Description

Step outside on a July morning at Kvernhusheia 91 and the first thing you notice is the silence — or rather, the particular quality of it. No traffic, no machinery, just the faint sound of water moving somewhere below the ridge and, if you're lucky, a pair of fieldfares arguing in the birch trees. The lake is already catching the sun. You've got coffee in hand and the whole day belongs to you.

That is the daily reality of owning this three-bedroom Norwegian mountain chalet in Fossdal, a compact and unhurried community tucked into the highlands of Agder, roughly midway between Kristiansand and the Hardangervidda plateau. At 440 meters above sea level, the air has a sharp, clean edge to it — the kind that makes you feel properly awake after a week of city life.

Built in 1989 and maintained in good condition, the chalet stretches across 107 square metres and sits on a leasehold plot with an annual ground rent that keeps ongoing costs very manageable for an international buyer. The interior layout makes sensible use of every square metre. A generous entrance hall handles the practical realities of mountain living — wet boots, ski gear, hiking packs — before opening into the main living and kitchen area. It's an open-plan space, but not in the sterile, magazine-spread way. It feels lived in, sociable, designed for the kind of slow evenings where dinner stretches on because nobody wants to leave the table.

There's also a separate TV lounge off the main living space. Smaller, quieter, good for when the kids want to watch something and the adults want to not watch something. Three bedrooms handle sleeping for the family and guests without anyone feeling squeezed — the large windows in each room pull in natural light and frame views of the surrounding terrain that no amount of interior decoration could compete with. A full bathroom with shower and a separate WC and laundry room round out the practical side of things.

But what really makes this property is what happens outside.

The covered outdoor lounge — fitted with a fireplace — is the kind of feature that redefines how you use a mountain property across the seasons. In late August, when the evenings start cooling and the heather turns purple across the hillside, you can sit out here well past ten o'clock. In November, with snow coming down and a proper fire going, it feels almost theatrical. You don't retreat indoors; you just pull on another layer. The secluded sun terrace takes things further still — a private spot with a hot tub looking directly out over Sandvatn lake, the mountains rising in layers behind it. After a long day on the trails, this is where the conversation goes quiet in the best possible way.

Sandvatn itself is the centrepiece of the area's summer life. There's a designated swimming zone with a floating dock and a diving tower, plus a few sandy stretches along the shoreline. Canoes and kayaks are easy to hire locally, and the lake is calm enough for beginners but large enough to feel like a proper adventure. Fishing — mostly trout and perch — is a serious pursuit for many cabin owners here, and the surrounding waterways give you plenty of options. A small garage and a separate storage shed handle the practical accumulation of kit: fishing rods, paddles, bikes, skis.

Come winter, the landscape flips entirely. Snowmobile tracks open up access across the plateau, and cross-country skiing routes lace through the terrain at a level of variety that rewards everything from a Sunday-morning ski with young children to a full-day traverse. The Eikerapen alpine ski resort sits roughly 30 minutes away by car — a good-sized mountain with proper piste variety, a ski school, and a lodge that does elk stew on cold days worth driving for.

Day-to-day logistics are straightforward. The village of Kyrkjebygd, about 30 minutes by road, covers the essentials: grocery store, petrol, a few local services. A bus stop is accessible within about 15 minutes. Kristiansand Airport, served by daily flights from Oslo and Bergen, brings the property within practical reach for a long weekend — fly in Friday afternoon, be at the chalet by early evening. For European buyers, Kristiansand is also reachable via the Color Line ferry from Hirtshals in Denmark, which turns the journey into part of the trip rather than just transit.

The property has its own borehole for water supply and a septic tank for sewage — both standard and well-regarded infrastructure for this type of Norwegian mountain holding. Electricity is connected. The fireplace adds both warmth and atmosphere. The child-friendly surroundings — the lake, the open terrain, the pace of life — make this the kind of place where children actually put their phones down.

On the investment side, Norwegian recreational property in mountain lake areas has held steady demand from both domestic and Scandinavian buyers over the past decade, with particular interest from German and Dutch buyers seeking accessible Nordic nature escapes. As a holiday home, the chalet lends itself to rental use during peak summer weeks and the ski season, and property management companies operating in the Setesdal and Agder regions can handle bookings and maintenance for owners who aren't locally based. Norwegian property law is transparent and well-structured for foreign buyers, with no restrictions on EU or EEA citizens purchasing recreational property, and clear frameworks for those outside those zones.

At a price of €141,000, this chalet represents genuine value against comparable Norwegian mountain properties — particularly those with lake views, hot tubs, and outdoor lounge infrastructure already in place.

If you've been looking for a Norwegian mountain holiday home that puts you directly inside the landscape rather than just near it, Kvernhusheia 91 is worth your attention. Reach out through Homestra to arrange a viewing or to request the full property documentation — and ask about the current availability of the hot tub terrace at sunset in September, because that particular detail tends to close a lot of conversations.

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 Telemark sits near Gautefall ski area, with four bedrooms, 92 m² of living space and a 1,103 m² plot in Nissedal. Built in 2010 and kept in good condition, it is a cabin that works the way Norwegian mountain homes should: boots by the door, a wood stove for the evenings, and snow or trail access close by. It is a practical choice if you want a second home in Norway that you can use every season, rather than only in July. ### The Chalet: 92 m² Built in 2010 The main living area is open-plan. Living room, dining space and kitchen share one room, and the large windows pull in plenty of light and look out over the surrounding nature. There is enough floor space for both a sofa group and a proper dining table, so a full house of guests does not mean eating in shifts. The kitchen has profiled fronts painted a deep red, a bit of colour in a room that otherwise leans on the view. There are four bedrooms, which is the real strength here. Two families can share it, or you can keep a room free for friends who always turn up on ski weekends. The single bathroom has a tiled floor with underfloor heating, panelled walls and ceiling, a vanity with upper and lower cabinets, a shower cabin and a toilet. Underfloor heating matters when you come in from a cross-country loop at minus ten. A fireplace or wood stove gives the main room its winter heart. Beyond that you get a technical room and a separate storage room (bod) for skis, bikes and tools. The cabin is connected to public water and sewage and has electricity, so there is no off-grid fuss to manage. ### The Plot and Setting at 534 Metres The 1,103 m² plot has a garden and a balcony/terrace, ideal for morning coffee while the light moves across the trees ... 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

The location at Ekne offers expansive fjord views and short distance to Ekne center and small boat harbor.

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 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

Welcome to a pleasant viewing!

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

From the property, it is about 10 minutes to Haglebu ski center and about 30 minutes to Norefjell.

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 mountain cabin for sale in Valdres sits at 1,020 metres near Leira, with a 3,189 m² freehold plot and ski trails 90 metres from the door. It stands at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in the Geitryggen area of Pilset, in Nord-Aurdal, on gently sloping, almost level natural terrain. Built in 1975 and in good condition, the cabin has three bedrooms, a kitchen fitted in 2022 and electricity connected in 2021. The shops of Leira are about 15 to 20 minutes away by car, so you can be properly remote and still restock easily. ### The Cabin: Layout, Stoves and 2022 Kitchen You climb a wooden staircase to a painted stable door, fitted in 2018. Inside is a windbreak with solid wood flooring and panelled walls and ceiling, a sensible place to shed wet boots before the main rooms. A hallway leads from there to the bedrooms, the bathroom and the open living area. The living room is the best room in the house. Exposed beams run along the sloped ceiling, the floors are solid wood, and large windows look over open mountain towards the Hemsedal mountains and Skogshorn. Heat comes from a soapstone stove installed in 2020 and a classic wood-burning stove, a good pairing when the temperature drops at this altitude. The kitchen is open to the living room, so whoever is cooking stays part of the conversation. Everything was installed in 2022: smooth-fronted cabinets, a worktop with integrated sink and cooktop, oven, dishwasher, fridge and extractor fan. There are three bedrooms with wooden floors and panelled walls and ceilings. They have space for double beds and bunk beds, which suits a family or a group of friends. The bathroom has a shower cabin, a sink with vanity unit, a wall-mounted panel heater and an external wall vent. One ... click here to read more

DNB Eiendom v/Torleif Løvfald Gaard presents Pilsetvegen 832!

This chalet for sale in Myrkdalen, Vestland, stands about 300 metres from the Storhaug Express ski lift, so the slopes are practically your front garden. It is a 1966 mountain cabin with two bedrooms, a wood-burning stove and new windows, on a 691 m² plot at roughly 468 metres above sea level. At 58 m² it is compact on purpose: easy to heat, quick to open up on a Friday night and simple to close again on Sunday. If you are looking for a holiday home in Vestland that works in ski season and in summer, this cabin is built around exactly that rhythm. ### The Chalet: 58 m² of Traditional Cabin Living The lounge and kitchen share one open room, and the wood-burning stove is its centre. After a day on the hill, that is where everyone ends up. Large windows face the surrounding mountains and forest, and the recently replaced windows help keep the warmth in. There are two bedrooms and one bathroom. The entrance area is roomy enough for coats, boots and wet gear, which in a ski cabin matters more than an extra armchair. Storage is built into the layout rather than added as an afterthought. Outside you get a separate outbuilding (uthus) for skis, bikes and tools, plus a parking space or garage. The garden is low-maintenance and blends into the natural terrain, so there is no lawn to keep up between visits. The condition is good, and the 1966 cabin character has been kept rather than renovated away. ### Skiing and Hiking Around Myrkdalen Myrkdalen is a well-known ski area in western Norway, and the Storhaug Express lift is about 300 metres from the door. The seller describes the cabin as ski-in from the lift, so ask to walk the winter route when you view. Alpine skiing is the obvious draw, and the surrounding terrain also su ... click here to read more

This three-bedroom chalet for sale in Rogaland sits on a 601 m² freehold plot in Sokndal, with a 36 m² terrace and a view toward Åsvolltjødna lake. Built in 2006 and in good condition, it has 69 m² of living space, one bathroom and a wood-burning stove under a vaulted ceiling. It stands at roughly 380 metres above sea level in the Åsvoll area, a quiet corner of southern Norway with lakes and forest on the doorstep. If you want a cabin in Norway that you can use on any weekend of the year, this one is ready to move into. ### Inside the Chalet: 69 m² Under a Vaulted Ceiling The living room is the heart of the house. The ceiling rises high, the windows are large, and on a bright day the whole room fills with daylight and a wide view of the surroundings. The wood-burning stove sits in this room, so winter evenings can be spent beside a real fire. The living room opens straight into the kitchen. There are smooth-fronted cabinets, a solid wood countertop and a modern extractor above the stove. With one open space for cooking, eating and talking, a full table of guests never leaves the cook in a separate room. There are three bedrooms, enough for a family or two couples sharing a week by the lake. The bathroom is tiled on floor and walls, with a vanity unit and a glass-enclosed shower corner. A separate toilet means the morning queue is shorter than you might fear. A heat pump handles day-to-day heating alongside the stove. ### Terrace, Garden and Lake Views From the living room you step directly onto a terrace of about 36 m². That is room for a proper outdoor table, a couple of loungers and a grill. The terrace is surrounded by greenery, which keeps it private. The plot measures about 601 m² and is laid out as a lawn, ... 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 Buskerud stands 150 metres from Grytevatn lake, near the Trillemarka nature reserve, with an 88 m² terrace and a separate annex. It is a three-bedroom cabin on a freehold plot of 1,414 m², in the Sigdal hills about 20 minutes' drive from Prestfoss. The cabin was built in 1990 and brought up to date in 2017. The previous owners kept the pine-panelled interior and added a new roof, new exterior panelling and new windows. If you want a cabin for sale in Norway that you can use next month without a building project, this one fits. ### The Cabin, the Annex and the 88 m² Terrace You step into an entrance hall, then into the living room. Walls and ceiling are wood-panelled, and there is room for both a sofa group and a dining table. A wood-burning stove, installed in 2018, heats the room on cold evenings. A door leads straight out to the terrace. The terrace is the main draw. At about 88 m² it holds several seating areas, so you can eat at one end and drink your morning coffee at the other, looking over forested hills and the lake. The kitchen was refitted in 2017 with new cabinetry and a laminate worktop. It runs on a gas stove and a gas refrigerator. The main cabin has two bedrooms. One has a double bed and a wardrobe, the other a bunk bed. The separate annex adds a third bedroom and a storage room, which suits visiting friends or children who want their own space. Elsewhere on the plot you will find a woodshed and a traditional outdoor toilet in its own small building. ### How the Cabin Works: Solar Power, Gas and Shared Water This is a true off-grid-style cabin. Electricity comes from solar panels. Cooking and refrigeration run on gas. Water comes from a shared water house serving the cabin ar ... click here to read more

DNB Eiendom v/Ann-Kristin Salvesen presents Veggesrudsetra 29!

This chalet for sale in Kodal, Vestfold, comes with a 97 m² outbuilding holding three stables on a sunny 1,342 m² plot beside ski trails. It sits at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, with forest along the edge of the garden and the kind of silence you only notice once you stop talking. For anyone who wants a second home in Norway that works in every season and has room for horses or hobbies, this combination is hard to find at this price. ### A 39 m² Cabin with a Fireplace The cabin measures about 39 m² and the layout is simple: entrance hall, vestibule, living room and kitchen. Inside it follows the traditional Norwegian cabin style, with wooden paneling and a fireplace for cold evenings. Large windows bring daylight into the living room and frame the landscape outside. The condition is good, so you can arrive with a bag of groceries rather than a list of repairs. Electricity is connected. At this size the cabin is easy to look after and easy to close up between visits, which matters for a holiday home in Vestfold that you might only use on weekends and school holidays. ### The Outbuilding: Three Stables, Saddle Rooms and a Loft The real surprise is the second building. The outbuilding covers roughly 97 m² and contains three stables, two saddle rooms, two storage rooms and a large loft. The stables are solidly built and have windows, so the interior is bright rather than cave-like. The grounds previously included a fenced paddock, so horses have lived here before. If you do not keep horses, the same space can hold bikes, skis, tools, firewood and garden equipment, or work as a hobby workshop. Any change of use is a question for the local municipality, so ask before you plan anything ambitious. ### Garden, Fire Pit a ... click here to read more

Welcome to Hvitsteinveien 712 – freedom in scenic surroundings

This chalet for sale in Telemark sits in Havrefjell, Åmli, with groomed cross-country ski tracks less than 100 metres from the cabin. Built in 2011 and in good condition, it is a compact 52 m² cabin on an 817 m² plot, roughly 393 metres above sea level. That height matters in winter. Snow tends to stay, the air is cold and clean, and the prepared tracks are close enough that you can clip into your skis and go after breakfast. A driveway runs all the way to the cabin, so arriving with groceries and bags in January is no ordeal. ### The Cabin: Layout and Condition The floor plan is simple and easy to live in. You enter through a hall into an open living room and kitchen. There are two bedrooms, a bathroom, an internal storage room and a second storage room that you reach from outside. The living room is big enough for a dining table and a sofa group, so a family can eat, play cards and sprawl out without anyone being in the way. From the living room you step straight onto a 35 m² west-facing terrace. It gets the evening sun, which makes it the natural place for dinner after a day on the trails. The kitchen has light, profiled fronts and a laminate worktop, and the freestanding appliances are included in the sale. A fireplace or wood stove takes care of the cosy evenings. The bathroom has tiled floors with underfloor heating, a shower cabin, a sink with upper and lower cabinets and plumbing for a washing machine. The hot water heater is in here too. The main bedroom fits a double bed and a sliding-door wardrobe. The second bedroom works for children or guests. ### The Plot and Easy Year-Round Access The 817 m² plot is a garden with a gravel driveway and room to park. It is easy to look after, which is what you want f ... click here to read more

Welcome to Kyrtjønn 5! Photo: Dag Frogner / Boligfotograf1. The cabin is from 2011 and appears cozy and well-maintained.

This chalet for sale in Klæbu sits on 967 m² of forest plot above Selbusjøen, with a private boathouse on the water and Trondheim 35 minutes away. There are no immediate neighbours, so the soundtrack is wind in the trees and the odd boat out on the lake. The cabin dates from 1969 and is in good condition, with pine panelling and a big fireplace that keep its traditional Norwegian character. It has one bedroom plus a loft that sleeps the whole family, which makes it a practical holiday home in Trøndelag rather than a project. ### The Cabin: 66 m² with Pine Panelling and a Fireplace You enter through a hall with coat hooks, storage cabinets and a fridge, a sensible spot for wet boots and the weekend shopping. The living room is the main space, with pine-panelled walls and a large fireplace that will do most of the work on cool evenings. The kitchen has a stove and a sink fed by a private well, and the window looks over Selbusjøen, so even the washing-up comes with a view. There is built-in storage under the stairs. The ground-floor bedroom takes a double bed and connects to a bathroom with a sink, mirror and shower. A water heater is included and can be installed to give hot water for the shower. Upstairs, the open loft is furnished with three double beds, bringing the sleeping capacity to eight. The interior measures 66 m² (BRA-i), with 85 m² of total usable area and another 19 m² of external storage. ### Terrace, Garden and Your Own Boathouse The 17 m² terrace catches the sun, and the garden gives children room to play or you room to grow a few vegetables. A storage shed works as both firewood store and workshop. The plot is surrounded by woodland and lies at about 211 metres above sea level. A short stroll from t ... click here to read more

For ski enthusiasts, Vassfjellet Vinterpark is only about 15 minutes away.

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

Local mountain lakes in Sandvassmarka offer excellent trout fishing opportunities (private photo by seller).

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

Welcome to Abusdalsvegen 1422

Step outside on a January morning and the cross-country ski tracks are literally 50 meters from your front door. No packing the car, no driving to a trailhead, no fuss — just click into your bindings and go. That is what makes this cabin at Murtetjønn in Hornnes, Norway, different from most leisure properties on the market, and why the people who find it tend not to let it go. Murtetjønnvegen 18 sits at around 384 meters above sea level in the established Tveit cabin area, about 13 kilometers from the busy little town of Evje in Aust-Agder. The site itself faces well toward the sun, and in high summer the terrace catches light from early morning until gone 21:30 in the evening — that particular kind of long Nordic light that makes you lose track of time over a meal or a glass of wine outside. The cabin was built in 1976 and has been kept in good condition throughout. It has the bones of a proper Norwegian hytte: a vindfang entrance hall where you dump wet boots and damp ski gear, an open-plan living room and kitchen that genuinely functions as the social heart of the place, and two bedrooms that sleep family or friends without anyone feeling cramped. One bathroom. Sixty-nine square meters in total. This is not a sprawling villa — it is a place built around the idea that you don't actually need much space to feel at home, and that is entirely the point. The large windows in the living area pull in the surrounding pine forest and the shimmer off Murtetjønn Lake below, so the outdoors never feels far away even when the wood stove is going and the rain is hammering on the roof. That terrace is worth dwelling on. At roughly 51 square meters, it is generous enough to have separate zones — a spot for the morning coffee, a ta ... click here to read more

Step outside on a February morning and the ski tracks are right there — literally less than 50 meters from the front door. You clip in, push off, and within minutes you're gliding through silent spruce forest with nothing but the sound of your own breathing and the occasional crack of a branch under snow. That's the daily reality at Stangeråsvegen 96 in Hornnes, and it's the kind of thing you stop taking for granted only when you leave. This is a compact, honest cabin — 43 square meters of warm interior space sitting at 428 meters above sea level on a generous 988-square-meter plot in the established Stangeråsen cabin community. Built in 1980 and kept in good condition throughout, it comes fully furnished and ready to use from the first weekend you own it. Everything is included: sofas, beds, kitchen appliances, the gas stove, the fridge, white goods — the whole lot. Bring a bag, buy some groceries in Evje on the way, and you're in. The veranda wraps around three sides of the cabin, which matters more than it sounds. Morning coffee faces east into the forest. Afternoon sun swings around to the south. By evening you're still outside with a glass of something, watching the light drop behind the ridgeline. The lot gets sun for most of the day, which in a Norwegian mountain cabin context is genuinely valuable — not a marketing line. Inside, the layout is straightforward and sensible. Entrance, hallway, living room, kitchen, a toilet room, one bedroom, and a storage closet. The living room has enough space for a proper sofa arrangement and a dining table where four people can sit without elbowing each other. A staircase leads up to a loft — furnished with extra sleeping spots, good for kids or overflow guests, though not f ... click here to read more

Welcome to Bakkevegen 6

Step off the gravel driveway on a January morning and you'll hear it before you see it — silence. Not the uncomfortable kind, but the deep, pressing quiet that only comes when a full metre of snow has settled across the spruce forest, and the nearest main road is far enough away that it doesn't matter. That's Lislåttane. That's what you're buying into. Sitting on a generous plot in the Fjellestad cabin area just outside Hornnes in Agder county, this four-bedroom Norwegian chalet at Lislåttane 32 is the kind of place that becomes the fixed point in a family's calendar. The week everyone agrees on. The place the kids talk about in February because they can't wait to get back. The chalet covers 118 square metres on a single level — no stairs, no split-levels, just a logical, easy flow that works brilliantly when you've got a group of ten in the house and wet ski gear drying in the hallway. The living room was extended in 2008/2009, and the difference shows. There's genuine space here — room for a deep sofa arrangement and a proper dining table where everyone can sit together, not the cramped, elbows-on-knees situation you find in so many older Norwegian cabins of this era. Modern recessed lighting runs across the ceiling, softened by the warm pine surfaces that wrap the walls and floor. On a grey November afternoon, with the wood-burner going, it feels genuinely warm rather than aesthetically warm, which is a distinction worth making. The kitchen opens directly into the living area, which means whoever's cooking the Saturday night lamb chops or the post-hike soup doesn't get exiled to a separate room. Storage and countertop space are generous — this isn't a kitchen designed for heating soup and giving up. Large windows l ... click here to read more
