Description
Welcome to a rare opportunity that combines history, beauty, and modern potential all in one timeless farmhouse located on the stunning south coast of Sweden, in the charming city of Ystad. With its roots entwined with the early 1900s, this property known as Högasten at Snårestad Lyckeväg 29-39 is a historic gem that’s ready for its next chapter. Immerse yourself in the traditional Swedish lifestyle right where the land kisses the Baltic Sea, surrounded by sandy beaches and rugged rocky shores.
Ah, where do I start? I'm always running from one showing to the next, but let me pause for a moment to paint you a picture of this truly enchanting locale. Living here isn't just about owning a beautiful farmhouse (though that’s quite a perk!). It's also about imbibing the soul of southern Sweden – where cozy, small-town charms meet exceptional natural beauty. The climate is rather temperate, offering delightful summers perfect for beachside picnics and crisp winters that provide a gentle snowfall—a perfect backdrop for this cozy farmhouse.
Högasten itself is located right along a varied coastline, granting you a kilometer-long shoreline filled with opportunities for beach strolls, ocean dips, or simply lounging with a good book against the backdrop of the deep blue Baltic Sea. Envision starting your mornings with the symphony of waves crashing against the shore—your own strip of sandy paradise. As you traverse the lime tree avenues leading you onto the land, a rich sense of history envelops you like a warm embrace.
The farmhouse itself has a story to tell. Built in 1914 as a retirement haven for manager Jeppesen, this manor house possesses a stately charm. Its heart, the main hall, invites you into a world of elegant sophistication. The high ceilings and enduring stone floor radiate a classic robustness that’s both comforting and captivating.

It's not all about the house, however. Out to the courtyard stands three wings: a stable, small pigsty, and a notable barn wing that now serves both fun and functional purposes. Imagine hosting parties in a fully furnished party room with direct access to the garden.
And let's not forget the park garden! Laid out over decades and lovingly named Versailles, it's an oasis of foliage and structured gardens. The large gazebo, a homage to Copenhagen's Kongens Have, offers symmetry and serenity alike. Plus, there’s an orchard burgeoning with cherries, plums, and rhubarb—nature’s bounty at your doorstep.
Northward, forest and hunting opportunities await. You’ve got 7 hectares of lush oak and beech forests, rejuvenated in '98, that encapsulate a serene pond. It's here that you can partake in one of Sweden's beloved pastimes—hunting, or simply savor the quiet in nature’s natural sanctuary.
Now, I must tell you, Högasten isn’t just a residence, it’s a canvas. It’s in good condition now, but there’s room for your personal touch. Whether you fancy giving the interiors a modern facelift or preserving its classical elegance, the home offers limitless potential to evolve into your dream sanctuary.
For families, this place offers an idyllic lifestyle. Imagine your children running in open fields, exploring the coastlines, or you strolling down to the fish market down at Ystad. With the arrival of spring, the surrounding area bursts into life with outdoor activities—whether it’s cycling along the coastline, engaging with local history at Ystad’s museums, or enjoying a leisurely afternoon in one of the town’s quaint cafés.
Ystad's charm extends to every corner, from its well-preserved medieval buildings to pebbled streets whispering stories of yore. The city combines the best of both worlds: a peaceful, historic seaside town with accessibility to city amenities. You’re only about 30 to 60 minutes away from bustling hubs like Malmö and Lund, making daily commutes or occasional city escapades truly effortless.
This isn’t merely a property—it’s a legacy. Your piece of the Swedish countryside awaits, filled with history, promising sweet new beginnings on fertile farming land. Don’t let this chance pass by to own a slice of Swedish history, where life’s simple pleasures are celebrated daily. As a real estate agent always on the move, I might be busy, but I’m here to help pave the way to your dream farmhouse in reflective and picturesque Ystad.
