Ein Idyllisches Landgut mit 28 Hektar Land und Blick auf Den See Valasjön

At Yttervala Västergård, country living comes with views across Lake Valasjön, open pastures and woodland just beyond the doorstep, yet Stockholm remains within easy reach, with a commute to the office of less than an hour. The red timber house, dating from the 1920s, has been beautifully renovated with care and respect for its original materials and history, creating the gentle, welcoming atmosphere that characterises the home. The kitchen is both beautiful and sociable, with ample space for friends and family to gather around the generous kitchen island and in the adjoining dining room.

The farmstead offers a wealth of possibilities for those wishing to bring their dreams to life. Perhaps a keen gardener might aspire to become self-sufficient in vegetables and open a garden shop? Create a multigenerational home, establish a bed and breakfast, host courses or pursue another creative venture? Or simply enjoy having plenty of space for overnight guests?

The property comprises the main residence and a substantial former farmworker’s cottage, which includes a newly renovated rental apartment of approximately 40–50 sq m, together with space for a workshop, woodshed and storage. A large greenhouse stands nearby.

Extending across 28.2 hectares, the estate benefits from income sources including agricultural subsidies, offers opportunities for rental income and enjoys low running costs thanks in part to its solar panel installation and air-source heat pump.

The property includes hunting rights and fishing rights in Lake Storsjön, where crayfish can be caught, among other species. It also comes with a preliminary planning approval for a residential building close to Lake Storsjön. The arable land has been KRAV-certified organic for the past 25 years and retains its certification today.

One of the particular pleasures of living here is the contrast between town and country: returning home after a working day in the city to the idyllic tranquillity of the farm, with horses grazing just beyond the bedroom window.

Gnesta is just a fifteen-minute cycle ride or approximately five minutes by car, with a large, free long-stay car park available. From here, the train journey to Stockholm takes only around 35 minutes.

Gnesta offers a welcoming, family-friendly environment with schools and nurseries, a school of arts, swimming pool, ice rink, sports clubs and theatre. There is also a library with a strong focus on children, alongside a lively cultural and community scene featuring cafés, restaurants, an artisan bakery, concerts and a variety of activities.

The town centre is home to several grocery shops, a pharmacy, bookshop, second-hand shops and cafés.
