Description

Discover the serene countryside of Rimbo at this inviting property nestled on Lillkolstavägen 9, Kolsta in the idyllic Norrtälje Municipality. This delightful country home promises a tranquil lifestyle, just yearning for new owners to create lasting memories. Let’s take a journey through this wonderful home and explore the area around to see why it could be your perfect new abode.

Perched at the end of a serene gravel cul-de-sac, this recently revamped villa spans approximately 117 square meters. Step inside and admire the harmonious blend of functionality and warmth, right from the tastefully painted wooden floors on the lower level to the charming darker tones on the upper floor. The home radiates a rustic yet refined vibe, making it ideal for those who appreciate understated but characterful living spaces.

Wander into the heart of the home—the beautifully remodeled kitchen, equipped with gray cabinets that complement the space. Complete with modern appliances, including a stove, extractor fan, wood stove, dishwasher, and fridge/freezer, this kitchen is a hub for culinary creativity and family gatherings.

The inviting living room is perfect for relaxing or entertaining, boasting sliding doors that open up to the private south-facing terrace. Here, you can bask in the sun all day, enjoy meals with family or friends, or simply unwind surrounded by the soothing breeze. The living room also features a cast-iron wood stove which adds comfort and a homely feel, great for chilly Scandinavian nights.

Upstairs, you’ll discover two cozy bedrooms and a hallway offering peaceful retreats. The bathroom features essentials like a bathtub, sink, toilet, and a washing machine, making everyday chores a breeze. An additional guest house provides an extra room and storage options, a handy space for visitors or projects.

The outdoors is a haven for nature lovers, with a garden filled with perennials, lilacs, and the fragrance of jasmine filling the air. There’s a lilac hedge along the gravel road and an enclosed area perfect for your furry friends. It's a private paradise where you can enjoy morning coffees, or evening story times with the kids under the stars.

If you're looking for additional investment, two fresh sheds with building permits are available for purchase, offering you room for expansion or a personal project space. The property has its own drilled well and a toilet drain system updated in 2019, adding convenience and long-term reliability.

Living in Rimbo offers a unique blend of tranquility and connectivity. The environment is perfect for those seeking a peaceful rural lifestyle, away from the bustle of the city. Yet, you’re never too far from urban conveniences. The property is just about 300 meters from the picturesque Lake Uttran, where you can enjoy swimming or peaceful walks along the shore. For those commuting, it’s a short trip to nearby Malmby for bus connections, a quick drive to Kårsta station, or a manageable commute to Stockholm University, merely 40 minutes by car.

Nature is a significant part of life here, with the changing seasons offering beautiful, scenic views and diverse activities. From snowy winters that transform the landscape into a white wonderland, perfect for skiing and other winter sports, to warm summers that provide the best conditions for hiking, fishing, and exploring the surrounding forests.

Rimbo offers a deep-rooted sense of community with welcoming locals and a chance to partake in various cultural festivities held throughout the year. The peace and quiet of country living, combined with the local amenities like shops, cafes, and schools cater well to families wanting a wholesome environment for children to grow and play.

Moreover, the location, being rural, promises cleaner air, open space for gardening, and an overall healthier lifestyle choice for those seeking to break away from urban chaos while still remaining connected globally—a rare find indeed.

Though not everything about this home connotes a modern-day luxurious living, it’s genuinely about embracing the joys of simplicity, reconnecting with nature, an opportunity to perhaps slow down, and enjoy life’s little treasures. It's about finding a haven away from the fast pace of city life without compromising on essential conveniences and connection.

Experience the best of country life with the potential for personal touches that transform this house into a cherished home.

Stand on the terrace just after sunrise, coffee in hand, and watch a family of deer pick their way across the fairway below. The pond catches the early light. Somewhere behind you, through cedar-clad walls still cool from the Swedish night, a fire is waiting to be lit. This is a Tuesday morning in Örkelljunga—and it feels like a week away from the world. Woodlands Country Club sits in the heart of Skåne, the southernmost county in Sweden, tucked into a landscape that shifts dramatically with the seasons. Spring brings lime-green birch leaves and the thwack of the first golf round of the year. Summer gets genuinely warm here—Skåne sits closer to Copenhagen than Stockholm, and long June evenings stretch past ten o'clock. Come October, the forest turns amber and rust, and the fairways are yours almost alone. There is something quietly special about this corner of Sweden that visitors from Germany, the Netherlands, and the UK have been discovering for years. Örkelljunga itself is a small town with real character: a bakery on Storgatan that opens at seven, a Thursday market in summer, and a pace of life that makes you realize you've been moving too fast. The house at plot 44 was designed by Henning Larsen Architects—a Copenhagen-based firm with a genuine international reputation, not a name dropped casually. The building sits elevated on pillars, its footprint following the slope of the land rather than flattening it. That decision, which might sound technical, means the forest floor runs uninterrupted beneath and around the structure. You don't arrive at the house so much as into it, the cedar facade having weathered to a silver-grey tone that reads almost like bark from a distance. Built in 2008 and maintained in excellen ... click here to read more

The ferry horn sounds somewhere out on the water, and you're already halfway through your morning coffee on the deck — the one with the birch tree growing straight through the middle of it, branches overhead, Baltic light filtering through. That's the particular kind of morning that Humlegården on Sundholmen delivers, almost every single day from late April through September. This is archipelago life as the Swedes have quietly perfected it over generations, and now it's available to international buyers ready to claim their piece of Roslagen. Sundholmen sits just off Håtö in the Norrtälje archipelago, roughly 90 kilometres north of Stockholm. The island is reached by private boat from the mainland parking area at Håtö — a crossing of only a few minutes, but one that instantly shifts the pace of everything. Your car stays behind. The noise stays behind. What you arrive to is a landscape of granite outcrops, mixed forest, meadow grass blowing in off the sea, and a community of summer cottages that has barely changed in feel since the mid-20th century. The property itself is called Humlegården — hops garden, in Swedish — and the name gives you a sense of its character. There's a generosity to the layout. The main house, built in 1987 and added to over the years, sits at the heart of roughly a third of an acre of garden that moves from mown lawn to wilder woodland without any hard edge between them. Two bedrooms, one bathroom, a kitchen-living room with an open fireplace and a secondary iron stove for the shoulder seasons. It's 55 square metres inside the main house — compact, honest, nothing wasted — but the real living space extends far beyond those walls. The deck alone changes the equation entirely.

Main house and deck

Stand in the kitchen on a September morning and count the apples on the Sörmlandsäpple tree through the window. They're nearly ready. The smell of woodsmoke drifts in from the whitewashed fireplace in the next room, and somewhere down the gravel path, Nyckelsjön is perfectly still. This is Tjärtorp — a two-bedroom timber house in the village of Ullevi, just outside Gnesta in Södermanland — and it has the kind of quiet intensity that makes people stop looking at other properties. The house is red-painted timber, classic Falun red, the colour that has marked Swedish rural buildings for centuries. Up close, the facade details reward attention — the kind of craftsmanship that doesn't come from a catalogue. Inside, the ceiling height surprises you. Wide wooden floors carry the patina of generations, the timber walls hold warmth even before the fire is lit, and exposed beams overhead remind you that this building was made to last. The large whitewashed fireplace anchors the main living space. It isn't decorative. On a dark November evening, it is the whole room. The renovation work done here is worth understanding properly, because it separates Tjärtorp from the majority of Swedish country homes on the market. The walls and woodwork are finished in linseed oil paint — breathable, traditional, and far kinder to old timber than modern synthetic alternatives. The wallpapers are from Lim & Handtryck, printed from historical originals dating to the 18th and 19th centuries. These are considered collector's items in some circles, and they're on your walls. At the same time, the house has been fully rewired, replumbed, reinsulated, and connected to fibre internet. A new roof is scheduled for 2025 to 2026. The windows were restored b ... click here to read more

Step outside on a July morning, coffee in hand, and the Baltic is already glittering below you. Seabirds circle above the rocky shoreline. The smell of warm pine from the sauna building still lingers from last night. This is Väbynäsvägen 15 — a two-bedroom summer cottage perched on an elevated lot in Väby, just outside Ronneby in the heart of Blekinge, Sweden's most underrated coastal region. The house itself is compact and honest. Built in 1978 and kept in genuinely good shape, the 43 square metres inside are arranged with the kind of practical intelligence that Scandinavian summer homes have always gotten right. Every room earns its place. The living room faces the sea and its large windows pull the view inside, filling the space with reflected light off the water from mid-morning onward. When the afternoon sun swings around, it catches the surface of the bay and the whole room shifts. You don't stop noticing it. The kitchen works. Nothing fancy, but it handles what a summer household needs — big family breakfasts, late dinners after a day out on the water, quick lunches before heading back down to the jetty. Two bedrooms are quiet and well-proportioned. One bathroom. The layout keeps things simple, which is exactly the point when you're spending most of your time outdoors anyway. And the outdoors here is the real argument for this property. The 1,092-square-metre lot is generous by any standard, terraced into the hillside with several distinct seating areas — one catches the morning sun, another faces west for the long Swedish summer evenings that don't end until past ten. Mature trees give shade without blocking the water view. The garden is tidy, planted with a mix of lawn and flowering shrubs that take care of t ... click here to read more

Picture this: it's six in the morning, the mist is still sitting on Lake Vänern, and you're standing on a west-facing terrace with a cup of coffee watching the water turn gold. No traffic noise. Just birdsong, the occasional creak of a wooden dock somewhere below, and the kind of quiet that takes a few days to fully sink into. That's what mornings feel like at Mellåsen 5. This is a proper Swedish countryside retreat — 75 square metres of well-kept living space on an elevated, private plot in Mellåsen, a small community just outside the town of Mariestad on the eastern shore of Lake Vänern. Sweden's largest lake, and Europe's third largest, Vänern isn't just a view — it's the reason people come to this part of Västergötland and keep coming back. The house itself is two bedrooms, one bathroom, and it's been cared for in a way that shows. The current owners have lived in it, not just visited it. The kitchen has a proper setup — stove, dishwasher, fridge-freezer, good storage — and it opens directly into a dining area where the west-facing window gives you an uninterrupted view of the water. On a clear July evening, when the sun doesn't set until nearly eleven, that window is the best seat in the house. The dining area flows out through the conservatory and onto the main terrace, so summer meals have a way of drifting outside without anyone consciously deciding to move. That 23-square-metre glazed conservatory is one of the property's most practical features, and it's genuinely useful beyond the summer months. Infrared heating panels extend comfortable use well into October, maybe November if you're not too precious about a sweater. Fully opening sliding doors mean it can be thrown open entirely in warm weather, and two a ... click here to read more

Wake up in the sleeping loft on a July morning and the east-facing gable window does the work for you — soft Scandinavian light spilling over wooden floors before the rest of the house stirs. Down in the kitchen, the old double door is already thrown open to the garden, and the smell of apple blossom drifts in from trees that have been growing here longer than most people can remember. This is Komstad, a quiet hamlet in the Österlen countryside of southeast Skåne, and life here moves at a pace that most of Europe has forgotten how to do. The cottage dates to the 1870s and wears its age well. Someone has taken genuine care with it — not the kind of renovation that strips a place of everything interesting, but the kind that keeps the open-beamed ceiling in the living room and the original soul of the layout while quietly upgrading what matters. There's underfloor practicality in the fully tiled bathroom, a shower behind a clean glass wall, and a washing machine tucked in beside it. The kitchen has integrated appliances, a dishwasher, an island that becomes the natural gathering point when friends arrive, and a wood-burning stove that earns its keep from October through to March. The Bang & Olufsen sound system wired into the living room is the one small luxury that doesn't apologize for itself — good music through good speakers, while the fireplace crackles and rain patters against the southwest-facing deck outside. That deck deserves its own mention. Glass doors open directly from the renovated west gable onto a broad wooden terrace that catches the afternoon and evening sun until the last possible moment. A pergola draped in white climbing roses frames the view over open agricultural fields — flat, wide Skåne landscape ... click here to read more

On a clear July morning at Solfältsvägen 2, the first thing you hear is water. Not traffic, not neighbors — water, and the occasional low horn of an Åland ferry carving its way through the Stockholm archipelago somewhere out beyond the treeline. You're sitting on a wide timber deck with coffee going cold in your hand because you keep getting distracted. That's Dyvik. It does that to people. This single-story country home sits on a genuinely generous 2,730-square-meter plot in Dyvik, within Österåkers kommun — one of the few remaining pockets of the Stockholm archipelago where you can still find a freehold property at a price that doesn't require a second mortgage on your first home. The house itself is compact at 25 square meters of living space, but the way it's been used is clever. A hallway that doubles as a sleeping nook, an open-plan kitchen and living room that draws light from multiple windows, and a ceiling that runs all the way up to the roof ridge — making the interior feel considerably larger than the floor plan suggests. The fireplace insert is the kind of feature that earns its keep in early September, when the Swedish archipelago does that particular trick of dropping ten degrees between lunchtime and sundown. Light it at six, and by the time dinner's ready the whole room has that amber, wood-smoke warmth that's basically impossible to replicate any other way. The kitchen runs alongside it — fridge, freezer, dishwasher, gas stove — plus a wood-burning stove that sits in the corner and makes the whole cooking experience feel like something out of a Carl Larsson painting, but without the inconvenience of living in one. Outside is where this property really opens up. The deck is large enough to hold a full ... click here to read more

Picture this: it's a Tuesday morning in late June, and you're sitting on the south-facing patio at Långedal 18 with a cup of coffee going cold because you keep getting distracted by the way the light moves across the granite outcrops in the distance. No agenda. The nearest sound is birdsong and, faintly, the buzz of a lawnmower two plots over. The Swedish west coast has this particular quality of stillness that people who've experienced it never stop talking about — and this property sits right inside it. Långedal 18 is a two-bedroom country home on a generous 1,981 square meter plot in Tanums kommun, roughly five and a half kilometers from the center of Fjällbacka. It's in good condition throughout and genuinely move-in ready, with a practical layout that makes sense for both short summer stays and longer stretches when you don't want to leave. The main house covers 86 square meters across three rooms and a kitchen — two proper bedrooms, an open living and dining space that pulls in light through wide windows, and a sleeping alcove off the living area that works brilliantly as overflow for guests, a reading corner, or a spot for kids who refuse to go to sleep before the midnight sun does. The kitchen flows naturally into the dining and living space, which is the right call for a property like this. Summer on the Bohuslän coast is social. People drift in and out, someone's always cooking, someone else is opening wine. You want a space that handles that without feeling cramped, and this one does. Outside is where Långedal 18 really earns its place. The plot is expansive by any standard — nearly 2,000 square meters of garden, with multiple patios positioned to catch the sun at different points through the day. Morning c ... click here to read more

Early July on Gränsö, and the morning light hits the water at an angle that makes the whole inlet look like it's been lit from below. You're standing on the front terrace with a coffee, the smell of pine resin drifting in from the trees behind the house, a pair of eider ducks cutting low across the channel. The only sound is wind. This is what you bought it for. Gränsö 44 is a complete Swedish archipelago holding — main house, guest cottage, outbuilding, boathouse, and a private jetty with servitude rights — sitting on just over 1,000 square metres of natural island land near Arkösund on the Vikbolandet peninsula. The main house went up in 2008, which means it was built with proper insulation and modern systems rather than cobbled together over generations like many island properties. Eighty-one square metres doesn't sound like much on paper, but the open-plan kitchen and living room layout makes the space feel generous, and the large windows along the front pull the outside in so consistently that the terrace feels like a fifth room. That terrace is south-facing and wide enough to actually do something on. Not a narrow ledge — a real outdoor living space, long enough for a table that seats eight, with partial water views through the trees. The glass door from the living room means summer evenings blur naturally between inside and out, the wood-burning stove providing the threshold between seasons when September rolls in and the air sharpens. Three bedrooms sleep the family comfortably, the guest cottage tacks on another four or five sleeping places for when friends inevitably want to come, and the small outbuilding handles storage and a composting separett toilet that keeps the main bathroom free during a full house. ... click here to read more

The smell hits you first. Salt air and sun-warmed pine needles, drifting through the kitchen window at eight in the morning while the coffee percolates and your kids are already somewhere in the garden, bare feet on grass. That's Sandslättsvägen 2 on a Tuesday in July. Nothing dramatic. Just the particular quiet that only comes when you're 600 meters from one of Sweden's finest stretches of coastline and you have nowhere urgent to be. Haverdal is not a place that tries too hard. It sits along the Halland coast between Halmstad and Mellbystrand, a low-key community of summer houses, cycling families, and people who have been coming back to this same beach every August for thirty years. The four-kilometer sandy shore here is the kind you walk at dusk when the crowds have thinned and the light goes sideways and golden across the dunes. Swimming, paddleboarding, building fires in designated spots on the sand — the rhythm of summer on this stretch of coast has barely changed in decades, and honestly that's the whole point. The cottage at Sandslättsvägen 2 was built in 1969 and it wears its era well. Fifty-five square meters of thoughtful, practical layout — a bright living room with windows that frame the garden like a painting, a functional kitchen set up exactly right for long summer dinners, and a bedroom that stays cool even on the warmest Halland afternoons. There's an additional ten square meters of auxiliary space, and a separate friggebod guest cabin sits in the garden, which means visiting family or friends get their own breathing room. It's the feature that turns a weekend visit into a proper stay. The lot is the other thing people notice. At 1,222 square meters, it's substantial for this area — a mature, private ... click here to read more

Step outside on a Tuesday morning in late August and the fields at Söderhenninge are gold-green and dead quiet, except for the crows working the far edge of the meadow and the faint clatter of a tractor somewhere over the ridge toward Edsbro. That's the sound of this place. Not silence exactly, but the particular hush of countryside that hasn't been touched up for anyone. This is a genuine Swedish farmstead — two residential houses, a cluster of solid outbuildings, and 6.3 hectares of mostly arable land sitting in Norrtälje municipality, about 90 minutes north of Stockholm by car. It's the kind of property that people in the city talk about wanting for years and rarely find at a price that makes actual sense. At 450,000 SEK for the full estate, the numbers are hard to argue with. The main house was built in 1936 and covers 99 square meters, with four rooms arranged in the unhurried way that rural Swedish builders favored — a real kitchen with room to cook properly, a living room that gets afternoon light, and bedrooms that feel like bedrooms rather than closets with aspirations. The windows are large, which matters here because what you're looking at through them changes week by week: snow-dusted fields in January, wildflowers pushing up along the fence lines in May, the low copper light of a Swedish autumn stretching across the paddocks in October. There's an additional 50 square meters of secondary living space in the main structure too, which gives you genuine flexibility for a home office, a mudroom setup, or just extra storage without crowding the main living areas. The second residential building is a real asset that most comparable properties don't offer. It functions independently, which means extended family ... click here to read more

Main house and outbuildings, Söderhenninge 5 och 3

On a still February morning at Matsbo 7, the only sounds are the creak of snow settling on the roof and, somewhere below the garden, the Ljusnan river threading quietly through the valley. You pull on your boots, step outside into minus-eight air that bites your cheeks in the best possible way, and you're at the trailhead in four minutes flat. This is Bruksvallarna — and once you've spent a winter here, you'll understand why Swedes return year after year with the kind of quiet loyalty that doesn't need explaining. Matsbo 7 sits on a 2,296 square metre plot on a calm residential street in the centre of the village. It's not a remote cabin requiring a four-wheel drive and three hours of mountain road — it's genuinely walkable to the ICA Stigmyrs grocery store, the village brasserie, a weaving studio, and the local hotel. That proximity matters more than it sounds. On a dark January afternoon when the temperature drops hard, being able to grab provisions on foot rather than scraping ice off a car is its own small luxury. The property is built in two connected sections, each with its own entrance, and this dual layout is the detail that makes it genuinely interesting for buyers. The newer wing, comprehensively updated in 2015, has the kind of open-plan arrangement that works for large family gatherings — a wide living room, a white kitchen with real storage space, a dining area that seats a crowd, and a bathroom with contemporary fittings. Two bunk beds and a double mean six people sleep here comfortably without anyone feeling crammed. The older section is a different mood entirely. Panel-clad walls, a proper open fireplace, and a sitting room that feels like it was built for long evenings with aquavit and card games. One ... click here to read more

The smell hits you first — cut grass warming in the late afternoon sun, woodsmoke drifting from somewhere across the fields, and the faint sweetness of the apple trees that line the far edge of the yard. Then you notice how quiet it actually is. Not the uncomfortable quiet of isolation, but the deep, settled quiet of a place that has been at peace with itself for over a hundred years. That's Fågelsta Stormbacken. A 1910 red-painted farmstead on the outer edge of Julita, Katrineholms kommun, sitting on 1.3 hectares of Swedish countryside with the kind of bones that modern houses simply can't replicate. The main house runs to 160 square metres across seven rooms, and it carries its age well. Wide wooden floors creak in exactly the right places. Original period doors still swing on their hinges. Three traditional tiled stoves — kakelugnar — stand in the sitting rooms and do what they've always done: turn a cold November evening into something you don't want to leave. The ceilings are high enough that the rooms never feel crowded even when the family descends in full. Large windows face the courtyard and the open fields beyond, pulling in light from morning through to the long Swedish summer evenings when dusk doesn't fall until nearly eleven o'clock. The kitchen is the heart of the place, as it should be. Country-style cabinetry, a serious amount of worktop space, and updated appliances sit alongside the original character of the room without any sense of awkward compromise. The dining area flows directly off it, which matters enormously when you're hosting — plates passing between rooms, conversation spilling between spaces. This is a kitchen designed for proper cooking, not just reheating. Think slow-braised elk from t ... click here to read more

Step off the gravel path at Gudbyvägen 36 on a June morning and what hits you first is the quiet. Not the absence of sound exactly — there's a woodpecker somewhere behind the tree line, and a neighbor's dog doing its rounds — but the kind of quiet that makes Stockholm feel like a different world, even though you're only 25 minutes up the E4. This is Gudby. A pocket of Upplands Väsby where the houses have proper gardens, where the roads still have names that predate the suburbs, and where 2,662 square meters of your own land means you can walk barefoot across your own grass without seeing a fence for a good while. The 1955 cottage sitting on that plot is small — 20 square meters of honest simplicity — but the land it stands on is where the real story lives. The cottage itself is functional and in good condition. One room, one bathroom, the basics done right. It's not trying to be anything it isn't, which is part of what makes it work so well as a summer retreat or a base while you figure out what comes next. And what comes next is the interesting part. Municipal water and sewage are already connected at the property boundary — costs already covered by the current owners — which removes one of the more tedious hurdles for anyone thinking about development. The plot is potentially divisible too, a detail that opens up a range of possibilities depending on what direction you want to take this. Many neighbors along Gudbyvägen have already done exactly that. Started with an older summer cottage, renovated or built alongside it, and ended up with a year-round home on a generous piece of land that would cost multiples to replicate closer to the city. That trajectory is visible in the streetscape here — you see the mix of orig ... click here to read more

Step outside on a July morning at Örviks byväg 18 and the air carries something particular — a mix of pine resin, cut grass, and the faint salt tang drifting in from the Baltic just 1.7 kilometres away. The southwest sun is already hitting the glazed conservatory. Coffee in hand, you watch a pair of cranes pick their way across the meadow. This is Roslagen in its quietest, most honest form. Not a postcard. The real thing. Herräng sits roughly 100 kilometres north of Stockholm along the Uppland coast, tucked into the northern reaches of the Roslagen archipelago — a region Swedes have been quietly keeping to themselves for generations. This particular property sits about 4 kilometres south of Herräng village proper, on a lane where the neighbours are mostly birch trees and the occasional tractor. The address, Örviks byväg 18, places you on the edge of the Örvikssjön lake, roughly 350 metres from the water's edge. On still evenings you can hear the lake. On windy ones, you can hear the sea. The main house is a 1.5-storey building measuring 130 square metres, in good condition and ready to move into without a renovation project hanging over your first summer. Ground floor has a proper layout for a family: a hallway that opens naturally into a generous living room, a kitchen that works, a bedroom, and a laundry room with WC. Upstairs, two more bedrooms and a bathroom share the space with a family room and, critically, a balcony with partial views over Örvikssjön. That balcony matters more than it sounds on paper — sitting up there as the light shifts over the water at 9pm in June, with the sky still pale gold, is one of those Swedish summer moments that makes people buy property in this country and never fully leave. The g ... click here to read more

Step outside on a January morning and the world is completely white and completely silent. The ski tracks cut through the snow maybe three hundred meters from the front door. You clip into your skis on the porch, push off, and within minutes you're gliding through birch forest with no one else in sight. That's a Tuesday here at Hagströmsvallen 105. This two-bedroom country home sits on a generous 3,500-square-meter lot on the slopes above Bruksvallarna in Härjedalen, one of Sweden's most celebrated mountain regions. At 61 square meters, the house is compact and honest—every square meter works. The open-plan living and kitchen area anchors the interior, with a wood-burning fireplace that earns its place on a cold March evening when the temperature outside drops to minus fifteen and the snow is still falling. Both bedrooms are quiet. The bathroom has a washing machine, which matters more than people think when you're spending a full week. And then there's the sauna, with its own small relaxation room—not a luxury addition but a genuine necessity up here, the place you end up after a long day on the trails with aching legs and cold feet. Outside, the lot is substantial. Mountain birches frame the property. In summer, the neighboring field fills with grazing cattle, and if you leave the kitchen window open you hear the bells. There's an outbuilding for storage, a woodshed stocked for winter, and a störrös—a traditional small cabin with an open hearth—that speaks directly to the older rhythms of this mountain landscape. Fäbodvallen culture, where highland summer farms dotted these slopes for centuries, left its mark on the architecture and atmosphere of this whole valley, and you feel it here. The Nordic ski tracks groomed ... click here to read more

Step outside on a Tuesday morning in early July, coffee in hand, and the Baltic is right there — glinting through the pine trunks, less than fifty meters from your front door. The air smells of salt and warm resin. A boat is heading out from the marina. Yours is tied up in your own private berth, waiting. This is what a morning at Havsvägen 32 looks like. Furuvik sits on a slender tongue of land along the Gävle coast, about 12 kilometers south of Gävle city center — far enough that the summer crowds haven't taken over, close enough that you're never truly cut off. It's the kind of spot that Swedes pass down through families rather than advertise. A quiet residential road, a handful of houses, and then the sea. Havsvägen is exactly what the name says: the sea road. The property itself occupies a remarkable 3,786 square meters of coastal land. That's not a typo. On this stretch of the Swedish coast, a plot this size with direct water proximity doesn't surface often. The main holiday house dates from 1950, built in the solid, unpretentious style of Swedish sommarstugor from that era — roughly 79 square meters across five rooms, sitting back from the lane with mature trees wrapping around it on three sides. It's in good condition, functional, and completely livable right now. But the real story here is what the land makes possible. Several smaller guest cottages dot the lot, handy for the extended family visits that inevitably happen the moment you own a place like this. Cousins from Gothenburg, friends from abroad — Swedish summer hospitality runs deep, and having a spare cabin means you never have to choose between hosting and having your own space. The whole compound has a slightly rambling, unhurried quality that feel ... click here to read more

Exterior view of the house and lot

Six o'clock on a July morning. You slide open the terrace door and the air hits you—cool, pine-scented, with that particular stillness that only comes from being a few steps from open water. Lake Mälaren stretches out in front of you, flat and silver, and somewhere down the path you can already hear the first swimmers of the day. That is the daily reality of waking up at Braxvägen 28 on Märsön island. This is a 55-square-metre holiday home on a 1,489-square-metre plot that punches well above its size. Built in 1972 and kept in genuinely good condition across the decades, it sits at an elevated position on the island's southern face—which means both the sun and the lake are almost always in your line of sight. The orientation is not an accident. Whoever chose this spot knew what they were doing. Inside, the living room is the centre of gravity. It's a proper gathering space, not a cramped afterthought, and it flows directly into a conservatory that acts as a kind of weather-proof buffer between indoors and the lake terrace beyond. On cooler evenings—and Swedish September evenings can be genuinely chilly—the wood-burning stove earns its place fast. The crackle of birch logs, a glass of something warm, the last of the light on the water. You'll understand quickly why Swedes take their fritidshus so seriously. The kitchen is compact but fully equipped: stove, fridge-freezer, and just enough room for a small table by the window where breakfast becomes a slow, deliberate event rather than a rushed ritual. Light walls and considered wallpaper keep the interiors feeling open despite the modest footprint. One bedroom, one bathroom with a shower and composting toilet—simple, functional, and exactly right for two people who came ... click here to read more

4-room Farm without agriculture on Frösundavägen 6, Håbo municipality

You wake up to the smell of pine resin warming in the morning sun, and the only sound is a woodpecker somewhere deep in the birch forest behind the cottage. No traffic. No sirens. Just the occasional clink of a coffee cup and the creak of an old wooden floor underfoot. This is Gottröra—a pocket of rural Uppland that most people drive straight past on their way to the coast, which is precisely why the people who find it never want to leave. Set along Vängsjöbergsvägen in the quiet community of Gottröra, about 20 kilometers inland from Norrtälje, this 1968-built country home sits high on its own plot—elevated enough to catch the light early, private enough that you'll forget neighbors exist. The 3,026-square-meter grounds unfold around a sheltered courtyard framed by the main house, a guest cottage, a sauna building, and several outbuildings. From above, it looks like a small Swedish farm that got quietly left behind by the twentieth century, and that's exactly the appeal. The main house is 64 square meters of honest, unfussy living space. Two bedrooms, a kitchen with a wood-burning stove big enough to heat the whole room in February, and a sitting room anchored by a proper fireplace. The layout was designed for people who actually use their homes—not for show. On a grey November afternoon, with a pot of elk stew on the stovetop and snow pressing against the single-pane kitchen window, this house delivers exactly what it promises: warmth, quiet, and the particular contentment that comes from being genuinely off the grid from city life. Summers here are something else entirely. Viksjön lake is a 550-meter walk down through the trees—a clean, cold Swedish lake where the swimming is good and the fishing is better. Pike and ... click here to read more

Picture yourself arriving at your Swedish vacation home on a crisp Friday evening, the scent of pine forests filling the air as you drive through Gottröra's winding country roads. The sun sets late over your 1,875-square-meter garden, casting golden light across the lawn where your family already plans tomorrow's outdoor adventures. This is the rhythm of life at your second home in Sweden—a place where Nordic simplicity meets nature's grandeur, just an hour from Stockholm's international pulse. This 62-square-meter house with separate guest cottage represents an exceptional entry point into Scandinavian vacation home ownership, offering the rare combination of year-round comfort and authentic countryside living at an accessible price point. Renovated to modern standards while preserving its 1965 character, the property serves as your personal gateway to Sweden's celebrated outdoor lifestyle and the nearby Stockholm Archipelago—30,000 islands where locals have spent summers for generations. The Swedish Vacation Home Experience begins with understanding what makes this corner of Uppland so magnetic for holiday homeowners. Gottröra sits in the municipality of Norrtälje, positioned perfectly between inland forests and coastal access points to the archipelago. This is genuine Swedish nature—not manicured or commercialized, but authentic wilderness where moose tracks appear on morning walks and mushroom foraging becomes a treasured autumn ritual. Your vacation home places you 850 meters from Vängsjön lake, where Swedes practice their beloved tradition of lakeside swimming regardless of season, followed by sauna sessions that define Nordic wellness culture. The main house embraces the Scandinavian design philosophy of functi ... click here to read more

There's a particular kind of quiet you notice first. Not silence exactly—more like the sound of a stream doing its thing just beyond the tree line, a woodpecker somewhere in the pines, and absolutely nothing else demanding your attention. That's what mornings feel like at this 1960s log cabin on Varledavägen, sitting on nearly eight thousand square meters of Swedish countryside outside the village of Rånäs in Norrtälje municipality. It's the kind of property that doesn't need to announce itself. Built in 1964 from traditional notched log construction, the cabin has the bones of something genuinely old and genuinely Swedish. At 33 square meters, it's compact and honest about what it is—a retreat, not a mansion. The living room holds a fireplace that has warmed countless winter evenings, and the kitchen runs on a wood-burning stove that makes coffee taste different somehow, better. There's a sleeping loft overhead, which is the kind of sleeping arrangement that turns adults back into children—you climb up, the ceiling is low, and the whole world outside goes quiet. Behind the loft, a concealed hatch opens into a large attic for storage, which any serious cabin owner will tell you is worth its weight in gold. The WC with a water toilet is functional and convenient for overnight stays and long summer weekends. The property is being sold with a disclaimer clause, so it's worth going in with clear eyes: the fireplaces haven't been recently inspected, and the water pump needs attention. For a buyer who wants a turnkey holiday home, this needs work. For a buyer who wants to spend a few weekends putting their own hands on something and end up with a property that feels truly theirs—this is exactly that kind of opportunity.
