The ten-minute boat ride from Snatra jetty is the first hint that your life is about to slow down considerably. You cut through the glassy water of Lövstabukten Bay, the smell of salt and pine hitting you before the island does, and then there it is — Slanten, sitting on its plot of open lawn with that big wooden deck catching the morning light. You tie up at the jetty, step onto the dock, and the mainland starts to feel very far away. That's the point. Skärplinge sits on the Uppland coast in Tierps kommun, roughly 40 kilometers north of Uppsala and about 90 minutes from Stockholm's Arlanda Airport. But Oxholmen itself — the small island where this property sits — operates on a different clock entirely. No through traffic, no neighbors cutting grass at seven in the morning, no delivery vans. What you get instead is the sound of water moving against the hull of your moored boat and, on still evenings, the occasional cry of a common tern wheeling overhead. The cottage itself covers 46 square meters, which sounds compact until you realize how smartly it's laid out. The kitchen is built for long meals rather than quick ones — there's a proper dining area where you can seat a crowd and still have room to move around. A wood-burning stove in the adjoining living room means that overcast September days, when the archipelago turns steely and atmospheric, are genuinely comfortable rather than something to endure. The bedroom is quiet in the way that only island bedrooms are quiet. No street noise, no sirens, just whatever the wind is doing. The glazed veranda is where you'll spend most of your waking hours. It faces the water, it catches the light from mid-morning onwards, and because it's enclosed, it extends the useful seaso ... click here to read more

The first thing you notice is the silence. Not the uncomfortable kind — the deep, full kind, broken only by the lap of water against the shore and the occasional knock of a woodpecker somewhere back in the pines. You step out of the car, the smell of spruce and lake water hits you all at once, and within about thirty seconds, your shoulders drop two inches. That's what this place does to you. This 33-square-meter lakeside cottage in the Simrishamn area of Sweden is about as honest a property as you'll find on the market right now. No electricity. No running water. No sewage system. And for the right buyer — someone who actually wants to unplug rather than just talk about it — those aren't drawbacks. They're the entire point. Inside, the cottage is built the way Swedish summer houses have been built for generations: wood-paneled walls and ceilings that glow amber in the afternoon light, large windows that put the lake and forest directly in your sightline whether you're eating breakfast or just sitting still. The kitchen is stripped back to what you actually need — gas stove, wood-burning stove, work surfaces, storage. Meals here tend to be simple: perch caught that morning, potatoes from a local farm, coffee brewed slowly while the morning mist burns off the water. The living room doubles as a social space and an extra sleeping area, with a built-in open fireplace that makes the cooler evenings in September feel genuinely cozy rather than something to endure. A separate room holds a bunk bed — practical for kids, or guests who've earned their keep by helping split firewood. The outbuilding, around 9 square meters, keeps the practical stuff organized: a season's worth of firewood, fishing rods, hiking boots, the kayak ... click here to read more

Wake up on a Saturday morning in July to the sound of absolute nothing — no traffic, no notifications, no neighbors above you. Just the faint lap of Hedsjön's water through the pines, and the smell of woodsmoke still lingering from last night's fire. That's the opening scene of owning this compact, fully furnished country cottage at Hedsjöns fäbodar 308, tucked into the forests of Lingbo in Ockelbo municipality, central Sweden. Thirty square meters sounds small until you're actually here. Then it just feels right — a single bedroom, a main room anchored by a proper fireplace, and a front porch where a morning coffee becomes a half-hour ritual. Everything unnecessary has already been stripped away by decades of seasonal use, leaving only what actually matters: warmth, stillness, and a lake a few hundred meters down the track. Hedsjön itself is the kind of lake that doesn't show up in tourist brochures. It belongs to the people who live near it. In summer, the water temperature climbs high enough for long afternoon swims, and the lake is shallow enough near the banks that kids can wade out without worry. Bring a rod — pike and perch are common catches, and there's something genuinely satisfying about cooking what you caught on a wood stove. A rowboat on a quiet weekday morning, mist still sitting on the surface, is one of those experiences that's hard to explain to people who haven't tried it. The forest around the cottage is old-growth mixed woodland — spruce, birch, and pine — and it's working forest in the best sense. Come late August, the ground shifts to a carpet of chanterelles. Lingonberries arrive in September, cloudberries if you know where to look. This is the kind of foraging that Swedes take quietly seriousl ... click here to read more

Early July morning. You slide open the window and the smell hits you first — pine resin warming in the sun, a faint salt edge carried in from the Baltic. The forest around Tärnstigen 3 is already alive with birdsong, and somewhere down the trail, maybe two hundred meters, the water glitters between the spruce trunks. This is what a Swedish summer actually feels like. Not a postcard. The real thing. Jonskär sits inside the Söderhamn archipelago, a stretch of the Swedish High Coast where the land breaks apart into islands, inlets, and rocky skerries that drop into the Gulf of Bothnia. It is less famous than the Stockholm or Gothenburg archipelagos, which is precisely the point. There are no queues for kayak rentals here, no overpriced waterfront restaurants with a two-week wait. What you get instead is a genuine, working summer community — Swedish families who have been coming to these islands for generations, neighbors who actually say good morning, and water clean enough that you think twice before stepping out of it. The cottage on Tärnstigen sits on 1,529 square meters of its own forested plot. That is a significant footprint for a property at this price point in the Swedish archipelago. The trees give the lot a natural privacy screen that no fence could replicate, and the outdoor seating area tucked into the greenery becomes the real living room from June through August. Coffee there at seven in the morning, with light already slanting gold through the pines, becomes the kind of habit you will rearrange your calendar to protect. Inside, the 50 square meters work harder than that number suggests. The layout is compact and honest — a kitchen, a proper bedroom that fits a double bed with room to spare, a living room a ... click here to read more

Early morning in Värmland, the lake is completely still. You slide open the glass door of the sunroom and step out with a cup of coffee, and the only sound is a loon calling somewhere across Rådasjön. The birch trees along the shore are doing that thing they do in late summer — that soft shimmer when the light catches them just right. This is what Ås 47 feels like from the inside. Set on a 1,212-square-metre plot stepping down to the water's edge outside Hagfors, this 1964-built country home has been maintained in genuinely good condition — no project, no major surprises. The main house covers 45 square metres across three rooms and a kitchen, which sounds modest until you understand how the layout works. Space here is measured differently. The sunroom extends the kitchen outward toward the lake, functioning as a second living area for most of the warmer months. The workshop opens onto a stone terrace right at the waterline. The guest cottage runs independently of the main house entirely. You're not buying 45 square metres — you're buying a small compound. Inside the main house, the wood-burning stove in the living room is the centerpiece it deserves to be. On a grey October afternoon, with rain coming off the lake and the fire going, that room earns every bit of the cliché people usually reach for. The kitchen combines an induction cooktop with a traditional wood stove — the induction for speed, the wood stove for the smell, the ritual, and the Swedish pancakes on Sunday morning that genuinely taste different when cooked over wood. The glass-enclosed sunroom off the kitchen is oriented to catch morning and midday light across the water. It will become the room where your family spends most of its time. The main bedro ... click here to read more

Alright – let me take a moment in between showings and write you up an honest, detailed story about this special place I have out in the Swedish countryside. I’m often showing properties all over, but this one grabbed my attention for a few reasons, and it’s got that right mix for someone looking for a private home in Sweden that’s still not too far from things. I know my overseas clients have a lot of questions about area and climate, so I’ll break it all down. Let’s start with the basics and I’ll weave in my observations along the way. Located up in the north of Sweden, just outside the small but growing town of Kåge (around 10 min to Skellefteå by car), you’ll find this cottage-style country home sitting on Övägen 107. This is solid country living, but you’re not totally isolated; you get those woods and the peacful setting, but if you need milk or want a coffee out, it’s not a huge drive or hike to town. First off, the cottage isn’t massive at 48 square meters, it’s more designed for either a single or a couple, or maybe as a peaceful little retreat for someone who wants an escape from the city chaos – though you could use it as your full-time home if you like that way of life. There’s just one bedroom, but it’s roomy, and then there’s 1 bathroom that’s been updated recently. I’ve seen people convert sleepy cottages like this into a full-time home with no trouble, maybe use the upper floor for guests – it works if you want the basics plus some comfort, and don’t need extra luxury. There’s also a proper sized plot – 1,964 square meters, so if you dream of a garden (or maybe keep chickens, classic country stuff), you’ve got the space. Let’s talk features and layout, quick bullet-point style: - Approx 48 sqm interio ... click here to read more

Step outside on a September morning and the air carries something you can't quite name at first — pine resin, damp earth, the faint sweetness of ripening apples from the three old trees at the edge of the lawn. The forest starts just beyond the fence line, and somewhere in there a woodpecker is hammering away at a birch. This is Norra Källbomark 40, a 130-year-old Swedish country house sitting on over a hectare of land outside Byske, and mornings here feel nothing like anywhere else. Built in 1891 and standing in genuinely good condition, this 1.5-story house has the solid bones of late 19th-century Swedish rural construction — thick walls, wooden floors that creak in the right places, windows that frame the surrounding meadows like paintings you never get tired of looking at. The 80 square metres of living space is arranged across two to three bedrooms depending on how you use the upper half-storey, a living room, and a functional kitchen that gets good afternoon light. It's the kind of layout that doesn't waste space on formality. You cook, you eat nearby, you move outside. And outside is really the point. Over 10,000 square metres of plot means you have genuine room to breathe — to grow things, to let children run without watching the edge of a terrace, to set up a proper vegetable garden or just leave most of it as the open meadow it already is. The three apple trees produce reliably each autumn; last year's crop was enough for sauce, cider, and still giving away bags to neighbours. The traditional barn at the back is built for purpose — storage, a workshop, a place to keep firewood bone dry through a Swedish winter. The separate sauna building is not a luxury add-on here. It's a Thursday evening, a Sunday afternoo ... click here to read more
