Stylish 2 Bdr. cottage, with sauna and all the necessary commodities

Are you looking for a modern, yet very typical cozy Finnish chalet cottage with all the comfort? Do you appreciate designer elements mixed with the clean Nordic style? Then keep reading!

Reside in a friendly tranquil village just steps away from the water with a typical scenery of the Österbotten coastal area.

Finished in 2015, this pine wood cottage does not offer only all the necessary modern amenities, such as a modern kitchen, a sauna and a beautiful bathroom.
We have also made a point of including carefully selected designer elements, from a traditional chimney (admittedly with a not so traditional colour) and old local furniture refurbished with international fabrics, all the way over functional (yes, some Ikea) elements and stylish Moroccan lamps in the bathroom to old family antiques, just to name a few.

This is to provide for a feeling of modern comfort and luxury fusioned into a very traditional Scandinavian setting.

Downstairs offers a comfortable open concept kitchen-, dining- and living area. One of the bedrooms, a separate toilet, a bathroom with shower, washing machine and sauna are also situated on the ground floor. The large outside terrace allows for guests to hang out in the late hours when the sun doesn't set beyond the horizon until after midnight.
The sauna, by the way, is dark on purpose, to remind of some origins of the Finnish sauna, namely a smoke sauna (FI: savusauna, SE: rökbastu)

The upper floor offers a second bedroom, a hangout area and its own little balcony, making it easy to find your own spot for reading that book or doing some work.

The lot has a large green area, reaching down to the canal in the back and including an entire field in front. Neighbors are on a comfortable distance.

The location is comfortably accessible by car, only 20km outside of Vaasa. Surroundings offer immediate proximity to nice walking paths along the canal behind the house and around the lake/bay which divides the village.

Moose/elks are regularly observed in the immediate area. A small public sand beach is only 3km away, while supermarkets are 10km away. This is a Swedish speaking area and many locals will also be able to communicate with you in English.

Day trip recommendations include Kvarken, a large archipelago and World Heritage Site best seen from the "Saltkaret" tower in Björkö, the open air museum Stundars with local life as it may have been at the turn of the 20th century, and of course Vaasa city itself with good shopping and food options.

Culinary lovers should look out for local fish dishes (especially smoked, pickled and cured), seasonal local produce, dark bread and sweets like oven pancake with cloudberry jam and icecream.

We welcome any clarification with the owner directly, by WhatsApp or email, contacts provided by vrbo, with a 24h response time.
