Ahoy there! So, I know you're just itching to get your hands on a slice of idyllic Swedish countryside living, and I've got just the ticket for you. Tucked away on Ålefeskarns väg 6 in the charming little nook of Knarrevik, Lysekils kommun, you've got yourself a real gem—a country home that'll have you living your best life amid some of Sweden's most captivating natural scenery. Perfectly placed, this one-of-a-kind home has its sights set on the beautiful Brofjorden, giving you those stunning sea views we all crave.
Now let's take a stroll through this delightful abode, starting with the main cottage itself. It's a peachy spot if you ask me—well-maintained, with that classic blend of rustic and cozy that makes you want to snuggle up with a cuppa and throw your feet up. You'll find a bright little haven thanks to those big ole windows letting in oodles of natural light, plus there's just one tidy floor to roam about on. Inside, there's a lovely open-plan kitchen and living space where you can rustle up meals while chatting with your family or friends. The dining area beckons for memorable dinners, and a spacious bedroom is perfect for finding your beauty sleep after a day out exploring.
And don't get me started on the extra bits and bobs included! There's a sizeable guest house (about 20 squar meters), which your visitors will adore—complete with its own room and kitchen. Neatly tucked nearby is a wee cabin (10 sq m) with a quirky separett toilet, and an outside shower to boot, recently given a good sprucing up back in 2020. Who doesn’t like a touch of modern convenience beneath the stars?
Let's not forget the plot this comes with—a joyous mix of lush greenery, clean granite rocks, and charming gardens! Can you imagine sitting in your very own old-fashioned orchard, sipping a hot drink while the kids run amok in this natural playground? Bliss! Enough greenery around that you might even fancy yourself a bit of a gardener.
Now, while I'm busier than a one-legged man in a butt-kicking contest, I can assure you this property won't disappoint. You got that lovely Bohuslän granite to hide from any sneak attacks by the wind, and still enough open-air charm to feel one with nature. And if you're wondering about amenities and some details, here they are in plain sight:

Now, for all you foreign folks, let's draw back the curtains on what life here is really about. Knarrevik is a snug little area, part of Lysekils kommun, flooded with natural wonders at every turn. With the great Govik beach just a stroll away, lazy summer afternoons will be all about basking in that sunlight. And if you're feeling peppy, there are endless hiking trails, cozy cafes, small boutiques, and more waiting for some exploration.
Lysekil, only fifteen minutes away, adds the hustle and bustle with shops, restaurants, and a calendar full of events. Imagine wandering its streets, breathing in that fresh coastal air or sunbathing on a nearby clifftop. Beaches, harbors, golf courses, and more offer so much on your doorstep without the humdrum of city life.
The climate is about the mildest you can ask for in Sweden. Warm summer nights to doze off to the rhythm of rustling leaves and a snowy wonderland come winter—the best of both worlds laid out nicely just for you. Despite the calm, Brastad has got grocery stores and local services about five minutes out, and if you ever feel the urge for a big city dash, Gothenburg is only just over an hour on the road.
For those seeking a blend of leisure and nature or simply a retreat from the city's relentless pace, this could very well be where the heart sets down its hat. So why not reach out, and let's get you on the path to this serene country escape!
