Scenic Lakeside Retreat with Development Potential and Adventure at Your Doorstep

Picture waking up on a frost-sharp October morning, the tiled stove already ticking with warmth, steam rising from a mug of coffee as you look out through the glazed conservatory at the still water of the Ljungan River catching the first pale Scandinavian light. The horses are already at the fence. This is not a weekend fantasy — it is a Tuesday in Nedansjö, and it can be yours. Hemgraven 128 sits in the Ljungan valley about 25 minutes west of Sundsvall, in a corner of central Sweden that most international buyers haven't discovered yet — which is precisely why it matters. The property is large, genuinely versatile, and soaked in the kind of regional history that no developer can manufacture. It started life as the steward's house on the estate built by industrialist Bünsow in the late 19th century, the same man who financed the railway between Sundsvall and Torpshammar, established an ironworks and a pulp mill at Hemgraven, and essentially built an entire self-sustaining community from scratch, complete with shops, workers' housing, and even a toy factory. The area was enclosed — outsiders had to ask permission to enter. Today that same sense of a world unto itself is what makes the property so compelling. At 146 square metres, the main house gives you five rooms and a kitchen arranged with the practical logic that Swedish country homes developed over generations. Two classic tiled stoves — kakelugnar, if you want the Swedish word — anchor the principal rooms. They work. They radiate a dry, even heat that a radiator simply cannot replicate, and they look the way old things should look: solid, slightly imposing, quietly beautiful. The geothermal heat pump handles the bulk of winter heating with minimal running costs, s ... click here to read more

You wake up before anyone else in the house. The sun is already high — it's July, and this far north of the Arctic Circle, it barely dips below the horizon. You pull on a fleece, step outside onto the lot, and walk the forty-odd meters down to the edge of Lake Kusträsket. The water is glass. A pike rolls near the reeds. You have nowhere to be. That's the reality of owning a place at Kusträsk 34. This 60-square-meter timber holiday home sits on a generous 2,190 square meter plot in the Boden municipality of Norrbotten County, built in 2007 from solid log construction that keeps the interior cool in summer and retainable-warm through the brutally cold Swedish winters. Two bedrooms, one bathroom, a separate hygiene cottage with a traditional sauna, and fiber-optic broadband that runs fast enough to handle a video call or a Netflix evening when the weather turns. It's the kind of property that covers every real need without overcomplicating anything. The open-plan living and dining area is the social core of the cabin. Wide windows face the forest and the lake — not a curated view through a narrow frame, but a proper wide look at the spruce canopy and the water beyond. The natural pine interior does something good to the light in here; everything takes on a warm amber tone by late afternoon. Cook, eat, play cards at the table, watch the weather roll in across the lake. The kitchen is set up for proper cooking, not just reheating — and after a morning out on the water pulling in perch, that matters. Local anglers smoke their catch over alder wood, a tradition worth learning quickly. The sauna is the detail that separates a Swedish cabin from every other rural property in Europe. This one sits in its own separate structure ... click here to read more

Early on a Saturday morning in late August, you step outside with a coffee and the air smells of pine resin and wet grass. The fruit trees at the far end of the garden are heavy with apples. Nobody else is awake yet. That's the kind of quiet that Sunnersbol 72 delivers — not the forced stillness of a spa weekend, but the genuine, unhurried pace of Swedish countryside life. Sitting in Uppsala kommun, roughly halfway between the university city of Uppsala and the small market town of Alunda, this 1976-built country home sits on a plot of nearly 3,000 square meters — almost three-quarters of an acre — that gives you room to breathe in a way that most European second homes simply can't match at this price point. At 149,500 SEK, this is one of the more accessible entry points into Swedish rural property ownership you'll find, and the combination of move-in condition, outbuildings with genuine conversion potential, and that sweeping plot makes it worth a very serious look. The house itself is compact and honest — 50 square meters of classic Swedish timber construction, painted in the kind of deep, earthy tones you see on farmhouses all across Uppland. Wooden floors run through the main rooms, the kitchen is functional and well-maintained, and large windows pull in light from multiple angles throughout the day. In a building this size, light matters enormously, and whoever designed this one got that right. The flexible internal layout — three to four rooms plus kitchen — means a couple can spread out comfortably, or a small family can make it work through the summer months with the bedrooms and living space reconfigured to suit. What makes this property genuinely interesting, though, is what sits outside the main house. Ther ... click here to read more

Early July on Vätö, and the light never quite leaves the sky. By nine in the evening it's still pale gold through the birch trees, and from the south-facing deck at Svartträskvägen 19 you can hear absolutely nothing except the occasional woodpecker working through the pines. That specific silence — no traffic, no neighbors' televisions, no city hum — is what people drive two hours north from Stockholm to find. This is it. Vätö is one of those places that Stockholmers tend to keep quietly to themselves. Technically an island in the northern Stockholm archipelago within Norrtälje municipality, it's connected by road so you arrive without any ferry anxiety, yet the moment you cross onto the island the pace genuinely shifts. The air smells different — pine resin and lake water — and the roads narrow into single tracks flanked by wildflowers that locals pick for their midsommar wreaths every June. The Sörgården area where this property sits is among the quieter pockets of the island, which is saying something. The house itself was built in 1977 and sits on a 2,323 square metre plot that's been left largely natural — mature trees, mossy ground cover, that particular Swedish woodland character you can't manufacture. It's not manicured and it's better for it. The lot gives you genuine privacy, room for a kitchen garden if you want one, and space to add a sauna cabin down the line (many neighbours have done exactly that). At 55 square metres the house is compact but considered: an open kitchen and living area that work together rather than against each other, two bedrooms, one bathroom with shower and toilet, and a wood-burning stove that transforms the entire place on a cool September evening when the archipelago light turns a ... click here to read more

On a still July morning in Långvreten, the first thing you notice is the silence. Not the absence of sound, but the right kind of sound — wood pigeons in the birch canopy, a distant lawnmower two plots over, the soft creak of a garden chair. By eight o'clock, the sun has already been up for hours. That's the Swedish summer for you. Jädravägen 10 sits on a 2,828-square-metre plot in Bro, Upplands-Bro municipality, about 40 kilometres northwest of Stockholm. It's a 1969 timber cottage that one family has quietly looked after for over five decades. Three bedrooms, one bathroom, 48 square metres of living space inside — and then a vast, tree-lined garden that does most of the real living for you. This is the kind of Swedish vacation home that doesn't exist in brochures because families hold onto them for generations. When one finally comes available, you pay attention. The interior keeps its original bones intact. Low ceilings. Wood-panel walls in that particular warm ochre that 1960s Swedish cottages seem to own. A fireplace in the living room that becomes the social centre of the house the moment September arrives and the evenings cool fast. The kitchen is compact and functional — there's a rhythm to cooking here, the way you plan meals around what's at the local shop in Kungsängen rather than having everything delivered to your door. It changes how you eat, and usually for the better. Three bedrooms means room for kids, grandparents, or that one friend who always lingers into the following week. A note worth knowing upfront: the bathroom currently has a composting toilet and no running water connection to the mains. This is common in older Swedish fritidshus and entirely manageable as a warm-season property, which is p ... click here to read more

The ferry from Näsbyviken takes about four minutes. Four minutes, and the mainland's noise is already somewhere else — behind you, irrelevant. You step onto Ringsö carrying nothing but a bag of groceries and whatever you couldn't leave at the office, and by the time you've walked the pine-lined path up to the red-painted house at Ringsöringen 175, the second thing has already dissolved too. That's the honest sell for this place. Not the square footage, not the buzzwords. It's that specific, almost unfair feeling of arriving somewhere that immediately makes your shoulders drop. Ringsö sits in Lake Mälaren, Sweden's third-largest lake and one of Scandinavia's most underrated waterways. The island belongs to Strängnäs municipality, and if you're approaching from Stockholm, you're looking at roughly an hour by car — take the E20 west and follow signs toward Strängnäs, then wind down through Stallarholmen to catch the water crossing. Strängnäs itself is worth knowing: a cathedral town with roots in the Viking age, a medieval old quarter, and the kind of weekly Saturday market on Rådhustorget where you can stock up on fresh-smoked fish, cloudberry jam, and sourdough before heading back to the island. The town is genuinely liveable, not just a tourist backdrop. The property sits on a 2,252 square metre plot — generous by any measure for an island setting. The main house comes in at 36 square metres on the ground floor, which sounds compact until you're inside and realise how well the space has been thought through. A proper kitchen, a living room with windows that pull in long Swedish afternoon light, one bedroom, a bathroom with shower and an eco-friendly Separett composting toilet. Above, a sleeping loft adds another 10 sq ... click here to read more

Wake up to the sound of nothing. Not silence exactly — there's the soft lap of water against the shore fifty metres away, a woodpecker somewhere in the birches, and if it's early enough on a summer morning, the mist still sitting low over Mungasjön. That's the first thing you notice at this 1800s log cabin in Munga, a small community just outside Västerås where people still leave their doors unlocked and wave at strangers on the gravel road. This is a genuine country home vacation property in Sweden, not a weekend renovation project or a lifestyle concept. The main cabin, roughly 75 square metres, started life in Dalarna — the heartland of Swedish rural architecture — and was relocated to this woodland plot in 1965. The logs have had sixty years to settle into the land. They look like they grew here. Step inside and the floors are solid pine, wide-planked and warm underfoot even in autumn. The ceiling beams are exposed and chunky. The open fireplace isn't decorative; it's where everyone ends up after a long day of swimming or foraging in the forest behind the property. The kitchen has its own wood-burning stove, which means two independent heat sources before you've even thought about the covered terrace — which has its own fireplace too, facing the lake. Three fires for a 75-square-metre house. That tells you something about the priorities of whoever built this place. The modernisation has been done without apology or excess. Fibre-optic internet was installed because working remotely from a lakeside cabin in Sweden is, frankly, a legitimate life choice. The bathroom and shower were renovated tastefully, the laundry room updated between 2018 and 2019. These aren't things you'll need to budget for. The house is move-i ... 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 first thing you notice on a summer morning at Näreby 160 is the silence. Not the hollow silence of nowhere, but the full, layered quiet of the Swedish west coast countryside — a wood pigeon somewhere in the birches, wind brushing through the grass, and somewhere over the ridge, faintly, the smell of salt water drifting in from the Gullmarsfjord. This 1881 cottage on the island of Skaftö sits on over two hectares of open land, exposed granite bedrock, and stone-walled meadows that feel unchanged for generations. If what you're after is a genuine Bohuslän retreat — not a sanitized holiday apartment, but a place with actual history under its feet — this is one of the rare ones left. Built in 1881 and still wearing much of its original character, the cottage at Näreby 160 is the kind of property that photographs poorly and rewards in person. The entrance porch opens directly into a kitchen that has been the heart of the ground floor for well over a century. Three separate rooms on the ground level give you breathing room, and one of them holds a tiled kakelugn stove — the tall, elegant Swedish kind — that the chimney sweep has recently certified still in working order. On a grey October evening, that stove changes everything about how the cottage feels. Upstairs, two bedrooms and a bathroom provide the essentials. The layout is compact and honest: 66 square meters of living space, no more, no less. It's not the size that makes this property worth serious attention. It's the 20,363 square meters surrounding it. Step outside and the scale of what's here becomes clear. Grassy areas practical enough for a game of kubb or a hammock between the birches. Traditional dry-stone walls that thread across the property like somethi ... click here to read more

Step outside on a Tuesday morning in Fägrilt and the loudest thing you'll hear is a wood pigeon calling from one of the old oaks. No traffic hum, no sirens, nothing but wind moving through the fields and the faint creak of a barn door. This is the kind of quiet that city people drive hours to find — and here, it's just the Tuesday morning soundtrack. Set on roughly 9,200 square meters of open Swedish countryside in Laholms kommun, this 120-square-meter country home sits elevated above a patchwork of fields and forest edges in the hamlet of Fägrilt, just outside Våxtorp. The land feels generous. The mature oaks that frame the property have been here longer than anyone can remember, and in summer they throw deep shade across the gravel driveway, turning the approach to the house into something from a Vilhelm Moberg novel. In autumn, that same driveway is ankle-deep in copper leaves. The house itself has been kept in good condition and updated where it counts. A modern heat pump handles heating efficiently year-round — a real practical consideration for anyone buying in Sweden, where winters in Halland can be grey and raw from November through February. The roof has been replaced recently, the sewage system modernized, and fiber internet runs to the property, which matters enormously if you plan to work remotely or simply want to stream a film after a day outside without fighting a patchy signal. These aren't glamorous upgrades, but they're the ones that prevent a country retreat from becoming a money pit. Inside, the layout is open and functional. Large windows pull in the countryside views — on clear days you're looking out over fields that stretch toward the forest line — and the light shifts beautifully across the in ... 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 July morning at Såghyttevägen 14 and you'll hear it before you see it — the absolute quiet of Mellantjärnen lake, broken only by the soft lap of water against the shore less than fifty meters from your door. The birch trees are still. The coffee is on. And somehow, even though Falun's city center is just minutes away by car, it feels like the rest of the world has agreed to leave you alone for a while. That's the particular magic of this corner of Dalarna, and this property captures it in a way that's hard to manufacture. Three separate buildings sit on a generous 7,570 square meter lot — a main house, a guest cottage with an open fireplace, and a compact little outbuilding the previous owners called the "dollhouse." It's the kind of setup that rarely comes up for sale, and when it does, it goes quickly. The main house is 36 square meters — honest, compact, and well-considered. A small entrance hall opens into the layout, with a bedroom to one side and a combined kitchen, dining, and living space that makes the most of every centimeter. The wood-burning stove at the center of that room earns its keep on cool Dalarna evenings in September, when the temperatures drop and the maples turn amber outside the large windows. Those windows matter. They frame the lake and the tree line in a way that makes the interior feel much more open than the footprint suggests — you're always aware of the water, always connected to the landscape outside. The kitchen is set up for exactly what this kind of retreat demands: a refrigerator, a hotplate, a sink. Nothing excessive. Enough to put together a proper Swedish fika spread, fry up the perch you caught that morning, or heat soup after a long ski. The guest cottage add ... click here to read more

Six o'clock on a July morning and the only sound is a woodpecker somewhere in the pines behind the garden. You pull open the conservatory door, coffee in hand, and the cool air carries the faint smell of resin and wet grass. This is what Ekedals byväg 66 feels like before the rest of the world wakes up — and honestly, that alone is worth the price of admission. This is a proper Swedish sommarstuga, the kind that gets passed between families who actually use it. Two bedrooms, a renovated kitchen, a conservatory big enough for a long table of eight, and a flat garden that begs for a game of kubb before dinner. Fifty square metres of well-considered space that never feels tight because the ceiling in the main living room shoots all the way up to the ridge, doubling the sense of volume. The generous windows pull the treeline inside, so the forest is always in your peripheral vision whether you're cooking, reading, or just sitting still. The current owners renovated with a clear-eyed focus on practicality — not cosmetic staging. The kitchen is genuinely functional: full-size stove, fridge-freezer, proper worktop space. No fussy finishes that scuff easily, no open shelving that looks great in photos and collects dust in real life. The loft above the living area sleeps two more, which makes spontaneous visits from friends or children's cousins entirely manageable rather than logistically painful. The bathroom has a shower cabin, sink, and a separett composting toilet — a standard and well-proven setup in Swedish leisure properties where conventional sewage connection isn't available. Off the main living room, the conservatory deserves its own paragraph. This is where summer actually happens. Long breakfasts that drift into l ... click here to read more

On a still Tuesday morning in late August, the light through the west-facing terrace at Vikavägen 6 lands differently than anywhere else. It's that particular Nordic gold—low, long, almost amber—that turns an ordinary cup of coffee into something you want to remember. The lilacs have finished blooming, the garden smells of warm grass, and somewhere about a kilometer down the road, the morning boat to Arholma is leaving Simpnäs harbor with a low churn of engine and the cry of a few opportunistic gulls. This is Björkö. And once you've spent a summer here, it becomes very hard to spend one anywhere else. Vikavägen 6 is a year-round holiday home on the island of Björkö in Norrtälje municipality, sitting in the outer reach of the Stockholm archipelago where the Åland Sea opens up and the islands thin out into something wilder and less visited than the tourist-heavy inner archipelago. The property dates to 1909, and you can feel that history in the weight of the walls and the way the three buildings frame a courtyard garden that has clearly been lived in and loved across many generations. At the same time, this is not a restoration project. The main house is in good condition, with a kitchen renovated in 2019, a modern shower room, and proper water and sewage connections that make year-round use genuinely comfortable rather than just technically possible. The main house is single-story, 84 square meters, and the layout makes intelligent use of every one of them. The kitchen has kept its rustic character after the renovation—there's a wood-burning stove in there that does double duty, heating the space and making the room smell like every Swedish winter weekend you've ever imagined. It opens into a dining room that functions ... click here to read more

Saturday morning. You pull open the heavy wooden door of the sauna house, and the birch-scented steam rolls out across the rocky knoll while the Stockholm archipelago sits quiet and silver through the trees. The wood-fired hot tub is still warm from the night before. Nobody else is awake yet. This is Vätö — and once you've had a morning like that, it's almost impossible to go back to ordinary weekends. Krokusstigen 10 sits on the island of Vätö in Norrtälje municipality, about 90 kilometres north of Stockholm, connected to the mainland by a bridge that makes this feel accessible without ever feeling crowded. The property is a classic Swedish sommarstuga in spirit — built in 1956, with all the soul that comes from a house that has absorbed decades of long evenings and midsummer celebrations — but the practical side has been kept firmly in the present. This is not a project. It's move-in ready and waiting. The main house runs to 60 square metres, which sounds compact until you step out onto the large wooden terraces and realise the living space effectively doubles in summer. Swedes know how to design for the outdoors, and this house is proof. The terraces wrap around the property in a way that catches light at different hours of the day — morning coffee on one side, evening wine on the other as the sun drops low over the pines. Inside, the living room is anchored by a masonry open fireplace with a Roslag insert, the kind of cast-iron fitting that's been keeping archipelago families warm for generations. Light a fire in September, crack a window, and listen to the first autumn wind move through the birch trees outside. That fireplace earns its keep from August through to May. The layout is honest and well-proportioned. A ... click here to read more

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

Early on a September morning, the mist sits low over the fields at Ustorp. You open the kitchen window and the smell that comes in is grass and lake water and something faintly woodsy — pine resin, maybe, or the leaves already turning on the birches at the far edge of the meadow. There's no traffic noise. Just the distant call of cranes gathering for their southward journey, and the creak of the old wooden frame as the house warms up. This is what daily life looks like at Ustorp 11, a country property on 2.4 hectares of southern Swedish land, sitting roughly a kilometer from the western shore of Lake Solgen in Eksjö Municipality. The plot is the first thing that stops you. 24,000 square meters of it — open arable fields, mature trees, lawns wide enough to get genuinely lost in. The house sits on elevated ground, which means you're looking out over the surrounding farmland rather than into it. On clear days the view extends toward the lake. In winter, when the deciduous trees drop their leaves, you can see even further. The elevation also means the rooms get good light most of the day, which matters in Småland, where winters are real and dark and you learn to chase the sun across the house. The main residence is in good condition, cared for in the understated way that Swedish country homeowners tend to look after things — quietly, consistently, without fuss. Classic rural Swedish architecture means thick walls, practical proportions, and windows that frame the outside like paintings you never get tired of. Inside, the atmosphere is warm and genuinely liveable. This isn't a renovation project held together by optimism. You could arrive on a Friday evening and simply be here. What sets this place apart from a typical Swe ... click here to read more

Step outside on a Saturday morning in July and the lake is right there — twenty seconds down the path, glittering through the birch trees, still enough to mirror the sky. That's not a selling point. That's just Tuesday at Kvarsätters sjöväg 26. This two-bedroom country home sits on a generous corner lot in the Kvarsätter community of Hallsberg Municipality, Örebro County, with Lake Tisaren less than fifty meters from the front gate. It's a proper Swedish fritidshus — built in 1979, solid and well-maintained, 100 square meters of comfortable interior space — but what makes it work as both a vacation home and a potential year-round residence is how effortlessly it fits the life you'd actually want to live here. The house itself is warm and unpretentious. The living room anchors everything: a working fireplace for the deep-winter months when the lake freezes over and the forest goes completely quiet, paired with a modern air-source heat pump that makes climate control genuinely practical in every season. Autumn evenings in particular are something here. The surrounding forest turns amber and rust in September, and with the heat pump humming quietly and a fire going, the inside of this house becomes exactly the kind of place you don't want to leave. The kitchen is full-sized and functional — real counter space, real storage, designed for people who actually cook rather than just heat things up. It flows naturally into the dining area, which matters when you've got family visiting or friends up from Stockholm for a long weekend. The bathroom is large and modern, refreshingly so for a house of this era and type. Out back, a substantial south-facing wooden deck catches sun from mid-morning through early evening. In midsumme ... click here to read more
