Description
This charming log cabin, located in the scenic area of Trautskogen/Bruvoll in Innlandet, Norway, offers a unique opportunity to own a well-maintained and inviting retreat just over an hour from Oslo. The property is part of a friendly and well-run cabin community, surrounded by lush nature that bursts with berries and mushrooms, including chanterelles and funnel chanterelles. The area is ideal for outdoor enthusiasts, with fishing and swimming lakes nearby, cross-country ski trails and sledding hills in winter, and hunting opportunities in the autumn.
The property consists of three buildings and a large terrace that connects them, creating a cohesive and functional outdoor living space. The main cabin is approximately 27 square meters and features a cozy kitchen nook equipped with a gas cooktop and gas refrigerator, a dining area with seating for six, a small sofa corner, and a sleeping alcove. There is also a small loft for storage. The cabin is heated by a wood-burning stove or a gas heater, and you can charge your mobile devices using the installed solar panel. There is good mobile coverage in the area. Water is sourced from a water station about 50 meters from the cabin, and there is a driveway with parking for two cars directly behind the property.
The annex, measuring about 14 square meters, provides additional sleeping space with room for a double bed and a custom-built bed along one wall, making it perfect for accommodating family or guests. The third building is a storage shed/toilet room of approximately 7 square meters, housing a composting toilet (not a traditional outhouse), offering a more comfortable and environmentally friendly solution.
A newly constructed terrace of about 80 square meters (built in 2024-2025) ties the buildings together, providing ample space for outdoor dining, relaxation, and enjoying the tranquil surroundings. The lot itself is a gently sloping natural plot of 1,000 square meters, offering privacy and a true sense of being immersed in nature. The property is leasehold, with an annual ground rent of 1,883 NOK.
The cabin community is known for its peaceful atmosphere and proximity to a variety of outdoor activities. In winter, you can access prepared cross-country ski trails just 1.9 km away, and in summer, the nearby lakes are perfect for swimming and fishing. The area is also a paradise for mushroom and berry pickers, and there are excellent hiking opportunities in the surrounding forests and hills. Public transport is accessible, with a bus stop just five minutes away, and grocery stores are about 20 minutes by car.
The property has been well cared for, with all three buildings stained on the exterior in 2023 and painted/stained on the interior in 2024. The owners have addressed any issues that have arisen during their ownership, ensuring a good overall standard. While there is no mains electricity or water, the solar panel provides basic power needs, and the proximity of the power line (15-20 meters from the cabin wall) offers the possibility of connecting to the grid if desired. Several other cabins in the area have drilled wells, so this is also an option for future owners. Drinking water is currently fetched from a communal water house just 50 meters away.
The municipality has granted permission to fell several large trees on the plot, which are marked but not yet cut down, giving the new owner the freedom to manage the landscape as they wish. The terrace was built after consulting with the municipality, who indicated that it did not require a building permit.
Access to the property is straightforward: from the E6, turn towards Trautskogen/Strandlykkja, then after about 9.6 km, turn left onto Tjernliveien. After 300 meters, keep right and follow the road to a locked gate. For viewings outside of scheduled times, you can park at the gate and walk approximately 450 meters to the cabin. The property is about 20 minutes from the E6, making it easily accessible for weekend getaways or longer stays.
This cabin is perfect for those seeking a peaceful retreat in nature, with the convenience of being close to Oslo. Whether you enjoy skiing, hiking, fishing, swimming, or simply relaxing in a beautiful natural setting, this property offers it all. The combination of a cozy main cabin, spacious annex, practical storage/toilet building, and a large connecting terrace makes it ideal for families, couples, or anyone looking to escape the hustle and bustle of city life. The friendly cabin community, abundance of outdoor activities, and the potential for further customization make this a rare and attractive opportunity.
