Domaine De Campagne Surélevé Avec Résidence Distinguée Et Terres Forestières

Set within a gently undulating landscape, peacefully positioned atop a ridge overlooking forest-clad hills, lies the estate of Lilla Hallebo. The setting evokes thoughts of fairy tales and bygone eras, not least through its proximity to the old-growth forest surrounding Ryfors Bruk and the discreet murmur of the Bjurbäck stream flowing along the woodland edge of the property.

Originally constructed during the 19th century, Lilla Hallebo has undergone extensive development over the past forty years. What was once a simple traditional Swedish house has gradually been rebuilt and expanded, today presenting itself as a distinguished residence with clear inspiration drawn from classical manor architecture. The living area amounts to approximately 390 square metres, distributed across eight rooms and a kitchen with a well-balanced layout. The ground floor is characterised by generous social spaces including the kitchen, dining room, salon and library, as well as a large relaxation area featuring an indoor swimming pool and sauna. One of the home’s four bedrooms is located on the entrance level, while the remaining bedrooms are situated upstairs together with a spacious family room and two balconies.

The history of the estate is present in every room. Open fireplaces, beautiful timber floors and original ceilings, the wood-burning stove in the kitchen and the majestic staircase in the entrance hall together create a warm and substantial atmosphere where period charm harmonises with modern comfort. The older section of the house underwent a complete renovation in 1985, with further extensions added in 1997 and 2005.

The once dense forest surrounding the estate has gradually been thinned to create today’s open and meticulously maintained environment. A large enclosed garden with mature trees, plantings and an elegant greenhouse surrounds the main residence. Towards the stream are two landscaped ponds that provide a valuable habitat for birds and wildlife. The ponds are also home to the estate’s own crayfish. The surrounding meadowlands, previously used for horse keeping, lend the setting a park-like character.

Several well-maintained outbuildings are located on the property. The former stable building has been converted into a garage but could, if desired, be restored to its original purpose. There is also a workshop, a machinery hall with generous ceiling height, and insulated heated spaces suitable for storage, warehousing or business activities. Around 2018, the estate was further complemented by a modern double garage.

The total land area amounts to approximately 20 hectares, of which around 17.8 hectares consist of productive forest land, primarily thinning forest. The average site productivity is estimated at 5.9 cubic metres of standing timber per hectare and year.
