Description
Nestled somewhere within the charming community of Vestfossen is a delightful chalet waiting to be discovered. Located at Markenrudveien 91, this cozy two-bedroom retreat offers a unique slice of tranquility, ideal for overseas buyers or expats seeking a genuine escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Despite its serene position, there's much to see and do, and it's far from isolated or out on a limb.
This chalet, set on 850 square meters of self-owned land, boasts a commendable blend of comfort and rustic atmosphere. It offers an intimate environment where you can unwind and embrace a slower pace of life. It's no mansion, coming in at 35 square meters, but that's all part of the charm and coziness of this space.
Relatively updated in 2018, renovations to the chalet have thoughtfully married contemporary amenities with the warm atmosphere you’d expect in such a retreat. This cabin features two bedrooms, providing ample space for a family looking to create those life's moments or perhaps for guests who like a touch of adventure in their stay. Although the size suggests it’s compact, the clever use of space makes it feel far from confined.
One standout feature of this property is its 20-meter shoreline facing the serene waters of Eikern lake. Here, mornings can be spent sipping coffee by the water, afternoons fishing in one of Norway's cleanest lakes, or evenings star-gazing from your boat dock. The absence of a traditional bathroom setup may require a touch of improvisation, though many find it only adds to the authenticity of lakeside living.

- Two cozy bedrooms
- Annex for storage

While Vestfossen itself is a village full of charm, being close to natural attractions adds further appeal. For those who adore the great outdoors, a remarkable network of hiking trails meanders through the area. Each walk presents opportunities for photography enthusiasts or explorers eager to soak up the splendor of Norway's evocative landscapes. On weekends, or when fancy takes, excursions to the nearby forests offer moments of solitude or fantastic family picnics.
Recreationally, Vestfossen isn’t shy on opportunities. Once known as a hub for the paper industry, the area has similarly embraced culture and art, with several galleries and cultural spaces. The Vestfossen Kunstlaboratorium is one of the country’s foremost contemporary art institutions. It's a must-visit for art lovers or those just curious about the local cultural scene.
Living here year-round means you'd become part of a community that values simplicity and the beauty of nature. The climate in Vestfossen is typical of Southeastern Norway, with mild, temperate summers that invite you to make the most of outdoor activities, and winters that transform the landscape into a snowy playground, perfect for cosying up by a fire after a day of snowshoeing.
Finally, the opportunity to own a chalet by Eikern is as delightful as it sounds. It offers you a retreat, an escape, a home away from home. It's tranquil, but not isolationist. Minimalist yet purposeful. If you’ve ever dreamt of relaxing by a pristine lake in a setting that whispers tales of nature, then perhaps the Markenrudveien 91 chalet is calling your name. It’s a chance to immerse in a lifestyle that treasures the peaceful mind, the active body, and the curious soul.
No promises of glamour; just pure, simple enjoyment.
