor toilet among the trees. At around €57,500 it is a low-budget way into a mountain holiday home in Innlandet, and the condition is good. ### The Cabin and Its Forest Plot You park on your own plot beside the road, then walk a 50-metre path down to the cabin. That short walk sets the tone. There is good distance to the neighbouring cabins, and the surrounding forest gives natural privacy. The living room has a high vaulted ceiling, an open fireplace and a wood-burning stove. Several windows look out on the woodland, and a door leads to a 7 m² terrace. It is the room where you would dry gloves and plan tomorrow's route after a day on the trails. The kitchen is simple and practical. It has wooden upper and lower cabinets, a stove, a combined fridge-freezer, and a sink that drains to a removable container. The three bedrooms are fitted with built-in single and bunk beds plus a sofa bed, and they have built-in wardrobes. At the end of the hallway there is a small utility room with a washbasin. The toilet room has an electric incineration toilet, vented through the wall and over the roof, and a panel heater. Electricity is installed throughout. ### The Sauna Annex The annex is a second living space of its own. It has a sofa bed, a small dining area and a kitchenette with custom-built cabinets. A low loft suits children or extra guests, and there is a wardrobe. The sauna has built-in benche ... click here to read more

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

Step outside on a February morning and the only sound is the creak of snow-laden pine branches. The thermometer reads minus twelve. Inside, the open fireplace is already crackling, the coffee is on, and through the frost-edged window you can see the Hallingdal valley glowing copper in the low winter sun. This is what owning a vacation home in Ål actually feels like — and once you've spent a week here, the idea of not owning one becomes genuinely hard to justify. Set along Fekjastølvegen, a quiet mountain road that winds up toward the Myset plateau at roughly 893 meters above sea level, this 75-square-meter chalet was built in 1980 and carries the kind of honest Norwegian craftsmanship that newer holiday properties simply can't replicate. Exposed timber, wooden paneling worn smooth by decades of mountain life, an entrance hall that still smells faintly of spruce — these are details that don't come from a catalogue. The building is in good condition throughout, which means you can arrive with skis on the roof and a bag of groceries and be settled in by nightfall, without a renovation project waiting for you. Inside, the layout is straightforward and sensible: an entrance hall leads into a hallway, then opens into the living room where the open fireplace is the undisputed centerpiece. On a clear evening, with the fire going and the mountains dark outside the large windows, this room earns every square meter. The kitchen is functional and well-configured for the way people actually use a mountain cabin — you're not hosting dinner parties for twenty, you're cooking pasta after a long day on the trails and eating with people you like. One bedroom, one bathroom. Enough. What makes this property genuinely interesting for a bu ... click here to read more

This 3-bedroom chalet for sale in Geilo sits at 852 metres with open valley views, a 36 m² terrace and car access right to the door.

At this altitude you get reliable snow in winter and cooler air in summer. The listing states that you can drive up in any season, which matters a great deal for a mountain home. ### The Chalet: Layout and Light The living room is the heart of the house. Large windows face the valley, the ceilings are high, and a wood-burning stove takes the edge off cold evenings. Next to it, the open-plan kitchen and dining area has a fireplace of its own, so family dinners after a day on skis happen in a warm room. There are three bedrooms and two bathrooms, plus a storage room, a hallway and an entrance area where wet boots and jackets can stay. Up in the loft (hems) there are extra sleeping spaces. It is not officially approved as a bedroom, so think of it as overflow space for children or visiting friends rather than a fourth bedroom. A garage or parking space, electricity and water are all in place. ### Terrace, Plot and Setting The 36 m² terrace is where mornings start: coffee, the valley below, and nobody else in sight. The plot is 941 m² of freehold land with a garden and natural ground around it. You can lay out a lawn and a play area, or leave the slope as it is. The position is secluded, yet the road reaches the front door. ### Skiing and Hiking Around Geilo In winter you can be on skis within minutes.
