In the small, idyllic village of Skovballe on Sydtåsinge, you'll find this beautiful, historic house from 1877 with its thatched roof and nostalgic atmosphere. The house is surrounded by a large, enclosed garden, so there's plenty of space for your family or friends to enjoy the peace and quiet in the peaceful, rural surroundings.
Inside, you can embrace modern comforts while enjoying the flea market finds and retro details in the decor, which is in keeping with the house's history. The living room has a vaulted ceiling, so the dormer window on the first floor brings in light, while the red tiled floor and exposed ceiling beams add a rustic touch. Let the kids play in the cozy loft, or gather around the dining table with the beating bench full of board games.
On the beautiful southwest-facing wooden terrace, soak up the sun and feel the idyllic atmosphere as the horses graze in the meadow adjacent to the garden, while the large lawn invites you to play and sunbathe. Enjoy a quiet moment in the shade on the bench under the tree, or bake bread over the embers in the fire pit. If you dream of a special nature experience, it's not far to the Monnet protected area, which is Funen's largest salt marsh with rich plant and animal life around the small beach lakes and tidal channels.

Our names are Pia and Poul and we live in Copenhagen. A few years ago, we went looking for a peaceful retreat in rural surroundings for our family of four and fell in love with the small village of Skovballe on Sydtåsinge. In particular, we fell for the blacksmith's old house from 1877, which now forms the framework for our life in the countryside. The house has a rich history, which has been well documented by the previous owner and has included regular visits from Dirch Passer. We have put a lot of energy into updating the house both inside and out, and after a few years we think we have created the house we dreamed of, so we can now primarily relax and enjoy the fruits of our labor. We are happy to be able to share this space with others.
We have several favorite places that are close to the house. At the small marina, Skovballe Havn, an enthusiastic city guild has been behind the establishment of a nice, permanent jetty, so you can easily jump into the waves over the stone-free sandy bottom. It's super cozy and we like to meet more of the locals in the afternoon. In the harbor there are also plenty of opportunities to fish for crabs. We also like to visit the farm shops and roadside stalls in the area, while Svendborg, the Cold War Museum and Egeskov Castle are also worth a visit and only a short drive from the house.
