Penisola Privata Con Tre Case In Legno — Lungolago, Finlandia Meridionale

Own an entire peninsula on a quiet forest lake in Kuhmoinen (Ruolahti), Southern Finland, with 280 metres of private sandy shoreline and a plot of approximately 13,805 m². Three log houses from 2011 stand on the grounds in near-new condition, offering around 262 m² of living space across five fully self-contained units.

The detached main house combines rustic log architecture with a modern interior: floor-to-ceiling windows, an open gallery, a fitted kitchen, a fireplace, a sauna and a large terrace with long views over the water. Two semi-detached houses sit slightly elevated on the slope, looking through the trees to the lake. Each of their four halves has its own sauna, fitted kitchen, large terrace and an additional bedroom on the upper floor. In total: 10 rooms, 6 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms and a guest WC, with underfloor heating and high-quality fittings throughout. The property is winterised for year-round use.

Outdoors, a separate wood-fired beach sauna sits by the water, alongside a summer kitchen with barbecue area, a wide sandy beach, a large jetty and canoes – all within easy reach of the houses despite the generous grounds. A private well, wood-fired heating and grilling make the estate genuinely independent. Four parking spaces are available.

Why this lake: unlike the busy waterways of Finland’s large lakes, here you have complete silence – no motorboats, no jet skis. The smaller lake warms up considerably faster in spring and summer than the deep Päijänne, making the private shore ideal and safe for family swimming. The surrounding forest shelters the plot from harsh winds, keeping evenings on the terraces pleasantly warm. Anglers will find a lake rich in pike and perch, fishable straight from the jetty.

Location: the wide waters of Päijänne, Finland’s second-largest lake, and the shops, restaurants and marinas of Kuhmoinen are only a few minutes away by car. Helsinki-Vantaa International Airport is reached in roughly 2.5 hours on excellent roads. Fast, stable internet makes remote working from the forest entirely practical.

Ownership and purchase: the estate is sold as a whole only, at €440,000. With five independent units, it suits a joint purchase by several families, a group of friends or a club – each party taking its own log house with private sauna, kitchen and terrace, at roughly €90,000 per unit. It is equally suited to use as a private retreat, a rental investment, an eco-resort or an angler’s lodge. Please note that Finnish banks generally do not finance foreign buyers, so the purchase is made from own funds.
