Description

Nestled in the enchanting locale of Husarö, the property at Långviksvägen 9 offers a unique opportunity to embrace the serene lifestyle of Sweden’s stunning archipelago. Just about an hour's travel from the bustling city of Stockholm, this charming country home offers both tranquility and convenience—a perfect escape for foreign buyers and expats looking to immerse themselves in the Swedish countryside.

The property sits on the picturesque island of Eskön, part of the larger collective of islands and islets that make up the archipelago. Life on Husarö is idyllic, offering a slower pace of life that many young families, retirees, or even entrepreneurs can appreciate. The island bursts with lush scenery, colorful flora, and serene beaches where one can enjoy the crisp, fresh air and the sound of the waves.

This country home is affluent with features that promise comfort. The main house includes two well-appointed bedrooms; perfect for intimate family living or entertaining weekend guests. Interestingly, one of these bedrooms is housed within a charming guest house, offering extra privacy. The 70 square meters of living space have been thoughtfully designed for easy living. The heart of the home is surely the large open kitchen area, renovated in 2020 with materials from Marbodal. Here, meal preparation becomes a joyous occasion, especially with the seamless flow of the open plan that encourages gathering together.

Imagine firelit gatherings in the cozy living room, made more atmospheric by the presence of a fireplace—a must for chilly evenings. Just steps from here is a large, elevated terrace where sunny days turn into spectacular al fresco dining experiences or relaxing afternoons with a book in hand. As you indulge in everyday island life, know that modern conveniences are not forsaken. Essentials such as a renovated bathroom featuring underfloor heating and a washing machine offer catch-ups in comfort.

A few ingenious features add further value to the home:
- Private well for water supply
- Private sewage with a 3-chamber septic tank
- Fiber optic internet allows for reliable connectivity
- A dedicated boat berth, tailor-made for those keen to explore the surrounding waters at their leisure

While the property itself is in fine condition and ready for occupancy, living on Husarö extends far beyond the walls of your home. The island provides ample opportunities for leisurely outdoor activities. Whether it's enjoying a picnic on the seamless beaches, kayaking in the tranquil waters, or taking a stroll across nature trails offering stunning vistas, the outdoors is yours to explore.

The climate in and around Husarö is one of contrasts, giving you a taste of all four seasons in their full glory. Summers are mild and pleasant, perfect for boating, swimming, or exploring the nature rich landscapes. Winters, though chilly, provide a cozy atmosphere as you enjoy the warmth of your home’s fireplace. It is a climate that will certainly suit buyers from various corners of the world, eagerly searching for a breath of fresh air combined with the promise of adventure and serenity.

Activities abound both on and off the island; every weekend can be a new holiday. With water activities like fishing heavy in demand and the rich cultural excursions Stockholm offers a short distance away, life in Husarö is anything but monotonous.

As a busy real estate professional with expertise in handling diverse international clients, I can guide you through the considerations of purchasing this unique slice of Sweden. I understand both the allure of the archipelago lifestyle and the practicalities of real estate transactions for foreign buyers. Owning a country home here means investing in a lifestyle where paradise is your backyard and relaxation is part of your daily routine.

In conclusion, Långviksvägen 9 accommodates those in tune with nature, those desiring peace, and those ready to write their own story amidst one of the world's most breathtaking natural landscapes. This home is ready for you, whether you're planning to settle year-round or use it as an idyllic holiday retreat, offering a dwelling to cherish for a lifetime. Let's discover together what dreams you can build here.

Early morning in Värmland, the lake is completely still. You slide open the glass door of the sunroom and step out with a cup of coffee, and the only sound is a loon calling somewhere across Rådasjön. The birch trees along the shore are doing that thing they do in late summer — that soft shimmer when the light catches them just right. This is what Ås 47 feels like from the inside. Set on a 1,212-square-metre plot stepping down to the water's edge outside Hagfors, this 1964-built country home has been maintained in genuinely good condition — no project, no major surprises. The main house covers 45 square metres across three rooms and a kitchen, which sounds modest until you understand how the layout works. Space here is measured differently. The sunroom extends the kitchen outward toward the lake, functioning as a second living area for most of the warmer months. The workshop opens onto a stone terrace right at the waterline. The guest cottage runs independently of the main house entirely. You're not buying 45 square metres — you're buying a small compound. Inside the main house, the wood-burning stove in the living room is the centerpiece it deserves to be. On a grey October afternoon, with rain coming off the lake and the fire going, that room earns every bit of the cliché people usually reach for. The kitchen combines an induction cooktop with a traditional wood stove — the induction for speed, the wood stove for the smell, the ritual, and the Swedish pancakes on Sunday morning that genuinely taste different when cooked over wood. The glass-enclosed sunroom off the kitchen is oriented to catch morning and midday light across the water. It will become the room where your family spends most of its time.

There's a particular kind of quiet you notice first. Not silence exactly—more like the sound of a stream doing its thing just beyond the tree line, a woodpecker somewhere in the pines, and absolutely nothing else demanding your attention. That's what mornings feel like at this 1960s log cabin on Varledavägen, sitting on nearly eight thousand square meters of Swedish countryside outside the village of Rånäs in Norrtälje municipality. It's the kind of property that doesn't need to announce itself. Built in 1964 from traditional notched log construction, the cabin has the bones of something genuinely old and genuinely Swedish. At 33 square meters, it's compact and honest about what it is—a retreat, not a mansion. The living room holds a fireplace that has warmed countless winter evenings, and the kitchen runs on a wood-burning stove that makes coffee taste different somehow, better. There's a sleeping loft overhead, which is the kind of sleeping arrangement that turns adults back into children—you climb up, the ceiling is low, and the whole world outside goes quiet. Behind the loft, a concealed hatch opens into a large attic for storage, which any serious cabin owner will tell you is worth its weight in gold. The WC with a water toilet is functional and convenient for overnight stays and long summer weekends. The property is being sold with a disclaimer clause, so it's worth going in with clear eyes: the fireplaces haven't been recently inspected, and the water pump needs attention. For a buyer who wants a turnkey holiday home, this needs work. For a buyer who wants to spend a few weekends putting their own hands on something and end up with a property that feels truly theirs—this is exactly that kind of opportunity.

Step outside on a Saturday morning and the first thing you notice is the quiet. Not the performative quiet of a city park, but the real kind — just wind through spruce trees, a woodpecker somewhere off in the treeline, and the faint shimmer of the lake catching early light through the birches. That's the daily opening scene at this compact country home in Järfälla, Borås kommun, sitting on its own modest hill with 632 square metres of land and more than enough breathing room. At 36 square metres, this is not a property you're going to fill with furniture you don't need. It's been built around a different kind of logic — one where the covered outdoor patio does half the living, where the open fireplace earns its keep from October through April, and where a good night's sleep comes without much effort at all. The single bedroom is calm and private, the bathroom simple and functional, and the kitchen sensible enough that cooking a proper Swedish husmanskost dinner — pan-fried perch from the lake, boiled potatoes, dill — feels like the most natural thing in the world. The patio deserves its own mention. Facing out over the garden and the rolling green beyond, it becomes the gravitational centre of the property the moment temperatures climb above ten degrees. Long midsommar evenings here, with the sky refusing to go dark, have a way of stretching dinner into something that lasts until midnight without anyone noticing. Come autumn, the same spot catches the afternoon sun long after the surrounding farmland has gone amber and rust. The plot gives you real options. If you've ever half-seriously talked about growing your own vegetables, this is where that idea stops being theoretical. There's room for raised beds, a small gree ... click here to read more

At five in the morning in late June, the sun has already been up for two hours. You walk barefoot across the dewy meadow, coffee in hand, following a faint path through the grass that ends at the water's edge. The lake is completely still. A heron lifts off from the reeds without a sound. This is what mornings look like at 'Udden' — and once you've had one, it's very hard to go back. The property sits in Håbol, a quiet parish in Dals-Eds kommun in the heart of Dalsland, one of Sweden's least-discovered but most rewarding regions. 'Udden' is the name that's been attached to this plot since military records first documented it in the mid-1600s, when the Swedish allotment system placed soldiers on parcels of land like this across the countryside. The cottage that stands here today carries traces of that era — low doorframes, thick walls, the particular silence of old wood — while a thoughtful renovation in recent years has brought it properly into the present without stripping out any of the character that makes it worth owning in the first place. The total land holding spans 82,100 square meters — just over eight hectares — taking in roughly three hectares of mixed forest, a hectare of arable land, and generous open meadow. And then there's the shoreline. Five hundred meters of private waterfront is not something you come across often at this price point, or at any price point. It runs along the edge of the plot with gentle slopes down to the water, wide enough to pull up a rowing boat, set out a dock, or simply claim your own quiet stretch of Sweden that nobody else can touch. Dalsland doesn't get the tourist traffic of Dalarna or the Bohuslän coast, which is precisely why people who discover it tend to become fiercely ... click here to read more

Close your eyes and picture this: it's a July morning in Värmland, the light already sharp and golden by seven, and you're standing barefoot on a timber deck with coffee in hand while the treeline holds its silence. No traffic. No sirens. Just the occasional wood pigeon and the smell of pine resin warming in the sun. That's Norum 417 on an ordinary Tuesday. On a good day, it's even better. This is a proper Swedish countryside home in Molkom, a small community in Karlstads kommun that most international buyers haven't discovered yet—which is exactly why it's worth paying attention to. Set on a 2,529 square meter plot, the 1967-built main house sits at 60 square meters and is joined by a separate guest house and a timber outbuilding, giving the property a genuine sense of purpose and space without tipping into the maintenance burden of something much larger. At €118,000, it's the kind of buy that makes financial sense before you've even started dreaming about the summers. Lake Gapern is walkable. Not "driveable and then a short walk"—actually walkable from the garden gate. In summer, Swedes take their swimming seriously, and Gapern delivers: clear water, pine-fringed shores, and the kind of afternoon light that makes every swim feel unhurried. Come back, rinse off, fire up the grill. That's the rhythm of a Molkom summer, and this property slots into it naturally. Inside, the open-plan kitchen and living room is where the house earns its keep. The kitchen has proper wooden cabinetry—the warm, unpretentious kind—with a window seat overlooking the garden that catches the afternoon light in a way that makes you want to sit there with a book and not move. The living room flows directly from it, large enough for a generous so ... click here to read more

Early morning on Stillingsön, the light comes in sideways off the water — that particular Nordic gold you only get in July, when the sun barely dips below the horizon. You're standing in the kitchen of this 1909 farmhouse, coffee in hand, watching a pair of horses move through the dew-wet pasture outside. Three kilometers down the road is a beach. Three kilometers the other way, a golf club. And here, right here, is 2.7 hectares of your own Swedish countryside. This is Orust. Sweden's third-largest island, tucked into the granite-and-saltwater chaos of the Bohuslän coast, roughly 90 minutes north of Gothenburg by car. People who know it, love it with a quiet ferocity. People who don't know it yet tend to stumble across it on the way to somewhere else and end up staying. The property at Allmag 547 sits on Stillingsön, one of Orust's more sought-after corners, and it's the kind of place that's genuinely hard to categorize. It's a working horse property with a four-box stable. It's a country retreat with old-growth trees and open meadows. It's a holiday home ten minutes from some of the best wild swimming on the Swedish west coast. All of these things are true simultaneously, and that versatility is exactly what makes it so unusual on the current market. The house itself was built in 1909, and it wears its age well — not in a theatrical, over-restored way, but in the way of a building that's been genuinely lived in and properly maintained. Sixty-five square meters. Two bedrooms, one bathroom, a kitchen, and a living room arranged in that unfussy, logical way that older Swedish rural homes tend to be. The rooms are bright — large windows on multiple aspects, the kind that bring in the long summer light until almost midnig ... click here to read more

Picture this: a Saturday morning in late June, the kind where the Swedish summer sun is already warm by seven, the air carrying the faint smell of cut grass and lake water. You step out the front door of your 1945 cottage at Sjöbo Sommarstad 66, coffee in hand, and the only sounds are birdsong and the distant laughter of kids heading down to the Almenäs bathing area. This is what you bought it for. Not a hotel room, not a package holiday. This. Sjöbo Sommarstad is one of those places that Borås locals know about and quietly keep to themselves. Tucked alongside the Viskan River on the western edge of the city, the area has been a summertime gathering point for Swedish families for generations — a patchwork of well-tended cottage plots, fruit trees heavy in August, and neighbors who nod hello and actually mean it. Number 66 sits here with a kind of quiet confidence. Built in 1945 and maintained in good condition, the cottage has the bones of a proper Swedish sommarstuга: red-painted timber, a masonry fireplace that radiates warmth on cool June evenings, and just enough space for life to feel unhurried. The footprint is compact — around 50 square meters across 3.5 rooms — but the layout works hard. The living room centers itself around that brick fireplace, and on the evenings when the temperature dips after sunset, you'll be grateful for it. Swedish summers can surprise you. The kitchen is functional and honest; it doesn't pretend to be anything it isn't, but it has everything you need to put together a proper midsommar spread or a weekday dinner of freshly caught perch. The dining area sits adjacent, framed by garden views, and breakfast here on a clear morning is worth more than any restaurant terrace in the city cente ... click here to read more

Step inside on a Tuesday morning in late June, when the light in Västra Götaland does something it only does in summer — it just stays, pale gold and horizontal, filtering through the old kitchen window at six in the morning and still hanging around past ten at night. The cast-iron wood stove ticks quietly. Outside, two hectares of open farmland stretch toward a treeline of birch and spruce. Nobody is coming down this road today unless they mean to. That's Holmen 2. A hundred-year-old Swedish country house sitting on just over three hectares of its own land, about ten minutes outside the small town of Högsäter in Färgelanda municipality. It's the kind of place that takes a minute to fully compute — the scale of it, the quiet, the way the barn's dark timber bulk anchors the yard like it's been there since before memory, because it essentially has. The house itself dates to 1920 and carries its age with confidence rather than apology. Inside the living room, the original log walls have been stripped back and left exposed — not as a design statement, but because whoever did it clearly understood that this is what the house actually is underneath. Run a hand across those logs and you're touching construction from a century ago, still solid. The wood-burning stove in the corner is the social center of the room in October when the first cold front rolls in from the Norwegian plateau. It makes the space feel earned, not decorated. The kitchen runs on a wood-fired stove too, and this isn't a gimmick. In a house this age, with this setting, cooking over wood makes complete sense — it heats the room, it slows down the morning, and it produces a smell that no gas burner ever will. Two bedrooms and roughly 60 square meters of liv ... click here to read more

The alarm doesn't go off here. You wake up because the light does — a low Arctic gold sliding across the water at 5am in July, spilling through the bedroom window of the main cottage while the rest of the island is still quiet. Grab a coffee, walk twenty steps to the dock, and watch a pike break the surface of Bäckfjärden. That's the morning. Every morning. This is an island property in the Skellefteå archipelago, about 40 kilometers from the city center, and it is one of the most complete turnkey holiday retreats you will find anywhere in northern Sweden. Complete is the right word — the boat is included, the furniture stays, and the mainland garage with a private dock is part of the deal. You arrive, you unpack, and you start living. The main cottage sits at roughly 90 square meters, used across most of the year rather than just a short summer window, which tells you something important about how it's built. A 2024 air-source heat pump handles the shoulder seasons efficiently, backed up by two wood-burning stoves that turn October evenings into something you actually look forward to. Radiators throughout mean you're not chasing warmth from room to room. The windows have been swapped out gradually over the past 15 years for maintenance-free units — small detail, big difference when you're an owner who isn't always on-site. Step outside and the property keeps going. A separate guest cottage of around 20 square meters has its own kitchenette and a south-facing terrace, which means visiting family members get genuine privacy rather than a fold-out sofa situation. Two insulated cabins — friggebodar in Swedish, each around 10 square meters and both wired for electricity — handle the overflow: a teenage kid who wants their ... click here to read more

Close your eyes and picture this: it's a Saturday morning in late June, and golden light is already streaming through the conservatory glass at half past five. You're holding a mug of coffee, watching a roe deer pick its way across the meadow at the edge of the garden. The birch trees are doing that thing they do in a Swedish summer — practically glowing. This is Norrhenninge 47, a three-bedroom country home on a 2,566 square metre plot in Edsbro, and mornings like that one come with the keys. Edsbro sits in Norrtälje municipality, deep in the Roslagen coastal region northeast of Stockholm — an area that Stockholmers have been escaping to for well over a century. And with good reason. The landscape here is classic uppland: rolling farmland, pine and birch forest stitched together, glittering lakes never more than a few kilometres away. It doesn't shout for attention. It just quietly holds you. The house itself was built in 1977 and sits on elevated ground, which gives the whole property a sense of openness you don't often find at this price. Sixty-one square metres inside is compact but genuinely well-planned — the kind of layout where nothing feels wasted. A wood-burning stove anchors the living room, both practically and emotionally. Light a fire on a grey October evening, pour something from a local Roslagen brewery, and you'll understand immediately why Swedes talk about the concept of mys with such conviction. It's not hygge's Swedish cousin — it's its own thing entirely, and this house was built for it. The conservatory is the real seasonal wildcard. Enclosed and glass-fronted, it extends the usable living space for a much longer stretch of the year than you'd expect. In May, when the mornings are still sharp bu ... click here to read more

Early July morning in Dalarna. You pour coffee in the kitchen, push open the window, and hear nothing but birdsong and the soft creak of pine trees. Somewhere down the trail, Lake Amungen is still glassy and cool. By noon, your cousins will arrive and fill the guest cottages; by evening, someone will have caught a perch worth bragging about. This is the rhythm that Dalstuga Björnstigen 7 makes possible — a rare Swedish country property with a main cottage, four separate sleeping cabins, a boathouse share, and nearly 2,000 square meters of open land tucked into Rättviks kommun, one of Dalarna's most quietly celebrated corners. The main cottage clocks in at 57 square meters — compact, yes, but genuinely well-used space. A wide hallway leads into a shower room, and then the living room opens up around a fireplace that earns its keep on October evenings when the forest goes amber and the temperature drops fast. The family room adjoining it has built-in bunk beds, which means kids have their own territory and you don't have to negotiate sleeping arrangements at 11pm. The kitchen is practical, with real counter space — the kind of kitchen where you actually cook, not just heat things up. What makes this place exceptional, though, is the compound quality. Four additional sleeping cottages of varying sizes each have their own electricity connection, so family groups or friends can come and go with some independence. Add a storage barn, an outdoor toilet, and several outbuildings, and you have a property that handles large gatherings without anyone feeling crowded. It also connects to the main electricity grid and draws summer water through an easement arrangement with a neighboring property. The sewage system is the property's ... click here to read more

Stand at the edge of the plot on a June morning and the only sounds are birdsong, the distant hum of a tractor somewhere beyond the tree line, and the soft creak of the old barn settling in the warmth. That's Ytternäs in Edsbro — a corner of Uppland that most Swedes know only as a blur of pine forest glimpsed from a car window, but those who stop here tend to stay a long time. Sparrtorpsvägen 26 is not a turnkey property. It's something more interesting than that. Two residential houses, a 1930s barn built from timber that was already old when your grandparents were young, and 3,769 square metres of open Swedish countryside — all sold as a single holding. If you've ever sketched out plans for a small family compound, a weekend retreat that could actually grow into something over the years, or a rural base in Scandinavia that gives you room to breathe and the freedom to build something on your own terms, this is worth a serious look. The second house — the one in usable condition right now — has a room and kitchen on the entry level, both warmed by a wood-burning stove, and a summer room upstairs that catches the long northern light beautifully from around May through September. It's simple. Honestly, very simple. But simplicity up here isn't a deficiency; it's the point. The bones are honest, the proportions are liveable, and a buyer with a clear vision and some patience will find it responsive to careful renovation. The interiors are a blank slate — no ornamental distractions, just space and possibility. The first house is older — likely late 19th or very early 20th century — with three rooms and a kitchen, including a traditional tiled kakelugn on the upper floor that adds real character. The roof has suffered from ... click here to read more

You step off the small motorboat, tie the line to your own dock, and the only sound is water lapping against the hull and a pair of oystercatchers arguing somewhere in the reeds. That's your arrival. Every time. Toharen Island, tucked inside the Gävle archipelago roughly five minutes by boat from the mainland at Sikvik, operates on its own rhythm — and after one summer here, you'll wonder how you ever unwound anywhere else. This is a genuine Swedish island holiday property: compact, honest, and surrounded by more sky and water than most people see in a year. The main cabin sits on a freehold plot of 1,340 square meters, and at 25 square meters it doesn't pretend to be anything other than what it is — a place to sleep well, eat simply, and spend the rest of your waking hours outside. One bedroom, a living room with large windows that pull the birch canopy and the water's glitter directly into the room, a kitchenette for morning coffee and late-night snacks after a long day on the water. The layout is tight but considered. Nothing wasted. What the numbers don't tell you is the feeling of those windows on a midsummer morning when the light arrives around 3am and fills the room long before you're ready to wake up. Or the way the dock planks warm up fast in June so you can sit with bare feet dangling over the water before breakfast. Summers in Gävle run warm and long — July averages hover around 20°C, and the archipelago catches enough sun to make the swimming genuinely good from late June through August. The water here isn't the glacial shock people expect. It's brackish, calm in the sheltered coves, and by July it reaches temperatures that make you want to stay in. Beyond the main house, the property gives you real flexi ... click here to read more

At five in the morning in late June, the Gulf of Bothnia goes completely still. The light at Kalvarsskatan doesn't arrive so much as it reveals itself — a slow amber spill across the water that starts around 3am and just keeps going. Standing on the private jetty at this 1-bedroom holiday home in Hörnefors, coffee in hand, you realize this is a kind of quiet that most people only read about. This is Västerbotten, and it earns every superlative Swedes save for their most beloved places. The property at Kalvarsskatan 5 sits directly by the sea on a freehold plot of 1,478 square meters, with the treeline of the boreal forest pressing in close behind the house and open water stretching out in front. The main house — compact, practical, built in 1970 and kept in good condition by careful owners — measures 38 square meters of honest living space. One bedroom, one bathroom, and an open kitchen that flows into the living room without pretense. The layout isn't grand. It doesn't need to be. The large windows do most of the work, pulling the sea inside and making the room feel three times its size on a bright Norrland summer day. The terrace off the main house is where mornings actually happen. Birch pollen on the breeze in May, the smell of pine warming up in July sun, frost-crisped air and aurora discussions over a late October schnapps. The terrace faces the water and gets the kind of exposure that means you're outside more than you planned every single visit. The guest cottage is separate — genuinely useful, not a marketing afterthought. It gives visiting family actual privacy, or frees up the main house for a couple while children pile into their own space. Some buyers will use it as a studio or a gear room for kayaks, fi ... click here to read more

Exterior view of the house and garden

Step outside on a July morning and the air smells like pine resin and salt water. The meadow at the edge of the plot is still damp with dew, a heron stands motionless somewhere beyond the treeline, and the only sound is the soft creak of the conservatory door as it swings open. This is what owning a holiday home in the Sankt Anna archipelago actually feels like—and once you've had it, a city apartment never quite satisfies again. Built in 2009 on a generous corner plot of 2,352 square meters just outside Valdemarsvik in Sweden's Östergötland county, this two-bedroom country home is the kind of place that rewards you differently in every season. The address is Varphagen Ermedal 5, and it sits at the quiet inland edge of one of Scandinavia's most celebrated coastal wilderness areas. Priced at 169,500 EUR, it's a realistic entry point into a corner of Sweden that still feels genuinely unspoiled. The interior is compact but well thought out. At 70 square meters, the house doesn't waste a single square meter. The open-plan living room and kitchen anchors the ground floor with a soaring ceiling that pulls light down from above and makes the space feel far larger than the footprint suggests. A wood-burning stove sits at the center of it all—come September, when the archipelago evenings cool down fast, you'll understand exactly why it was put there. Large glass sections open the living room directly onto the terrace, so in summer the line between inside and outside simply dissolves. You cook with the door open. You eat outside until ten at night because the Swedish summer light won't let the sky go dark. The glazed conservatory is a serious bonus. It adds usable space across almost the full shoulder seasons—May, August, late ... click here to read more

Step outside on a Saturday morning in Sättra By and the first thing you notice is the silence. Not an uncomfortable silence — the kind that actually has texture. Wind moving through birch trees. A woodpecker somewhere in the treeline. The faint crackle of a fire you're about to light in the pizza oven before lunch. This is Roslagen, a stretch of Swedish countryside northeast of Stockholm that Swedes themselves quietly consider one of the most liveable corners of the country. And this three-bedroom country home on Saxenvägen 75 sits right in the middle of it. The property dates to 1965 and has been kept in genuinely good condition — not flipped and photographed, but actually cared for. At 67 square metres, it's compact in the best sense: every room earns its place, nothing is wasted, and the layout flows naturally between the open living and dining area, the functional kitchen, and the three bedrooms tucked away from the main living spaces. Large windows face the garden, which means the inside of the house is full of green light most of the day. In summer, the boundary between indoors and out practically dissolves. The wood-fired sauna is one of those features that sounds like a nice extra until you've actually used it in late October, when the air outside has that particular sharp coldness and the birches have gone gold. Panoramic windows face the forest — you're not staring at a fence, you're watching the trees. After a long drive up from the city, or an afternoon of paddling on one of the nearby lakes, this is where the week resets itself. Right beside it sits the custom-built pizza oven, which sounds indulgent until you realize it becomes the social core of every weekend gathering. Friends arrive Friday evening, som ... click here to read more

You wake up to absolute quiet. Not the muffled silence of a city apartment with double glazing doing its best — actual quiet, broken only by a wood pigeon somewhere in the birches and the distant smell of salt air drifting in from the Baltic. That's the morning at Orranäs 443. It takes about thirty seconds to remember why you bought this place. Set on a generous 1,535-square-meter plot along the coastal stretch between Torhamn and Kristianopel in Sweden's Blekinge county, this 1935-built country home has been thoughtfully updated into something genuinely liveable across all four seasons. It's a proper house — 104 square meters over two floors, three bedrooms, a modernised bathroom, a real kitchen — not a summer shack with a camp stove and a prayer. The winterisation is done right, which matters more than people realise until their first November in coastal Sweden. The ground floor sets the tone immediately. A wide kitchen with a dedicated dining area runs along the back of the house, large windows pulling in the light that Blekinge gets in abundance from May through September. You can sit at the table with a cup of coffee and look out over the open fields while someone else starts breakfast. That kind of morning becomes a habit fast. The kitchen has modern appliances and storage that actually works — no squeezing condiments into impossible corners. The adjacent living room is the kind of space that earns its square footage, comfortable enough for a rainy Tuesday in October and sociable enough for eight people with wine glasses on a midsummer Saturday. The bathroom on the ground floor was recently renovated and shows it: clean lines, modern fixtures, no compromises. Upstairs, three bedrooms each look out over countrysi ... click here to read more

At five in the morning in July, the sun hasn't gone down since yesterday. It hangs low and amber over the Gulf of Bothnia, throwing copper light through the birch trees at the edge of the garden, and you're already awake — not because you have to be, but because Seskarö does something to your sleep cycle. You stop fighting time up here. You start living by light instead. That's the pull of Bladviken 5. A two-bedroom country home on one of northern Sweden's quieter islands, sitting on a 1,975 square metre plot just a hundred metres from the shoreline. The water is right there — you can smell it through the kitchen window in the morning, that cold, clean salt-and-pine combination that doesn't exist anywhere further south. The house itself is 63 square metres of honest, practical Scandinavian living. Wooden walls, natural light coming in at all angles, and a floor plan that doesn't waste a centimetre. It's not enormous, but it's thoughtfully arranged — the kind of layout where you always know where everyone is, where conversations drift naturally from the kitchen to the living room without anyone having to raise their voice. Two bedrooms handle a couple or a small family comfortably. The single bathroom is functional. The kitchen is set up for actual cooking, not just reheating things — and when you're coming back from a morning on the water with fresh-caught perch or Baltic herring, that matters. What extends the property's real usefulness is everything outside the main house. Multiple outbuildings sit across the generous plot, and they're the kind of practical structures that Swedish island life actually calls for. There's room for a proper sauna setup — this is Norrbotten, after all, and a summer evening without a sau ... click here to read more

The sun hits the top of the mountain at Sandviken before it touches anywhere else on Blidö. By the time the rest of the island stirs, you're already on the upper terrace with a coffee, watching the light spread across the water below. That's not a small thing. That's the reason this house was built exactly here, on the highest point of the hill at Morkullevägen 12, facing south, catching every hour of daylight Sweden's long summers can offer. The main house went up in 2020, designed by an architect who clearly understood that good design in the archipelago means working with the landscape, not against it. The roofline follows the natural rock, the multi-level terrace of roughly 250 square metres steps down the hillside in stages, each platform carved to make the most of the granite beneath it. When you're barbecuing on the lower deck as the evening light turns the inlet gold, you're not standing on a flat slab bolted to the earth — you're sitting inside the landscape itself. Inside, the first thing you notice is the ceiling. Five metres of open space overhead, with a glulam beam running the length of the room that gives the interior a warmth no painted surface could replicate. The kitchen is genuinely well-equipped — two ovens (one with steam function), a large induction hob, built-in microwave, a dishwasher with extra capacity — the kind of setup that makes cooking for eight people on a Friday evening in July feel like a pleasure rather than a project. Underfloor heating runs through the hallway and bathroom, the air-to-air heat pump handles both warming and cooling depending on the season, and the construction itself is energy-efficient enough that the electric bedroom radiators rarely need switching on. This is a ho ... click here to read more

Situated at Styrsnäsvägen 15, this villa stands proud in the heart of Sweden's renowned archipelago, offering an enticing prospect for overseas buyers seeking a slice of Scandinavian paradise.

5-room winterized holiday home on Styrsnäsvägen 15, Blidö, Norrtälje kommun

The first thing you notice on a summer evening at Hysängsvägen 36 is the light. It comes low and golden off the Furusundsleden strait, cuts through the pine trees, and lands across the west-facing deck in a way that makes you want to pour something cold and simply sit. That's the rhythm of life on Yxlan — unhurried, quiet in the best possible sense, and astonishingly close to Stockholm. Yxlan is one of the outermost accessible islands in the Norrtälje archipelago, connected to the mainland by a free car ferry that runs year-round. It's not the kind of place that ends up on tourist lists. Swedes who know the archipelago well tend to keep it to themselves. The island sits where the inner skerries give way to open Baltic water, and on clear mornings you can smell the sea before you even step outside. The property on Hysängsvägen sits in the Hysängen area, a pocket of the island where the plots are generous and the neighbors are close enough to wave to but far enough that you can't hear their conversations. The main house is 72 square meters — not large, but used well. The open-plan living room and kitchen share a single bright space with big windows on the western side, which means afternoon light fills the room naturally without any effort on your part. Direct from the living room, a large wooden deck stretches out to meet the garden. The deck is where you'll spend most of your time in June, July, and August — eating, reading, watching the light change. It faces west, which in the Swedish archipelago summer means you're outside until ten at night without a jacket. Two bedrooms in the main house keep things practical. They're quiet rooms, good for sleeping deeply after a day on the water or a long hike through the island ... click here to read more

Nestled in the heart of the Stockholm archipelago, this exquisite 1930s villa on Blidö Island offers a unique blend of historical charm and modern convenience. Located at Borgövägen 3, this property is a haven for those seeking a tranquil yet vibrant lifestyle, surrounded by the natural beauty of Sweden's coastal landscape.

This villa, spread over three thoughtfully designed floors, is more than just a home; it's a lifestyle. The main floor welcomes you with a spacious hallway, leading into a grand dining and living area. Here, a wood-burning stove adds a touch of rustic charm, perfectly complementing the modern kitchen appliances.

Upstairs, the private quarters provide two generous bedrooms, ensuring restful nights and peaceful mornings. A smaller room, currently a walk-in closet, offers flexibility as a home office or nursery. The master bathroom, fully tiled and elegantly designed, completes this floor, providing a sanctuary of comfort and style.

Front view of the villa

Step outside on a July morning and the first thing you notice is the light. Out here on Yxlan, it hits differently — bouncing off Yxlömaren lake just 350 metres down the track, filtering through the old apple trees at the garden edge, warming the west-facing terrace before most of Stockholm has had its first coffee. That terrace, with its outdoor spa already in place, is where you'll spend a disproportionate amount of your time here. Trust that. Yxlan sits in the northern Stockholm archipelago, part of Norrtälje kommun, and it carries that particular quality of Swedish island life that people from the city spend years trying to find. Not the polished resort version. The real kind — where a country store in Köpmanholm sells pickled herring and the ferry to the mainland runs on a timetable that politely refuses to rush you. The island is connected by road and by Waxholmsbolaget ferry from Yxlövik, a few kilometres from Österviksvägen, plus Bus 632 runs several times daily between the island and the mainland. Practical, quiet, close enough to everything, far enough from the noise. The house at Österviksvägen 44 was built in 1955 and has been brought up to year-round standard — proper insulation, heating systems that handle a Swedish February without complaint. That matters more than people expect when they first start thinking about archipelago property. A summer cabin is one thing. A place you can escape to in November, light a fire, and watch the frost settle on the meadow outside — that's a different category entirely, and this property sits firmly in it. Inside, the layout is compact but genuinely usable. Three rooms plus kitchen spread across 66 square metres: a kitchen with a dedicated dining nook that handles four ... click here to read more

Nestled within the enchanting embrace of Yxlan, a quaint island in the Swedish archipelago, lies a charming country home located at Österviksvägen 36. At first blush, this picturesque retreat captivates with its promise of both serenity and adventure, a compelling combination that attracts those seeking a harmonious balance between rustic life and contemporary convenience. Imagine winding down country roads, flanked by lush greenery and gentle waves lapping at the shoreline. As you approach the property, you’re met by a delightful home radiating warmth and charm, inviting you to explore its myriad of offerings. Now, if you're like most folks eyeing a cozy getaway in Sweden, time's usually tight. Heck, I've got a packed schedule myself trying to help everyone find their dream slice of paradise here! But let me tell you, this one deserves a moment of your busy day. The house, a respectable 70 square meters, feels anything but cramped. Its layout cleverly maximizes space, drawing light and life into every corner. Step into the living room and you can already foresee evenings by the fireplace, turning the pages of a novel or engrossed in a lively conversation with loved ones. Step outside onto the south-facing terrace and you’ll find a perfect place to greet the crisp morning air or unwind at sunset with a cool drink in hand. As for the kitchen, well, it's ready for your culinary exploits. Stock it with fresh, local ingredients from the nearby ICA store, and engage in some creative cooking with the ample workspace and storage that await your invention. And if nights of sleep are a precious commodity on your radar, you'll appreciate the two cozy bedrooms, designed to offer a restful retreat after a day spent exploring or ... click here to read more
