This charming country home, located at Vikingsborgsvägen 44, Vaxholm, Sweden, is a perfect retreat for those seeking a second home that combines tranquility, community, and the natural beauty of the Swedish landscape.
Imagine waking up to the gentle sounds of nature, with the scent of pine trees wafting through the air and the distant glimmer of the sea visible through the trees. This property, set on a generous 2,500 square meter plot, offers a unique opportunity to own a piece of this idyllic island, where the pace of life slows down, and the simple pleasures of archipelago living come to the fore.
The main house, a cozy 55 square meters, is a testament to the charm of traditional Swedish architecture. Built in the 1960s and expanded in 1987, it exudes warmth and character.

Hästholmen Island is a car-free haven, connected to the neighboring island of Stegesund.

The sense of community and tradition adds to the unique appeal of this location, making it an ideal spot for a second home.
For those who love the water, the property offers access to a shared boat dock in Vikingaviken, just a short walk from the house.
