Early Saturday morning in Ljungbyhed, the air carries something you can't quite name — pine resin, damp earth, maybe the faint sweetness of wildflowers along the stream that cuts through the back of the plot. The wood-burning stove is still warm from the night before. You pull on a jacket and step outside onto 1,400 square metres of your own ground, and for a moment, Sweden feels like the best decision you've ever made. This three-bedroom house at Prästmöllan 1032 sits in the quiet countryside of Klippans kommun in northern Skåne, one of Sweden's most quietly compelling regions. It's not a showpiece — it's better than that. It's a genuinely liveable, recently updated home with a big plot, mature surroundings, and one of Sweden's finest national parks less than ten minutes away by car. At 65,500 EUR, it's one of the more honestly priced second home opportunities in Scandinavia right now. The house itself covers 70 square metres of main living space plus an additional 10 square metres of secondary area — compact but well-organised, the kind of layout that encourages you to actually be outside rather than rattling around indoors. Five rooms means you have real flexibility: three bedrooms, a sitting room anchored by a wood-burning stove that's been inspected and approved, and space left over for however you like to work or unwind. The bathroom was fully renovated in 2022, with clean modern fittings that feel considered rather than just functional. The roof was replaced with new felt in 2024. An air-to-air heat pump, also installed in 2024, handles both heating in winter and cooling in summer. Municipal water and sewage connections were completed in 2022. These aren't cosmetic updates — they're the expensive, structural thi ... click here to read more

Step outside on a January morning and the ice on Storsjön stretches further than you can see, perfectly groomed, with the faint scrape of skate blades drifting up from the plowed track that runs just 100 meters from your front door. In summer, that same shoreline smells of warm pine resin and lake water, and your private boat is already tied up at the berth, ready to go. This is Ångersnäsvägen 30 in Årsunda — a 2020-built year-round house in Sandvikens kommun that genuinely earns the word "practical" without ever feeling dull. Built four years ago to current Swedish energy standards, the 74-square-meter main house is single-level, which matters more than people expect. No stairs to navigate after a long ski day, no awkward layout to work around when you're hosting family for midsummer. The open-plan kitchen, dining, and living space flows naturally, and the large windows pull in so much Nordic light during summer that the interior almost glows. On a grey November afternoon, that same layout means a single source of warmth fills the whole space quickly and evenly — a small but real advantage in this climate. The kitchen is fully fitted with modern appliances and enough counter space to actually cook in, not just reheat things. The dining area handles a proper table for six without crowding anyone. Two bedrooms, proportioned sensibly — one for a double bed with room to spare, one flexible enough to swap between guest room, kids' room, or a quiet place to work when the rest of the house is busy. The bathroom has been finished with clean, contemporary fixtures and practical storage. Nothing over-engineered, just a house that works. What makes this property a genuinely interesting purchase is the guest cottage sitting sepa ... click here to read more

Step outside on a July morning in Hallstavik and the air smells like warm pine resin and wet grass. The forest starts just beyond the wooden fence. Coffee in hand, you sit on the deck and watch a thrush work its way through the raised beds. This is not a fantasy—this is a Tuesday. Sandgropsvägen 26 is a red-painted Swedish cottage from 1887 sitting on a 1,860-square-metre plot that has been shaped, planted, and cared for over many years into something genuinely worth seeing. The garden alone would justify the visit. Gravel paths thread between fruit trees, mature perennials, and raised planting beds that produce through late spring all the way into October. There's a small greenhouse where you can start seedlings in March while snow is still piled against the fence outside. A guest cottage sits separately on the plot—useful whether you have friends coming for midsommar or you need a quiet room away from everything to read, paint, or work. Inside the main house, the kitchen sets the tone immediately. Open shelving, beadboard paneling, natural light coming through small windows at an angle that makes the whole room feel like it belongs to a different century—in the best way. Nothing is showy. The materials are honest and the proportions are right. You can cook a proper meal here: Swedish classics like raggmunk with lingonberries or a slow-simmered fish soup made from whatever the local fishermen brought into Grisslehamn that morning. The living room next to it is quiet and warm, the kind of room where you sit down intending to read for twenty minutes and look up two hours later. Soft colors, natural textures, windows facing the garden. Upstairs is more compact but well thought out. A newer bathroom handles the practical ... click here to read more

Step outside on a July morning and walk 300 meters through the trees in your bathrobe. That's how close Lake Kolmaren is. The water is clear, the dock is quiet, and you're back at the kitchen table with coffee before anyone else in the house has stirred. This is the kind of thing that happens when you own a place on Boängsvägen in Spillersboda — and it happens every single day you're here. The house sits at the end of a cul-de-sac in the Frötuna-Spillersboda area of Norrtälje municipality, roughly an hour north of Stockholm by car or SL bus. It borders a public green area on one side, which means no future neighbor crowding in. The plot runs to 2,262 square meters — a generous spread by any measure — and it moves through the property in layers: a southwest-facing terrace catching afternoon sun, flat grass wide enough for a proper game of kubb or badminton, then rocky outcrops that push up through the ground and form natural sheltered spots where you can sit with a book without anyone finding you. The apple trees are old and reliable. Currant bushes produce more than any one family can eat. In August, you'll find wild blueberries and lingonberries along the forest edge without walking more than a few minutes. Come September, the same forest throws up kantareller — chanterelles — in quantities that make you wish you'd brought a bigger basket. Lilacs bloom hard in May and fill the downstairs rooms with scent when you leave the windows open. Inside, the house is 64 square meters across three bedrooms, which is compact but genuinely well-used. The living room has a soapstone wood-burning stove — not a decorative one, a real working heat source that makes late-October weekends here entirely viable. Large windows look out ov ... click here to read more

Step out onto the deck at Söderstig 3 on a July morning and the Gulf of Bothnia is barely a two-minute walk away. The air carries that particular mix of pine resin and salt water that you only get along this stretch of the Gävleborg coast. The soapstone stove inside still holds a little warmth from the evening before. This is what owning a holiday home in Axmar actually feels like — unhurried, deeply restorative, and about as far from city noise as you need it to be. Axmar sits on the Hälsingland coastline, roughly 40 kilometres north of Gävle and about a 2.5-hour drive from Stockholm. It is not the kind of place that shows up on tourist maps, and the people who live here — both year-round and seasonally — tend to like it that way. The village has developed quietly around its harbour, its community association, and the kind of neighbourly traditions that are increasingly rare. Midsommar here is the real thing: a maypole goes up near the marina, someone brings out a speaker, and the long Nordic evening stretches past midnight with no one particularly in a hurry to go anywhere. The house itself sits on a 1,520-square-metre plot on Söderstig, a quiet residential road lined with similar summer properties and year-round homes. The building has been methodically updated over recent years — new roof, new windows, a new front door and patio door, and an air-source heat pump that keeps running costs manageable in the colder months. None of these are flashy improvements, but they are exactly the kind that matter: the ones that mean you arrive in May and everything just works. Inside, the ground floor runs as an open plan from kitchen to living room, which gives the 75-square-metre main house a sense of space that the floor area ... click here to read more

Stand on the south-facing terrace at Törnbotten 113 on a late June morning and you'll understand immediately why Öland has been pulling people across the Kalmar Strait for centuries. The meadows ahead of you stretch all the way to the treeline of Mittlandsskogen, Sweden's largest contiguous deciduous forest. Swallows cut low over the grass. The only sound is wind moving through the stone wall that borders your plot. It's 7am and you're already outside, coffee in hand, with nowhere to be. This is a genuinely rare find. An architect-designed, newly built home on a Swedish island that gets more sunshine hours than almost anywhere else in the country — and it's priced as a vacation home purchase, not a mainland city premium. The house at Törnbotten 113 sits in Färjestaden on the island of Öland, connected to the mainland city of Kalmar by the 6km Öland Bridge — one of the longest bridges in Europe and, frankly, one of the more satisfying drives you'll ever make, with the Baltic spreading out on both sides. The architect behind this home is M. Rutensköld, winner of both the Red Dot Award and the Swedish Design Award. That pedigree shows in every decision made here, from the passage between the two building volumes — a direct nod to the traditional rad byar, the row villages that define Öland's historic landscape — to the vitriol-treated wood facade that will weather gradually to a soft silver-grey, the way old Öland barns do. This isn't a house trying to look Scandinavian. It actually is. Inside, the ceilings climb to five metres at their peak. Natural light doesn't just enter the house — it moves through it, shifting from the south-facing living areas in the morning to the north and east-facing loft windows by afternoon. ... click here to read more

Step outside on a July morning, coffee in hand, and the air already smells like warm pine and cut grass. The Enviken community pool is a five-minute walk away, someone is dragging a kayak toward Vaxtunasjön down the road, and the Baltic is close enough that you can be on the water before the day heats up properly. This is Galoppbacken 4 — a solid, move-in ready holiday home in Bergshamra that gives you all of that, plus a 1,425-square-metre garden, a guest cottage, and a hot tub on the patio for when the sun finally goes down. Bergshamra sits in the heart of Norrtälje municipality, the great coastal retreat for Stockholmers who want archipelago access without giving up convenience. That matters for buyers thinking about rental income or resale: demand for holiday homes within 90 minutes of Stockholm has stayed remarkably firm, and this corner of Roslagen — the name locals use for the string of coastal parishes north of the capital — is especially popular because it combines genuine waterfront access with year-round infrastructure. The SL bus to Norrtälje town runs from a stop you can walk to in minutes, and from Norrtälje it's a direct ride into Stockholm. Practical, and that's the point. The house itself was built in 1978 and covers 58 square metres — compact, but thought through. The living room anchors the ground floor, and in winter the fireplace does exactly what a fireplace should do: it makes you want to stay inside with a book. There's also an air-source heat pump installed, so heating costs are reasonable even through January and February when Norrtälje can drop well below zero for weeks at a stretch. A covered terrace opens directly off the living room, and that covered part is key — Swedish summers are brill ... click here to read more

The wood-burning stove is already crackling when you wake up on a Saturday morning in October, and through the big living room windows you can see frost on the grass and mist sitting low over the pines. By 9am you're pulling on boots and walking the 550 metres down to the dock at Korgil, thermos in hand, watching a grey heron stand absolutely still at the water's edge. This is what a second home in the Swedish archipelago actually feels like — unhurried, raw, and genuinely restorative in a way that a week in a hotel never manages to be. Mörtvägen 2 sits on a generous 2,353 square metre plot in Korgil, a quiet pocket of Norrtälje municipality roughly 90 kilometres north of Stockholm. Herräng itself is the kind of place most Swedes know mainly because of the Herräng Dance Camp — a legendary annual swing dance festival that transforms this sleepy coastal village every July into something quietly electric. The rest of the year, it belongs to the locals, the summer regulars, and anyone sharp enough to have bought a place here before word got out. The house dates from 1967 and measures 54 square metres — compact, yes, but the layout earns every centimetre. Two bedrooms. A living room anchored by that wood-burning stove. A kitchen big enough to actually cook in, not just heat things up. Large windows pull the garden and the treeline inside, and the open connection between kitchen, dining area, and living room means a household of four or five people can move around each other without friction. On summer evenings the whole ground floor flows out onto the wide wooden deck, where there's room for a proper outdoor table, a gas grill, and still space left over to stretch out on a sun lounger and do absolutely nothing. The guest h ... click here to read more

On a quiet Tuesday morning in late June, you crack open the kitchen window at Gårdsvägen 2 and catch the faint salt smell rolling in off the Kattegat. The robotic mower is already doing its rounds across the grass. You've got nowhere to be until you feel like it. That's the whole point. Skummeslövsstrand sits on the Halland coast of southwestern Sweden, roughly halfway between Halmstad and Båstad — two towns that between them cover every practical need you'll ever have, from IKEA runs to Michelin-starred dinners. But the strand itself is a different pace entirely. A tight-knit summer community that swells with Swedish families every July, then exhales into a quieter, genuinely peaceful neighbourhood the rest of the year. The kind of place where you recognise faces at the local pizzeria on Strandvägen before the end of your first week. The house on Gårdsvägen dates to 1957 and carries just enough of that era — the compact, considered proportions of post-war Swedish construction — without feeling dated. It's been properly updated: new bathroom, fresh interior surfaces throughout, and a modern heat pump installed that handles both heating and cooling efficiently. This isn't a project property. You can arrive with luggage and start living. The winterisation work done here means the house holds warmth through a February coastal storm without fuss, which matters if you're thinking about long weekends in the off-season or using it as a genuine second home across all four seasons. Sixty square metres sounds modest on paper, and it is — but the layout earns every centimetre. The living area and kitchen work as a single open space, and the two bedrooms sit quietly toward the back. Large windows pull in the Swedish summer light ... click here to read more

Picture a Saturday morning in late June. The Swedish sun has been up since four, and by the time you pull on your jacket and step onto the wrap-around terrace with a mug of coffee, the birch forest at the edge of the garden is already doing that thing it does in Södermanland summers — throwing long gold light through the leaves while the air smells faintly of pine resin and damp earth. Lake Långhalsen is a four-minute walk down the path. Nobody else is awake yet. This is Utterspåret 11. It's a compact, honest house — 57 square meters built in 1979, maintained with genuine care, and set on a 1,620 square meter plot that gives you the kind of breathing room that's increasingly hard to find at this price point in Sweden. Two bedrooms, one bathroom, a kitchen that works, and a living room anchored by a wood-burning stove that you'll use far more than you expect once October settles over Nyköping and the lake mist starts rolling in each morning. The stove isn't decorative. Come winter, it's the heart of the house. The terrace wraps the exterior and has both open and covered sections — a deliberate design that Swedes know well. You want sun in May when the temperature is still erratic. You want shade in July when it isn't. You want cover in August when the afternoon rain passes through. The terrace handles all of it, and it's large enough for a proper outdoor table, a couple of sun loungers, and whatever outdoor project you get absorbed in over a long weekend. The plot itself borders forest on one side, with no immediate neighbours on that flank. The garden is flat, open, and generous — room for a vegetable patch, a trampoline, a fire pit, a hammock between the birches. The side building currently runs as a small workshop a ... click here to read more

Step outside on a September morning and the air carries something you can't quite name at first — pine resin, damp earth, the faint sweetness of ripening apples from the three old trees at the edge of the lawn. The forest starts just beyond the fence line, and somewhere in there a woodpecker is hammering away at a birch. This is Norra Källbomark 40, a 130-year-old Swedish country house sitting on over a hectare of land outside Byske, and mornings here feel nothing like anywhere else. Built in 1891 and standing in genuinely good condition, this 1.5-story house has the solid bones of late 19th-century Swedish rural construction — thick walls, wooden floors that creak in the right places, windows that frame the surrounding meadows like paintings you never get tired of looking at. The 80 square metres of living space is arranged across two to three bedrooms depending on how you use the upper half-storey, a living room, and a functional kitchen that gets good afternoon light. It's the kind of layout that doesn't waste space on formality. You cook, you eat nearby, you move outside. And outside is really the point. Over 10,000 square metres of plot means you have genuine room to breathe — to grow things, to let children run without watching the edge of a terrace, to set up a proper vegetable garden or just leave most of it as the open meadow it already is. The three apple trees produce reliably each autumn; last year's crop was enough for sauce, cider, and still giving away bags to neighbours. The traditional barn at the back is built for purpose — storage, a workshop, a place to keep firewood bone dry through a Swedish winter. The separate sauna building is not a luxury add-on here. It's a Thursday evening, a Sunday afternoo ... click here to read more

The first thing you notice on a summer morning at Pålviksvägen 28 is the quiet. Not the dead quiet of an empty place, but the alive kind — pine resin warming in the sun, a woodpecker working somewhere deeper in the trees, the faint glitter of the Baltic just visible through the spruce. Three hundred meters to the water, and not a single car passing your door. That's the daily reality of this year-round holiday home in Harkskär, on the southern edge of Gävle's extraordinary archipelago. Sweden's High Coast gets most of the international press, but the Gästrikland shoreline around Utvalnäs and Harkskär has been the quiet obsession of Stockholm weekenders for generations. Good reason. The archipelago here is gentler than the rugged north — low granite skerries, calm sheltered inlets, water that warms enough by July for actual swimming rather than just the intention of it. The local Gammel Annabadet is a proper old-fashioned bathing spot, with wooden jetties and the kind of unpretentious summer-Sweden energy that's increasingly hard to find closer to the capital. The property itself sits at the end of Pålviksvägen — literally the last address on a no-through road — on a southwest-facing plot of roughly 2,383 square meters. That size matters. It means genuine privacy from neighbors, a proper mix of maintained lawn and natural forest that you walk through rather than just look at, and terraces that catch the evening light until surprisingly late in a Nordic summer. June evenings here, the sun barely touches the treeline before 10pm. You can sit on the main deck with a glass of something cold and watch the light do things to the forest that don't happen anywhere south of the 60th parallel. The main house was built in 1964 an ... click here to read more

Main house and garden view

Early on a July morning, before the rest of Sjömansvägen stirs, you can walk the hundred meters to Lake Jämten in bare feet on warm tarmac, towel over your shoulder, and have the water entirely to yourself. That's the kind of morning this place is built for. No queues, no noise, just pines and still water and the occasional heron lifting off the far bank. Sjömansvägen 5 sits in the Loviselund fritidsområde — a well-established recreational community tucked into Södermanland's lake district, about 120 kilometers southwest of Stockholm and a comfortable six kilometers from the market town of Flen. The plot is big. Really big. At 2,595 square meters, it feels more like a small estate than a holiday lot, with mature forest pressing right up to the boundary on one side and a gentle sense of openness on the other. In a region where well-placed leisure properties are quietly becoming harder to find, that kind of land footprint matters. The main house was built in 1984 and spreads across 65 square meters on a single level. Single-storey living here isn't a compromise — it's a genuine quality-of-life feature. No stairs to navigate when you're carrying groceries from Flen's ICA Supermarket, no awkward levels when grandparents visit, no hunting for light switches in the dark after a late evening on the west terrace. The layout is direct: hallway with a generous walk-in closet that doubles as a sleeping alcove for a third guest, a proper bedroom, a light-filled living room, and a functional kitchen with the essentials already in place — fridge-freezer, stove, cooktop, water heater. The living room opens directly onto a covered terrace facing east, and there's something quietly addictive about drinking your first coffee out there ... click here to read more

Step out the front door at seven in the morning and the only sound is birdsong. The dew is still sitting on the grass, the lake is just visible through the pines, and the coffee you left on the kitchen counter is already pulling you back inside. That's the rhythm of life at Dalvägen 8, and once you've felt it, a weekend trip to Sala will never feel like enough. This is a one-bedroom house on a 2,738-square-metre plot in the Ljömsebo area, roughly 15 kilometres outside Sala in central Sweden. It's priced at 104,500 EUR — the kind of number that makes people do a double-take, and rightly so. Properties like this, with a separate guest cottage, multiple outbuildings, and direct proximity to a lake with a proper swimming dock, don't surface often. The area has quietly shifted from a purely seasonal destination to a place where people actually live year-round, and that transition has made the local community feel grounded and real rather than the ghost-town-in-November type. The main house was built in 1974 and carries that particular solidity you find in Swedish timber construction from that era — a wooden facade, metal roof, walls that have been professionally re-insulated as recently as 2023 and 2024. Inside, the layout is compact but thought through: two rooms plus a kitchen, one bedroom, and a living area that opens directly onto a southwest-facing terrace. Southwest matters here. Swedish summers are long on light but short on calendar, so catching the afternoon and evening sun from late April through September is not a small thing. The terrace faces the right way to make that happen every single day. Heating is handled three ways: an air heat pump as the workhorse, electric radiators as backup, and a fireplace for th ... click here to read more

Step outside on a July morning and the plum tree by the terrace is already warm from the sun. The apples are weeks away from being ready. Somewhere across the green, a couple of kids are kicking a ball around the football pitch that borders the property. You've got coffee brewing inside. This is Fållökna — and it feels a long way from any city, even though Stockholm is under two hours away. This single-storey holiday home on Uvbergsvägen sits on a plot just over 2,000 square metres on the northern shore of Lake Nedingen, right in the geographical centre of Sörmland. That combination — water close by, forests behind, a working community around you — is exactly why Swedish families have been buying second homes in this part of Flens kommun for generations. Supply here is genuinely limited. Properties on the Nedingen shore don't come up often. The house itself covers 55 square metres sensibly. Two bedrooms with wooden floors, a living room anchored by an open fireplace with an insert, and a kitchen with a ceramic cooktop and combined fridge-freezer. Nothing flashy, nothing broken. The bathroom has wall cladding, a shower, and connects to the municipal water and sewage system — no well to maintain, no septic surprises. Fibre internet is already installed, which matters more than people expect when they're working remotely for a week or letting the kids stream something on a rainy afternoon. The living room earns its keep. Large windows pull in the garden light, and when you light the fire on a cool September evening after a day walking the Lagnö nature reserve trails, the wooden floor glows and the room genuinely earns the word cosy without needing any help from interior design. The west-facing covered terrace off the mai ... click here to read more

The first thing you notice on a July morning at Havsörnsstigen 28 is the light. It comes in low and golden through the trees on the east side of the plot before eight o'clock, falls across the wooden decking, and turns the whole garden into something worth waking up early for. You pour coffee. The sea is a three-minute walk down the lane. You can smell it before you see it. This is Södra Rörvik — a quiet residential pocket on the island of Väddö, tucked into the Roslagen archipelago about 100 kilometres north of Stockholm. People who know this stretch of the Swedish coast tend to keep it to themselves. The tourist crowds that flood Norrtälje town in summer somehow never quite reach here with the same intensity. The roads stay calm. The swimming cove stays clean. The neighbours wave but don't intrude. It has the particular Swedish quality of feeling genuinely unhurried in a way that coastal spots twice the price rarely manage. The house itself was built in 1964 — a classic Swedish sommarstuga in character, but extended and maintained into something that functions comfortably as a year-round home. At 69 square metres across four rooms, it's compact without feeling cramped. The living room carries the space confidently, with large windows that frame the garden rather than just letting light in — there's a difference, and here it matters. A wood-burning stove sits in the corner, and by late September when the evenings sharpen and the birch leaves go gold, it earns its place. The kitchen connects directly to the living space in a way that makes cooking feel social rather than isolated. Nothing fancy, but everything you actually need when you're spending summers here with people you like. Three bedrooms sleep the family com ... click here to read more

Front view of the holiday home

Early morning in Tived, the mist sits low over the pines and the only sound is birdsong and the faint lap of water from Lake Unden, just a four-minute walk down the road. You pull on a jacket, step off the wooden porch, and that's your commute. That's the life this place offers. Kungsbacken 4 is a 1965 Swedish fritidshus — a proper country cottage — set on a generous 1,831-square-metre plot in one of central Sweden's most quietly compelling corners. Two bedrooms, one bathroom, 51 square metres of warm, practical living space, and enough garden to lose yourself in for a whole afternoon. The price is 99,500 EUR. For what you get — a turn-key holiday home on the edge of a national park, fully furnished, beside a lake — that's a serious value proposition. The house itself is in good condition, well-maintained by the current owners and honest about what it is: a proper Swedish country retreat, not a showroom. The interior is bright, with windows that pull the treeline right into the living room. Large mature trees ring the garden, giving the kind of natural privacy that newer developments spend years trying to fake with fences and hedges. The kitchen is functional and ready to use from day one, and because the sale includes all furniture, there's no logistics headache — you arrive, you unpack a bag, you start living.

Early on a July morning, the forest around Ljungsjömålavägen is so quiet you can hear a pike break the surface of Lake Mien a kilometre down the road. The coffee's on, the kitchen window is cracked open, and the air coming through smells of pine resin and cool water. That's the kind of morning this place was built for. Completed in 2023, this three-bedroom holiday house sits on a 1,175 square metre plot in Bökemåla, a small community north of Karlshamn in Blekinge — Sweden's southernmost mainland county and one of the country's most underrated corners for a second home. The house is genuinely new, so you're not walking into someone else's renovation backlog. The bones are solid, the materials are fresh, and the energy performance reflects modern Swedish building standards. For an international buyer looking for a move-in-ready Swedish vacation home without the project headaches, that matters. The ground floor opens into a kitchen and living room that share the same open space. Large windows pull light in from the garden side, and the room has the kind of easy proportions that make it work both as a family gathering point and a quiet reading spot when everyone else is out by the lake. The kitchen itself is functional without being fussy — proper counter space, good storage, a layout that doesn't make cooking for six people feel like a military exercise. Two bedrooms sit off the entrance floor, both looking out onto the surrounding green. Upstairs, the attic level holds a third bedroom: a bit more private, a little more tucked away, good for teenagers or guests who appreciate their own corner of the house. A dedicated room on the main floor is pipe-ready for a future bathroom — the groundwork is done, the connections ar ... click here to read more

3 room vacation home at Vinbärsvägen 40, Valdemarsvik

Alright, I’ll try to type this up as quick as I can, it’s been a busy week with a lot of showings and so many questions from buyers around the world. But let’s jump straight into it because this property in Valdemarsvik (in Sweden for those of you less familiar) at Tranbärsvägen 5 has been on my radar and it’s quite an interesting opportunity. To my clients from abroad and fellow expats, I hope this gives you a clear, straight look at what living here is really like – nothing sugarcoated, just the facts and some of the local flavor. First, let’s lay it out: you’ve got a free standing house, reasonable size (83 m2), on a pretty large plot (1437 m2), with three bedrooms and one bathroom. The price is still under half a million SEK, which is becoming pretty rare in Sweden, especially somewhere with sea views and good living standards.
