A Renovated 1920s Cottage on South-Sweden’s East Coast – $246,000

This rare and beautifully maintained house from 1929 is a place where timeless charm meets a truly exceptional natural setting.

Tastefully renovated with great respect for its history, this home offers a harmonious blend of classic character and modern comfort, surrounded by forest, close to the sea, and completely free from nearby neighbors.

The house features a country-style kitchen, wooden floors, barred windows, and an elegant tiled stove that together create a warm, authentic atmosphere. Here, everyday life unfolds in peace and privacy, with blueberries growing on the plot, the forest just steps away, and the jetty and natural rock pool so close you can reach them in your bathrobe. The natural plot of approximately 1,500 sqm offers both beauty and potential, with space for a shed or future projects if desired.

On the entrance floor, you are welcomed by a dreamlike country kitchen, beautifully styled with linden green cabinetry and painted paneling. A generous dining area makes this the natural gathering place for meals, conversations, and long evenings.

The living room is filled with light from two directions and features a functional wood-burning stove, adding both warmth and character. From here, you step out onto a cozy balcony—perfect for quiet mornings or relaxed summer evenings. A shower room and separate toilet are also located on this floor, both equipped with underfloor heating for added comfort.

The upper floor offers two charming bedrooms, both with classic wooden floors. One bedroom features a traditional tiled stove (currently under a fire ban), while the other has built-in beds that enhance the home’s cozy, timeless feel.

With a living area of approximately 78 sqm spread across two floors, the house is thoughtfully planned and easy to enjoy year-round. Together with the generous plot and unique surroundings, it creates a special place for those who want to live close to nature without compromising on character or comfort.

During the summer months, the current owner has successfully rented out the house to tourists, generating a good additional income, making this property attractive both as a private retreat and an investment. A boat mooring may also be taken over, at a cost of approximately 2,500 SEK per year, owned by the nearby campsite.

Bjursund Horsviken is set in a scenic and tranquil area just outside Loftahammar, surrounded by sparkling archipelago waters and lush forests. The area is characterized by a mix of holiday homes and villas, many with beautiful waterfront locations, creating a peaceful and welcoming environment.

Loftahammar itself offers a charming archipelago lifestyle, with a golf course, marina, restaurants, cafés, a grocery store, and a health center. In summer, the village comes alive with boating, visitors, and coastal activities. There are also excellent swimming spots, hiking trails, and opportunities for fishing and boat excursions throughout the archipelago.

The drive to Västervik takes about 45 minutes and offers access to a wide range of shopping, culture, and entertainment, while Linköping is approximately 90 kilometers away, with its extensive services and amenities.
