The other day, someone asked me "I am moving to Sweden and looking for somewhere in the South, with beautiful countryside, beaches and lots of culture, but also that's not far from a village or town." Luckily two different areas popped up in my head - one was Kullaberg - where my parents-in-law live, and a place I covered extensively in this travel guide. And the other was Österlen.
Famous for its light, Österlen has been a popular destination for artist for hundreds of years and the countryside is absolutely beautiful. This pretty cottage, in Löderup is fairly near Sandhammaren beach, known for it's incredible white sands and clear waters. The quirky interior is testimony to the creative scene you so often find in the area, and yet it also has a serene feel to it thanks to the soft shades not dissimilar from the tones seen in the sand, shells and sea of the nearby beach.
A few weeks ago we had the pleasure of Beppe taking us around his Swedish family home and today I'll hand over to Snowy (*not his actual name, to be honest, I'm not sure what it is, but he sure is cute) for the tour!
Thank you so much for the tour Snowy! You've certainly sold it to me.
I love the quirky touches and the incredible view from the outdoor dining area. Naturally, I couldn't resist looking more into the property, and it's only a 15-minute cycle ride to the beach. Perfect!
Is there anything that stood out to you about this lovely Swedish house?
perhaps you'd like to be reminded of some other beautiful homes I've shown from Österlen in the past? Who could forget:
Marianne's beautiful country home (you can also find her Stockholm city home here)
We're experiencing a very late summer heatwave here, and aware that it could be the last heat we have for a very long time, everyone is heading outside at every opportunity - myself included!
I hope it's sunny where you are too!
