Step back in time at this charming farm from the early 1900s, carefully preserved to tell the story of simple but rich farm life. This gem is a testament to craftsmanship and tradition, with its original forge and natural stone wall. It combines rural idyll with the charming village of Östervallskog, where the silence is as remarkable as the surroundings.
Inside, you'll find an atmosphere filled with memories, where each room tells its own story. The home bears the mark of time and simplicity - there's water in the tap and a toilet, but you shower in the village. Drinking water is also fetched in the village. Charming details and practical solutions provide a unique experience of living in the countryside, just like in the old days.
Outside, you can enjoy your morning coffee on the porch while watching nature slowly come to life. The garden invites you to long, warm evenings where the mist dances over the water and children's laughter sounds from neighbors bathing nearby. This is the place to relax and let time stand still.
In the surrounding area, there are plenty of opportunities for the adventurous. Østen and the Dalsland Canal offer fresh baths and beautiful boat trips, while the local village offers cultural experiences and friendly encounters with the locals. There's something for everyone here, whether you want to explore or just enjoy the peace and quiet.

Start your morning with a refreshing swim and have your first coffee of the day on the private jetty in the sun
Hello everyone! I'm part of a small family that has been lucky enough to call this place our summer home for almost 40 years. We've celebrated life's great moments here, surrounded by nature, water and memories. From early morning swims to late night gatherings on the dock, this place has given us and our friends countless memorable moments. We hope you'll enjoy it as much as we do here at Østen, where every day starts and ends with nature's own tranquillity.

A really great place. Everything was very lovingly and comfortably arranged. Everything we needed was there. We fell in love with this house, the property, and the lake. Marte is a wonderful host.
