Historic Estate by the Baltic Sea – Where Swedish Heritage Meets Contemporary Living
Steeped in history and surrounded by the peaceful landscapes of northern Sweden, this remarkable estate on Timmerviksvägen 20 offers a rare opportunity to own one of Örviken’s most distinguished historic residences. Originally constructed during the late nineteenth century as the residence for the local sawmill inspector, the property later became the director’s home, reflecting the prosperity and architectural ambitions of the region’s industrial heritage.
Lovingly preserved while thoughtfully updated for modern living, the estate combines timeless Scandinavian craftsmanship with contemporary comfort. Original architectural details, generous proportions and elegant glass verandas create a residence that feels both grand and welcoming.
The main house offers spacious reception rooms filled with natural light, high ceilings, traditional timber flooring and a beautiful soapstone fireplace that creates a warm gathering place throughout the year. Several generously sized bedrooms provide flexible accommodation for family, guests or home offices, while the kitchen and dining areas retain much of their original character and offer excellent potential for further personalization.
A charming detached guest house complements the estate, featuring two traditional tiled stoves, its own kitchen and bathroom facilities. Whether accommodating extended family, visiting friends or creating a private studio, the guest house provides exceptional versatility.
The property’s extensive outbuildings further enhance its appeal. A double garage with concrete flooring has already been prepared for hydronic underfloor heating, while additional storage buildings offer exciting possibilities for workshops, creative studios, events or commercial use. A traditional underground root cellar remains in excellent condition, preserving another authentic feature of Swedish rural heritage.
Occupying approximately one hectare of beautifully landscaped grounds, the estate is surrounded by mature trees, orchards, flowering gardens and open lawns. Apple trees, lilacs, grapevines and yellow raspberries contribute to an atmosphere that changes beautifully with every season. The nearby Baltic coastline further enhances the tranquil setting, offering easy access to nature, boating and year-round outdoor recreation.
Located just minutes from central Skellefteå, the property combines complete privacy with excellent accessibility, making it equally suited as a permanent residence, executive retreat or exclusive second home.
More than simply a residence, this is an estate with a remarkable story—ready for its next chapter.
