Description

You step off the boat and the engine dies. Suddenly it's just wind through pine needles, the soft lap of water against the dock, and the distant call of a great northern diver somewhere across Lake Toke. That's the moment you understand why people fall hard for Fjordøy and never quite let go.

This three-bedroom timber chalet sits on its own 1,233 square metre island plot in the middle of Lake Toke, in Telemark's Drangedal municipality — one of the quieter corners of inland Norway that Norwegians have been quietly hoarding as a summer secret for decades. The cabin was built in 1964, and while it's been well maintained, it hasn't been sanitised into something generic. The low ceilings, the knotted pine walls, the south-facing terrace worn smooth by summers of bare feet — it feels like a place that has actually been lived in and loved.

At 42 square metres internally, it's compact but genuinely functional. The living and dining room catches southern light for most of the day, and the direct door onto the covered terrace means meals blur between inside and outside from June right through to early September. The kitchen is simple and honest. Three bedrooms sleep a family or a group of friends without anyone having to argue over sleeping arrangements. A separate utility area of 13 square metres — attached but external — holds a storage room and a toilet, which is the kind of practical Norwegian cabin thinking that makes a property actually usable rather than just photogenic.

The private shoreline and wooden boat dock are the heart of the place. Lake Toke is a serious lake — around 15 kilometres long, clear enough to swim in with confidence, deep enough to hold good-sized perch and pike. On a calm morning, you can fish from the dock before breakfast. By mid-morning, the water is warm enough for children to spend three hours in without anyone noticing. In the evenings, the light on the water turns amber and then rose, and the birch and pine on the far shore go dark in silhouette. It's the kind of view that keeps you sitting outside later than you planned.

Kayaking is the obvious way to explore — the lake has sheltered bays, small inlets, and neighbouring islands worth poking around. Canoes and rowing boats are a natural fit here too. Come winter, the lake freezes reliably and ice fishing becomes the activity of choice for locals who know the area. Drangedal isn't a ski resort, but it sits within reasonable driving distance of Telemark's broader winter landscape, and the cross-country trails around the Norsjø-Skien waterway system keep outdoor types busy year-round.

The island itself sits within the Norsjø-Skien canalway, one of Norway's most historically interesting inland waterways — the canal route connecting the interior of Telemark to the coast has been operating since 1892, and summer boat traffic along it gives the area a gentle, almost old-fashioned European feel that's rare in Scandinavia. The town of Kragerø is roughly an hour's drive south for days when you want salt water, a fish market, and something with a proper harbour front. Notodden, home to the UNESCO-recognised Notodden Blues Festival held each August, is under an hour away — a world-class event that draws international acts to a town most tourists haven't found yet.

Day-to-day practicalities are more straightforward than the boat-only access might suggest. The mainland dock is the starting point, and from there the nearest grocery store is about 6 kilometres. A larger shopping centre sits 14 kilometres away. A train station is less than 6 kilometres from the dock — the Bratsbergbanen line connects through Skien and into the wider Norwegian rail network. Oslo is roughly two and a half hours by car through Telemark's forested valleys, making this accessible for a long weekend escape from the capital without the weekend traffic of properties closer to the city. Sandefjord Airport is another option for international buyers flying in from European cities.

The grounds around the cabin include mature pine trees, lichen-covered granite outcrops, and several flat areas that work well as outdoor seating spots. A small wooden outbuilding to the northwest of the main cabin has been used as a guest room and storage shed — it adds flexibility without requiring immediate investment. There's also an older outhouse currently serving as a woodshed. The electricity connection is in place, giving you modern reliability inside a structure that otherwise leans fully into the Norwegian hytte tradition.

For international buyers, Norway's property market has specific regulations to be aware of — foreign nationals can own recreational property in Norway, though it's worth consulting a local lawyer familiar with the concession rules that apply to certain rural properties. The freehold plot (the land is owned outright, not leased) is a meaningful practical advantage. Rental income from Norwegian lake cabins with boat access and private shoreline has proven consistently strong, particularly for the June to August window; platforms serving the Scandinavian holiday rental market have seen sustained demand for genuine hytte experiences over the last several years.

This chalet is priced at NOK 149,600 — a realistic entry point for a freehold island property with direct water access in a region that delivers genuine Norwegian summer life rather than a packaged version of it.

If you've been thinking about a second home in Scandinavia, this is the kind of property that justifies making the trip in person before someone else does. Reach out through Homestra to arrange a viewing — the boat crossing alone will tell you everything you need to know.

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

Annex with covered terrace and outbuilding with storage and snowmobile garage

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

Welcome to the viewing!

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 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

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

Basement with external access via stairs

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

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

This chalet for sale in Valdres stands at 960 metres near Leira, with 1.8 hectares of private land and wide mountain views. It is a 103 m² log cabin from 1950 with two bedrooms, a later extension and two annexes. Groomed cross-country ski trails begin 800 metres away, and a year-round road runs right to the cabin. ### The Cabin: Log Walls from 1950, Extension from 2013 The original building is traditional Norwegian lafted timber, and you notice it as soon as you step in. The living room has solid wood floors, a high ceiling, wood-panelled walls and exposed beams. Big windows face the mountains, so the view is there even when you are sitting on the sofa. A wood-burning stove handles the cold evenings. The kitchen is in the 1950s part of the house. It was refitted with solid wood cabinets painted blue and has a gas stove, a gas fridge and an inset sink. Next to it is a dining room with space for a large table and a built-in fireplace with an insert. In 2013 the cabin was extended, and the bathroom sits in this newer section, with tiled floors, wood panelling and a shower cabin with a proper drain. There are two bedrooms with two single beds each, so four sleeping places in the main building. The cabin is in good condition and is sold partially furnished. You could realistically arrive with bags and groceries rather than a removal van. ### Two Terraces, Morning Sun and Evening Sun The living room opens onto an east-facing terrace, which suits the first coffee of the day. The dining room leads to a west-facing terrace for the late sun. Together the two terraces add up to 30 m², enough for a dining table and a few chairs. Most mountain cabins have one orientation to live with, and this one gives you both. ### Power, Wa ... click here to read more

Welcome to the viewing of this beautiful cabin property!

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

Spacious veranda with ample space to enjoy outdoor living in peaceful surroundings.

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

Jim Robin Henriksen v/DNB Eiendom welcomes you to Halvor Sandnes Vei 22

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!

Dawn comes slowly in Gjerstad. The mist hangs low over the spruces, the forest is dead quiet except for a woodpecker somewhere in the birches, and the only thing on the agenda is whether to pack the fishing rods or pull on the hunting boots. This 1988 cabin on Gjerstadveien 2589 was built for exactly that kind of morning — and there are 365 of them a year waiting for you here. Tucked into the upper reaches of Gjerstad municipality in Aust-Agder, this three-bedroom chalet sits on its own 867-square-metre plot where lawn gives way to natural rock and forest edge. The setting feels genuinely remote, yet the E18 motorway is within easy reach, and the coastal towns of Risør and Kragerø — both known for their white-painted wooden architecture and busy summer harbours — are a short drive south. Oslo is roughly three hours by car or train. It's that sweet spot: wild enough to feel like a proper escape, connected enough to be practical for a second home. The cabin's most significant selling point is what lies outside the front door, not inside it. The property sits within Statsskog's hunting grounds — one of the largest state-managed wilderness areas in southern Norway, spanning some 130,000 acres of managed forest. Annual hunting licences for elk, deer, and small game are available for roughly NOK 2,000 per designated zone per year, making this one of the most cost-effective entry points into Norwegian hunting culture you'll find anywhere. Five separate hunting areas are accessible from this location. For the serious hunter looking for a second home in Norway that doubles as a proper base camp, this is the real thing — not a romanticised version of it. Spring arrives late here, usually in April, and when it does, the trails a ... click here to read more

This chalet for sale in Telemark, built in 2018 at Gautefall in Drangedal, sits five minutes from the ski centre and comes with a 76 m² terrace. It is a compact, modern holiday home of 61 m² on a freehold plot of 1,571 m², in the gated Lia Hyttegrend cabin area.
