Description
Nestled in the serene landscape of Linghem, Sweden, Gistad Asplund 1 offers a unique opportunity to own a quintessential Swedish country home. This charming property, dating back to 1909, is a perfect blend of rustic allure and modern convenience, making it an ideal second home or holiday retreat for those seeking tranquility without sacrificing accessibility.
Imagine waking up to the gentle rustle of leaves and the sweet scent of blooming flowers. As you step outside, the expansive 1,070 square meter garden greets you with its vibrant tapestry of mature fruit trees and colorful blooms. This outdoor haven is perfect for leisurely morning strolls, gardening, or simply soaking in the beauty of the Swedish countryside.
The cottage itself is a testament to timeless charm. With 40 square meters of living space, it offers a cozy yet functional layout. Original wooden floors and paneled ceilings exude warmth and character, while modern updates ensure comfort and safety. The heart of the home is the inviting living room, where a vaulted ceiling and an open fireplace create a cozy ambiance. Although the fireplace damper needs attention, it holds the promise of crackling fires on chilly evenings.
A modern air-source heat pump ensures the cottage remains comfortable year-round, providing efficient heating and cooling. The living room also features a ladder leading to a snug sleeping loft, perfect for guests or older children seeking a private retreat.
The kitchen, though compact, is brimming with character. A traditional wood-burning stove and a charming dining nook by the window make it a delightful space for culinary adventures. The kitchen's serving hatch to the living room adds a touch of vintage appeal, while the potential for water connection offers room for customization.
Adjacent to the kitchen, a versatile room currently serves as a dining area but could easily transform into a bedroom. With two windows and ample space, it offers flexibility to suit your needs.
The property's garden is a true highlight, offering ample space for outdoor activities, barbecues, and summer games. An outbuilding with potential for conversion into a summerhouse or garden pavilion provides an ideal spot for al fresco dining, even when the weather is less than perfect.
For those with a penchant for hosting, a small guest cottage (friggebod) offers comfortable accommodation for overnight visitors. Additional outbuildings include a traditional earth cellar for food storage and a larger storage building for essentials.
Gistad Asplund 1's location is a perfect blend of rural charm and urban convenience. Just 10 kilometers from Himnabadet, a popular outdoor swimming area, and Linghem center, which offers a grocery store, healthcare center, and more, the property ensures you have everything you need within reach. The vibrant city centers of Linköping and Norrköping are just a short drive away, offering cultural attractions, shopping, and dining options.
Whether you're seeking a peaceful weekend retreat, a summer getaway, or a project with potential for further development, this property offers a rare combination of character, space, and location. The large garden is perfect for gardening enthusiasts, families, or anyone who appreciates the beauty of the Swedish countryside.
