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

The outdoor area offers views towards Tomtvatnet and the surrounding hills.

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 Reiårsvatn 121 | Presented by real estate agent Kjell-Arne Arnesen | Photo: Stein Olsen

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

Welcome to Fetveien 2622!

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

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

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

Surrounding area

This chalet for sale in Eggedal, Buskerud, sits at about 840 metres with groomed cross-country ski trails 150 metres from the door. Built in 1982 and in good condition, it is a 64 m² mountain cabin with three bedrooms, a loft and a 42 m² timber terrace that catches the sun for most of the day. For a second home in Norway, it is a compact, practical way to own a place in the hills that works in both winter and summer. ### Inside the Cabin: Timber, Stone and Bunk Beds The living room has timber walls and lacquered wooden floors, and a natural stone fireplace anchors the room. Large windows face the surrounding mountains, so the view is part of every evening in front of the fire. The dining area sits by the window, which is where breakfast will end up most mornings. The open-plan kitchen has profiled pine cabinets, a laminate worktop, an extractor fan vented to the outside and a traditional wood-burning stove. There are provisions for a cooker and fridge, so you will be choosing your own appliances. Sleeping space is the real strength. All three bedrooms are fitted with family bunk beds, and a loft reached from the living room adds more. In total the cabin is set up for up to 11 people, which suits a big family or two couples with children. Living area is 64 m², with 69 m² usable. Electricity is installed. ### Water, Sewage and What to Check Before Buying This is a simple mountain cabin, and you should buy it with that in mind. The bathroom is a small hygiene room with a washbasin unit with a water pump, a shower cabin with a water tank and foot pump, and its own wood stove for heating. The seller notes that the current water pump solution is not approved for use, so ask for the water and sewage documentation and plan ... click here to read more

Welcome to the viewing!

This three-bedroom chalet for sale in Eggedal sits at 960 metres above sea level, with sun from morning to evening and open views over Kvelvsavatnet. It stands at Sandvasseter on the highland plateau between Tempelseter and Haglebu, on a freehold plot of 1,155 m². Built in 1969 and extended in 1996, the 74 m² cabin is in good condition and ready to use as a mountain base. ### The Chalet and Its Freehold Plot The plot is surrounded by natural vegetation and mountain forest, so the cabin feels private without being cut off. Because the land is freehold, you own the ground under the building. Many Norwegian mountain cabins stand on leased land, so this is worth noting. As always, have a local lawyer confirm the title during the purchase. A large wooden terrace runs from the entrance and has room for a full set of outdoor furniture. Morning coffee here means sunlight on the plateau and the lake in front of you. Later in the day the sun is still on the terrace. A fire pit has been set up in the terrain next to the cabin for cool evenings. There is also a freestanding outhouse on the property. ### Inside: Fireplace, Three Bedrooms and a Loft The entrance hall has paneled walls, wooden floors and plenty of space for boots and outerwear. Beyond it, the kitchen and living room share one open-plan space. Large windows face the mountains and the lake, and there is room for a dining table by the window. Heating is traditional. The living room has a brick open fireplace and a separate wood-burning stove, and the kitchen has its own fireplace oven. The kitchen has profiled cabinetry and a wooden countertop. A staircase from the kitchen leads to a loft with extra sleeping places and windows in the gable wall. The loft is not appr ... click here to read more

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

Welcome to Vatningvegen 132! Photo: Tor Solberg/EFKT AS

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

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

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

Welcome to a pleasant viewing!

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

Welcome to Solavågsvegen 201!

On a still morning in Mauseidvåg, you can hear the fjord before you see it. Open the cabin door and the air hits you — cold, clean, faintly salt-tinged — and through the treeline, Sulafjorden sits there like hammered pewter, the mountains on the far shore still catching the last of the night's shadow. This is what 114,000 euros buys you in northwest Norway: a 1958 timber chalet on nearly 2,000 square meters of land, with a boathouse plot at the water's edge and views that no architect could improve upon. The chalet at Nøringsetvegen 64 is a proper Norwegian fritidsbolig — a traditional leisure cabin built for people who take their weekends seriously. It sits in Mauseidvåg, a quiet coastal community on the island of Sula in Møre og Romsdal county, roughly 25 kilometers southwest of Ålesund city center. That distance matters. Close enough that a Saturday morning trip to the Brogata fish market in Ålesund takes forty minutes by car and ferry, far enough that you won't hear a single car from the veranda. Forty square meters inside, which is exactly as much space as a Norwegian cabin should have. Two bedrooms, one bathroom, a living room with a Jøtul wood-burning fireplace, and a kitchen with a window pointed directly at the fjord. The Jøtul stove — installed in 2008 and still the heart of the room — is the kind of thing Norwegians argue about lovingly. Get it going on a grey October afternoon, pour something from a flask, and the argument for staying another week becomes very easy to make. The northern bedroom has a Velux skylight fitted in 2015, so you get the full Nordic summer experience: pale sky at midnight, the strange half-light that makes sleep feel optional and irrelevant. The kitchen runs on practical logic — dr ... click here to read more

Hi guys, thanks for taking the time – I know time is precious and so is finding the right spot if you’re buying property overseas. As an agent who works with buyers from all over the world and deals with all sorts of schedules, I’ll try to keep it focused but thorough – because honestly, properties like this don’t come up that often in this area and the market here in Norway can move quick, especially for chalet style homes with these kind of surroundings. So, for anyone considering a move or just looking for a holiday haven in Norway, let’s have a closer look at this chalet at Nøringsetvegen 64 in Mauseidvåg (postcode 6036 for you planners out there). Let’s start with the big picture – where is it? Mauseidvåg is a village in the beautiful Møre og Romsdal region, which is one of those classic west coast spots that gives you all the fjord and mountain action you’re dreaming about. You’re surrounded by deep green hills, snowcapped peaks, and those striking blue waters that are basically the definition of Norwegian postcard. I get a lot of interest from expats, digital nomads, retirees, and families who want access to true ‘Norwegian nature’ but also the practical stuff like shops, schools, and transport – you’ll find all of that here, but it never feels crowded. In fact, it’s actually pretty peaceful and safe and people in the village are welcoming, even if you’re new or speak English. Local climate deserves a quick mention. This is west coast Norway, so you’ll get all four seasons – mild summers (average 13-20°C), maybe a bit of fog off the fjord in early mornings, and winters with a nice dusting of snow, but not too harsh compared to some spots further inland. It’s definitely the kind of place where you can barbecue o ... click here to read more

Step outside on a February morning and the world is completely white and completely quiet. The cross-country trail runs just 120 meters from the front door — you can hear the sound of your own skis cutting through fresh snow before the rest of the valley is even awake. This is Fetlia, a small cluster of cabins sitting at 395 meters above sea level in the Sunnmøre Alps, and this particular chalet has been holding its own here for years with a kind of unpretentious confidence that's hard to fake. The setting hits you first. Large windows across the main living space look straight out at Nysætervatnet, the lake below shifting color through the day — silver in the morning light, deep blue-green by afternoon, then a flat pewter grey as the peaks catch the last of the sun. The vaulted ceiling climbs nearly five meters overhead, which sounds like a detail on a spec sheet until you're actually standing in it and realize how rarely Norwegian mountain cabins feel this open. There's no sense of compression, no low beams making you duck. Just space, light, and a fireplace in the corner that does exactly what a fireplace should: takes the edge off a cold evening and gives everyone a reason to sit still. The kitchen is the work of Mørekjøkken — a local craftsman workshop out of the region — built in a classic L-shape from solid wood that has aged into itself rather than against itself. Integrated oven, cooktop, provisions for a washing machine. It's not a showpiece kitchen designed to be photographed; it's one designed to be used, and there's a meaningful difference. The dining area sits right alongside it, open to the living room so conversation carries easily from the stove to the sofa. Up to twelve people can sleep comfortably he ... click here to read more

Welcome to Fetlia – a beautiful cabin in scenic, peaceful surroundings near the Fjellsætra ski resort!

The first thing you notice is the silence. Not the absence of sound exactly, but a different quality of it — the soft slap of water against the boathouse hull, wind moving through the birch trees above the terrace, and if you're lucky, the distant cry of a white-tailed eagle riding a thermal over Hjørundfjorden. This is Liadal, a small coastal community tucked along the western Norwegian coast near Ørsta, and this modest fjordside chalet at Liadalsvegen 851 gives you direct, unhurried access to all of it. At 25 square metres, this isn't a property you come to for space. You come for the water. The lower level boathouse fits a vessel up to roughly 17 feet and comes equipped with an electric boat launch — you can have your boat on the fjord in minutes, not hours. That changes everything about how you spend a morning. Fishermen in this stretch of Hjørundfjorden pull up pollock, coalfish, and the occasional cod without leaving the bay. On calm summer evenings, the fjord surface turns to hammered copper in the low Arctic light, and a slow row out toward the open water with a thermos of coffee is something you genuinely don't forget. The cabin itself was built in 1958 and it carries that era honestly — solid timber construction, classic Norwegian hytte proportions, a living room with a decent ceiling height that makes the small footprint feel less compressed than you'd expect. There's a main bedroom, an entrance area with additional seating space, and a loft sleeping area above that works well for children or an extra guest. Two ground-level terraces face the fjord, and one of them catches the afternoon sun long enough to make it a proper place to sit, rather than just a ledge to stand on. The kitchen is functional rather th ... click here to read more

Welcome to Liadalsvegen 851 - a charming cabin with the fjord as your closest neighbor

The first thing you notice on a summer morning at Kvernhusmyra 1 is the light. It hits the water just west of Juvågen before seven o'clock, throwing long reflections across the terrace boards while the fjord sits glassy and still. You pour coffee in the open kitchen, slide back the glass door, and step outside before anyone else in the neighborhood is awake. That quiet — just the lap of water and the occasional gull — is what this place is really about. Built in 2013 and designed by an architect who clearly had opinions about how a holiday home should feel, this chalet on the western edge of Skodje municipality occupies a 1,172-square-metre plot roughly 100 metres from the shoreline. It's not a rustic cabin. It's not a cookie-cutter box either. The split-wing layout — east and west loft sections each with their own staircase — gives the interior an almost village-like quality, where different corners of the house take on their own personalities over the course of a day. Kids claim the loft bedrooms. Adults settle into the ground-floor living room. Everyone ends up on the terrace. The main living area is genuinely airy, thanks to extra-high ceilings and a bank of large windows that track the sun from mid-morning into the long Norwegian evenings. In July, the sky doesn't fully darken until well past ten. In the three-level layout, 107 square metres of floor space feels considerably more generous than that figure suggests, because the vertical scale keeps the rooms from ever feeling closed in. The kitchen runs a clean, practical line of veneered fronts and laminate worktops — enough counter space to actually cook a proper meal rather than just reheat things — and it opens partway into the living room so whoever is cooking ... click here to read more

This chalet for sale in Hornindal, Norway, sits 500 metres from the ski centre and has a 60 m² terrace facing Hornindalsvatnet and the mountains. Built in 2014 on a 1,634 m² plot at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in the Harevadet cabin area, it is a 74 m² two-bedroom in good condition. You get a wood-burning stove, a winter garden and a woodshed that opens straight off it. The whole thing is set up for low-effort use: arrive, light the stove, and the weekend starts. ### The Chalet: Layout and Light The living room has high ceilings, large windows and glass doors that frame the surrounding mountains and the lake. The kitchen is open to the living area, so whoever is cooking stays part of the conversation. On cold evenings the wood-burning stove does the heavy lifting. The main floor has two bedrooms. One has a double bed, the other a bunk bed, which keeps the floor space free. Upstairs, a loft (hems) adds more sleeping places, handy for children or overflow guests. Because of its lower ceiling height it is not counted in the official 74 m², so the space you actually use is a little larger than the number suggests. The bathroom is tiled and has a shower cabin, a toilet, underfloor heating and a connection for a washing machine. After a day on skis, a warm floor is a small luxury you will notice immediately. ### Terrace, Winter Garden and Plot The terrace is over 60 m² and wraps around several sides of the chalet, so there is always a corner with sun or shelter from the wind. Morning coffee facing the valley, dinner on the other side: the layout gives you the choice. For days when the weather does not cooperate, the winter garden is a glass-walled, sheltered space where you can still sit with the view. The woodshed co ... click here to read more

Nestled in the heart of Brandal, a quaint village renowned for its breathtaking fjord views and vibrant community life, Murabrauta 10 offers a unique opportunity to own a piece of Norway's natural beauty. This charming timber house, dating back to the 1920s, seamlessly blends historical allure with modern comforts, making it an ideal second home or vacation retreat.

A conveniently located bedroom on this floor caters to guests or those preferring single-level living, while the functional bathroom ensures ease of access. Upstairs, the loft area houses four additional bedrooms, offering plenty of sleeping accommodations for family and visitors. Two storage closets provide space for personal belongings and seasonal items, ... click here to read more

Imagine waking up on a July morning to the soft knock of lake water against your own private shoreline. You pull back the pine-framed window and the cool, clean air off Brusdalsvannet rolls in — the kind of air that makes you feel like you've done something right with your life. That's what mornings look like at this two-bedroom Norwegian chalet on Olvikvegen 4, and honestly, it's hard to go back to any other kind. Skodje is the sort of place that doesn't make a lot of noise about itself, which is precisely why people who know western Norway tend to love it. Tucked into the fjord landscape of Møre og Romsdal county, roughly 12 kilometres from the coastal city of Ålesund, the municipality sits in a narrow band of green hills and glassy water that most international travelers fly right over on their way to more obvious destinations. Their loss. The drive in from Ålesund Airport takes about 25 minutes, and once you're here, the outside world genuinely feels optional. The chalet itself dates to 1932 in spirit — you can feel the lineage in the warm pine flooring and horizontal timber cladding — but a full reconstruction in 1999 gave it the bones of a much younger building. PVC double-glazed energy windows installed as recently as 2016 keep drafts out through the long Norwegian winters, and the overall condition is solid and well maintained. Nothing here asks to be fixed before you can enjoy it. At 48 square metres of interior space across a ground floor and a sleeping loft, it's compact by design. Every square metre earns its keep. Downstairs, the living room and kitchen share an open layout that makes the space feel generous despite the footprint. Pine panelling lines the walls from floor to ceiling — warm, golden, unpret ... click here to read more

Nestled in the heart of Norway's enchanting landscape, Berknesvegen 931 in Volda offers a unique opportunity to own a chalet that perfectly balances seclusion with accessibility. This four-bedroom property is more than just a holiday home; it's a gateway to a lifestyle rich in natural beauty, outdoor adventure, and serene relaxation.

Here, the panoramic views of the surrounding fjords and mountains are not just a backdrop but a daily invitation to explore and unwind. A Home Designed for Comfort and Functionality This chalet spans three thoughtfully designed levels, ensuring ample space for family gatherings or quiet retreats.
