This country home for sale in Axmar sits 300–400 metres from a sandy beach on the Gävleborg coast, on a 1,515 m² plot. It is a small, simple house of 65 m², built in 1986. You can leave the car in the drive and walk to the water with a towel over your shoulder. The asking price is 165,000 EUR. The house has three bedrooms and one bathroom, and the garden has mature trees and lawn. A well-known seaside restaurant is down the road. ### The House: Open Living Space and Three Small Bedrooms The layout is easy to read. The kitchen and living room share one open space, with large windows facing the garden. Light comes in from the greenery outside, and the kitchen has room for storage and for cooking with friends. It is a practical set-up for a holiday home, where meals tend to be long and nobody wants to be shut away in a separate room. There are three bedrooms, all on the small side. Think of them as places to sleep rather than to spend the day in. They suit children, guests or a mix of both, and small rooms are quick to clean when you only visit for a few weeks a year. The bathroom has a shower and a composting toilet. That keeps things simple and helps with running costs, but you should be comfortable with that arrangement before you buy. The house is in good condition, and the seller describes low annual operating costs. It is not a project. You could use it this summer and decide later what to change. ### The Plot: 1,515 m² of Garden Near the Sea The plot is the real luxury here, in the sense of space. At 1,515 m² there is room for vegetable beds, a game of badminton, a fire pit and a long table under the trees. The seller points to well-kept lawns and mature trees, which give the garden some privacy. If you want t ... click here to read more

65 m² Holiday Home at Bjurstigen 6 Axmar Gävle Municipality - Image 1

This country home for sale in Ingarö, Stockholm, sits on a 7,030 m² plot, a rare amount of land for a 1940s cottage so close to the archipelago. The house itself is small and easy to run: 35 m², one bedroom, one bathroom, and a garden that does most of the talking. It is a holiday home in the Stockholm archipelago for someone who wants space around them rather than space inside. Think of a Swedish summer cottage with room for a vegetable patch, fruit trees and a long lawn, all within reach of the capital. ### Country Home for Sale in Ingarö: The Cottage and Its 7,030 m² The cottage dates from the 1940s and follows the classic summer-house pattern: a compact footprint, with the living area, kitchen and dining space flowing into each other. Large windows bring in light and look out on the greenery around the house. The kitchen is compact, with the essential appliances and storage. The bedroom takes a double bed and some storage furniture, and the bathroom is modest but easy to reach from both the bedroom and the living room. The condition is good and the house is described as ready to use straight away. You could arrive on a Friday evening with a bag of groceries and be settled in before dark. Then there is the land. Just over 7,000 m² is a lot by Stockholm-area standards. Mature trees give shade and privacy, and there are open grassy areas where children can play or where you can set up a table for long summer dinners. If you want to grow your own vegetables or plant an orchard, the room is there. The plot may also leave scope to add a guest cottage, a sauna or a storage shed later, though anything like that depends on local planning rules and should be checked with Värmdö municipality before you count on it. ### Li ... click here to read more

35 m² Holiday Home on Enkärrsvägen 5 Ingarö Enkärret Värmdö municipality - image 1

This country home for sale in Oxelösund sits about 150 metres from Vivestabadet beach, with a 27 m² guest house on a 1,343 m² plot. It is a small place and doesn't pretend otherwise: a 1947 cottage of 32 m² with one bedroom, a living room, a kitchen and a glazed conservatory. What makes it work is everything around those walls: the garden, the deck, the second building and the short walk down to the Baltic. At 235,000 EUR it suits a buyer who wants a base on the Södermanland coast without taking on a big house. ### The Cottage and Its Conservatory The main house dates from 1947 and has the proportions of its era: compact, practical, easy to heat and easy to keep. Inside you get a living room with large windows facing the garden, an adjoining kitchen and a bedroom. The listing describes the condition as good, and the previous owners have updated it over the years rather than leaving it frozen in the forties. The glazed conservatory is the room you will probably use most. It gives you a seat outdoors on a grey day, with a coffee and a view of the trees. Next to it is an open wooden deck, which is where the barbecue goes once the evening sun arrives. The plot is elevated, so the afternoon and evening light reaches the terrace well. ### Guest House and Garden on 1,343 m² The separate guest house measures about 27 m² and has its own shower, toilet and a small kitchenette. That changes how a 32 m² cottage lives. Friends or grandparents get their own door and bathroom, and you keep your own space. If you ever wanted to let it to holiday guests, the building is already set up for it, though you should check local rules and registration requirements before counting on rental income. The garden is well kept and framed by mat ... click here to read more

Front view of the holiday home

This country home for sale in Östergötland sits on 5,613 m² near Gryt, with a stable, a paddock and a boat berth about 2 km away. The house stands on a rise above open farmland, so the view from the windows runs across fields instead of neighbouring roofs. It was built in 1940, has 145 m² of living space plus about 25 m² of secondary area, and is in good condition. Two bedrooms and one bathroom keep it easy to look after, which suits a second home in Sweden as well as a year-round base. ### The House and Its 5,613 m² Plot The living room has wooden floors and is large enough to hold both a sofa corner and a dining table. The kitchen is generously sized, with plenty of worktop and storage. That makes it a real working kitchen, not just a place to boil the kettle. Upstairs you find a family room with an open fireplace, the obvious spot for dark evenings, along with the two bedrooms and the bathroom. Outside, the garden is framed by greenery and open fields. There is room for vegetables, a lawn, a fire pit or all three, and nobody is looking over the fence. ### Stable, Barn and Paddock for Horses or Small-Scale Farming This is where the property stands apart from most house for sale in Sweden listings at this price. The stable has several stalls, a tack room and good storage. Next to the house is a fenced paddock. There is also an older barn with plenty of character, which could become a workshop, a studio or simply dry storage for machinery and hay. Several more outbuildings sit on the plot. If you want more grazing or a bit of cultivation, there is the possibility to lease additional land nearby. Ask about terms and availability before you plan numbers for animals. ### Boat Berth and the Swedish Archipelago A ber ... click here to read more

This country home for sale in Norrtälje sits on the island of Stomnarö with two houses, sea views and a boat mooring just 125 metres from the door. The plot covers 2,222 m² of garden and natural landscape. The idea is simple: the timber main house for the family, the guest house with its own sauna for everyone else. At €289,500 and in good condition, it is a practical way into a holiday home in the Stockholm archipelago. ### The Main House: Timber, Fireplace and South-Facing Terrace The main house dates from 1985 and has 58 m² of timber-built living space. Three bedrooms fit inside that footprint, so expect a cabin-style layout: compact, sensible, made for summers when every bed is taken. The living room has a fireplace, which means a cool evening in May or September is something to enjoy rather than avoid. There is a kitchen for everyday cooking and a washroom with a sink. From the living room you step straight onto a south-facing terrace. This is where the morning coffee goes, and later the long dinners when the light stays late. The seller describes the house as suitable for year-round use thanks to its solid construction. As with any island home, check heating, water and winter access in detail when you view it. ### Guest House with Sauna and Sleeping Loft The second building is a 38 m² guest house with an open-plan living area, a kitchen, a shower and a sauna. Above it is a large sleeping loft with room for several guests. It has its own south-facing terrace too, so visitors are not sitting on top of the main house. That separation is the real strength of the layout. Teenagers can claim the loft for the summer, friends can stay a week without anyone feeling crowded, and two generations can share the plot with ... click here to read more

Main house and garden view

This country home for sale in Hallstavik gives you 83 m² and three bedrooms on a 2,094 m² plot, with meadow views and a southwest-facing terrace. The house stands on a gentle rise north of Stockholm, in the Vidö area of Roslagen. It has a wood-burning stove, two heat pumps and a garden that is easy to keep. The asking price is €99,500, which is a modest entry point for a second home in Sweden within reach of the capital. One thing to know from the start: the sewage system is under a municipal injunction and has to be dealt with. More on that below. ### The House and Its 2,094 m² Plot Inside, 83 m² are divided into four rooms plus a kitchen, three of them bedrooms. There is one bathroom. The living room is the social centre, and its wood-burning stove is what you will want on a November evening. From here a door leads to the terrace, which faces southwest, so the sun stays late on summer nights. Past the railing the view runs across open meadows. The house is in good condition. Two air-to-air heat pumps handle heating, and the water supply runs year-round with a flush toilet, so the house is not limited to the summer season. Outside, the plot is large enough for a vegetable patch, a flower bed or a play area, and the garden is described as low-maintenance. A storage building and a small carport are already on the land. The elevated position means the house catches daylight from morning until evening. ### Sewage and Sale Terms: What to Check First The municipality has issued an injunction on the sewage system, and the new owner will need to upgrade or replace it. Ask for the injunction documents and get a quote from a local installer before you bid, so you can put a real figure on the work. The house is also sold wi ... click here to read more

This country home for sale in Södertälje sits on a 1,502 m² Lake Mälaren plot with a winterized cottage and a building permit for a villa. The cottage is small, 20 m² with one bedroom and one bathroom, so think of it as a starting point. Use it this summer, then decide whether to keep it as it is or carry the permit forward and build. The asking price is 285,000 EUR. ### The Cottage and the 1,502 m² Plot The cottage is winterized, so it is not limited to July and August. For a second home in Sweden that matters. Lake weekends here can run well into autumn, and a cold, clear January morning by the water is part of the appeal. The listing describes the condition as good. At 20 m² you get a compact base with one bedroom and one bathroom, and the real space is outside. The plot is generous for a lakeside lot near a city of this size. It has several flat areas, which is useful whether you want a lawn, a terrace for long dinners, a vegetable bed or a play area. Flat ground is also what you want if you plan to build. A driveway and exit give access to the property in all seasons, so you are not carrying groceries down a path in February. ### The Building Permit for a Villa This is what sets the property apart from other holiday homes near Stockholm. The current owner has already obtained a building permit for a villa. The start notice (the formal go-ahead before construction begins) has not been issued yet, so the next owner would pick up the process from there. The technical documentation needed for the start notice is already prepared, which should save a good deal of paperwork. The plot is also covered by a local development plan, and the documentation is available. The property is classified as a Småhusenhet (small ho ... click here to read more

Lake view and cottage exterior

This country home for sale in Pålsboda sits on 9,548 m² close to Lake Sottern, with a separate guest house and a hot tub in the garden. It is a small house on a big piece of land, and that is the point. The main building is 50 m² with one bedroom, so most of the living happens outside: on the patio, across the lawns, down at the water. The property lies in Örebro County in central Sweden, within Hallsberg municipality, in a quiet spot surrounded by forest and fields. ### The House, the Guest House and the Garden The main house was built in 1978 and is in good condition. Inside you get a kitchen, a living room, one bedroom and one bathroom. The living room has large windows facing the greenery, so even a short stay feels spent outdoors. Everything is on a modest scale and easy to run, which suits a holiday home that stands empty for part of the year. Outside, a patio is the natural spot for summer dinners, and the hot tub stands in the garden for evenings when the air cools down. A separate guest house on the grounds gives visitors their own place to sleep, so family and friends do not have to share your single bedroom. Mature trees and planted beds give shade and privacy, and the broad lawns leave room for games, a vegetable patch or simply a lot of mowing. ### A Plot of Nearly One Hectare The land is registered as two parcels. The developed one, Käfsterud 1:15, covers 6,790 m² and holds the house and its outbuildings. Käfsterud 1:17 adds 2,758 m² of undeveloped land, bringing the total to 9,548 m². That second parcel is useful as a buffer of open space. If you ever think about building on it, check with Hallsberg municipality first, since rules vary from plot to plot. ### Lake Sottern: Boat Dock and Swimming Pier ... click here to read more

This country home for sale in Örebro is an off-grid forest cottage on a 1,000 m² leasehold plot, with a glazed veranda and a berry garden. It is small and simple on purpose: 22 m² of living space, no electricity, no running water, and woodland all around. If you want a place where the evening is set by daylight instead of a screen, this delivers it. The condition is good, and the outbuildings you need are already on the plot. ### Country Home for Sale in Örebro: The Cottage and Its Glazed Veranda Inside, the main room is open and flexible. You decide whether it works as a sleeping corner, a dining table or a place to sit with a book. At 22 m², it rewards people who travel light and enjoy a bit of order. The glazed veranda is what makes the cottage livable for much of the year. It gives you a sheltered spot for meals and morning coffee, with the forest right there on the other side of the glass. When the weather turns, you can stay outside without really being outside. A woodshed stands on the plot, so ask the agent how the cottage is heated and what it is like in the colder months. ### The 1,000 m² Leasehold Plot and Outbuildings The garden is established and has a good selection of berry bushes. Summer and late summer mean picking your own fruit on the way to breakfast. Mature woodland surrounds the plot, which gives it privacy and a green backdrop. Four practical extras come with it. There is a woodshed for firewood, a separate storage building for tools and gear, a Separett composting toilet, and a small earth cellar for keeping food cool the traditional way. The plot is leasehold, so the land is not part of what you own. Before you commit, ask for the lease term, the annual fee and the renewal conditions, and ... click here to read more

The boat engine cuts out and suddenly the only sounds are water against the hull and wind moving through the pines. That's your first moment on Bryggholmen — and it's the moment most people understand exactly why they came. Hofmans väg 12 sits on this car-free island outside Enköping in central Sweden, reachable only by boat, and that small logistical fact changes everything about how life feels here. Sweden has thousands of summer cottages, but Bryggholmen is genuinely different. The island's boat-only access isn't an inconvenience — it's the whole point. No through traffic, no noise from the road, no sense that the outside world can find you unless you let it. Families have been coming here for generations to do very little very deliberately: swim before breakfast, take the boat out in the afternoon, eat too much, sleep deeply. This is the culture of the Swedish sommarstuga — the summer house — taken to its most committed form. The house itself covers 81 square metres across three bedrooms and one bathroom, a size that encourages exactly the kind of togetherness that makes summer memorable. The open kitchen and living area forms the social engine of the property. A kitchen island anchors the space — practical for cooking, but equally good as a place to lean against with a cup of coffee while someone else fries herrings and a third person deals the cards. Large windows pull the surrounding greenery right up to the glass. On bright June evenings, when the Swedish sky stays light until nearly eleven, the room fills with a soft gold that you can't manufacture and won't forget. The three bedrooms are distributed sensibly. One larger room handles a proper double bed with room to spare; the two smaller rooms work beautiful ... click here to read more

Stand on the small porch at Messlingen Backen 506 on a July morning and what you get is this: the glassy surface of Lake Messlingen reflecting the ridgeline back at itself, the smell of birch sap and wet meadow grass, the distant call of a loon somewhere upstream. Nothing else. No traffic, no sirens. Just the particular silence that only the Swedish mountains produce, the kind that actually has texture to it. This two-bedroom country cabin sits on 703 square meters of land in Messlingen, a quiet hamlet within Härjedalens kommun in the highlands of Jämtland County, roughly 15 kilometres from the Funäsfjällen ski area. At 53 square metres, it's not a big house. But it doesn't need to be. The whole point here is that your living room extends several thousand metres in every direction. The cabin is in good overall condition, with a practical layout that flows from the entrance hallway through to the kitchen and into the main living area. Large windows frame the lake and the mountains behind it — on clear days in late autumn, when the birch trees have dropped their leaves, you can see clear across to the Norwegian fells on the horizon. The kitchen has enough counter space for real cooking, not just weekend survival meals, and the dining area fits comfortably around a table where four people can sit without elbowing each other. Two small bedrooms provide private space for rest, and the bathroom is functional and well-placed. One practical matter worth knowing upfront: the property currently lacks potable water and will require a new well to be drilled. This is a straightforward process in the area and common with older Swedish mountain properties — several local contractors in Sveg and Funäsdalen handle this routinely. It do ... click here to read more

Early on a July morning in Finnforsby, the light arrives before six. Not the harsh kind—the soft, Nordic kind that turns the water copper and makes the birch trees glow along the shoreline. You walk out through the veranda door, coffee in hand, and the jetty is right there. Twenty steps from the kitchen, planks still cool underfoot, and the river is absolutely still. That's the rhythm this place runs on. Finnforsby 67 sits in a quiet pocket of northern Sweden, about 35 kilometres from central Skellefteå along the E4—a drive that takes you through dense boreal forest, past reindeer grazing fields, and alongside the Skellefteå River. The village of Finnfors itself is the kind of place that doesn't make noise about itself. No tourist infrastructure, no overpriced cafés. Just water, trees, and a handful of red wooden houses that have been here long enough to belong. The property anchors itself to the water's edge on a 1,673-square-metre plot. The classic Falun-red buildings—main cottage and a cluster of outbuildings—sit against the green of the surrounding landscape in that way that feels almost compositionally correct, like someone planned it but nature finished the job. The private jetty juts out directly from the land, giving the property its defining feature: immediate, unmediated access to the river for swimming, rowing, fishing, or just sitting with your feet dangling and watching pike move through the shallows. Inside, the main cottage runs to 60 square metres, which is compact but genuinely liveable. The layout is sensible—a well-equipped kitchen that opens toward the dining area, comfortable social spaces, two bedrooms with enough room for a family or two couples travelling together. There's a fireplace in good s ... click here to read more

Main house and garden view

Close your eyes and picture a Sunday morning in early June: the window above the kitchen sink is propped open, and the only sounds reaching you are a woodpecker working through a birch trunk somewhere behind the meadow and the distant, unhurried bells of a village church carried on a westerly breeze. That's the daily reality at Rönö Uppsalatorp, a two-bedroom country home on Vikbolandet peninsula that has been quietly standing its ground since 1909. This is Östergötland at its most honest — no tourist traps, no manufactured charm, just a wide-open plot of 6,644 square metres where the grass grows thick in spring and the birch trees turn a hard, clean gold in October. The property sits in Norrköpings kommun, roughly 35 kilometres southeast of Norrköping city centre, on a peninsula that locals have been retreating to for generations without making too much noise about it. For good reason — they'd like to keep it that way. The main house covers 70 square metres across three rooms, and the proportions feel right. It's not oversized, not squeezed. The living room gets afternoon sun through large windows that look out over the garden, and in winter those same windows frame a landscape that turns monochrome and cinematic — frozen ground, bare trees, pale sky. The kitchen has enough working space that you can actually cook in it, which matters when you're making gravlax from scratch or simmering a pot of rotmos on a grey November afternoon. Original details from the early 1900s surface throughout: in the way the walls sit, in the feel of the older joinery, in small things that remind you this house has a history longer than any single owner. Two bedrooms handle sleeping arrangements without fuss. They're quiet rooms — genuine ... click here to read more

Exterior view of the main house and garden

Step outside on a July morning and you can already smell the salt before you see the water. From the elevated plot at Norra Starrkärr 215, the Swedish west coast spreads out below you — granite outcrops, pine ridges, and somewhere beyond the tree line, the glittering edge of the Bohuslän archipelago. The ferry horn from the Orust crossing drifts up on the breeze. That crossing is three minutes away by car. The sea itself is 500 meters down the path. This is a small place in the best possible sense. Twenty square meters, built in 1940, the kind of compact Swedish summer cabin that generations of families have used as a launchpad for long days rather than a place to stay indoors. A single-room layout with space for sleeping, a kitchenette, and a sitting area where the large windows do most of the heavy lifting — framing a view that a much grander property would envy. It's move-in ready and genuinely functional as a vacation home right now, today, without a renovation project standing between you and your first summer on the west coast. But what gives this particular plot its edge isn't the cabin. It's the building permit already in place for an additional house of approximately 59 square meters. That's rare. Planning permissions along the Swedish west coast, especially within reach of the water, have become harder to secure as coastal protection regulations have tightened over the years. Someone has already done that work here. You're buying a 20-square-meter retreat with an 849-square-meter plot and a legal pathway to build something substantially larger — whether that means a proper year-round home, a second cabin for family or rental guests, or a studio workshop beside the original cottage. The infrastructure is alre ... click here to read more

Step outside on a January morning in Kringelfjorden and the silence hits you first. Not the absence of sound exactly, but something richer — the muffled hush of fresh snow on spruce branches, the distant crack of ice on the lake, the faint smell of woodsmoke drifting from your own chimney. That's the daily reality of owning this two-bedroom country home on Byggningvägen in Särna, where the Swedish wilderness isn't a backdrop — it's the whole point. Situated on a generous 1,125 square metre plot in Älvdalens kommun, Dalarna County, this 59-square-metre home punches well above its size. Built in 1985 and kept in good condition throughout, it was given a proper kitchen refresh in 2023. New cabinetry, quality appliances, real counter space — the kind of update that makes you actually want to cook, not just heat things up. The open layout means whoever's at the stove stays in the conversation, which matters when you've got family spread across the living area after a long day out on the trails. The living room earns its keep. Large windows frame the tree line directly, so on grey November afternoons the forest comes right into the room with you. Come July, the same view is all green and gold light until nearly midnight — Dalarna sits far enough north that summer evenings go on and on. Two bedrooms handle a family comfortably; both are quiet, with the kind of dark that actually lets you sleep. One bathroom keeps things simple. That's the whole house, and it's enough. The design is about efficiency, not excess. What makes this property genuinely interesting is everything outside the main structure. The private sauna is the social heart of the place — a proper Swedish bastu, heated with wood, where the ritual of warming up, s ... click here to read more

Exterior view of the holiday home

Step outside on a Tuesday morning in late June and the only sounds are a woodpecker working through a birch trunk somewhere behind the garden, and the faint lap of Lake Bolmen against the reeds a short walk down the track. No traffic. No neighbors visible. Just 2,899 square meters of your own grass, trees, and sky on one of Småland's most sought-after island retreats — and a house that was actually built for year-round living. Bolmsö is a proper island, connected to the mainland by a single bridge over Lake Bolmen, and that bridge does something psychological the moment you cross it. The pace drops. The shoulders drop with it. The lake itself is Sweden's fifth largest, stretching across parts of both Kronoberg and Jönköping counties, and Bolmsö sits right in the middle of it — surrounded by some of the clearest freshwater you'll find anywhere in southern Sweden. The house dates to 2015, which matters more than it might sound. You're not buying someone else's 1970s renovation project with surprises inside the walls. The construction meets contemporary Swedish energy standards, heating costs stay manageable through the long winters, and nothing needs urgent attention when you arrive for your first weekend. Move in, light the fireplace, open the wine. That fireplace, positioned in the open living and dining area, earns its place on every trip from October through April. The floor plan flows openly from the kitchen — centered on a practical island that makes cooking for eight people actually pleasant — through the dining space and into the sitting area without any awkward corridors breaking the momentum. Three separate doors lead directly from these living spaces out to the garden, so on warm July evenings the line betwee ... click here to read more

Exterior view of the house and garden

Step outside on a July morning and the air smells of warm grass and lilac. The old barn casts a long shadow across the pasture, swallows dart in and out of the hayloft, and somewhere behind the wooded grove, a woodpecker is hard at work. This is Skrinningarud 3 — a 1909 country home sitting on 1.9 hectares of gathered land in the Töreboda countryside of Västra Götaland, Sweden. It's the kind of place that makes you wonder why you ever needed a city. The house itself has been through a serious renovation cycle between 2020 and 2026, so the bones are old and the surfaces are fresh. Walking through the front door, you get 110 square meters of living space that feels both rooted in its era and completely livable right now. The tiled stove in the living area is original and fully functional — come November, when the birch trees drop their last leaves and the ground hardens overnight, that stove earns its keep. Light comes easily through the windows; the elevated position of the house means you catch the morning sun early and hold it late into those famously long Swedish summer evenings. Two bedrooms, one bathroom, four rooms total. It's not a sprawling manor — it's the right size for a couple, a small family, or anyone who wants a second home in Sweden without the upkeep burden of something twice as large. The secondary area adds another 20 square meters, useful as a mudroom, a studio corner, or a practical transition space between outdoors and in, which matters when you've been out foraging chanterelles in wet grass. Water comes from a drilled well, and the waste system is a modern three-chamber septic setup — both practical details that matter enormously for a rural property, and both already sorted. For international bu ... click here to read more

Step outside on a July morning and the air smells of pine resin and wet grass. The fields to the south catch the light first — that low, golden Värmland light that Swedes write poems about — and somewhere in the tree line a woodpecker is already at work. This is Ingrirud Hagalund, a small farmstead in Säffle municipality, and mornings here feel genuinely earned. At just over five hectares, the property is large enough to give you real breathing room without becoming a full-time project. Roughly four hectares are forested — a mix of spruce and pine that wraps around the northern and western sides of the plot, providing wind shelter in winter and shade in high summer. The remaining land is close to a hectare of open arable field, flat and south-facing, catching maximum sun from May through September. That field alone opens up a lot of possibilities: a kitchen garden, a wildflower meadow, a small orchard, or simply a long green view from the kitchen window. The cottage itself is 62 square metres, painted the deep Falun red that marks farmhouses across central Sweden. It's been renovated steadily and thoughtfully over the years — not gutted and flipped, but cared for by people who actually used it. The result is a home that functions well without feeling like a showroom. The layout is compact and efficient: a practical kitchen, a comfortable living room with a wood-burning stove that becomes the undisputed centre of the house from October onwards, one bedroom with quiet views over the property, and a modern bathroom. The windows face south and west, which means natural light fills the main rooms through most of the day. In a Swedish summer, when the sun barely sets, that matters more than any lighting fixture. There's als ... click here to read more

The coffee tastes better on this terrace. Something about the birch trees filtering the early morning light, the faint smell of salt air drifting up from Herräng's rocky shore just around the corner, the silence that isn't really silence at all — it's wood pigeons, rustling leaves, the occasional distant outboard motor. You're 350 meters from the sea. It feels like another world entirely. Råvikskroken 1 sits on a generous 2,156-square-meter plot in one of the most quietly coveted pockets of the Stockholm Archipelago. Herräng is not one of those over-photographed Swedish villages that ends up on every travel blog. It's known among those who know — jazz musicians, archipelago regulars, Stockholm families who discovered it decades ago and have been coming back every June since. The Herräng Dance Camp, one of the world's most famous swing jazz festivals, has called this village home for over 40 years. In summer, the sound of live brass carries on the wind and the village takes on a warm, international energy before settling back into its natural quiet. If you want the untouched archipelago without the weekend crowds of Vaxholm or Grisslehamn, Herräng is exactly where you end up. The house itself was built in 1978 and has been kept in good condition — this isn't a renovation project, it's a property you can start enjoying immediately. At 78 square meters across two bedrooms and one bathroom, the layout is compact but genuinely livable, the kind of floor plan that feels right rather than just adequate. The living and dining area opens up around a fireplace that earns its keep every single autumn weekend, when the evenings drop fast and the archipelago turns copper and rust. Large windows pull in the garden and the surroundin ... click here to read more

On a still July morning in Herräng, you crack the upstairs balcony door and the air comes in cool and pine-sharp, carrying the faint sound of someone rowing out past the rocks below. The apple trees in the garden are heavy. Coffee is already on. This is what owning a second home in Roslagen actually feels like — and Norra Kallbodavägen 82 is one of those rare finds that delivers it without compromise. Built in 1930 and thoroughly renovated to a standard that leaves nothing to the imagination, this two-bedroom country home sits on a private, elevated plot of 3,841 square meters in Bredsund, just outside Herräng village. The renovation was not cosmetic. Everything was addressed: roof, façade, electrical systems, plumbing, bathroom, kitchen, and interior surfaces. What remains is the original soul of a Swedish country house — its proportions, its timber character, its relationship to the land — now wrapped in a level of comfort you can move into without a single weekend of DIY. The kitchen was finished in a soft sage green and has real workspace, not just the illusion of it. There's room for a proper dining table, which matters when you're feeding guests after a long day on the water. The bathroom next door is fully tiled, fitted with a shower, and plumbed for a washing machine — practical details that international owners especially appreciate. Upstairs, the house opens into a central living area that connects the two bedrooms, both capable of fitting double beds, with a wood-burning stove anchoring the whole floor. On cold October weekends, when the birch trees outside turn and the archipelago empties out, that stove earns its place. The balcony off the upper level faces the sun through most of the day. In June, that m ... click here to read more

Front view of the cottage

This country home for sale in Herräng, Roslagen, comes with about 3 hectares, a 60 m² guest house and farm buildings 1.6 km from the sea. Most second homes in Sweden give you a lawn and a view of the neighbour's fence. This one gives you 30,944 m² of land: roughly two hectares of forest and one of arable field. Lake Blåkaren is 700 metres away, with fishing rights, and the coast is under two kilometres off. It suits a family that wants to grow its own food, keep a few animals or run a small business from home, and it is listed at 359,500 EUR. ### The Main House and the Guest House The main house is a 1.5-storey home with 122 m² of living area in good condition. The ground floor is laid out simply: an open-plan kitchen and living room, two bedrooms, a bathroom and a small room that works as an office or workshop. Upstairs there are two insulated attic spaces. They are not finished as living space today, but they give you room to add bedrooms later without extending the footprint. The practical side has been looked after. An approved sewage system was installed in 2012, and the water pipes are new, both inside the house and outside from the pump house. For a second home that you want to open up in March and still use in November, that matters more than a fresh coat of paint. Next to the house stands a guest house of about 60 m², suitable for year-round use. It has its own kitchen, bathroom, living room and two bedrooms. Friends can stay without sharing a bathroom queue, or you can let it out. There is also a small guest cottage on the plot for extra beds in summer. ### Land, Orchard and Outbuildings The current owners mainly used the land for cultivation, aiming at self-sufficiency. A fruit orchard is under way with ... click here to read more

Main house and grounds

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.

Picture this: it's a Tuesday morning in late June, the kind where the Baltic light hits the water at a low angle and turns everything gold. You've walked four minutes from your front door, untied your boat from your own private mooring, and you're out on the Åland Sea before the rest of the world has poured its first coffee. That's not a fantasy — that's a Tuesday at Havsvägen 17. Set in Hammarskogen, a tight-knit coastal community along Roslagen's famously rugged shoreline in Norrtälje municipality, this three-bedroom holiday home sits on a genuinely generous 2,003 square metre plot. It's the kind of property that feels increasingly rare along this stretch of the Swedish coast: fully winterized, move-in ready, with its own guest house, a terrace that runs almost the full length of the building, and direct access to a shared marina where your boat mooring comes with the house. Not rented. Not shared. Yours. The main house, built in 1991 and maintained in solid condition throughout, is laid out on a single level — practical for families with young kids or guests who don't want to navigate a Swedish staircase at midnight. Step inside and you get a welcoming hallway, three proper bedrooms, and a bathroom done in a clean, unfussy colour palette that doesn't scream "1990s summer cabin." The open kitchen and living room flow into each other in a way that makes the 74 square metres feel lived-in rather than cramped. On long evenings when you've pulled mackerel or perch from the water and want to cook while still being in the conversation, this layout earns its keep. What sets this property apart from the average Roslagen stuga is the infrastructure. Air-source heat pump. Vacuum toilet connected to the community sewage system ... click here to read more

Step outside on a July morning and the pine trees are already warm. The air smells like resin and salt — that particular mix you only get this close to the Swedish coast — and the path down to the water is a four-minute walk through the kind of quiet that cities cannot manufacture. This is Hammarskogsvägen 25 in Hammarskogen, a well-kept Swedish country home sitting on a generous 1,943 square metre plot in Norrtälje municipality, about 115 kilometres north of Stockholm. At 249,500 SEK, it is one of the more accessible entry points into the Swedish second home market. But the price is almost beside the point once you've spent a weekend here. The house itself was built in 1982, covers 70 square metres across two bedrooms and one bathroom, and carries its age well. The layout is honest and unpretentious — a living room with windows that pull in the afternoon light from the west, an open connection through to the kitchen that makes cooking feel like part of the social fabric of the home rather than a chore done in isolation. The kitchen has been updated with functional modern appliances and storage that actually works. Nothing about this space is overworked or fussy. It does what a Swedish summer house should do: it gets out of the way and lets the outdoors in. The master bedroom fits a double bed with room to spare. The second bedroom is versatile — it has served as a children's room, a reading room, a space for visiting friends — and there is something satisfying about a room that doesn't insist on being one thing. The bathroom is clean and practical, with a shower, toilet, and sink. Not glamorous. Perfectly sufficient. What really sets this property apart is the land. Nearly 2,000 square metres in Hammarskogen, dotted ... click here to read more
