Description

Welcome to an extraordinary opportunity nestled on Ringsaker Mountain, perfectly poised for those craving a nature-focused retreat. Situated in the peaceful village of Mesnali, Norway, Grunnåsen 98 proudly awaits its new owners, offering its unique allure in every season.

This classic chalet, built in 1957 and thoughtfully extended in 1989 and 2017, sprawls over a single level with a considerable 118 square meter living area. As soon as you step inside, you'll notice the spaciousness—perhaps even feel the history in its very walls, as well as see the bright path it’s ready to traverse with you. With four generous bedrooms and two bathrooms, this property has been well cared for, making it ideal for a growing family or those seeking ample space for visitors.

Upon entry, a warm and inviting atmosphere greets you, essentially setting the stage for what unfolds as you explore the chalet further. Large windows splash natural light across every corner, highlighting the rustic, wooden features that whisper tales of pleasant memories. Both living rooms are well-equipped with fireplaces; imagine crackling wood and cozy nights, offering both comfort and a delightful atmosphere during the brisk winter months.

Life in Mesnali is tuned to the rhythm of nature. Located just a short drive from Lillehammer, it promises a harmonious blend of tranquility and the option for adventure. Given its mountainous location, winters transform the surroundings into a white wonderland, perfect for skiing enthusiasts eager to set trails to Sjusjøen or the famed Birkebeiner trail. As winter blankets retreat, summer unveils an alluring contrast, with lush landscapes proposing superb opportunities for swimming and fishing in serene waters.

Outside, the chalet continues its promise. The southeast-facing terrace, added in 2018, stands ready to host serene mornings with a coffee, or relaxed evenings entertaining friends, all against a beautiful backdrop of nature's art. In fact, many find this outdoor haven to practically be an extra living area.

Life in a chalet presents a unique lifestyle, filled with simple pleasures and absolute tranquility. The rustic yet cozy ambience of Grunnåsen 98 allows for a relaxed pace, where days can be spent following trails, delighting in snow-covered skates, or befriending sparkling lakes—a picture-perfect scenario for those who seek an escape from urban hustle without compromising on comfort.

The chalet is packed with practical amenities to fulfill daily needs:
- 4 spacious bedrooms
- 2 well-kept bathrooms
- Twin fireplaces in living areas
- Expansive storage indoor and outdoor
- Large southeast-facing terrace
- Sunlit living spaces
- Cozy, timbered interiors
- Functional kitchen with abundant counter space
- Open and airy floor plan
- Plethoric potentials for family engagement

Its listing price at 316,239 currency signifies more than property; it’s an investment into a lifestyle—and one that overseas buyers or expats will find hard to resist.

While the chalet stands in good condition, it whispers the gentle invitation for personalization. Future owners might wish to embark on a light update here and there; however, its current state is both inviting and functional, ready to welcome new narratives and possibly even transform winters of skiing and storytelling into lifelong traditions.

The local climate graces you with distinct seasons, guaranteeing snowy escapades as well as blooming landscapes, each lowering its own curtain for a fresh act of Norway’s drama-filled nature displays. Meanwhile, Mesnali offers communal gatherings, seasonal festivals, and the quintessential Nordic warmth that tends to leave visitors wanting more than just occasional visits.

Mesnali, in essence, ensures that Grunnåsen 98 is not simply a property, but a generational delight wrapped in peace and possibilities. Whether you’ve been wooed by the call of the wild or the vibrant allure of mountain pursuits, this chalet makes both your stage and sanctuary available for your next slice of life.

Stand on the west-facing terrace at nine in the evening in July and the sky still glows amber over Romsdalsfjorden. The mountains on the far shore hold their reflection in water so still it looks painted. That is the moment this chalet was built for — and it happens, reliably, every single summer. Sitting in the Vikahammaren cabin area just outside Eidsvåg i Romsdal, this three-bedroom Norwegian chalet is the kind of place that makes you stop checking your phone. Built in 2008 and maintained in good condition throughout, it covers 73 square metres of well-planned interior space on a 697-square-metre owned plot, 200 metres from the water's edge. The price is 265,000 EUR. For what you get here — a private boathouse, a dedicated marina mooring, a wood-fired hot tub, and one of the more arresting fjord views in Møre og Romsdal county — that is serious value. Step inside and the first thing you notice is the ceiling. The living room has a full sloped roof profile, and the height it creates makes the space feel bigger than the floor plan suggests. Large windows run along the west and south walls, pulling the fjord and the mountain ridges straight into the room. On grey autumn days, when low cloud rolls down from Trolltindane to the north, those windows frame something close to a living painting. On clear winter nights, the same view goes dark and vast and full of stars. A cast-iron wood-burning stove sits against one wall — get it going after a day on the trails and the room reaches that particular warmth that only wood heat produces. The kitchen was replaced in 2020 by Drømmekjøkken, one of the better Norwegian kitchen outfitters, and it shows. Stone countertops, integrated dishwasher, induction hob, and a layout that actu ... click here to read more

Spacious living room with sloped ceiling and beautiful views

You wake up to the sound of nothing. Not silence exactly — there's the soft creak of the cabin settling, a gull calling somewhere over the water, and if you leave the bedroom window cracked overnight, the faint lap of the fjord against the rocks below. That's the morning at Djupvik. By the time the kettle boils, the light is already doing something extraordinary across the Tysfjord, turning the water from slate to silver to an almost luminous green depending on the clouds. This is a Norway that most people only see in photographs. This 49-square-metre chalet sits just above the flood line on a generous freehold plot in Djupvik, a tiny coastal hamlet within the municipality of Kjeldebotn in Nordland county. It's compact and honest — one bedroom, one bathroom, a sleeping loft, an annex, a pavilion, a storage shed, and a terrace large enough to fit everyone you'd want to invite for midsummer. The plot gives you room to breathe, room to store a kayak or a small boat, and room to just sit in the grass and watch the mountains across the water do what Norwegian mountains do: look impossibly large and improbably close. Inside, wood-panelled walls and ceilings do exactly what they should in a cabin this far north — they make the space feel warm even before you light anything. The wood-burning stove is set in stone at the centre of the main room, and on an October evening when the temperature drops fast and the fjord takes on a steel-grey colour, you'll be grateful for every log stored in the open bay beneath the cabin. The open-plan layout means the kitchen, dining area, and living room all flow together, and the large windows pull the landscape inside so completely that you almost forget you're indoors. Almost. The kitchen is ... click here to read more

Spacious and well-maintained leisure property with attractive location just above the flood line.

Step outside on a February morning and your ski boots are already clipped in before your coffee gets cold. That's the reality at Fageråsen 497 — a compact, well-kept mountain cabin sitting on one of the most coveted pockets of land in Trysil, with the groomed runs of Trysilfjellet literally at the end of the garden. The slopes are right there. No shuttle, no car park, no fuss. Trysil is Norway's largest ski resort, and Fageråsen is the neighbourhood that regulars fight over. It sits in the upper reaches of the resort area, high enough for reliable snow cover from November through April, close enough to the main lift network that you're riding chairs within minutes of leaving the front door. On clear days — and there are many — the view from the terrace sweeps across a wide arc of forested ridges and open pistes that glow orange in the late afternoon light. It's the kind of view you stop taking for granted only when guests visit and you see their faces. The cabin itself is 39 square metres. That's a deliberate choice, not a compromise. In Norway, cabins under 50 square metres are classified as annex or secondary structures, and that classification carries a significant upside here: the plot — which is privately owned, not a leasehold — measures 792 square metres, and an independent feasibility study by ByggePlan AS has confirmed 128 square metres of buildable area remaining without the need for a special planning dispensation. In plain terms, you can build a full-sized main cabin on the same plot, using the lower access side of the property, while keeping this structure as a guest annex or rental unit. The full study is included in the sales documentation. For buyers thinking even one step ahead, this is a remarkable po ... click here to read more

Step outside on a Tuesday morning in late September. The frost hasn't quite arrived yet, but you can feel it coming — the air has that sharp, clean edge that only exists at 300 metres above the Ryfylke valley floor. A trail cuts upward through birch and heather from the edge of your plot. You don't need a map. You know where it goes. That's the kind of relationship you build with a place like Bjørkeligrend. This newly designed two-bedroom cabin sits on plot number 1 within a small, carefully planned development called Bjørkeligrend at Leite fjellgard, just outside the village of Årdal i Ryfylke in southwestern Norway. There are only 17 plots across the entire 100-decare site. That's intentional. The developer hasn't tried to squeeze every last kroner out of the land — each plot runs to roughly 1,000 square metres, meaning you get actual breathing room between you and your neighbours, which in Norwegian mountain cabin culture is not just appreciated, it's expected. The cabin itself covers 55 square metres of well-considered interior space: two proper bedrooms, a bathroom, a combined kitchen and living area, storage and technical room, and a loft that works equally well as a third sleeping area or a reading corner where kids disappear for hours. Large windows pull in serious amounts of natural light and frame long views across the valley and surrounding ridgeline. On a clear winter day, when the snow sits on the high ground and the low sun angles in at two in the afternoon, the light inside turns golden in a way that no interior designer could replicate. Finishes are solid and practical rather than showy. Wooden roof construction, royal-impregnated exterior cladding that handles Norwegian weather without demanding cons ... click here to read more

The first thing you notice is the light. Up here on the Helgeland coast, on a clear July morning, the sun barely sets—it just dips toward the horizon, paints the sea copper, and climbs back up again. Standing on the wide terrace at Slåtterøyveien 30, coffee in hand, watching that light move across the water toward the outer islands, you understand immediately why people come to Sleneset and never quite manage to leave. This is a genuine Norwegian coastal chalet. Two bedrooms, 63 square meters of well-kept living space, built in 1996 and still going strong—roof replaced in 2023, pine floors warm underfoot, wooden panels covering every wall and ceiling the way they should in a cabin this close to the sea. It's not a renovated showpiece. It's a proper holiday home that has been lived in and loved, and it shows in the right ways. The living room is anchored by a wood-burning stove, the kind that earns its keep the moment September rolls in and the evenings cool. Large windows frame the coastal landscape outside—rocky shoreline, open water, the scattered silhouettes of nearby islands. The open connection between the kitchen and living area keeps everything from feeling cramped, and the high ceilings add a sense of space that the floor plan number alone doesn't suggest. The kitchen carries Sigdal cabinetry, solid and practical, with a proper extractor fan vented to the outside. There's room to cook a real meal here, not just make sandwiches. Upstairs, a loft hems adds flexible sleeping capacity—ideal when the extended family arrives in August, or when friends come up for a fishing weekend. One of the bedrooms includes a bunk bed, which makes the logistics of fitting more people in considerably easier. There's also a glassed ... click here to read more

Welcome to Slåtterøyveien 30! A spacious holiday property with its own shoreline, boathouse with large quay, and immediate proximity to the sea.

Seven in the morning and the Romsdalsfjord is completely flat. You're sitting on the lower deck of the veranda with a mug of coffee, watching the light do something impossible to the water — turning it from graphite to copper to deep, cold blue within the space of twenty minutes. The only sound is a distant outboard motor and the occasional creak of the old pine boards underfoot. This is what mornings at Lauvskogvegen 5 actually feel like. The chalet sits right at the fjord's edge in the Hallset cabin area outside Gjemnes — a stretch of Møre og Romsdal coastline that most international visitors never find because they're too busy driving the Atlantic Road further south. Their loss. The south-facing orientation here means the sun tracks across the property from early morning until it drops behind Trollheimen's peaks in the evening. No neighbour blocks the view. No building interrupts the sightline to the water. Just 1,900 square metres of lawn, granite outcrops, mature birch trees, and direct access to the rocky shoreline below. The main cabin dates to 1968, extended westward in 1980, and it wears its age honestly rather than apologetically. Step inside and you're met with panelled pine walls, lacquered floors that have taken decades to reach this particular shade of honey, and a wood-burning stove in the living room that becomes the undisputed centre of the universe from October through April. The open-plan kitchen and living area is a smart layout — the kind that emerged from practical Norwegian thinking long before open-plan became an architectural trend. Whoever's cooking doesn't miss the conversation, and whoever's talking doesn't have to shout. Large windows pull the fjord right into the room. Four bedrooms handl ... click here to read more

Stand on the rear terrace at seven in the morning, coffee in hand, and the Åsenfjord is already doing something extraordinary. The light comes low and sharp off the water, cutting between the forested hills on the opposite shore, and the only sound is the occasional creak of a boat rope from the shared dock below. That's 46 meters from your front door to the water's edge. Not a short walk to the beach. Forty-six meters. Løvtangenvegen 44 sits on the Løvtangen peninsula in Åsenfjord, a finger of land that juts into one of Trøndelag's most quietly spectacular stretches of water, roughly 35 kilometers northeast of Trondheim. This is a genuine Norwegian leisure property — the kind families hold onto for generations — and it's landed on the market in solid condition, priced for someone who knows what they're looking at. The chalet itself was first built in 1965, then extended and modernised over the years, arriving at its current form with 83 square meters of interior space split across a main building and a self-contained annex. The exterior is a mix of vertical timber cladding and horizontal paneling, unpretentious and completely at home against the green hillside backdrop. First impressions matter, and the landscaped entrance path, sheltered by mature trees, sets a tone that the rest of the property delivers on. Outside, the layout is clever. Multiple terraces are positioned around the building so that at almost any hour, regardless of where the sun is sitting, there's somewhere to be. The covered entrance terrace has an outdoor fireplace — and anyone who's sat around an open fire on a cool Norwegian September evening watching the last of the light leave the fjord will understand immediately why this matters. The rear t ... click here to read more

Step outside on a July morning, coffee in hand, and the first thing you notice is the light. It bounces off the water below Birkebeinerbakken and fills every corner of the terrace before most of the neighbourhood is even awake. This is not a vague promise of a view — from the 85-square-metre sun terrace, you watch the fjord change colour through the day: pale silver at breakfast, deep blue by lunch, amber and rose as the evening stretches long into the Nordic summer sky. Berger sits on the western shore of Drammensfjorden, a place that most international buyers have not yet discovered but that Norwegians have quietly treasured for generations. The village has a particular rhythm to it. Weekday mornings bring locals cycling the coastal path toward Svelvik. Weekends fill Bergerbukta — the sheltered bay a short walk from the cabin — with swimmers, families, and kayakers threading between the rocks. The pier at the bottom of the walking path from the property is a communal hub: children jumping, neighbours chatting, the faint smell of sunscreen and saltwater drifting up through the pines. The chalet at Birkebeinerbakken 10 is a genuine holiday home — compact, well thought out, and set on a freehold plot of 812 square metres that gives it a sense of space and ownership rare in this price range. At 64 square metres of interior living space, nothing is wasted. The living room has high ceilings and large windows that pull the landscape inside; a wood-burning stove anchors one wall and a heat pump keeps the space comfortable across seasons, because this cabin is not just for August. Owners come in late May when the birch trees leaf out overnight, in September when the forest behind the plot turns rust and gold, and again in win ... click here to read more

Front view of the cabin and pool area

Step outside on a January morning and the only sound is the scrape of a ski boot clipping into a binding. The groomed cross-country track runs directly past the cabin, the Ål Ski Center lift is visible from the wraparound terrace, and the Numedalsåsen ridge catches the first pale light of a Norwegian winter day. That's the reality of life at Kroktjørnvegen 404 — not a promise, but a daily routine. Built in 2020, this two-bedroom mountain chalet in the Primhovda cabin area sits high on the hillside above Ål in Hallingdal, one of the most established and accessible mountain regions in Norway. At 375,000 EUR, it represents solid value in a market where newer construction with this combination of ski access, south-facing orientation, and a freehold 965-square-metre lot is genuinely hard to find. The chalet covers 78 square metres of proper living space across the main floor, plus an additional 44 square metres of loft rooms — flexible, open space that families tend to immediately convert into a kids' bunk area or a reading nook that doubles as overflow sleeping. The main floor layout is clean and practical: open-plan living and kitchen, two bedrooms, a bathroom, entrance hall, and a storage room big enough to actually store two seasons' worth of outdoor gear without chaos. The loft rooms aren't classified as bedrooms for planning purposes, but in practice they add real usability to the property. What you notice first inside is the light. Large windows across the living area frame the mountain panorama without obstruction, and because the cabin sits perched on the hillside facing south, you get sun from mid-morning through to late afternoon even in December. Underfloor heating runs through the kitchen and living room, the ... click here to read more

The sun is still up at half past seven. It's late June, and you're sitting on a 22-square-meter terrace above the fjord, watching a sailing boat cut slowly across Korsvikfjorden. There's no hum of a refrigerator, no ping of a notification. Just the creak of the old jetty below, the faint slap of water against the rocks, and the kind of quiet that most people have to travel a long way to find. This is Sømsveien 150 — and that silence is the whole point. Set on a generous 1,913-square-meter lot at Søm, a few kilometers east of Kristiansand city center, this 1955-built cabin is the real thing. Not renovated into something Instagram-ready. Not dressed up with a Scandi-minimalist interior. It's a genuine Norwegian fritidsbolig — a leisure property in the old tradition — with its own private shoreline, a working jetty in the sheltered bay below, and direct water access to one of the south coast's most navigable archipelagos. Properties like this, with private coastal access this close to a major Norwegian city, almost never come available. When they do, they go fast. The path to the cabin is part of the experience. About 250 meters from the registered parking space, you walk down through the landscape and arrive somewhere that genuinely feels removed from ordinary life. The cabin itself is compact at 42 square meters — that's by design, not by accident. An entrance hall greets you first, with a ladder climbing up to a loft where two simple beds and storage space tuck under the low eaves. The main bedroom below has a 1.5-width bunk and a single bunk, sleeping a small family or a couple who've brought friends along for the weekend. The kitchen is honest and functional: enough counter space, enough storage, everything you need ... click here to read more

The cabin and outbuilding in the center of the image – jetty facility in the bay below to the left

Friday afternoon. You lock the door of your Oslo apartment, walk four minutes to Åneby station, and by the time you've finished your coffee on the train, the city is already behind you. Birch trees line the tracks. The platform empties out. And when you push open the door at Stubben 7, the only sound is wind through the pines and, if you time it right, the faint knock of a woodpecker somewhere up the slope. That's the rhythm this place sets for you. Hakadal sits in the Nitelva river valley, north of Oslo in Viken county, and it has the kind of quiet that people from the capital spend years searching for and rarely find this close to home. Thirty minutes by car. Less than forty by train. Yet standing on the south-facing terrace here, looking out over a nearly 1,900 square metre freehold plot edged by forest, you'd never guess a city of 700,000 people was just down the road. This is a genuine Norwegian cabin — a hytte in the truest sense — and it delivers exactly what that word promises. The chalet itself is compact and considered: 38 square metres of well-arranged living space that includes an entrance hall, a bright living room, kitchen, bathroom, and bedroom, plus a furnished loft that has for years served as a second sleeping area. The footprint is honest about what it is. This isn't a space for hosting dinner parties; it's a space for long mornings with strong coffee, damp hiking boots drying by the stove, and evenings where the biggest decision is whether to read or play cards. That's the point. The wood-burning stove in the living room is the heart of the place. On a grey October Saturday, when the mist sits low over the tree line and you've just come back muddy from the trails, that stove earns its keep in a way ... click here to read more

EIE eiendomsmegling v/ Emilie Rønvik presents Stubben 7!

Step outside on a February morning and the only sound is the creak of snow-laden pine branches. The thermometer reads minus twelve. Inside, the open fireplace is already crackling, the coffee is on, and through the frost-edged window you can see the Hallingdal valley glowing copper in the low winter sun. This is what owning a vacation home in Ål actually feels like — and once you've spent a week here, the idea of not owning one becomes genuinely hard to justify. Set along Fekjastølvegen, a quiet mountain road that winds up toward the Myset plateau at roughly 893 meters above sea level, this 75-square-meter chalet was built in 1980 and carries the kind of honest Norwegian craftsmanship that newer holiday properties simply can't replicate. Exposed timber, wooden paneling worn smooth by decades of mountain life, an entrance hall that still smells faintly of spruce — these are details that don't come from a catalogue. The building is in good condition throughout, which means you can arrive with skis on the roof and a bag of groceries and be settled in by nightfall, without a renovation project waiting for you. Inside, the layout is straightforward and sensible: an entrance hall leads into a hallway, then opens into the living room where the open fireplace is the undisputed centerpiece. On a clear evening, with the fire going and the mountains dark outside the large windows, this room earns every square meter. The kitchen is functional and well-configured for the way people actually use a mountain cabin — you're not hosting dinner parties for twenty, you're cooking pasta after a long day on the trails and eating with people you like. One bedroom, one bathroom. Enough. What makes this property genuinely interesting for a bu ... click here to read more

Privatmegleren Hallingdal v/ Merethe Jonsen presents Fekjastølvegen 204

Step outside on a February morning and the groomed ski trail is right there, maybe thirty meters from the front door, threading through the birch forest toward Ottdalskammen. The smell of woodsmoke from last night still clings to your jacket. That's the daily reality of owning at Storligrenda 11 in Lønset — a four-bedroom log chalet in the Storlidalen valley that has been quietly doing its job for almost eighty years without any drama. Lønset sits in the Oppdal municipality of Trøndelag, a region that Norwegians have known about for generations but that international buyers are only starting to properly discover. Oppdal itself is less than a two-hour drive south from Trondheim on the E6 — Norway's main north-south artery — and the drive through Drivdalen is one of those routes that makes you slow down even when you're running late. The nearest airport is Trondheim Lufthavn Værnes, with direct flights connecting to most major European hubs. Oslo Gardermoen is roughly four hours by road or under three by train, which puts this corner of the Norwegian mountains well within reach for a long weekend from anywhere in Europe. The chalet itself was built in 1945 in traditional Norwegian log construction — the kind of joinery that gets stronger and tighter as the decades pass rather than weaker. A thoughtful renovation in 1995 updated the interior without stripping out the character, and further kitchen improvements between 2012 and 2014 brought it properly into the modern era. Windows were replaced between 2010 and 2014, which matters enormously at altitude in February. The fireplace insert was replaced in 2025, so you're not inheriting somebody else's heating problems. The cabin was last stained in 2022. None of this is accid ... click here to read more

Welcome to Storligrenda 11 and this fantastic leisure property! Photo: Interior photo by June Haukdal

Step outside on a July morning and the fjord is so still it looks painted. The air carries salt and pine resin in equal measure. Your coffee goes cold because you keep stopping to watch a cormorant dry its wings on the rocks below the boathouse. This is Finnsetveien 131 — a well-kept 2008 cabin on the Trøndelag coast that gives you direct access to both a private boathouse and a registered marina berth, sitting on a 1,292-square-metre plot where the grass runs practically to the water's edge. Åfjord is the kind of Norwegian municipality that doesn't make international headlines, which is precisely the point. The Fosen peninsula juts into the Trondheim Fjord like a thumb, and Åfjord occupies its outer edge — exposed enough to feel genuinely coastal, sheltered enough that the water in the coves is swimmable from late June through August. The nearest city is Trondheim, roughly 90 minutes by car via the E39 and the Brekstad ferry, or a scenic coastal drive that takes longer but makes you feel like you've earned the weekend. The local shop at Åfjord centre is a ten-minute drive, and a bus stop is six minutes on foot — practical anchors when you're staying for weeks at a time rather than just popping by. The cabin itself clocks in at 63 square metres of actual living space, and the layout earns every square centimetre. The open-plan living room and kitchen runs to about 31 square metres, which sounds modest until you're standing in it with the large south-facing windows throwing afternoon light across the oak worktops of the IKEA kitchen — a setup that works hard and looks clean, with a full oven, induction cooktop, dishwasher, and refrigerator all included. The wood-burning stove in the corner does the work on shoulder-seas ... click here to read more

Aktiv Eiendomsmegling v/Thomas Lerstadgrind presents Finnsetveien 131

Step outside on a July morning at Sydengveien 110 and the first thing you notice is the silence—not the dead kind, but the alive kind. Wind through the birch trees. A distant gull. The faint smell of low tide drifting up from Sørengkilen, just a five-minute walk down the path. This is Vesterøy life, and once you've had a taste of it, a regular apartment in the city starts to feel like a compromise. Hvaler is a stretch of islands at the mouth of the Oslofjord, about 120 kilometers south of Oslo and a world away from it in every meaningful sense. Vesterøy is one of the largest islands in the archipelago, connected to the mainland by road through the Hvaler tunnel, making it reachable year-round without ferries or timetables. Families from Oslo, Fredrikstad, and Gothenburg have been coming here for generations, drawn by the smooth granite skerries, the clear shallow waters, and the particular quality of light that bounces off the fjord on a long Scandinavian evening. This two-bedroom chalet on Sydengveien sits on a generous freehold plot of roughly 1,302 square meters, which is a genuinely rare thing on Hvaler. The garden is a mix of mown lawn, mature trees, and the bare Norwegian bedrock that pushes up through the ground in that characteristically dramatic way—all of it private, all of it yours. Kids can run the full length of it without getting close to a fence. Adults can find a quiet corner that no neighbor can see into. Both things matter. The chalet itself was built in 1964 and has been updated in careful, practical increments rather than gutted and renovated beyond recognition. The bones are solid. A Decra roof went on in 2016. Large sliding doors replaced the old terrace opening in 2015. The two bedrooms got new ... click here to read more

The wood stove is still warm from the night before. You pull open the glass terrace door and step into the sheltered courtyard — frost on the planks, coffee in hand, the white peaks above Torvtjønn catching the first light of a January morning. That's what owning a cabin at Kullenvegen 6 actually feels like. Not a postcard. A life. Rauland doesn't advertise itself loudly. It doesn't need to. Tucked deep in Telemark county, roughly three hours by car from Oslo via the RV37, it has quietly remained one of Norway's most authentic mountain communities — a place where the locals ski to the shop in winter and swim in glacier-fed lakes in July without making a fuss about either. This cabin sits right inside that world. The property is built in an atrium style, which sounds architectural but translates to something genuinely practical: the main cabin and the outbuilding wrap around a sheltered inner courtyard that catches the afternoon sun while keeping the wind out. In a region where weather can shift quickly, this matters more than any amount of south-facing decking. You'll use this space. A fire pit here on a clear October evening, the sky going amber over the Hardangervidda plateau, kids running in from the treeline — this is the corner of the property that guests will never want to leave. The interior is 86 square metres, which sounds compact until you're inside. The entrance hall is tiled and fitted with a large sliding-door wardrobe — crucial when you're juggling ski gear, hiking boots, and wet layers for four people — and it opens into a living room that earns its central role. Large windows face the terrace and the view beyond, and the room is anchored by a central fireplace that you'll light every single evening bet ... click here to read more

DNB Eiendom v/ Jeanette Arnesen-Eriksrød presents Kullenvegen 6!

Stand on the south-facing terrace at Rabbevegen 14 on a February morning and the silence hits you first. Not the absence of sound—the presence of it. Wind brushing over the Jotunheimen foothills. A crow somewhere up near the treeline. The soft crunch of a neighbour's skis disappearing around the bend. Then you look up and there's Bitihorn, the mountain that defines this corner of Valdres, sitting right there at the end of your garden like it's been waiting for you. This is Beitostølen at its most real. Not the postcard version—the actual version, where 970 metres of altitude gives the air a quality you notice in your lungs before your brain catches up. The chalet at Rabbevegen 14 sits in the Stakkstølie area, at the quiet end of a cul-de-sac that sees almost no through traffic, on a 1,559 square metre plot that feels genuinely private by Norwegian mountain standards. It's a two-bedroom cabin of 61 square metres—thoughtfully proportioned, not cramped—and it's in good condition, move-in ready, with cross-country ski trails accessible directly from the property and the Beitostølen Alpine Center just a short ride away. Winter here is the main event, but only if you haven't seen it in autumn. From late September through October, the birch forest that rings the upper village turns a colour somewhere between amber and copper that photographers drive hours to capture. The hiking trails that in winter become groomed ski tracks are, in those weeks, yours almost entirely. The route up to Bitihorn from the Beitostølen plateau is around 12 kilometres return and delivers views on a clear day that stretch to Juvass and Galdhøpiggen in the far north. Come back to the chalet, light the cast iron fireplace in the living room, and the ev ... click here to read more

Step onto the veranda at Bjørkodden on a July evening and the fjord is right there — flat, silver, and impossibly wide — while the mountains on the opposite shore still hold patches of snow above the treeline. The outdoor fireplace crackles behind you. Someone's inside making coffee. This is what northern Norway actually feels like, and it rarely comes with a private shoreline attached. Sitting in Seines, a few minutes south of Narvik on the E6, this two-bedroom chalet has been quietly doing its job since 1985: giving whoever's lucky enough to own it a front-row seat to one of the most dramatic fjord landscapes in Nordland. The plot runs a full 1,000 square meters from the road edge down to the water, ending at a shoreline of smooth rocks and pebble beach that you'll share with no one. A private path threads through the lawn and mature trees straight to the water's edge, where a kayak slides in as easily as a fishing line does. The 46-square-meter veranda wraps around the main living area in two modes: a covered section that keeps the rain off during shoulder season, and an open deck that catches every hour of the midnight sun in June and July. This is where mornings actually happen here. Coffee, the sound of the fjord, maybe a cormorant low over the water. No neighbors visible through the trees. An outdoor fireplace means the veranda stays usable well into September, when the birch trees turn gold and the hiking trails on Fagernesfjellet — the mountain that towers directly above Narvik — are at their absolute finest. Inside, 70 square meters of interior space is well-organized for a holiday home. The open-plan kitchen, dining, and living area all face the fjord, and the large windows in the living room do what you'd ... click here to read more

Cozy cabin at Bjønnåsen with ample space and a beautiful location in scenic surroundings.

Step outside on a January morning and the ski trail is right there — groomed overnight, quiet, running straight into the forest before the rest of the world wakes up. That's the reality of owning at Hammarseterhøgda 117 in Sjusjøen, one of the Innlandet region's most genuinely loved year-round mountain destinations. No lift queues. No hour-long drives in ski boots. Just coffee, layers, and off you go. The chalet sits on a 1,000 m² leased plot on Ringsakerfjellet, the long ridge that locals have been escaping to for generations. Built in 1996 and extended since, it had a full new roof fitted in 2025 — not a patch job, a proper replacement — which matters enormously in a climate that throws serious snowfall and freeze-thaw cycles at a building for five months a year. At 84 m², the single-level floor plan is compact enough to heat quickly but generous enough for three bedrooms and seven sleeping spots, which means you can fill it with family or invite a group of friends without anyone drawing the short straw on accommodation. The living room is where this chalet earns its keep. A soapstone fireplace anchors the space — soapstone holds heat far longer than cast iron, radiating warmth for hours after the fire has died down, so you're not feeding it logs all evening. Wooden floors and wall paneling in the traditional Norwegian hytte style give the room that particular warmth that no amount of Scandi-minimalist interior design can quite replicate. Big windows face the surrounding forested hills, and when the light is good — especially on those crystalline February afternoons when the snow reflects everything upward — the room feels twice as bright as it has any right to. Sliding straight from the living room onto the 50 m² s ... click here to read more

Imagine lazy afternoons spent basked in sunlight in your own private courtyard while the fresh mountain air invigorates your senses.
