A Renovated House with Sea Views in North Norway – $189,000

Set in the peaceful village of Kongsvik in Tjeldsund municipality, this cozy detached house combines a quiet setting with beautiful views of the surrounding landscape.

Built in 1955 and significantly upgraded over the years, the three-bedroom home sits on a generous plot of more than 1,200 square meters, with the sea, fields and mountains all close by.

The house is well set back from the main road, creating a private, family-friendly setting with plenty of outdoor space. Despite its rural surroundings, everyday necessities are conveniently close. A kindergarten, 24-hour general store and gas station are all within walking distance, making this a practical option for both permanent living and a countryside retreat.

The detached house offers 115 square meters of internal usable space, arranged across two main floors. Its practical layout includes four rooms, three of which are bedrooms, with the sleeping quarters gathered together on the upper level.

On the first floor, the entrance hall leads into the main living spaces. The living room offers plenty of space for relaxing and spending time together, while the kitchen sits separately beside it. A bathroom is also located on this level, and stairs from the hall lead up to the attic floor.

Upstairs, a hallway connects the home’s three bedrooms. Keeping all the bedrooms together on one floor gives the house a straightforward, functional layout that suits family life. Additional storage is available below the main living areas, where the crawl space contains three separate storage rooms.

While the house dates from the mid-1950s, several important improvements were carried out between 2008 and 2021. These upgrades included a new roof, exterior cladding, windows and exterior doors, giving the property several substantial updates while retaining the character of an older home.

Outside is one of the property’s greatest assets. The house stands on an owned plot of 1,238 square meters, with a large garden and open outdoor areas that provide plenty of space for gardening, play and summer gatherings. The property also has 55 square meters of terrace and balcony space, making it easy to enjoy sunny days and the impressive sea views.

The setting adds considerably to the appeal. Kongsvik is surrounded by varied northern Norwegian scenery, with the sea, open fields and several mountain peaks forming part of the landscape. Hiking opportunities begin almost at the doorstep, offering easy access to nature year-round.

The house is listed at EIE Eiendomsmegling Harstad.
