A 1920s Home an Hour From Copenhagen – $157,000

Midway between Næstved and Fuglebjerg, in the cozy village of Hyllinge, this charming villa is the kind of home that’s easy to fall in love with. Built in 1920, the house wears its history with pride. Exposed ceiling beams, mullioned windows, panel doors, and beautiful floors quietly tell their story, while a thorough modernization ensures everyday comfort meets today’s standards.

The home’s square meters are spread across two floors and feel more generous than the numbers suggest. From the entrance, the layout opens naturally to the kitchen, which connects seamlessly to the spacious living room, an inviting heart of the home where the family can gather around the wood-burning stove. When you need even more room to breathe, the conservatory extends the living space with light and views of the garden.

With good rooms on both floors and a furnished landing upstairs, the home offers plenty of interior design options, whether you dream of a home office, a cozy reading nook, or extra space for guests. A comfortable, well-appointed bathroom completes the interior.

If outdoor living matters to you, this garden will feel like a dream come true. The enclosed grounds are rich with plantings and dotted with delightful features: a greenhouse, a fireplace, a small cabin, a garden pond crossed by a tiny bridge, and winding paths that lead to hidden seating spots, including the famously nicknamed “dad’s beer bench.” Beyond the hedge, the view opens wide over rolling fields, giving a wonderful sense of space and calm.

Practical needs are well covered, too, with two outbuildings for storage and a large garage that has room for both a utility area and a workshop.

Hyllinge offers everyday convenience, with a walkable distance to an integrated daycare institution and a school up to sixth grade. From here, older children can easily continue to Næstved or Fuglebjerg, both just a short drive or a brisk bike ride away.

Cycling, in fact, may quickly become a favorite pastime. From Hyllinge, you can connect directly to Fodsporet, a 48-kilometer paved nature trail stretching between Næstved, Skælskør, and Slagelse, perfect for family outings, daily exercise, or peaceful rides through the landscape.

The house is listed for sale at Nybolig.
