Two Small Lakeside Cottages in South West Norway for $204,000

Surrounded by mountains, fresh air and uninterrupted views of Røldalsvatnet, these two charming detached homes offer a peaceful retreat in one of western Norway’s most scenic landscapes.

Set in an idyllic rural location, the property combines historic character with generous outdoor space, creating an appealing opportunity for anyone dreaming of life closer to nature.

Built in 1907, the freehold property sits on a plot of approximately 825 square meters, with lawns and sheltered outdoor areas providing space to relax, garden, or simply enjoy the changing seasons. Thanks to its elevated setting, the home also benefits from excellent sunlight and beautiful views across the lake and surrounding mountains.

One of the property’s biggest advantages is its collection of additional buildings. A traditional barn and loft provide substantial extra space, including a separate living area of around 35 square meters that could serve a variety of purposes, from guest accommodation to a creative studio or hobby room.

A firehouse and woodshed further enhance the property’s practical appeal, offering valuable storage and workspace.

In total, the property provides an impressive 209 square meters of usable area, including 123 square meters of external usable space, making it well suited for those seeking room for outdoor pursuits, workshops or future projects.

The surrounding area is equally appealing for anyone with an active lifestyle. Just a short drive away, the Røldal Ski Center offers both alpine skiing and cross-country trails during the winter months, while nearby Røldalsvatnet provides opportunities for swimming, fishing and boating throughout the warmer seasons. Hiking trails, mountain scenery, and the tranquillity of the Norwegian countryside are all on the doorstep.

The main house offers 86 square meters of internal living space spread across three floors, with a practical four-room layout that includes one bedroom.

While the home retains its traditional character, it also presents an opportunity for new owners to renovate and personalize the interiors, creating a home that reflects their own style while preserving the charm of the original building.

The property is listed for sale with Nordvik Hardanger.
