This country home for sale in Farsund, Agder, comes with a 2,082 m² owned plot, a detached barn and a five-minute walk to the water at Agnekilen. The white wooden house dates from 1850 and is currently used as a holiday home. It has two bedrooms, a wood-burning stove and a kitchen door that opens straight onto the garden. The owned land is big enough for children to run around and for the family to spread out. Add the barn and the short walk to the boat mooring, and you have a place that works as a summer base on the Norwegian south coast. ### The House: 1850 Timber on a Natural Stone Foundation From the outside it looks like a classic Sørlandet cottage, with white-painted cladding on a natural stone foundation. Inside, the older details have been kept. The entrance door has arched glass panels and the floors are painted wood. The hall leads to the main rooms and to the stairs up. The dining room sits between the living room and the kitchen, with a wood-burning stove placed centrally so it warms both sides. Large windows look onto the garden and the trees around it. The kitchen has a tiled floor, plenty of worktop space and an open connection to the dining room. A sheltered seating spot just outside the kitchen door suits long summer dinners. The ground floor has 50 m² of usable area. The bathroom has a shower cabin, toilet, sink unit and room for a washing machine. Upstairs there are two bedrooms with painted timber walls and wooden floors. One sits under the sloping roof with built-in beds and shelving, and the other takes a double bed. A small loft room with seating looks over the courtyard. A further 23 m² of loft space falls outside the official measurement because of the low ceiling, but it still works for sto ... click here to read more

View towards the fjord and the hills surrounding the property.

This country home for sale in Trøndelag sits on Otterøya near Namsos, 400 metres from the sea with a view across to the island of Jøa. It has three bedrooms, a detached double garage and a 1,506 m² natural plot. The house began as a holiday cabin and has been extended twice, so it is now roomier than most second homes in this part of Norway. The address is in the rural Årnes area, with scattered housing and no neighbours close enough to hear. Namsos is under 30 minutes away by car, which makes this a quiet base that still has a proper town within reach. ### Country Home in Trøndelag: Layout and Condition The extensions date from 1997 and 2012, and the 2012 work added the most. The ground floor has an open living room with large windows facing the water. A wood-burning stove and a heat pump share the heating, so you can light the stove on a dark evening and let the heat pump keep the house at a steady temperature when you are away. Next to the living room is a dining area by the window, where you eat with the view in front of you. The kitchen was upgraded around 2012. It has white profiled fronts and integrated appliances. A glass door separates the entrance hall from the living room, which keeps wet boots and jackets out of the main room. This is useful in a climate that gives you plenty of both. The ground floor also has a bedroom with built-in wardrobes and a bathroom with laundry space. The bathroom has a shower cabin and electric underfloor heating. Upstairs, the loft is clad in pine panelling and holds two more bedrooms, a landing and storage space in the knee walls. Three bedrooms and 96 m² suit a family, or two couples sharing a summer week.

This country home for sale in Halden, Østfold sits on a private 6,118 m² plot, a ten-minute walk from the Ørsjøen lake. Built in 1986 and kept in good order, it is a 138 m² leisure home with a large basement, an open fireplace and room for a proper garden. It suits a family looking for a second home in Norway, or anyone who wants a base for swimming, fishing and hiking close to the Swedish border. ### The House: 138 m² Plus a 67 m² Basement The main floor is built around a living room with large windows, enough wall space for a sofa group and television, and an open fireplace for winter evenings. Floors in the living room and kitchen are wood, and the walls are clad in rustic timber panelling, so the house feels like a cabin rather than a suburban villa. The kitchen has profiled cabinets, a laminate worktop and a cooker hood with external extraction. There are two bedrooms, both spacious with good storage. The main bedroom has plenty of wardrobe space. A third room is currently used for sleeping, but it is not approved for permanent habitation, so treat it as a guest room, home office or hobby room rather than an extra official bedroom. The bathroom has a bathtub, washbasin and toilet, with a tiled floor and electric underfloor heating. Then there is the basement. At about 67 m² with good ceiling height, it is divided into four rooms and can be entered from inside the house and from outside. Most buyers will use it for storage and outdoor gear at first, but the layout leaves room for further development. Counting the 52 m² of external usable area, the total usable space comes to 190 m². ### Plot, Water Supply and Year-Round Access The land is privately owned and covers about 6,118 m². That is enough for a vegetable ... click here to read more

Welcome to Ånerødveien 3! Photo: Sonaab v/Sondre Aabø

This country home for sale in Innlandet, near Braskereidfoss, has two cabins, a new summer house and a lake 300 metres from the door. The buildings stand on a freehold plot of 1,007 m² and add up to 72 m² of living space and three bedrooms. At €199,000 it is a ready-to-use holiday home where family or friends can sleep in their own cabin, with no second purchase needed. ### Three Buildings on 1,007 m² of Freehold Land The main cabin dates from 1973 and has 38 m² of gross internal area. Inside you find an entrance hall, a living room, a kitchen, two bedrooms and a utility room. The guest cabin followed in 1984 and adds 34 m² with its own living room, kitchen and bedroom. Guests get real independence, yet it is only a few steps back to the main cabin for breakfast or an evening fire. A summer house, built new in 2023, covers 17 m² of external area. Think of it as the place for a book and a cup of coffee when the cabins are busy. A further outbuilding of 7 m² gives you storage and an outdoor WC. The listing mentions no other sanitary arrangements, so ask how washing and bathroom facilities work when you view. Outside, terraces total 81 m², enough for a long table and a separate corner for sunbathing. The garden is well kept, with room for children to play, a vegetable bed or a fire pit. ### Recent Upgrades, Fireplaces and Solar Panels The property is in good condition, and much of the work is recent. In 2022 and 2023 the main cabin received a new kitchen, a new fireplace, fresh paint, a larger window and a new front door. The guest cabin also has a new kitchen and fireplace and freshly painted interiors. Both cabins are heated by fireplaces, which is how most Norwegians warm a cabin anyway. A solar panel system cove ... click here to read more

This country home for sale in Kløfta sits on 8,945 m² of land beside the forest, under 15 minutes by car from Oslo Airport Gardermoen. The house dates from around 1900 and has 161 m² of living space, four bedrooms and room to spread out. It is a renovation project, so it suits a buyer who likes to work on a house and see it come together. The reward is a large, private plot within commuting distance of Oslo. That is hard to find in this part of Akershus. ### The Country Home and Its 8,945 m² Plot The plot is roughly 2.2 acres, with open fields on one side and forest as the closest neighbour. Step out of the door and you are on your own land, with no row of garden fences in sight. The garden gives you space for vegetable beds, fruit trees or a proper lawn. A 10 m² balcony/terrace looks over the surrounding countryside, a good spot for morning coffee before the day starts. The land is classified as LNFR, which covers agriculture, nature and outdoor recreation. In practice that keeps the surroundings open and quiet. It also limits what can be built, so any plans for extra buildings or animals should be checked with the municipality first. The main building is a leisure home (hytte) spread over two floors, with six rooms in total. Each floor has its own entrance, and the upper one is reached by an external staircase of steel and wood. That layout could work for a family with grandparents or grown-up children, or for a self-contained second unit. Any rental use would need to meet municipal rules. ### A Renovation Project: What to Expect The house is sold as-is and needs comprehensive renovation. You could restore the old structure with respect for its age, or modernise it to your own taste. The building is registered i ... click here to read more

A large plot with potential for those ready for a comprehensive project.

Stand at the kitchen window on a Tuesday morning and count the colours in the fjord. Slate grey, deep ink blue, and in summer a kind of impossible turquoise that doesn't show up in photographs. The mountains on the far shore are so close they feel like walls—protective rather than imposing—and the only sounds at this hour are water lapping against your own shoreline and the occasional fishing boat heading out toward Nordfjorden. This is Torheimsvegen 1802. It's a lot of house on a lot of land, right at the edge of the water, and there's nothing quite like it on the Norwegian west coast at this price. The plot runs to 3,908 square metres, which is generous by any measure—vast by fjordside standards. Most of it slopes gently down to the water's edge, where you have direct shoreline access. That means your own place to moor a small boat, cast a line for cod and mackerel, or simply sit with your feet dangling above the fjord on a long June evening when the light doesn't quit until nearly midnight. The south-facing orientation means the garden soaks up every hour of available sun, which matters enormously this far north. In July and August, it's genuinely warm enough to eat outside most nights. The house itself is 254 square metres spread across three floors—five bedrooms, two living rooms, a full kitchen, bathroom, hallway, storage rooms, and a handful of unfinished spaces that are essentially a blank canvas. The main living areas are light-filled and wide, with windows sized to do justice to the view. You're not peering at the fjord through a porthole; you're living alongside it. The kitchen opens directly onto a terrace, so summer mornings flow easily from coffee inside to coffee outside without any of the awkward transi ... click here to read more

Welcome to Torheimsvegen 1802!

Step off the ferry at Batnfjorden on a Saturday morning in July, and the first thing you notice is the quiet. Not the dead kind — the alive kind. Birdsong, water moving somewhere below the treeline, the distant sound of a motorboat cutting across the fjord. Walk ten minutes up Holtavegen and you arrive at a gate that opens onto something genuinely rare: a former farm turned multi-cabin holiday estate, sitting on over 14,000 square meters of west Norwegian countryside, with the sea just half a kilometer down the road. This is Holtavegen 75, Torvikbukt — and it doesn't look like most holiday properties you'll find in Møre og Romsdal. It looks like something a Norwegian family held onto for decades, updated slowly and lovingly, and is now releasing to someone ready to carry it forward. Three separate cabins stand across the property. The main cabin, white-painted and built in 1930, anchors the estate with the kind of low-slung solidity you see in old Norwegian farmhouses — thick walls, steep pitched roof, windows framed to catch every angle of light off the fjord. Inside, the layout spans two floors. The living room has a fireplace at its center, and on October evenings when the temperature drops fast and the mountains across the water go purple in the dusk, that fireplace becomes the entire social life of the house. The kitchen connects directly to the terrace, which matters more than it sounds — summer here means long evenings outside, dinner at nine with the sun still above the ridgeline, and you'll want that door propped open. The gray annex runs to two floors as well — bedrooms, a bathroom, a living area — and functions perfectly as a self-contained wing for in-laws, adult children, or close friends who want their o ... click here to read more

Stand on the wide timber terrace at Åsheimveien 24 on a clear June morning and you'll understand immediately why people have been drawn to this hillside above Krøderfjord for well over a century. The fjord catches the early light in long silver streaks. Spruce forest runs up the ridge behind you. Somewhere below, a tractor engine hums faintly through the valley. This is rural Norway at its most genuine — unhurried, open, and completely yours. The property itself dates to around 1890, and the main house still carries that era in its bones: log-construction walls on the first floor, original painted floorboards upstairs, pine flooring in the living room, and a staircase steep enough to remind you this was built by people who thought nothing of hard winters. None of that is a complaint. It's exactly what makes this place worth owning. The character is real — not reconstructed, not styled for a magazine shoot. At the same time, the practical essentials have been quietly updated over the years. The pine beam structure was replaced in 2000. Most windows were fitted with new wooden-framed, insulated glass units in 2015. The front door — solid, painted timber with insulated glazing — went in the following year. A private drilled well supplies clean, reliable water independent of municipal infrastructure. The basement bathroom, installed in 2001, has a shower cabin, toilet, and wooden vanity. Everything works. Nothing is flashy. The kitchen is the heart of the ground floor, as it should be. A wood-burning stove sits at the center of daily life here — warming the room through October evenings, drawing everyone in from outside after a long walk through the farm's own forest. The cabinetry mixes older, hand-built units with newer ... click here to read more

On a still July morning at Veibyveien 186, the only thing that breaks the silence is a wood pigeon calling from somewhere deep in the birch trees behind the barn. You're sitting on the steps of a cabin built in 1900, coffee in hand, looking out over 2,334 square meters of your own Norwegian countryside. Oslo is sixty minutes south. Right now, it feels like another world. This is the kind of property that people talk about finding for years before they actually find it. A genuine smallholding-style leisure property in Båstad, Østfold — with a main cabin, a traditional barn, an annex, and a carport all sitting together on a quietly generous plot surrounded by open farmland. Not a cookie-cutter cabin development. Not a holiday park timeshare. A real place, with real character, that happens to also be deeply practical. The main cabin dates to 1900 and the bones show it — thick walls, a solid staircase, rooms that feel like they were built to last rather than to impress. Renovations over the years have introduced electricity, a wood stove, and a functional kitchen without stripping the building of its original atmosphere. Ground floor runs from an entrance hall through to a proper kitchen, a TV lounge, and a dining room with enough space to seat a family comfortably for a long Friday night meal. Upstairs, the staircase landing opens to two bedrooms and a common room — the kind of space where teenagers read, younger kids play board games, and adults eventually admit they've had a good day. Summer water supply means the property is fully operational through the warmer months, which in this part of Norway means roughly May through October, and often longer. The barn is worth a serious look. Structurally traditional, generousl ... click here to read more

Welcome to idyllic Veibyveien 186!

Picture this: it's six in the morning, the Trondheim Fjord is completely flat, and the only sound coming through the kitchen window is a guillemot calling somewhere out over the water. You're making coffee in a house that's been watching the tides since 1919. That's what Lernesstranda 313 feels like on a Tuesday in July, and honestly, it's hard to go back to city life after that. This three-bedroom Norwegian coastal holiday home sits right at the shoreline in Kyrksæterøra, a small town at the southern tip of Hemnefjorden in the Trøndelag region. At 62 square metres across two floors, it's not trying to be grand. It's trying to be exactly what a sea cabin should be: compact, warm, fully ready to use, and positioned so close to the water that you can smell the salt before you've even opened the front door. The house was built in 1919 and extended in 2002, and you can feel both eras in the layout. The ground floor has a 12-square-metre living room with a fireplace that gets serious use from September through May, when the fjord light turns silver and the evenings come early. Large windows frame the water directly — no road, no neighbour, just the fjord. The 10-square-metre kitchen has enough counter space to actually cook a proper meal, and whoever designed the layout had the good sense to put the dining area where you can eat while watching the boats go by. Three bedrooms sit upstairs — 10, 11, and 12 square metres respectively — quiet, private, and cross-ventilated by the coastal breeze on warmer nights. The bathroom is modest at 3 square metres, with a shower cabin and washing machine, plus a separate toilet room. Electricity is installed, water comes from a private well, and everything is sold fully furnished. You ar ... click here to read more

Stand at the kitchen window on a Tuesday morning and count the herons. That's the kind of quiet this place offers. The water of Fjæreidpollen sits just below, flat and grey-green in the early light, and the old boathouse at the shore's edge looks exactly as it did a hundred years ago. This isn't a sanitized weekend retreat—it's thirty hectares of actual Norway, untouched and unhurried, twenty minutes from Bergen's city center. The house itself dates to 1900. It shows its age in all the right ways: exposed ceiling beams, a wood-burning stove in the living room, original detailing that most modern builds spend a fortune trying to recreate. At 89 square meters of interior living space, it's compact but well-configured across two floors. The ground floor holds an entrance hall, living room, kitchen with a mix of built-in and modular cabinetry, two bedrooms, and a secondary entrance that doubles as a laundry and storage room. Upstairs, a generous loft room—currently used as a third sleeping space—catches southern light through a single window and looks out over the surrounding terrain. It's the kind of room that earns the label "attic bedroom" in the best possible sense. Honest assessment: the house needs work. Real work. Buyers who come here expecting a turnkey weekend cottage will be disappointed. Buyers who come with a renovation mindset, a good contractor, and genuine enthusiasm for bringing a century-old Norwegian farmhouse back to life will find something that can't be replicated at any price in today's market. The bones are solid. The character is irreplaceable. The boathouse—naust, in Norwegian—sits at the edge of the fjord inlet, roughly a five-minute walk from the main house. It measures around 39 square meters a ... click here to read more

Fjæreidevegen 238 presented by Dag Erik Fotland, EiendomsMegler 1.

On a quiet evening in July, the smell of woodsmoke drifts from the pizza oven by the west-facing terrace as the sun dips low over the fjord landscape—still bright at 9pm in that particular way only western Norway can manage. That's the moment you understand what this place is actually for. Not just a house. A rhythm. A reason to exhale. Radøyvegen 2525 sits in Kvalheim, a pocket of rural Hordaland that most Bergen residents think of as a best-kept secret. The nearest bus stop is 450 meters down the road, Kvalheimsvatnet lake is practically in the backyard, and the open sea is a four-minute walk away. Yet despite all that quiet, you're never truly cut off. Bergen—one of Scandinavia's most livable cities—is about an hour's drive south along the E39, and the regional center of Knarvik with its full-service shopping is thirty minutes by car. Bøvågen itself has a Bunnpris supermarket just minutes away, and the town of Manger handles most everyday errands in ten to twelve minutes. The house itself was built in 1978 and sits on a 1,067-square-meter plot. Ninety-four square meters of internal living space spread across two floors—compact enough to maintain easily, large enough to feel genuinely comfortable with family or friends in tow. The layout is honest and practical: a bright main living room of around 22 square meters with oversized windows pulling in light from multiple directions, a wood-burning stove in the corner that earns its keep from October through April, and direct access to the main terrace. That terrace is worth dwelling on. At roughly 41 square meters, it's not some token slab of concrete—it's an outdoor room. There's an electrically operated awning for the midday summer sun, space for a proper dining setup ... click here to read more

Front view of the property

Stand at the kitchen window on a still July morning and count the layers: the grass track curving down through birch and pine, the glint of the Bindalsfjord catching the low Nordic sun, a neighbor's boat cutting a quiet V across the water. No traffic. No crowd noise. Just the creak of the old house settling and the occasional clatter of sheep on the hillside below. This is what 400 meters from the Norwegian coast actually feels like when you have 96 decares of land wrapped around you like a buffer from the rest of the world. Åkvikveien 225 is a genuine working smallholding on the Helgeland coast in Nordland, and it has been in continuous use since around 1900. That's not a selling point dressed up to sound historical — it means the bones are real. The timber has dried over generations, the walls have been reinforced, insulated, and upgraded steadily from the 1980s right through to today, and the result is a main house that feels lived in rather than staged. Three bedrooms, one bathroom, a proper kitchen with a wood-burning stove that heats the room fast on wet autumn evenings, a laundry room, a ground-floor WC, and a living room just over 21 square meters where the afternoon light comes through long enough to make you forget your book entirely. Upstairs, the two bedrooms sit under a roofline that also hides 14 square meters of unfinished attic space — raw and full of possibility. A reading loft, a kids' bunk room, a small home office with a forest view. The structure is already there. What you do with it is yours to decide. Out in the yard stands the annex, built in 2007 using stavlaft — the traditional Norwegian log technique where each round timber is hand-notched and stacked without nails. It's 12.5 square meters o ... click here to read more

House and annex seen from above

Step outside on a Saturday morning in late June and the air smells like cut grass and pine resin. The garden at Ryfylkeveien 736 is still dewy, the greenhouse door is propped open, and somewhere down the valley a church bell carries on the wind. This is what owning a holiday home in Rogaland actually feels like — not a postcard, not a brochure image, but a quiet, grounded kind of joy that you don't find in beach resorts or city-break apartments. Sandnes sits just south of Stavanger, Norway's fourth-largest city, yet Ryfylkeveien 736 occupies a world that feels genuinely removed from the urban pace. The address places you along the old Ryfylke road, a route that traces its way through some of inland Rogaland's most compelling countryside — rolling farmland, dark forest ridgelines, and the occasional flash of fjord water when the light hits right. The plot itself covers approximately 2,488 square meters, a rare expanse of private land that gives the property its most immediate selling point: room. Room to breathe, to garden, to let children run without ever reaching a fence. The house was built around 1938, and it carries that era's honest craftsmanship without pretending to be something it isn't. Eighty-odd years of Norwegian winters will do that to a building — either they break it or they make it solid. This one is solid. The main structure spans 70 square meters of internal usable space, arranged across a living room, kitchen, and two bedrooms. The total usable area, once you factor in the annex and outbuildings, reaches 105 square meters, which gives the property genuine flexibility for how you actually use it. The living room is the heart of the place. Large windows face the garden, so on clear days you're watchin ... click here to read more

DNB Eiendom presents Ryfylkeveien 736

Pull up to Skjærgårdsveien on a July evening and the light does something you won't forget. The Norwegian summer sun hangs low over the Smøla archipelago, painting the skerries in amber, and the only sounds are the creak of the boathouse door and the soft slap of water against the hull of your boat. This is Veiholmen — a tight-knit coastal community on one of Norway's most wind-carved, sea-soaked islands — and this three-bedroom country home sits right at the heart of it. Built in 1939, the house carries the kind of quiet confidence that only comes with age. Original Norwegian coastal architecture: solid, unhurried, built to face Atlantic weather without flinching. It's been kept in good condition over the decades, and that history is part of the appeal. Walk through the front and you're not buying a show home — you're buying something real. The bones are excellent. The 139 square metres of interior space across three floors feels generous and human-scaled, with rooms that invite you to actually use them rather than just admire them. The southeast-to-west wrapping veranda is where you'll spend most of your time between May and September. Morning coffee in the sun. Late dinners that stretch past 10 p.m. because the sky still hasn't fully darkened. Children running down into the 720-square-metre freehold garden while adults argue pleasantly about whether to take the boat out before or after lunch. The garden is flat, well-maintained, and fully fenced — practical in the way that real holiday-home living demands. Inside, the living room windows frame a view across the seascape that shifts with every tide and weather front. On clear days you can watch fishing vessels tracking their way through the outer skerries. When a we ... click here to read more

Stand on the terrace on a still October morning and you can hear the Glomma moving below — that low, unhurried push of Scandinavia's longest river finding its way south. A pair of elk tracks cut through the frost on the lawn. Smoke curls from the fire pit from the night before. This is Rena, and this is the kind of morning that makes you stop checking your phone. Øgle-Vikenveien 960 sits east of the Glomma, elevated just enough at 247 metres above sea level to give you uninterrupted views across the river and toward the Hovda valley beyond. It's about a ten-minute drive into Rena centre — close enough to grab groceries at Coop or catch a bus at the stop six minutes down the road on foot, but far enough that you genuinely cannot hear a neighbour's television through the wall. The lot runs to 3,001 square metres of garden, grass, and gravel, giving the place a spread that most Norwegians living in town would quietly envy. The house itself has been properly overhauled since 2020 — not cosmetically touched up, but genuinely rebuilt where it counts. The kitchen went in during 2022 and it shows: clean cabinetry, integrated dishwasher, oven, microwave and cooktop, worktop space that actually lets two people cook at the same time. The bathroom was done the same year — fully tiled, underfloor heating throughout, the kind of finish that makes a cold November morning feel less punishing. Both rooms were done to a standard you'd expect from new construction, which means a new owner walks in and starts using the place rather than planning a renovation project. The 85-square-metre main floor layout is straightforward and honest: hallway, kitchen, bathroom, bedroom, dining room, and a living room that opens directly onto the south-f ... click here to read more

Picture yourself on a 140-square-meter terrace, morning coffee in hand, watching the early light paint the fjord waters in shades of silver and blue while snow-capped peaks frame the horizon. This is the daily reality at Solland 6, a meticulously maintained year-round cabin where Norwegian mountain living meets modern comfort just minutes from both alpine slopes and coastal waters. Built in 2004 on a private 459-square-meter plot in Saudasjøen, this four-bedroom retreat offers international buyers a rare gateway to authentic Scandinavian lifestyle—a place where winter ski adventures and summer fjord explorations happen from the same front door. The Rogaland region of Norway delivers what vacation home buyers dream about: dramatic natural contrasts that transform with the seasons.

Spring brings the midnight sun phenomenon, where daylight stretches into evening hours, perfect for extended hikes through awakening valleys. Summer invites kayaking on mirror-calm fjord waters and fishing expeditions where Atlantic salmon run through crystal streams.

This 144-square-meter cabin positions you at the crossroads of all these experiences, with easy year-round access that many mountain properties cannot match.

Welcome to Stillausveien 16!

The first thing you notice on a clear July morning is the light. It arrives early up here on Lensmannsfjellet — bouncing off the water below, flooding the cabin's wide windows, turning the approach to Hankø into something silver and alive. You pour your coffee, step out onto the 97-square-metre terrace, and the view just sits there, patient and vast. That's the rhythm this place puts you in, and it happens within about ten minutes of arriving. Gressvik is not a name that appears on many international travel itineraries. That's precisely the point. Tucked along the west bank of the Glomma river's outlet on Norway's southern coast, this quiet community sits in the outer reaches of the Fredrikstad municipality — far enough from the noise, close enough to everything that matters. The plot at Lensmannsfjellet 20 sits elevated on a private 3,594-square-metre parcel, giving the four-bedroom chalet a natural sense of separation from the world below. No neighbours crowding your morning. No competing noise. Just the occasional creak of birch trees and the faint sound of boats tracking out toward open water. Walk down toward the shoreline — it's genuinely just a short walk — and you hit some of the best swimming on the Østfold coast. The Glomma's western outlet produces clean, calm water conditions that locals have been coming back to for generations. Families spread towels across the smooth coastal rock in August while kids jump from the edges. Earlier in the season, when the summer crowds are thinner, you'll often have entire stretches of it to yourself. The water temperature peaks mid-July and stays swimmable well into August, which gives this part of coastal Norway a surprisingly generous warm season. Just beyond the propert ... click here to read more

Welcome to the popular cabin area at Skjellumfjellet!

The smell hits you first. That particular mix of pine resin, salt air, and woodsmoke that you only get in coastal Norway — the kind that makes your shoulders drop the moment you step off the bus on Langgårdsveien. The cabin at number 11 sits quietly on its 1,068 square metre plot like it's always been here, because honestly, it more or less has. Built in 1955, this is a proper hytte in the original Norwegian sense: unpretentious, solid, and surrounded by the kind of green silence that people pay a lot of money to find. This is Gressvik, a small coastal community on the western bank of the Glomma estuary, roughly five kilometres from the centre of Fredrikstad — one of the best-preserved fortress towns in Scandinavia. You're far enough from the city to feel completely detached from it, but close enough that a quick drive along the E6 brings you back to civilization whenever you want it. The cabin itself is 40 square metres of honest, functional space — two bedrooms, a kitchen, and a living room anchored by an open wood-burning fireplace. Light the fire on an October evening with the windows misted over and a pot of something on the stove, and you'll understand immediately why Norwegians have been doing this for generations. The fireplace isn't decorative. It does real work. Alongside electric panel heaters, it keeps the interior genuinely comfortable well into autumn and through early spring, extending the usable season well beyond the summer months. Step outside and the 14-square-metre south-facing terrace earns its keep. Morning coffee here in July, when the sun is up before 5am and the garden is already warm, is the kind of small luxury that's hard to put a price on. The plot is big — properly big for a cabin of this ... click here to read more

Welcome to Bjerkelunden 15!

Discover the Charm and Potential of a Slevik Villa in Need of Your Creative Touch Nestled at the quiet end of Slevik allé, this three-bedroom villa with a land total of 183 square meters emerges as an authentic renovation gem. This delightful property extends an invitation to rejuvenate a space that once pulsed with vibrance and charm. Situated on a generously sized, secluded plot that bathes in sunlight, the villa is ideally positioned for those looking to combine the peacefulness of a private retreat with the convenience of nearby urban amenities. Property Description and Features Upon entering the villa, you'll find a spacious ground floor designed to accommodate all your daily living needs, from a cozy living area to a functional kitchen space. However, it is in need of renovation to restore its former beauty. The upper floor hosts two additional rooms, offering flexible space for bedrooms or perhaps a home office, depending on your needs.

This is Slevik allé 16, a property with great potential on a sunny and secluded plot.

Step out onto the west-facing deck at Vikanetoppen 18 on a July evening. The pine trees are still warm from the afternoon sun, the air smells faintly of resin and salt, and somewhere below the ridge, through gaps in the forest, you can just catch the glint of the Oslofjord. That's the moment you'll stop looking at other properties. Gressvik sits on the eastern shore of the fjord in Østfold, a stretch of coastline that Norwegians have quietly kept to themselves for decades. It's not the kind of place that turns up in travel magazines, and that's exactly the point. The community of Vikane, perched above Gressvik on smooth granite outcrops and wrapped in Scots pine, has been a cherished escape for Norwegian families for generations. Properties here — particularly ones with a freehold plot of over 2,300 square meters — almost never reach the open market. The chalet itself is 65 square meters across the main cabin and the detached annex combined, and the layout has clearly been shaped by people who actually use it. The living room runs wide and open, with enough floor space for a proper sofa group and a dining table that fits eight when the occasion calls for it. A fireplace anchors one wall. On cold October weekends, when the birch trees outside are shedding the last of their gold, that fireplace makes everything else irrelevant. Come summer, it's the 31-square-meter west-facing terrace that takes over — partially covered, built from stained hardwood decking, and positioned so the sun lingers there well into the evening hours. Al fresco dinners that start at six and somehow end at eleven. That kind of terrace. The kitchen is compact but genuinely functional, fitted with a stove, cooktop, and full refrigerator-freezer, wit ... click here to read more

Welcome to Vikanetoppen 18

This two-bedroom chalet for sale in Fredrikstad sits on a 1,200 m² natural plot at Stensvikfjellet, five to six minutes from the beach. It is a 62 m² holiday home with a separate annex, two terraces and a registered right to a boat berth at Stensvik. The forest starts at the edge of the plot, the water is a short walk away, and Oslo is just over an hour by car. That makes Friday-evening arrivals realistic, which is what a second home in Norway needs to be. ### The Chalet and Its 1,200 m² Plot The chalet is compact: two bedrooms, one bathroom and 62 m² of living area. That is a size that is easy to heat, easy to keep tidy and easy to lock up on a Sunday evening. The living room is arranged around a wood-burning stove, with large windows facing the trees. The kitchen is practical and equipped for everyday cooking. A separate annex gives you flexibility. Use it for extra guests, as a hobby room or simply as storage. Outside there are two terraces, so you can choose between a quiet morning coffee and a summer barbecue with friends. The garden is maintained and runs gradually into the natural landscape. There is open ground for children to play and quieter corners further back. The plot is about 1,200 m² and privately owned. A storage shed holds bikes and outdoor gear, and there is parking on the property. A private road gives year-round access. Water and sewer are installed, and the cabin is connected to electricity. The condition is listed as good. ### Beach, Boat Berth and Forest at Stensvikfjellet Stensvik beach is about five to six minutes from the door. The shoreline slopes gently, so it works well for small children as well as for adults who just want a swim. The property also comes with a registered right to a ... click here to read more

Step out onto the south-facing terrace on a July morning, coffee in hand, and the first thing you notice is the light. Norwegian summer light at this latitude has a quality that's hard to explain until you've experienced it—broad, golden, unhurried, pouring across 38 square meters of deck with nowhere to be. The pines hold still. The sea is 100 meters away, and you can just catch the salt in the air if the breeze is coming from the right direction. This is Vestre Myråsen 80, a cabin on the outer edges of Gressvik that's been a proper summer base since 1965, and it still does the job about as well as anything in the Østfold coastal belt. Gressvik sits on the Rolvsøy island in the Fredrikstad municipality, separated from central Fredrikstad by the Glomma river and connected to it by bridge in under ten minutes by car. That geography matters. You get genuine seclusion—the kind of quiet that's genuinely rare this close to a city—while remaining within arm's reach of one of Norway's most historically significant towns. Fredrikstad's Gamlebyen, the old town fortress district, is the best-preserved fortified town in Scandinavia. Its cobblestone lanes, 17th-century barracks converted into galleries and craft shops, and the seasonal market along the moat are the sort of thing you keep rediscovering every summer. The short ferry crossing from Gamlebyen to Isegran island takes about two minutes and runs all day. It never gets old. Back at the cabin, the plot itself is the first thing that strikes you. At 1,848 square meters, it's unusually generous for this stretch of the coastline, and the trees and natural hedging on the perimeter give it the feeling of a private compound rather than a standard holiday parcel. Children have roo ... click here to read more

Set against a remarkable waterfront backdrop, the cabin has a history etched into its very beams, having stood tall since 1957. It tells tales of summers spent by the water's edge and winters cozying up inside, looking out at the expansive seascape. The property is not just a cabin; it's an opportunity to create memories, whether through recreation or relaxation.

This expansive property, boasting 285 square meters, holds considerable promise for restoration enthusiasts ready to transform it into a tailored haven.
