What luck — and twice over! On this well-kept lakeside property, two houses await you: the red Swedish villa and the guest house, usable all year round. From the garden your gaze travels between pines and birches across the lake.
The garden is a gem: terraced beds, boulders and open rock outcrops structure the wide lawns, which slope gently down to the lake.
Come on in! Up the broad veranda steps you enter the bright hallway — clinker floor with underfloor heating and room for coats.
Kitchen and living room are the natural heart of the house: a bright space, open up to the ridge, with large glass sections and double doors to the terrace. The soapstone fireplace gives cosy warmth on cooler days. The kitchen is fully equipped with cooker, oven, extractor hood, dishwasher, large fridge and freezer and a built-in microwave. The room offers plenty of space for a dining table and sofa group.
From the living room, the allrum (Swedish multi-purpose room) opens up, with its own door to the terrace. The large bedroom has a dressing room and its own seating area outdoors; there is also a smaller bedroom and a through room that is currently used as a study.
The fully tiled bathroom with underfloor heating has a shower, WC, washbasin, washing machine and dryer — and your own sauna just behind the glass door.
Enjoy the summer on the partly covered terrace with glass balustrade facing the lake, on the sun deck or at the seating area by the bedroom.
The second piece of luck is right next door: the guest house with 72 m², completely renovated in 2015 - 2016 and winterised — usable all year round. The kitchen-living room with central soapstone stove is fully equipped, the tiled shower room has underfloor heating, and the sleeping loft is under the roof. Heating is by oil-filled radiators and the wood-burning stove. From the long covered veranda you look out over the lake. Right by the guest house you will find the woodshed and several storerooms; a carport with a separate, insulated storeroom and a garden shed also belong to the property.
Exhaust-air heat pump (installed 2015) with partly water-based underfloor heating, plus the soapstone fireplace.
Triple-glazed windows.
Own water well all year round, own drainage. Water treatment.

The main house was converted and extended in stages in 2015 - 2018 and has had its current form since 2018.

Bidding process
Thanks to the favourable exchange rate, we can currently offer you properties at attractive prices. For popular properties, however, there will be a bidding process after the viewing. The highest bidder usually gets the deal, but the seller alone decides who may buy the property.
Of course, we are also on hand to advise you here.
