This luxury estate is an absolute rarity and a truly unique opportunity to create your own private paradise on a small island in the famous Hardangerfjord.
On the fjord-facing side of the island, a large sauna house with sauna and relaxation area has been built. A spacious hot tub is being installed on the terrace.
The property is sold fully furnished.
On the mainland side, the property includes a private parking space and a boat berth, ensuring fast and safe access to the house in all weather conditions.
The seller is willing to continue providing maintenance and property care in the future, which is especially attractive for international buyers.
A 42 ft boat can optionally be purchased at a very favorable price.
The perfect retreat combining tranquility, charm, and luxury.
The house is located on a small holmen just off the fjord coast. Thanks to the expansive grounds, the property offers two separate shorelines—one facing the mainland and one facing the fjord. The maritime ensemble, centered around the impressive main house, is complemented by a beautiful boathouse, a practical quay, and a large floating jetty.
A rare opportunity directly on the water. You now have the exclusive chance to acquire a spacious, modern, and luxurious holiday home with panoramic views over the fjord.
Right outside your doorstep, you will find excellent swimming opportunities. The private floating jetty invites you to take a refreshing dip at any time and can also be used as a boat dock. From early morning until late in the evening, you can enjoy the magnificent Nordic sunlight on the lush yet low-maintenance grounds.
The property is located on Børsheimholmen, just over 100 meters from the fjord coastline of Strandebarm. The small village offers basic services, shops, and dining options. The beautiful Norwegian coastal city of Bergen can be reached in approximately 1 hour and 30 minutes. On the opposite side of the fjord lies the famous Folgefonna Glacier—this is Norway at its very best.
Access is convenient, for example from Bergen Airport, with a travel time of approximately 1 hour and 40 minutes.
At the heart of this impressive property stands a solid manor house built in traditional log construction. Originally constructed around 1917, the house has been continuously and extensively renovated and modernized over the years. The most recent major renovation, including a structural extension, was completed in 2017.
The main house offers a living area of 176 m² and comprises:
1 living room with kitchen (in the newer section)
1 TV lounge (in the historic section)
1 bathroom
1 utility / laundry room
5 bedrooms
1 entrance area and hallways
Despite its historic charm, the building has an energy efficiency rating of class C, eliminating the need for major energy upgrades.
Heating is provided by a cozy fireplace, a sophisticated combined ventilation system, and—typical for Norway—electric radiators.
The property is connected to the public water supply, and wastewater is treated via a standard on-site mini treatment plant.
The plot spans an impressive 13,600 m² and is freehold land.
This house is ideal for escaping the stresses of everyday life. On the two terraces overlooking both the mainland and the fjord, you can relax, barbecue, and enjoy the shimmering play of light on the water from morning through evening. Afterwards, unwind in complete privacy in your own hot tub.
The property is currently registered as a holiday home but can, if desired, be reclassified as a year-round residence, offering maximum flexibility. This also makes it an excellent investment opportunity: you secure assets outside the EU while also benefiting from strong rental potential. If required, the holiday home can be professionally marketed for rentals—we are happy to support you in developing and implementing a suitable marketing concept.
