Description
Welcome to Holvik vestre 5, a charming and cozy high mountain cabin situated in the breathtaking natural surroundings of Holvik in Rauland, right on the edge of the Hardangervidda plateau. This property offers a unique opportunity to own a traditional Norwegian cabin at 972 meters above sea level, where you can truly immerse yourself in the tranquility and beauty of the Norwegian highlands.
The cabin is thoughtfully designed with a practical and inviting floor plan, featuring a spacious deck at the entrance where you can enjoy excellent sunlight and stunning views of the surrounding mountains and valleys. The outdoor area is well-maintained, with a combination of lawn and a large wooden terrace, providing the perfect setting for relaxation and outdoor gatherings in peaceful and quiet surroundings.
Inside, the cabin offers a warm and welcoming atmosphere, with charming wooden surfaces, open ceilings, and a cozy living room that seamlessly connects to a well-equipped kitchen nook. The living room is bathed in natural light thanks to large windows that offer panoramic views of the picturesque landscape. A central feature of the living area is the brick fireplace with an open hearth, creating a pleasant warmth and a wonderful ambiance, especially during the colder months. The living room also includes a dining area, and the seller notes that the sofa and dining table are included in the sale, with the possibility of additional furniture by agreement.
The kitchen, renovated around 2021, features modern Ikea cabinetry, a solid wood countertop with an integrated stainless steel sink, and a fold-down power outlet. There is also a wood-burning stove (Morsø, installed in 2025) for additional heating and a rustic touch. The kitchen is designed for functionality and style, making meal preparation a pleasure even in this remote setting. Please note that while water is supplied to the kitchen, it has not been officially approved or applied for.
The cabin includes one bedroom, located in the extended part of the building and accessible from the entrance hall. The bedroom is currently furnished with a 1.20-meter bed and a chest of drawers, providing a comfortable and private sleeping space. Additionally, part of the living room can be used as a sleeping alcove, offering flexibility for accommodating guests or family members.
A separate toilet room is found in the extended section of the cabin, with external access and a low ceiling height. The seller has recently expanded this area by approximately 1.4 square meters, and it now features a toilet, a vanity with an overhead sink, and a wall-mounted panel heater for warmth. A new incineration toilet is included in the sale. However, this area is not approved for permanent habitation.
The property also includes a woodshed, approximately 4 square meters in size, providing ample storage for firewood and outdoor equipment. The exterior of the cabin has been well maintained, with new cladding installed on two sides of the log structure and new windows (except for the kitchen) added in 2021, ensuring durability and energy efficiency.
The location of this cabin is truly exceptional. Set amidst the pristine wilderness of Hardangervidda, you have direct access to some of Norway's best hiking and recreational opportunities, both in summer and winter. The area offers fantastic high mountain terrain and is close to Møsvatn, the largest lake in the county, where you have rights to a boat mooring and fishing. The leasehold agreement includes the right to keep a boat and to fish with rod, lure, and spinner in Møsvatn. Net fishing is available for a small annual fee.
During the winter, approximately 60 kilometers of cross-country ski trails are groomed in the area, catering to both families and more experienced skiers. The region is also known for its excellent alpine skiing facilities, making it a year-round destination for outdoor enthusiasts. In the summer, you can embark on both short and long hikes to destinations such as Bosnuten, Brattefjell, and Vindeggen, or venture further into Hardangervidda, Northern Europe's largest mountain plateau, renowned for its vast open spaces, beautiful scenery, and rich wildlife and plant life.
Access to the cabin is primarily on foot, as there is no registered parking space. The seller currently uses parking at Møsvassdammen for an annual fee. This adds to the authentic mountain cabin experience, offering a sense of seclusion and escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.
This property is ideal for those seeking a simple, genuine, and timeless retreat—a place where you can unwind, create lasting memories, and enjoy the best of Norwegian nature.
