A Lakeside Home in Central Sweden for $215,000

Set at the very end of a quiet road in the sought-after area of Ryggen, this lakeside property offers the kind of peaceful setting that rarely comes onto the market.

Surrounded by nature and with uninterrupted views across the water, it combines the tranquility of a traditional Scandinavian retreat with the comforts needed for year-round living. Just 15 to 20 minutes from central Falun, it provides an idyllic escape without sacrificing everyday convenience.

Built in 1993, the main house offers 114 square meters of living space plus an additional 50 square meters of secondary area, spread across one and a half floors with a basement.

Designed with a solid year-round standard, the home is equally suited as a permanent residence or a holiday getaway. Large windows frame the surrounding landscape, while the elevated position ensures beautiful lake views from many of the living spaces.

The outdoor areas are designed to make the most of the property’s exceptional location. A sunny balcony, spacious terraces and an easy-care garden gently lead down to the water’s edge, creating inviting places to relax throughout the day.

At the shoreline, a private jetty provides direct access to the lake, making it easy to enjoy morning swims, peaceful afternoons on the water or leisurely boat trips during the warmer months.

Inside, the home has been continuously maintained and updated. The kitchen was refreshed in 2019, while the balcony received a complete renovation with new flooring and railings during the same year.

An outdoor shower was also added, making it easy to rinse off after a swim in the lake. More recent improvements include the replacement of both the hydrophore pump and the air-source heat pump in 2024, contributing to efficient and comfortable living in every season.

The basement adds valuable extra space and features a private sauna, offering a relaxing place to unwind after a day spent outdoors. Everyday practicality is also well considered, with a dishwasher, washing machine, a drilled private well supplying water, and a three-chamber septic system with infiltration.

Complementing the main residence is a charming lakeside cottage offering approximately 38 square meters of living area and 21 square meters of additional space.

Although it is not winterized and the drainage system is not approved for permanent use, it presents excellent potential as guest accommodation for visiting family and friends.

The cottage also includes an attached storage area and an underground cellar that offers further possibilities for improvement. Renovation work has been carried out on an ongoing basis, giving future owners the opportunity to continue enhancing this versatile outbuilding.

Occupying a generous 3,540-square-meter plot, the property enjoys exceptional privacy thanks to its position as the last home along the road. The combination of mature surroundings, direct lake access and ample outdoor space creates an atmosphere that feels both secluded and welcoming.

The house is listed for sale at LF Fastighetsförmedling Falun.
