Manor house with a royal touch
Brunsberg Herrgård 1, Brunskog Arvika, offers invited €1,090,000 (SEK 12,000,000)
Living area 550 + 85 m², plot 40,771 m² (4.1 ha)
Even arriving at Brunsberg's Herrgård (manor house) is something special. When the wrought-iron gate opens and the old avenue of trees leads you to the house, you feel it: here nature, history and quality of life have found one another. The manor's history goes back to 1859, and in 1885 King Oscar II stopped here for a royal dinner on his journey along the old King's Road to Norway.
That splendour surrounds the property to this day.
The park-like garden is a living work of art. The present owners have created several "green rooms": in front of the entrance a classic round bed greets you in full bloom, and long borders of peonies, roses, lilies, hydrangeas and phlox frame the terraces. Box hedges, gravel paths and a romantic hedge walk to the pavilion: from spring to autumn, colours and scents take turns here.
Come in! The entrance hall welcomes you in grand style: a curving solid-wood staircase, chandeliers, a log fire and original plank floors, preserved. 13 rooms on around 550 m², carefully renovated with great respect for the origins of the house, combine classic elegance with modern comfort.
The kitchen is the warm heart of the house. Copper pots hang by the open fire of the freestanding kitchen island, the cast-iron stove recalls times of great feasts, and yet nothing is missing that makes cooking comfortable today.
To table! The dining rooms of the house invite you to festive dinners: crystal chandeliers, white Gustavian chairs, a white tiled stove. Here every dinner becomes a little royal banquet.
Generous reception rooms follow one after another. Nine tiled stoves and four open fireplaces spread character and cosiness throughout the house, all year round. Enjoy the suites of rooms, high ceilings, wide wooden floorboards and space even for a grand piano.
Withdraw to the library for quiet hours, with floor-to-ceiling bookshelves, fireplace and leather sofa, or work in the bright study with a view of the garden.
On the upper floor you will find the bedrooms, a generous dressing room and a bright living hall with a wall of books at the top of the stairs.
The bathrooms are fitted with love: a freestanding cast-iron bath under the sloping ceiling, marble and terracotta, a rain shower, and a sauna of its own is not missing either.
In the cellar waits a vaulted wine cellar built of natural stone, a dream for wine lovers. There are also practical utility rooms with plenty of storage and a historic stone baking oven.
Floor plans
For your guests there is a guest house of its own with 85 m² and an open fireplace, rustic and cosy with log walls and a four-poster bed.
Several outbuildings belong to the estate, including a historic storehouse from around 1800. A fitness cabin of its own, fresh eggs from the farm and private forest paths make for an active life in and with nature.
Life is lived outdoors here too: on the plot you will find several lovely seating areas, a well-equipped outdoor kitchen under a covered pavilion, terraces with a fire pit and outdoor fireplace, and a charming garden pavilion by the river.
The river on the property leads to the Värmeln: swimming, boating and fishing await in beautiful natural surroundings, and a bathing spot is included. Cast your line!
Brunsberg lies in the county administrative board's designated cultural area, a recognition of the unique historical and cultural value of this place.

The location
Brunskog in western Värmland
Brunsberg is a lively municipality with strong community spirit. A summer café, local events and cultural life create a warm atmosphere all year round. At the same time there are good connections to Arvika and Karlstad, which makes the location attractive for commuters too.
The area has an industrial history that reaches far beyond Värmland:
In the days of the ironworks, Brunsberg was a centre of craftsmanship and metalwork. Iron from Brunsberg has been traced as far as the Eiffel Tower in Paris. So the name of this place carries a piece of world history, and whoever lives here lives right in the middle of it.
