Quaint Swedish Retreat with Sauna & Cozy Fireplace in Sundänge's Scenic Landscape – Perfect for a Tranquil Getaway

Stand at the kitchen window on a July morning and watch mist lift off the river in slow, unhurried curls. That's the kind of quiet this place offers — not the performed quiet of a spa, but the real, deep stillness of northern Sweden, where the only soundtrack is birdsong, moving water, and the occasional rustle of a reindeer picking through the treeline. This one-bedroom country cottage in Korsträsk, set on a generous 4,037-square-metre plot along the river's edge, is the kind of find that doesn't come along often in Norrbotten County. Korsträsk itself is a small, unhurried village about 20 kilometres from the town of Älvsbyn, sitting in a landscape shaped by glaciers, pine forests, and the kind of light that photographers chase from across Europe. In midsummer, the sun barely sets. By late August, the skies turn theatrical — deep violet streaks giving way to the first hints of aurora. In February, you can cross-country ski straight from the property boundary and follow forest tracks for hours without crossing a road. This is that kind of place. The cottage sits right beside the river, and roughly 350 metres separates you from the shores of Stor-Korsträsket, one of the larger lakes in the municipality. Walk down in the evening with a rod and you're pulling perch and pike from water that feels like it belongs to you alone. In summer, the lake is warm enough to swim — Swedes are not precious about cold water, and after a few days here, neither will you be. Canoe hire is easy to arrange in Älvsbyn, and paddling the connected waterways for an afternoon gives you a view of this landscape that no road can match. The house itself is 75 square metres, solid in structure, and honest about what it is: an older Swedish cottage w ... click here to read more

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

Step inside on a cool June morning and you'll hear it before you see it: the low creak of hand-hewn timber walls adjusting to the day's warmth, the faint scent of linseed oil paint that has soaked into every surface for over a century. Outside, the birch trees lining Skärklacken's lane are in full leaf, and somewhere down the track, a neighbour's cowbell carries across the meadow. This is not a renovated-to-within-an-inch-of-its-life weekend escape. This is the real thing. Skärklacken has been documented since 1664, when it operated as a traditional Swedish fäbod — a seasonal mountain pasture where farming families would move their livestock each summer. By the early 1900s, 22 farms clustered here and some 250 cows grazed the surrounding meadows. When the railway pushed through the Dalälven valley, the settlement transformed quietly into a small workers' community, complete with its own shop. The timber cottages that housed those railway families are still standing. This is one of them. The building itself is a two-storey log structure, and whoever has cared for it over the decades understood the difference between maintenance and interference. The walls carry their age well. Original doors, frames, and mouldings remain in place — not as a design affectation, but because they were simply never replaced. Ceilings, walls, and woodwork have been treated with traditional linseed oil paint in the old Dalarna manner, which gives the interior that warm, slightly matte glow you see in the open-air museum at Zorngården in nearby Mora. The ground floor living area has been fitted with new Floda pine flooring, and it sits comfortably alongside the older elements without trying to upstage them. Heat comes from two tiled stoves an ... click here to read more

The alarm doesn't go off here. You wake up because sunlight is coming through the timber walls in long yellow strips, and somewhere outside a woodpecker is hammering away at a birch tree. That's the morning at Vibyhyttevägen 3 — unhurried, cool, and exactly why you bought a Swedish country retreat in the first place. This is a genuine 18th-century log cabin in Vidbyhyttan, a quiet hamlet within Hofors municipality in Gävleborg County, sitting on just over 5,400 square meters of private land. Forty square meters inside, but don't let that fool you — the layout is tight in the best Scandinavian sense of the word. Every corner does something useful. The living room anchors the space with an open fireplace that, come October, becomes the entire reason you're still here past the summer. It radiates more than heat. It radiates that particular Swedish cabin feeling — the one people drive hours from Stockholm to find and rarely do, because most cabins this old and this authentic simply aren't for sale anymore. The galley kitchen is compact and honest. No granite countertop fantasies here — just a well-organized workspace that makes you realize how little you actually need when you're cooking with ingredients you just picked from the garden. And there is a garden worth picking from: apple trees, heavy with fruit by late August, and raspberry bushes that genuinely threaten to take over the lawn if you give them a good summer. The grassy plot stretches out generously around the cabin, backed by mature trees that screen the property on all sides and keep the whole place feeling like your own private clearing in the forest. Sleeping arrangements are cleverly stacked. The main bedroom fits two custom-built beds, and a loft above op ... click here to read more

Pull up to Gunnarvattnet 5018 on a Friday evening in February, step out of the car, and the silence hits you first. Not the uncomfortable urban kind—proper, deep Nordic silence, broken only by the creak of snow-weighted pine branches and the distant buzz of a snowmobile fading somewhere toward the Norwegian border. The thermometer reads minus twelve. The cabin's heat pump has been running since you switched it on remotely from the motorway, and when you push open the door, it's warm and smells faintly of pine and the wool blankets folded on the bunk. This is why you bought the place. Valsjöbyn sits in Jämtland's far northwestern corner, in Krokoms kommun, about as far into the Swedish mountain wilderness as you can get while still reaching an ICA store within a reasonable drive. The village is small and unassuming—a cluster of red houses, a few hundred year-round residents, and a collective understanding that the real point of being here is what lies outside the front door. Gunnarvattnet, the lake that gives the address its name, is a short walk from the cabin. It's a proper fishing lake, too. Arctic char, brown trout, whitefish—the kind of stocks that take decades of clear, cold water to build. Come July, you can walk down before breakfast with a rod, and on a good morning you'll be back in time to fry something in the pan by eight. The cabin itself covers 52 square metres, which sounds compact until you're inside. The layout is honest and functional in the way that Swedish mountain cabins have always been: nothing wasted, nothing missing. The kitchen was recently renovated and is genuinely well-equipped—this isn't a weekend getaway where you're hunting for a working tin opener. You can cook a proper meal here. The li ... click here to read more

Wake up to nothing but birdsong. No traffic hum, no neighbor's lawnmower, no phone buzzing on the nightstand — because there's no signal to carry one. At Uvahult 303 in Alsterbro, Småland, mornings arrive the way they must have for centuries: through pine-filtered light, the smell of cool forest air, and the particular quiet that only truly secluded woodland can produce. This is what you came for. This single-bedroom Swedish torp — the word for the small, self-sufficient farmsteads that dot southern Sweden's countryside — sits on 1,370 square meters of private land deep in the forests of Nybro kommun. Forty square meters of living space. Two rooms. Wooden floors and tongue-and-groove walls that have absorbed generations of long summers and crackling-fire winters. It is completely off-grid: no mains electricity, no running water, no sewage connection. That's not a compromise. For the right buyer, it's the entire point. The layout is honest and practical. The living area centers on a wood-burning stove — the social and thermal heart of the cottage — around which evenings genuinely slow down. Board games, paperbacks, the low conversation of people who've had nowhere pressing to be all day. The kitchen corner handles the essentials without ceremony. The bedroom fits a double bed and storage without feeling cramped, and the second room flexes as a reading space, a guest sleeping area, or an art studio depending on the season and who's visiting. Large windows on both sides pull the forest inside, framing whatever wildlife wanders close enough to notice. Store Hindsjön is a short walk through the trees. The lake is cold, clear, and largely unfished by anyone other than locals who know it's there. Come July and August, Swedis ... click here to read more

Picture this: it's a Friday evening in late June, and you've just pulled off the E18 onto the quiet lane that winds through the birch trees toward Mellansundet. The windows are down. The air smells of pine resin and lake water. By the time you step out of the car, the stress of the week genuinely feels like it happened to someone else. That's what owning a place like this does to you. Mellansundet 5 sits in one of those rare pockets of Swedish lakeside life that doesn't announce itself on any tourist map. This is a 40-square-metre, two-bedroom holiday cottage on the shores of Lake Mälaren—Scandinavia's third-largest lake—less than 50 metres from the water's edge, yet only a short drive from the centre of Västerås. It was built in 1967, and it carries that era's sensibility: compact, considered, nothing wasted. It's in good condition and genuinely move-in ready, the kind of place you can arrive at on a Thursday night with a bag of groceries and immediately feel at home. The interior is arranged so that every square metre pulls its weight. Two bedrooms, a shower room, a kitchen with enough counter space to actually cook in, and a living room with large windows that frame the surrounding greenery like a painting that changes with the seasons. In July those windows glow with green light filtered through mature deciduous trees. By late September, the same view turns amber and rust. When snow sits on the branches in February, you'll understand why Swedes invented the concept of mys—that particular indoor coziness that has no real English translation. The conservatory is the room that catches most people off guard. It's a glass-enclosed extension that acts as a buffer between indoors and out—warm enough to sit in with a coff ... click here to read more

Step outside on a July morning in Joesjö and the air hits you differently. It's cold even in midsummer, sharp with pine resin and the faint iron smell of the stream running beside the lappkåta. The silence isn't empty—it hums with birdsong, the soft creak of the cabin settling in the warmth, and about 250 meters through the trees, the sound of Övre Jovattnet lapping at its stony shore. This is Swedish Lapland at its most honest. No curated Instagram version of it. The real thing. The cabin at Joesjö 318 was built in 2005 and it wears its age lightly—well-kept, solid, move-in ready. From the moment you walk through the door, the ceiling grabs your attention. It rises all the way to the roof ridge, opening the living space upward in a way that feels genuinely generous for a 70-square-meter footprint. Large windows pull the forest inside without you having to go anywhere. The kitchen flows naturally from the living room, and you can watch the lappkåta sitting quietly across the stream while you wait for the kettle to boil. There are two bedrooms on the main level—calm, practical, well-proportioned. Above them, a loft adds sleeping space for kids or visiting friends, the kind of flexible setup that makes a mountain cabin feel like it can absorb however many people turn up. The bathroom has a sauna. Of course it does. This is Sweden. But it's worth saying clearly: finishing a day of hiking up Norra Storfjällets trails and stepping into that heat is not just pleasant. It's transformative. Your legs stop arguing with you. Everything quiets down. Directly across from the main cabin, on its own separate plot included in the sale, stands the lappkåta. This traditional Sami-style structure is something genuinely rare to find in ... click here to read more

Sometime around midsummer, the sky above Ödeborg Stommen never fully darkens. By ten at night there's still a warm amber glow sitting low over the meadow to the west, and the only sound is the occasional rustling of birch leaves and a woodpecker working somewhere deep in the tree line. That's the daily reality of owning this 1837 Swedish torp cottage — not a concept, not a marketing angle, just a genuinely quiet piece of Västra Götaland that costs less to run per year than most city dwellers spend on coffee. Set on a 1,736 square meter plot along the rural road at Ödeborg Stommen 5, just outside Färgelanda, this single-bedroom country home sits in a part of Sweden that doesn't get overrun in July. The Bohuslän coast draws the crowds — Strömstad, Smögen, Grebbestad — but this corner of inland Dalsland stays calm. You share the landscape with red-painted farm buildings, elk at the forest edge, and the occasional tractor. For buyers hunting a vacation home in Sweden that feels genuinely off the beaten path rather than performatively rustic, this is the real thing. The cottage is compact at 30 square meters, split across two rooms, and that's precisely the point. There's no maintenance burden here, no sprawling house demanding weekends of upkeep. A wood-burning stove handles cool evenings with the satisfying crackle that central heating simply cannot replicate. An air-to-air heat pump — controllable via smartphone — means you can turn the place on before you arrive in October and step into a warm room after a two-hour drive from Gothenburg. Running costs for the entire year run to roughly 4,200 SEK. For context, that's around €370. That's it. The robotic lawn mower handles the garden autonomously, so your weekends here sta ... click here to read more

Saturday morning, the coffee is already made. You carry your mug out onto the wide wooden deck and the forest is right there — birch and pine, close enough to hear the wind move through it. A woodpecker hammers somewhere out of sight. The cul-de-sac at Torsborg is completely still. No passing traffic, no sirens. Just the slow, unhurried feel of a Swedish summer morning doing exactly what it's supposed to do. This 1958 country home on the elevated end plot of Torsborg sits on a generous 1,638 square meters of garden and woodland-edge land in the Torsborg area of Eskilstuna — a location that doesn't get talked about enough outside Sweden, which is partly why properties here still represent genuine value. At 89,500 EUR for a move-in-ready holiday home with a guest cottage, fiber internet, and 35 square meters of well-kept interior space, this is the kind of find that serious second-home buyers move on quickly. The house itself is compact and considered. One bedroom, one bathroom, a kitchen that works hard for its size, and a living room centered around a modern air-source heat pump that handles both the warmth of late-autumn visits and the cooling relief of a July heatwave. Large windows face the garden, and the light on a long Swedish summer evening is something you genuinely can't replicate — the sun barely sets, casting that particular Nordic gold across the wooden floors for hours. It doesn't feel small. It feels edited. Everything here has a purpose. What the footprint lacks in size, the land more than compensates for. The plot wraps around the house with room for a kitchen garden, a hammock between the pines, a fire pit on the far edge — whatever you want to make of it. The deck is wide and south-facing, and if you ... click here to read more

The wood-burning stove is already crackling when you pull on your boots and step outside into a Södermanland morning. Frost on the grass. Birch trees catching the low autumn light. Not a sound except a crow somewhere in the spruce forest behind the meadow. This is Marö Lillhult — a small red cottage on a generous stretch of land just outside Gnesta, and the kind of place that makes you wonder why you ever needed anything more complicated than this. Set on 1,930 square meters of open plot, the cottage itself is 60 square meters of honest Swedish country living. Classic falu red exterior, white trim, a small veranda facing the garden — the look is straightforward and entirely at home against the rolling landscape of central Södermanland. It's been well maintained, and while it carries the authentic character of a traditional Swedish sommarstuga, it's genuinely in good condition and ready to use from day one. Step inside and the wooden floors creak just enough to feel real. Paneled walls, low ceilings, afternoon light slanting through windows that frame views of your own meadow and the treeline beyond. The ground floor has a hallway, a kitchen with everything you need to cook a proper meal, and a living room where that wood stove does serious work on cold evenings. One bedroom sits on the ground floor; a second sleeping area with sloped ceilings waits upstairs — the kind of room where children insist on claiming the best spots, and adults sleep better than they have in months. A practical note worth being upfront about: the cottage runs on summer water and uses an outdoor privy rather than indoor plumbing. For many buyers, that's not a compromise — it's precisely the point. Sweden has a deep cultural relationship with th ... click here to read more

The smell hits you first. Cut grass, sun-warmed pine, and somewhere behind the old apple tree, the faint salt of the Baltic coast drifting in over the garden wall. You're standing on the glass veranda at Söderängsvägen 2, coffee in hand, watching a pair of starlings argue in the birch tree. It's not even eight in the morning and you already know — this is exactly what you were looking for. Set on a generous 3,019-square-meter plot outside Östhammar in Sweden's Uppsala County, this classic red-painted country cottage is the kind of property that doesn't need to try hard. Forty square meters of honest, well-kept living space in the main house. A separate guest cottage. A proper woodshed. A garden that took years of patient hands to get this good. And the sea — close enough that cycling to the communal bathing area takes less time than finishing your morning newspaper. The main cottage has the proportions of a traditional Swedish sommarstuga but with enough in the right places. The living room holds both a dining table and a sofa corner without feeling cramped, anchored by a wood-burning stove that turns October evenings into something genuinely atmospheric. The kitchen is compact and functional — the kind of space where you make smörgås for everyone after a swim, not where you host a dinner party. The single bedroom is quiet and set back from the garden, and the natural light through the afternoon is the kind that makes naps feel earned. The glass-enclosed veranda is the real heart of this property. It faces south over the garden and acts as a room in its own right from April through October — warmer than outside but fully connected to it. You can watch the light change over the flower beds from a lounger, track thunder ... click here to read more

On a still September morning, the kitchen window at Vargmossevägen 44 frames a wall of birch trees already tipping gold. The coffee is on the stove. Somewhere out past the tree line, a woodpecker is working at something. This is what a Swedish country home actually feels like — not a postcard version of it, but the real, quiet, deeply restorative thing. Almunge sits roughly halfway between Uppsala and Arlanda Airport in the rolling, lake-dotted countryside of Uppsala municipality. It's one of those villages that locals guard without advertising too loudly. The pace here is genuinely different. People wave from tractors. The air smells of pine resin and damp earth after rain. And once you've spent a weekend in this part of Uppland, the idea of going back to city noise starts to feel faintly absurd. The house on Vargmossevägen was built in 1971 and has been maintained with evident care. At 48 square meters of living space plus an additional 16 square meters of auxiliary area, it's honest about what it is: a well-proportioned two-bedroom country home designed for people who want to actually be outside, not just look at the garden through floor-to-ceiling glass. The two bedrooms are comfortable and properly sized for couples, small families, or friends visiting from abroad. The living room is the kind of space where board games come back out and phones stay face-down on the table. Large windows run throughout the main living areas, and in the afternoon the western light comes through with that particular warmth that high-latitude summers produce — long, low, golden, lasting until nearly 10pm in June. The kitchen is functional and well laid out, with room to cook properly. Not a show kitchen, but a working one, which is ex ... click here to read more

Step off the road between Fardhem and Linde on a still June morning and you'll hear it first — the absolute quiet. Not the silence of emptiness, but the full, living quiet of 3.4 hectares of mature garden, open fields, and old forest pressing in from every side. This is Gotland at its most unhurried, and this 1909 wooden farmhouse sits right in the middle of it. Built when Swedish craftsmen still fitted houses with hand-planed wooden floors and deep-set windows designed to hold the long Nordic light, this three-bedroom country home has spent over a century earning its character. The bones are solid. The atmosphere is unmistakable. At 94 square metres of living space, plus an additional 44 square metres of secondary area, the house is compact in the way that Swedish farmhouses always were — every room deliberate, nothing wasted. The original wooden floors creak in exactly the right places. Windows frame views of the farmyard and fields beyond like paintings that change with every season. The property needs work — that's stated plainly here because buyers who find this listing will appreciate honesty over gloss. Maintenance has been deferred over the years, and the kitchen in particular is ready for a proper overhaul. But that's precisely why this is such a rare find on the Gotland second home market. Properties with this much land, this many original features, and this kind of quiet address almost never come available at this price point. Buyers who've been priced out of the increasingly competitive Visby market have been quietly turning their attention south, and Hemse-area farmhouses like this one are exactly what they're looking for. The outbuildings deserve a paragraph of their own. Several former agricultural stru ... click here to read more

Six o'clock on a July evening. The sun is still high enough to throw long gold stripes across the southwest-facing terrace, your glass is cold, and the only sound drifting over the farmland is a distant tractor and the swallows cutting arcs above the garden. That's the rhythm of Utvedavägen 152 — and once you've felt it, city life stops making as much sense. Vätö is one of those places that Stockholmers have quietly kept to themselves for decades. The island sits within the greater Stockholm archipelago, connected to the mainland by the Vätö Bridge, close enough to the capital that a Friday afternoon drive gets you here before dinner, far enough that you genuinely leave the week behind. The community of Utveda, where this property sits, is the kind of place where the roads are narrow on purpose and the neighbors actually know each other. The house itself was built in 1973 and has been kept in good condition — solid, practical, honest Swedish construction that doesn't pretend to be anything it isn't. Seventy-six square meters spread across three bedrooms and a full living-dining-kitchen setup. The layout is sensible rather than showy: a proper hallway that keeps the mud outside, a kitchen fully kitted with dishwasher, oven, stove, fridge, and a dedicated dining area big enough for a family gathering, and a bathroom with shower and WC that handles the realities of summer living without complaint. This is not a renovation project. Move in, open the windows, start living. What makes the property is the land around it. The corner plot runs to 2,229 square meters — in Swedish archipelago terms, that's genuinely generous. The garden opens out toward surrounding farmland, giving you sightlines that feel much bigger than the b ... click here to read more

The first thing you notice on a June morning at Skogsta 15 is the light. It hits the south-facing slope around five in the morning, floods through the glazed veranda, and turns the whole kitchen amber before anyone else in Hudiksvall is awake. The wood-burning stove is still warm from the night before. The coffee is on. Outside, the chickens in the old barn have started their morning racket. That's the kind of life this place makes possible. Set on 2.2 hectares of gently sloping land just six kilometres from central Hudiksvall in Sweden's Gävleborg County, this three-bedroom country home from 1940 sits on elevated ground surrounded by birch forest, open grass, and a working barn that's earned its keep through the decades. It's priced at €192,000 — a rare entry point for this much land and this much sky in coastal central Sweden. The house itself is 125 square metres across two floors, and it reads exactly as it should: solid, cared-for, practical without being cold. Walk through the front door and you land in a generous hallway — the kind where muddy boots and winter coats have their place. The kitchen has a proper island, a wood-burning stove for damp autumn days, and a full set of modern appliances including a dishwasher, oven, and extractor fan. It's not a kitchen you renovate; it's a kitchen you cook in. The living room on the ground floor has its own wood-burner and enough floor space for a real dining table, not an afterthought. A shower room with toilet and washbasin sits conveniently off the entrance level, and laundry facilities mean you don't have to choose between the countryside lifestyle and basic convenience. Upstairs, two bedrooms — one currently doing duty as a walk-in wardrobe — sit alongside an unfin ... click here to read more

Close your eyes for a moment and picture this: it's a Saturday morning in July, the Swedish summer sun already warming the old wooden floorboards by 7am, and the only sound reaching you through the open kitchen window is birdsong and the faint rustle of birch leaves. That's not a fantasy. That's a typical morning at Högaholma 2279. This 1909 torp — the classic Swedish word for a small country cottage — sits on a quiet country lane just outside Markaryd in Kronoberg County, about 1.7 kilometres from the shores of Bröna Lake. It's the kind of place where the pace of life adjusts itself naturally, almost without you noticing. You arrive on a Friday afternoon still carrying the tension of city schedules, and by Sunday you genuinely can't remember what you were so stressed about. The main house covers 80 square metres, and it's used every centimetre wisely. Original wooden floors run throughout — the kind that creak slightly underfoot, warm with more than a century of family life. A wood-burning stove anchors the living room, and in October when Småland's forests turn every shade of copper and amber, you'll understand exactly why that stove is the heart of the house. The kitchen is a practical pleasure: custom-built painted cabinetry that feels rooted in the cottage's heritage without being fussy or impractical. Large windows pull the outside in, so the garden's changing moods become part of the interior atmosphere in every season. Then there's the guest house. A more recently built addition, it has two rooms, a WC, and a compact kitchenette — enough that visiting family or friends get genuine privacy rather than being squeezed onto a pull-out sofa. This is the detail that changes everything about how you can use the prope ... click here to read more

Early morning in Yxtaholm, the air smells like pine resin and cold lake water. You pull on a sweater, step off the wooden porch, and walk three minutes through a birch-lined path to Mellösasjön. Nobody else is there. The water is dark and clear. This is what you came for. Set on Kvarnmovägen in the well-loved recreational enclave of Yxtaholm, this 1970s Swedish sommarstuga sits on a generous 1,698 square metre plot in the heart of Södermanland — a region of glittering lakes, quiet forests, and red-painted farmhouses that feels like it exists slightly outside of time. At 109,500 SEK, this is a genuinely accessible entry point into the classic Swedish summer cottage lifestyle, the kind that Swedes have guarded jealously for generations. The cottage itself was built in 1975 and spans 48 square metres. That's not a limitation — it's a design philosophy. Swedish summer homes are meant to push you outside, and this one does exactly that. Inside, the layout is efficient and warm: a combined living room and kitchen that catches morning light through large windows overlooking the garden, one quiet bedroom tucked away from the main space, and a bathroom with shower. The kitchen has what you need to cook a proper meal — a crayfish dinner in August, a pot of soup on a rainy September afternoon — without the excess of a city apartment. A small guest cottage sits alongside the main house. Solid enough for a friend to sleep in, or useful as a tool store and overflow space for the kayak paddles and fishing rods that will inevitably accumulate. Practical Swedish pragmatism in a small wooden structure. The garden is the real story here. Nearly 1,700 square metres of it, mature trees throwing long shadows across mown grass in the late ... click here to read more
