Description
Nestled in the tranquil island of Björkö, located in Norrtälje kommun, Sweden, awaits a unique country home that captures the essence of serene island living. Here, at Simpnäs Hamnväg 10, this winterized cottage presents a rare find. This house, standing strong since 1909, offers a warm slice of Swedish heritage combined with the conveniences of modern living, all sprawled across 80 square meters. And for those yearning for a charming countryside escape, this property could be just the ticket.
With three comfy bedrooms and one bathroom, the house unfolds across two floors. As you step into the inviting hallway—a later addition that seamlessly blends with the home's vintage allure—you immediately feel the welcoming vibes. Start your journey on the spacious ground floor, where a large kitchen fitted with a classic wood stove demands your culinary explorations. It's perfect for those who enjoy cooking with a nostalgic touch. Next to the kitchen lies a cozy nook, which could serve as a peaceful guest room or a productive home office. Keeping with the relaxing theme, the generously-sized living room awaits, flowing effortlessly into a sunroom through elegant double doors, making for a perfect indoor-outdoor living space.
Upstairs, you'll find two more bedrooms, each offering plenty of storage space with attic closets and built-in storage areas. Ideal for a family seeking a permanent residence or just a holiday retreat, this home suits different desires. Though the shower room is functional, some modern updates could enhance this area, adding a personal flair to your countryside haven.
For those with a green thumb or a love for the outdoors, the home sits on a sprawling 3,957 square meters plot, granting ample space for a flourishing garden or family fun under the Swedish sun. Outside, the sizable barn stands ready to support your storage needs or transform into a gathering spot for family celebrations or creative endeavors. And don’t overlook the unique earth cellar—an ideal place for storing homemade preserves or wine, adding a lovely rustic touch.
Living on Björkö means proximity to nature and the sea. The property is a short drive or invigorating bike ride from Simpnäs harbor, where you’ll find a quaint cafe, boat tours to Arholma, and further adventure towards Fejan with its renowned restaurant. You’ll be immersed in a landscape dotted with rocky beaches, sandy coves, and breathtaking sea views stretching across Åland Sea. The picturesque harbor also features a popular restaurant and scenic walking paths—a perfect setting for those who crave a peaceful wander or a satisfying meal against the backdrop of stunning vistas.
As one of Sweden's larger islands, Björkö is part of Väddö, thanks to the Uppland land uplift. This affords a good road network, easy access, and bus services connecting you to the broader region. Essential amenities are close by, with a small ICA store in reach, and larger services in Älmsta, mere 25 minutes away, offering a larger ICA store, a pharmacy, and several dining options.
Exploring your new island home also means passing by Barnens ö, home to a beloved children’s camp complete with farm animals like cows and horses—a delightful sight for families and visitors alike.
In summary, Simpnäs Hamnväg 10 delivers more than just a house; it offers an entire lifestyle filled with history, relaxation, and endless possibilities. Whether you’re seeking a tranquil permanent residence or a refreshing seasonal escape, this property is ready to welcome you. Book a viewing now and step into a world where the rhythms of island life pass gently by, leaving you refreshed and inspired by the natural beauty of your surroundings. Come see and feel the opportunity for yourself—it’s an experience you won’t want to miss in this beautiful slice of Swedish countryside splendor.
