Hordvik Chalet: Your Dream Second Home with Fjord Views Near Bergen

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

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

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

This chalet for sale in Jektvik, Nordland, is a 1984 mountain cabin with a 40 m² terrace and valley views, 2 km from the ferry quay. It is a small, plain-spoken cabin: one bedroom, an open living room and kitchen, and an 11 m² outbuilding that holds the toilet and shower. The asking price of around 70,800 EUR covers an 860 m² freehold plot on gently sloping, southwest-facing mountain ground, with the sea a short distance away. If you want a cabin in Nordland to use as a base for walking and fishing rather than a showpiece, this is the scale to look at. ### Inside the Cabin The cabin was built in 1984 and has been maintained regularly since. The standard is typical for a Norwegian leisure cabin: practical, without frills. You enter through a small hall into the combined living room and kitchen, which has high ceilings and exposed roof beams. A wood-burning stove heats the room, and the open kitchen means whoever is cooking stays part of the conversation. There is one bedroom with a wardrobe, plus a storage room for skis, fishing gear and bedding. The main building has 40 m² of living space. With the 11 m² outbuilding, the total usable area comes to about 51 m². ### Terraces, Outbuilding and the 860 m² Plot Most of the living happens outside. A terrace of about 40 m² runs along the front of the cabin, and part of the south side is covered, so you can sit out when the weather turns. There is also a deck at the rear and a platform by the west gable, which is where you will want to be for the evening light. The outbuilding is built in the same style as the cabin and has its own staircase. It holds the toilet room with shower, and it also houses the battery and charging equipment for the solar system. The plot is zoned ... click here to read more

This log cabin for sale in Prestfoss, Buskerud, dates from around 1850 and sits on a freehold 1,160 m² forest plot with an annex and a stabbur. The buildings stand around a open courtyard with woodland on every side, so the first thing you notice is how quiet it is. Pine floors, bare log walls and a wood-burning stove set the tone inside. It needs updating, and it is priced at €69,900 with that in mind. For anyone who wants a cabin in Norway to restore at their own pace rather than a finished showpiece, this is a realistic starting point. ### The Main Cabin: Logs, Pine and a Wood Stove The main cabin is a single open-plan space that combines living room, kitchen and bedroom. Original pine floorboards run underfoot, the walls are exposed logs, and the ceilings are painted wood. The kitchen is basic: a solid wood countertop and a stainless steel sink, nothing more. The wood-burning stove does the heating, which is how most Norwegian cabins of this age have always worked. The bedroom has red-painted timber walls and room for a double bed. Windows on two sides look into the forest, so you wake up to trees rather than neighbours. Electricity has been brought to the outside wall of the cabin, but not further. That leaves you free to plan the wiring, lighting and any modern kitchen or bathroom the way you want them. ### Annex, Stabbur and the 1,160 m² Plot Next to the cabin stands a log annex built in the same style. It has a living room large enough for a sofa corner and a dining table, plus a separate sleeping area with a wooden bed frame and a window onto the trees. At the entrance there is a covered terrace, and the roof is tiled. For a family or a group of friends, the annex means the cabin never feels crowded. It co ... click here to read more

This year-round chalet for sale in Evje sits 530 metres above sea level in Gautestad, with a driveway to the door and views over Høvringsvannet. Norwegians would call it a hytte, and it works like one: a single-level cabin of 62 m² on a sunny plot of 1,369 m², with electricity and water installed and a garage included in the sale. The practical side matters up here. You can park at the front door in January and carry the groceries straight in, and there is an electric car charger on the driveway. For a cabin in Agder at this altitude, that kind of easy access is a real advantage. ### The Chalet: 62 m² on One Level You step into a vestibule, then into a living room that is open to the kitchen. Large windows face the lake and the rolling hills beyond, so the view is part of the room from the moment you walk in. There is no staircase anywhere, which suits grandparents and toddlers equally well. The kitchen has white profiled cabinets, plenty of worktop space, a stove, a fridge and a dishwasher. Whoever is cooking stays in the conversation. Right next to it is a dining area with room for a proper family table. There are three bedrooms and six sleeping places. The main bedroom has stained wood panelling and space for a double bed. The second has a bunk bed for children or guests. The third can take extra beds, or it can serve as a home office or hobby room. The single bathroom has a shower, toilet and sink. For heating, the chalet has both a heat pump and a wood-burning stove. The heat pump keeps the temperature steady between visits, and the stove is what you light on a cold evening. The condition is good, so this is a chalet you can use right away rather than a project. ### Terrace, Garden and Garage A sunny terrace ... click here to read more

This three-bedroom chalet for sale in Trysil sits on a 1,000 m² leased forest plot in Østby, with groomed cross-country trails close to the door. It is a small, practical mountain cabin of 51 m², listed at around €66,400, which puts a Norwegian second home within reach of buyers who expected to pay far more. The neighbours here are mostly spruce and pine. ### The Cabin: 51 m² With Three Bedrooms Step in from the covered entrance terrace and you land in one open room that holds the living area, kitchen and dining table. A wood-burning stove heats it, and large windows look out at the forest. The kitchen has hand-painted cabinets, which give the place a lived-in, personal feel rather than a catalogue look. The dining area is big enough for a full table of family or friends after a day on skis. There are three bedrooms, laid out to maximise sleeping space, with bunk beds among the solutions. That suits a family with children or a group of friends sharing the cost. The bathroom has a washbasin, mirror cabinet and toilet. The condition is described as good and the cabin is well maintained. One point to be clear about: there is no indoor water supply. A water post stands about 30 metres from the cabin, and electricity is installed. Plenty of Norwegian mountain cabins work this way, and many owners like the simple routine. You should still decide whether it suits how you plan to use the place. A small external storage room of about 2 m² takes skis, tools and outdoor gear. ### Outdoors: Ski Trails, Forest and a 1,000 m² Plot The plot is about 1,000 m² and ringed by trees, so the garden feels private. Parking is on the property. The area is easy to reach by car and works well for children. In winter, groomed cross-country ... click here to read more

This chalet for sale in Trøndelag sits by Tomtvatnet near Markabygda, with groomed ski trails a few metres from the door and southwest lake views. It is a small cabin of 47 m² on a leased plot of 90 m², and that is much of the appeal: everything is close at hand, easy to heat and easy to look after. Built in 1987 and kept in good condition, it has two bedrooms, a wood-burning stove and a heat pump. For anyone searching for a cabin for sale in Norway at an accessible price, this is a practical way into the Norwegian outdoor life, and the furnishings present at viewing are included. ### Inside the Cabin The kitchen is compact and fitted with a stove and refrigerator. The living room has light walls and ceilings, which counts for a lot when winter daylight is short. The living area opens straight into the kitchen, and a dining nook gives you a table with the landscape in view. Heat comes from the wood-burning stove, backed up by a heat pump, so the cabin is not just a July-and-August place. There are two bedrooms. One holds a family bunk bed with three sleeping places, the other a double bed, so five people can sleep here. That suits a family with children, or two couples who don't mind close quarters. The bathroom is small, with a vanity unit and an incineration toilet. A little loft is useful for storage. Outside there is a storage shed, and it may need some attention, so plan on a weekend of repairs once you own it. ### Terrace, Garden and Leased Plot The terrace measures about 4 m², enough for a small table and a morning coffee. The cabin faces southwest towards Tomtvatnet, so you look over the lake to the hills beyond, and the evening sun reaches you here. The garden is natural and follows the terrain, with no la ... click here to read more

This chalet for sale in Bruvik, on Osterøy near Bergen, comes with year-round road access and a sunny terrace on a 1,013 m² leased plot. It is a compact two-bedroom cabin from 1980, kept in good condition, in the quiet valley of Bruvikdalen. The road runs right up to the door, which matters more than it sounds in a Norwegian winter. ### The Chalet: 56 m² with High Ceilings and a Loft The total area is 56 m², made up of 51 m² inside and a 5 m² outside storage room. The living room has high ceilings and large windows, so the kitchen and sitting area fill with daylight even on a grey Vestland morning. A fireplace in the living room is the main source of atmosphere when the evenings turn cold, and it is why the cabin works outside the summer season too. The kitchen has modern appliances, plenty of counter space and room for a dining table. It opens onto the living area, so whoever cooks stays part of the conversation. There are two bedrooms with wooden floors and panelled walls. A staircase leads up to a loft (hems), which gives you extra beds for children or guests, or simply a place to keep things out of the way. The bathroom is bright and modern, with a shower cabin. The cabin has running water and electricity, so it is a proper home for a weekend rather than a camping exercise. ### Terrace, Garden and a 1,013 m² Plot A large terrace wraps around much of the building. That means you can follow the sun: coffee on one side in the morning, dinner on another in the evening. The listing describes excellent sunlight through the year, helped by the cabin's elevation of roughly 273 metres above sea level. Views run across the surrounding mountains and forest. The garden is big enough for children to play and for you to sta ... click here to read more

This chalet for sale in Nesna, Nordland stands on a 1,190 m² riverside plot with electricity installed and an interior you can finish yourself. Built in 1992, the house has 58 m² of living space and one bedroom. The asking price is 26,500 EUR, which makes it a low-cost way into Norway real estate on the Helgeland coast. It is a project, though. The interior is not fully finished and there is no water or sewage yet, so it suits a buyer who likes to build, not just unpack. ### The Cabin: 58 m² Ready to Be Finished The entrance opens straight into a single open-plan living area, with space by the door for coats, boots and gear. You will need it here. The kitchen is open to the living room and already has cabinets and worktop space. A window above the sink looks out at the forest, so washing up comes with a view of the trees. Large windows in the living room face the open landscape and let in plenty of light. According to the approved plans, the cabin has one bedroom, with wood panelling on the walls and ceiling. The main living areas carry the same panelling. Heating comes from a Mitsubishi air-to-air heat pump installed in 2016. What is left to do is the interior surfaces and details. You can finish them to your own taste, but within the existing approvals and building plans. Ask the seller exactly what those cover before you draw anything up. Electricity is in place. Water and sewage are not, so you would choose your own solution. Check local requirements and costs first, because that decision shapes how you can use the place. ### The Plot by the River: 1,190 m² of Owned Land The plot is owned and surrounded by forest and open countryside. The cabin is shielded from neighbouring properties, so the main sound you he ... click here to read more

This chalet for sale in Troms sits 60 metres from Storvatnet in Sørvik, with lake and mountain views and a year-round road right to the door. Built in 1995 and in good condition, it is a one-bedroom cabin with a sleeping loft, a wood-burning stove and a veranda that wraps around the house. The plot is 995 m² and freehold, and the outlook across the water is not interrupted by other cabins. For anyone shopping for a holiday home in northern Norway, that combination of privacy and easy access is not common at this price. ### The Chalet: Layout, Kitchen and Loft The living area is 77 m². Inside, the living room, dining area and kitchen share one open-plan space under a sloped ceiling, with large windows that pull in the light off the lake. The wood-burning stove is the centre of the room, and the living room opens straight onto the veranda, so the doors can stay open on a warm evening. The kitchen was renovated in 2016/17. It has an oven, a refrigerator, plenty of storage and generous worktop space, and the surfaces throughout the house were refreshed at the same time. You can move in and use it as it stands. There is one proper bedroom, plus a loft (hems) of 23.5 m² reached by a ladder from the hallway. The loft can take several beds, which makes it the obvious place for children or visiting friends. The bathroom has a shower, a sink and a Cinderella incineration toilet. A roomy entrance hall handles boots and outerwear, and a utility room gives you extra storage. ### Outside: Veranda, Garden and Storvatnet The veranda runs around the house, so there are several seating spots depending on where the sun is. Handmade benches stand on the grounds, and a large storage shed holds firewood, tools and sports equipment. Cof ... click here to read more

This cabin for sale in Østfold comes with an owned 200 m² forest plot and an 18 m² southwest veranda, at about €35,400. It stands in an established cabin area among pine trees, and the price is set for a buyer who wants to do the work. Two bedrooms, an open fireplace and a kitchen with a wood-burning stove are already in place. ### A 1964 Cabin: Renovate or Rebuild The cabin dates from 1964 and has the plain, older standard you would expect from that year. It has a timber frame, horizontal wooden cladding, and a masonry foundation with a ventilated crawl space. The gable roof is covered in shingle with metal flashing along the edges. You reach the front door by an outside wooden staircase with a handrail, then step into a windbreak that works as an entrance hall. Inside, the living room keeps its original pine floor, wood-panelled walls and ceiling, and a traditional open masonry fireplace. The kitchen has a wood-burning stove and leads straight into one of the two bedrooms. Both bedrooms have the original wooden floors and panelling, with enough room for bunk beds. The living area is 45 m², or 54 m² of usable space in total. Be realistic about the scope. The seller describes the place as needing total renovation, and demolition with new construction is also an option, subject to the usual building permits. A second home in Norway at this price is rare, but the budget has to cover the work too. ### The Plot, the Veranda and the Outbuildings The 200 m² plot is owned, not leased, and it is wooded with mature pines and native undergrowth. The trees give shade and a good deal of privacy, and no neighbours look directly onto the cabin. The 18 m² wooden veranda runs along the facade and faces southwest, so it catches th ... click here to read more

This chalet for sale in Dokka, Innlandet, is a 1968 cabin with a guest annex, 28 m² terrace and a 637 m² freehold plot set back from the road. At 39,800 euros it is a small, honest Norwegian cabin: 33 m² indoors, two bedrooms split between a main cabin and a separate annex, and a garden with room for children to run around. You leave the car by the road, walk about 50 metres along a footpath, and the noise of everything else drops away. ### The Cabin, the Annex and the Outbuildings The compound is made up of several small buildings rather than one big one, and that is what makes it flexible. The main cabin starts with a proper Norwegian entrance hall (a vindfang) where boots and wet jackets can stay out of the living space. Beyond it you find a kitchen, a living room with a fireplace and a bedroom. Large windows in the living room bring in daylight and look out over the surrounding landscape. A few steps away stands the annex, which has its own combined kitchen and living area and a separate bedroom. Guests or extended family can have their own space, and nobody has to queue for the one kettle. Two outbuildings and an outdoor toilet complete the set. The outbuildings are useful for firewood, tools, bikes and fishing gear, and some owners might turn one into a workshop or hobby room. The cabin was built in 1968 and is listed in good condition. The indoor area is 33 m² (BRA-i), with a further 40 m² of external usable area (BRA-e), making 73 m² of built area in total. ### Terrace, Garden and a 637 m² Freehold Plot Most of the living here happens outdoors. The terrace measures 28 m², big enough for a long dinner table and a few deck chairs, and it is where morning coffee tastes best on a clear day. Around it, the 637 m ... click here to read more

This cabin for sale in Trøndelag sits at Nord-Statland, close to the shoreline, with a sea view and 103 m² of terraces and balconies. Built in 1999 and in good condition, it is a two-bedroom retreat on a 941 m² plot, with an 11 m² annex and a share in a communal lot where a boathouse can be built. It suits anyone shopping for a holiday home in Trøndelag that works for long summer weekends and for colder months too. Electricity, running water, road access and a fireplace are already in place, so there is very little between you and the first evening on the terrace. ### Inside the 65 m² Cabin The living area is 65 m² and the plan is straightforward. You come in through the hallway and step into the living room, where large windows face the landscape and the sea and a fireplace takes the edge off cooler evenings. The kitchen has the essential appliances and enough room to cook and eat without tripping over each other. Two bedrooms, one bathroom and a storage room complete the layout. Nothing here is a project. The cabin has been well maintained since 1999, with solid construction and quality materials inside and out. That matters for a second home in Norway, because your budget can go to furnishings and boat gear rather than builders. The storage room is a small detail that you will appreciate once the fishing rods, bedding and spare bits start to pile up. ### Terraces, Annex and 941 m² of Land The outdoor space is the real headline. Terraces and balconies add up to 103 m², which is considerably more than the interior. That is room for a long dining table, a barbecue and a couple of loungers, with space left over. Morning coffee facing the water and late dinners in the long northern light are what this layout is built ... click here to read more

This chalet for sale in Espedalen, Innlandet, is a 3-bedroom mountain cabin with a fireplace and wood stove, 300 metres from groomed ski trails. Built in 1999 in a classic Norwegian style, it sits on a 1,361 m² freehold plot of heather and low shrubs, with a driveway running right up to the door. It is a small, practical cabin of 65 m² in good condition. It is the kind of place where you drop your bags, light the stove, and plan tomorrow's ski route over dinner. For anyone looking at a mountain cabin in Norway without a large budget, it is worth a closer look. ### The Cabin and Its 1,361 m² Plot The exterior is vertical timber siding under an asphalt shingle roof, a combination that copes well with mountain weather. Inside, wooden paneling and solid wood floors run through the whole cabin, so it feels like a traditional hytte rather than a converted house. The living room and kitchen share one open space. Large windows on three sides bring in light and look out over the surrounding mountain terrain. A masonry chimney serves both a fireplace and a wood stove, which is the first thing you will want to use on a cold evening. The kitchen sits right next to the living room, so whoever is cooking stays close to the fire and the conversation. There are three bedrooms with light, paneled walls and ceilings and solid wood flooring. One has a built-in wardrobe and a family bunk bed. Together the rooms sleep up to six people, which suits a family with children or two couples. A 25 m² covered terrace opens off the living area. It stays usable when the weather turns, which in the mountains happens often. A detached 17 m² outbuilding gives you dry storage for firewood, skis, bikes and garden equipment. One practical point: the ... click here to read more

Stand on the terrace at Bjønndalsåsen 46 on a clear October morning, coffee in hand, and the whole of Drammensfjorden stretches out below you — silver-grey water, pine-covered ridges on the far bank, the occasional ferry cutting a white line across the surface. This is the view that greets you every single day from this hillside chalet in Spikkestad, a property locally known by its old name, Kvilestova — which loosely translates to "the resting place." Fitting doesn't even begin to cover it. Spikkestad sits in Røyken municipality, tucked between Asker and Drammen in a way that feels genuinely removed from both, even though neither is far. The train station is seven minutes by car, which puts Oslo S roughly forty minutes from your front door on the L14 line — close enough for a day trip into the city, far enough that you never feel the city's pull on a lazy Sunday. This particular corner of the hillside, the Ovnerudåsen area, is quiet in the way that only lightly settled Norwegian countryside can be: a handful of holiday cabins, a few year-round residents, and a lot of trees. The property is built on two separate parcels totalling just over 3,200 square metres of natural plot — not manicured garden, but actual Norwegian terrain with rock outcrops, mature birch and pine, and the kind of ground that smells of damp earth and forest after rain. The main cabin dates from 1964 and covers 83 square metres in total, with 61 square metres of internal living space and another 22 square metres of practical external area. A second, smaller cabin sits on the plot as well, giving you options: overflow accommodation for guests, a separate creative studio, or simply storage and workshop space while you plan a longer renovation. Inside ... click here to read more

Step outside on a February morning at Søre Blevegen 892 and the world is dead quiet except for the crunch of fresh snow underfoot and the faint hiss of wind threading through the birch trees. The groomed ski trail is literally a hundred meters from the front door. You could be out on Blefjell's tracks with coffee still warm in your stomach before most people have found their ski boots. That kind of immediacy — that closeness to the mountain — is what makes this place genuinely different from the hundreds of Norwegian cabins that claim to be "near" the slopes. This is a real, traditional hytte. Pine floors worn smooth in the right places. Ceiling beams you actually notice. A brick chimney that anchors the main room with a wood-burning stove on one side and an open fireplace on the other — which means on a January evening, the cabin is throwing heat from two directions while you peel off your ski layers and figure out what to cook. The walls are timber-paneled in that specifically Norwegian way that somehow manages to feel both rustic and completely comfortable. It's not a renovation project. It's a working cabin in good condition, ready to use from the first weekend. The open-plan kitchen and living area is the heart of the place. The kitchen has custom-built cabinets and a newer countertop, practical without being fussy. The layout means whoever's cooking doesn't miss out on the conversation happening around the fire — a small thing that makes a real difference when you're up here with family or a group of friends after a long day on the trails. Both bedrooms carry the same honest aesthetic: pine floors, paneled walls, built-in shelving. Nothing pretentious. Just two rooms that do the job well and feel warm when the te ... click here to read more

Picture this: a Saturday morning in January, snow sitting heavy on the pine branches just outside the kitchen window, the wood stove already crackling from the night before, and the smell of coffee drifting through a cabin that actually feels like yours. That's Togstadvegen 928 in Skogbygda. Not a hotel. Not a rental. A place where you drop your bags, exhale, and stop checking the time. Skogbygda sits in Nes municipality, Viken county, tucked into a landscape that Norwegians have been quietly escaping to for generations. The name itself — "forest village" — tells you what you're getting. Rolling terrain, dense spruce forest, clean air, and the kind of stillness that's genuinely hard to find anywhere within an hour of a capital city. And Oslo is exactly that: under an hour by car, roughly 60 kilometres south via the E6. Jessheim, the closest proper town with a full range of shops, restaurants, and a railway station, is about 33 minutes by car. A bus stop is a six-minute walk from the front door. For a cabin in the Norwegian countryside, this is an unusually well-connected address. The chalet itself was built in 1960 and sits on a freehold plot of 746 square metres — generous enough for serious outdoor living. The interior spans 56 square metres of living space with a total usable area, including the enclosed winter garden, reaching 116 square metres. In good condition throughout, the property has been updated thoughtfully rather than stripped of its character. The kitchen was renovated in 2018 and fitted with solid wood countertops and proper cabinetry that actually has room to cook in — a detail that matters when you're preparing a big Sunday meal after a morning on the trails. The bathroom followed in 2023 with a full ... click here to read more

The cabin is just 30 minutes away from the lively Bergen city center and only 15 minutes from the bustling town of Knarvik.

The layout has been designed with community and family in mind, making it a preferred choice for those who love hosting friends or family.

Nestled within a sheltered harbor, it's the perfect setting for those who dream of the tranquility of the sea and the vibrant community that comes with it.

Alright, so I’m juggling several viewings today but wanted to get this out to you as quick as possible. I’m an agent for a global agency and I’ve sold homes both locally and abroad, so I understand what international buyers are looking for, especially those searching for a second home or a peaceful retreat. Here’s one property in Norway’s Hylkje that truly fits the bill for someone craving authentic country living by the sea, and it’s not too far from Bergen either. Let’s start with the property itself – it’s a proper country home, but not your usual move-in ready home, I’m going to be straight up. The cabin was built in 1942, so as you’d expect, it’s got a lot of character from another era, but it does need some renovations. It’s a fixer-upper for sure, but if you’re looking for potential and want to put your own stamp on things, this is one to look at. The size isn’t huge inside, about 27m² living area, but that’s absolutely typical for Norwegian cabins of this age. There’s more usable space outside though, with a total of 94m² including outbuildings and storage, which is really quite practical for boats, tools, gear, and just general country living. What really makes this property special if you ask me, is the land and the location. You’ve got about 5,131 square meters – that’s over an acre – and about 28 meters of private shoreline. Private shoreline is really rare these days, and this bit leads straight down to your own boathouse and dock. The boathouse is a tad rustic but does the job and could be fixed up with a bit of effort. The dock means you can have a boat right outside your door, and for anyone who loves fishing, boating, or even just swimming, this is a huge plus. Let me pause on the area for a minute.

The wood stove is already crackling when you step inside, the smell of pine drifting through an open window, and somewhere through the trees you can just catch the shimmer of the Hanevik shoreline. That's the kind of Saturday morning this cabin at Hanevikvegen 115 was built for. Sitting on a gentle hill above Ask in Askøy municipality — a 30-minute drive west of Bergen across the Askøy Bridge — this 42-square-metre retreat is the kind of place that doesn't announce itself. You park, walk a short path through the forest, and suddenly you're standing on a sun-drenched plot with no neighbors in your sightline and birch canopy overhead. The elevated position is key. The sun tracks across the site from morning through to the long Norwegian summer evenings, and when it finally goes down, the glow over the Hjeltefjord is genuinely something you'll want to sit and watch with a coffee going cold in your hand. The cabin itself is compact but well-considered. Originally constructed in 1946 and laid out as four smaller rooms, the current owner opened things up into a single flowing living space with direct access to the outdoor terrace — the right call. Large windows pull that forest light inside, and the stainless steel kitchen bench catches it in a way that makes the whole interior feel bigger than the footprint suggests. The wood-burning stove anchors the room, not just practically but atmospherically. On a grey October afternoon when the rain is coming in off the Vestland coast, it earns its place. The separate toilet room runs a composting biological system — standard and practical for Norwegian leisure properties of this type — and there's a dedicated storage room for boots, fishing gear, kayak paddles, and whatever else ac ... click here to read more
