High above the valley, on a quiet ridge in Bergsviken, lies Gunnarsgården – a spacious Swedish farmhouse with sweeping views across Svenstavik, Lake Storsjön and the distant silhouette of Hoverberget.

From the house, the landscape unfolds in layers: forest in the foreground, the village resting in the valley below, the shimmering lake beyond, and mountains on the horizon. The light shifts throughout the day, and every season transforms the view – from deep winter snow and golden autumn forests to the endless brightness of Nordic summer evenings.

Though surrounded by nature, everyday conveniences are just a 10-minute walk downhill to Svenstavik, where you’ll find grocery stores and essential services. It is a rare combination: elevated privacy and expansive views, yet close enough to walk to the village.

A Home with Space and Character

Gunnarsgården offers approximately 200 square meters of living space and comfortably accommodates 8–10 guests. The house is set on a farm property at the edge of the forest, providing peace and open surroundings.

Inside, the atmosphere is both elegant and welcoming. Carefully chosen antique furniture blends with comfortable seating and generous social areas. This is not a minimalist rental, but a home with history and warmth – a place where you can sit in a deep armchair with a book, gather around the dining table for long dinners, or simply enjoy the quiet.

Large windows frame the landscape and fill the house with natural light. The layout allows both togetherness and privacy, making it ideal for extended families, groups of friends, or two families traveling together.

A Year-Round Retreat

Gunnarsgården is beautiful in every season.

Winter

The region transforms into a peaceful winter landscape. Several ski resorts, including Klövsjö and other popular mountain destinations, are within 30 km. Cross-country skiing opportunities are nearby, and returning to the farmhouse after a day in the snow – perhaps lighting candles and settling into comfortable chairs – becomes part of the experience.

Spring

Spring arrives quietly on the ridge. The forest awakens, the air turns crisp and clear, and peaceful walks begin right outside the door.

Summer

Summer brings long, luminous days and late sunsets. Lake Storsjön, visible from the property, offers swimming spots and small beaches nearby. The surrounding countryside invites hiking, cycling and unhurried exploration. Evenings can be spent outdoors, watching the light slowly fade over the valley.

Late Summer & Autumn

This is berry and mushroom season – a beloved Scandinavian tradition. The forest begins just beyond the property, offering opportunities to gather blueberries, lingonberries and chanterelles. The autumn colors across the ridge and lake create a particularly striking landscape.
