Sparkling newly built house close to city & nature | Cottage in Älvsjö

This sparkling clean home, built in 2018, offers a private patio and garden in a peaceful neighborhood close to central Stockholm.

Enjoy crisp walks among autumn colors or return to a warm, inviting space after exploring snowy and magical Stockholm. Reach T-Centralen in 25 minutes by train/bus and Stockholmsmässan in just six.
This newly built house can comfortably accommodate four people but can sleep up to six. The dining room table also seats six, perfect for shared meals and cozy gatherings. The house has a good-size bedroom with two 90 cm beds and a loft bedroom with a comfortable double bed. The loft is easily accessible by ladder from the living room, and the sofa in the living area can be transformed into a futon bed for two.
Our house is cleaned by an experienced cleaning company before your stay, and all linens are professionally laundered. This property is located in a peaceful area away from the city center — a perfect place to enjoy the calm of nature during the beautiful fall and winter months. Here, you can unwind surrounded by Stockholm’s golden autumn colors or snowy winter landscapes, yet remain close enough to shops and the city when you feel like venturing in. There’s so much to do around our property, and I’m excited to share all the local and hidden seasonal gems with you!
We’ve designed the house’s architecture to harmonize with the natural surroundings. The gray and silver-colored roof blends with the nearby birch trees, while the window section facing the street matches the main building’s style. The large glass panels facing the garden bring in maximum light and a sense of connection to the outdoors — especially magical when the first snow falls or when autumn leaves drift past. With a 40 sqm floor plan and a spacious sleeping loft, the house feels open yet intimate. It includes a roomy bathroom and a separate master bedroom.
The kitchen is fully equipped with a dishwasher and all essentials for your cooking and baking needs — ideal for preparing warm drinks or holiday meals after a day exploring the crisp Swedish air. The living room and kitchen share an open-plan layout, creating a welcoming space to gather and relax. The bathroom is warm, modern, and well-ventilated. Free Wi-Fi and TV are included.
Our home is fully winter-insulated, with double-glazed windows and energy-efficient appliances to keep you warm and comfortable. Whether you’re looking for a peaceful fall escape or a cozy winter holiday surrounded by nature, this home offers a perfect balance of modern comfort and seasonal magic.
