Description
Nestled on its own private island in the serene Hajern Lake, Bakkevika 157 offers a unique opportunity to own a slice of Norwegian paradise. This charming cabin, located in the picturesque town of Hvittingfoss, is the perfect second home for those seeking tranquility, adventure, and a deep connection with nature. Imagine waking up to the gentle sounds of water lapping against the shore, surrounded by lush forests and the crisp, clean air of Norway's countryside.
A Haven for Nature Lovers
The cabin's location on a secluded island ensures complete privacy, making it an ideal retreat for those looking to escape the hustle and bustle of city life. With no neighbors in sight, you can fully immerse yourself in the natural beauty that surrounds you. The island's gently sloping shoreline and sheltered coves provide excellent sun exposure throughout the day, perfect for sunbathing, swimming, or simply relaxing with a good book.
Outdoor Adventures Await
For outdoor enthusiasts, the area offers a plethora of activities year-round. In the summer, the crystal-clear waters of Hajern Lake are perfect for swimming, fishing, and kayaking. The surrounding forests are crisscrossed with hiking trails, offering endless opportunities for exploration and wildlife observation. As winter blankets the landscape in snow, the nearby mainland transforms into a winter wonderland, with groomed cross-country ski trails just a short distance away.
A Cozy and Functional Retreat
Built in 2012, the cabin is thoughtfully designed to maximize comfort and functionality within its compact 32 square meters. The interior features two cozy bedrooms, each equipped with custom-built bunk beds, making it ideal for families or small groups. The living room is bright and airy, with large windows that frame stunning views of the lake and forest. The open-plan kitchen is simple yet practical, allowing you to prepare meals while enjoying the company of family and friends.
Sustainable Living
The cabin is equipped with a basic electrical system powered by solar panels, ensuring a sustainable and eco-friendly lifestyle. While the current setup is sufficient for most needs, there is a prepared power cable to the island for those who wish to expand the electrical system further.
Rustic Charm with Modern Comforts
The property includes a newly constructed terrace, perfect for dining al fresco or soaking up the sun. The outdoor toilet and storage shed add to the rustic charm, while the spacious lot provides ample space for outdoor activities and relaxation.
Convenient Access to Amenities
Despite its secluded location, Bakkevika 157 is within reasonable distance of essential amenities. The nearest grocery store is just an 18-minute drive away, and public transportation is accessible within 12 minutes from the mainland. This balance of seclusion and convenience makes it easy to enjoy the best of both worlds.
