Welcome to the Unique Bäckafors Estate, Just Outside Malmö.

An estate that rarely comes to market. Tucked away along a quiet country lane, Bäckafors Estate enjoys a wonderfully secluded and peaceful setting, yet remains remarkably close to everything. The village of Tygelsjö, with its local amenities, is just a kilometre or so away, as is Klagshamnsudden and its beautiful sandy beach. Malmö city centre is approximately 8 kilometres away, while Copenhagen Airport, offering connections to destinations around the world, can be reached in less than 30 minutes. Hyllie Station is a major transport hub, with trains, buses and the City Tunnel connecting you to the wider world. It takes less than 15 minutes to get there. Yet, as you turn into the courtyard of this wonderful estate, you find yourself in a world of complete privacy. A true Skåne countryside dream, with uninterrupted views across the landscape and the Öresund Bridge to the west.

The estate has a long history and is one of a number of scattered farmsteads situated between Tygelsjö and the Öresund Strait. Under the current owners’ thoughtful care, it has been renovated to an exceptional standard, with every space meticulously maintained and requiring little upkeep in the years ahead. The beautiful traditional Skåne-style roof, with its distinctive standing-seam detailing, contrasts elegantly with the white-rendered façade and traditionally red-painted windows and doors. All have been specially commissioned for the estate and replaced by the current owners.

The gardens are simply magical. A beautiful courtyard, surrounded by an abundance of lush greenery that flows around the estate in every direction. Mature trees provide shade as the evening sun sets over the strait and the Öresund Bridge, casting long shadows across the many inviting outdoor spaces. The orangery, nestled in the courtyard like a hidden gem, is the perfect setting for leisurely meals, with the sun, sky and greenery all within reach. As evening falls, the garden lighting comes to life, inviting you to linger for another hour or two.

On the garden side, an organically shaped swimming pool awaits, with some particularly deep sections. A generous timber deck surrounds the pool, framed by beautiful mature trees. Dense planting along the outer boundaries ensures complete privacy, creating your own secluded garden paradise. A large pergola and outdoor kitchen complete the setting, making it equally suited to peaceful days in the sun or larger social gatherings. Despite all the praise, we are quite certain that the atmosphere here will still exceed expectations when you visit.

Open fields stretch out in every direction around the estate. Who knows what you might enjoy watching grow throughout the seasons? One year, the landscape may be covered in glorious yellow rapeseed, another in rye, potatoes or sugar beet. The farmer tends the land as generations have done for hundreds of years, and life continues at its own gentle pace here at Bäckafors Estate.

The floor plan is outlined in the presentation, and the photographs speak for themselves – what a home. Yet there is something more: the feeling. The current owners have thoughtfully introduced a beautifully soft and harmonious colour palette throughout the interiors. The generous country kitchen features a spacious dining area overlooking both the courtyard and the garden. A fireplace provides warmth and a welcoming atmosphere during the winter months. The large reception room feels cosy and personal despite its impressive proportions. Another fireplace, combined with the character of the room, makes you long for those stormy winter evenings. This is a home to truly enjoy.

The bedrooms are generously proportioned and thoughtfully arranged. There is no shortage of bathrooms, while rustic Öland limestone features on the hallway floors and window sills. Particular mention should be made of the beautiful principal suite on the upper floor, complete with its own bathroom, walk-in wardrobe and additional spaces, creating an entirely separate private wing for the owners.

The building has an L-shaped layout, with an additional entrance, offering excellent possibilities for a home-based business, a high-quality multigenerational living arrangement or perhaps rental accommodation to maximise the estate’s income potential. Even if the property were divided into separate living areas, the private residence would still offer such generous bedroom and reception spaces that accommodating tenants would in no way feel like a compromise.

The spacious workshop offers room for whatever you have in mind. Your business, your hobbies, a lathe, a table tennis table – whatever brings you joy. Ideally positioned, it features large doors opening directly onto the courtyard.

One significant advantage of this estate compared with many similar properties is the absence of extensive outbuildings requiring ongoing maintenance. Everything is thoughtfully laid out and presented to such a high standard that the next owner can simply move in and enjoy. The technical systems have been carefully maintained and updated to meet modern standards. Solar panels complement the geothermal heating system, helping to keep running costs reasonable despite the property’s impressive size of more than 400 sqm.

In summary, this is a truly rare opportunity to acquire a home and lifestyle beyond the ordinary.
