General overview

Hi thought I better update availability 🤪 my house is available anytime, I work as a sailor so I am at sea for 6 weeks then home for 6 weeks but if you would like to use my house while I am home then that is possible as my girlfriend has a house on the other side of the Oslo fjord so please feel free to just ask and I am sure we can work something out . My house is set at the bottom of the mountains and a short 1 hour walk directly behind the house takes you into the forest and up the mountains. Its a agricultural area so lots of small farms making for a peaceful way of life . In summer we can see some good temperatures Gvarv the nearest village has recorded the highest and lowest temperatures in Norway 35 to -30. The area is beautiful with the small farms growing apples and cherries in the summer time. Norways only outside water park Sommerland is 15 minute drive from the house. In winter there is skiing at Lifjell skisentre. They call this area lille Norge meaning it has something of everything you would expect to see in Norway.

The space

The house is all on 1 level and has 3 bedrooms (2 doubles and a single bedroom which has another pull out bed under the main bed so you could actually fit 4 adults and 2 kids here. There is a main bathroom with a bath tub and a shower and then a smaller toilet shower room. The kitchen is of a modern and good standard with everything you might need from coffee machine to airfryer and all the main appliances. There is a washing room with automatic washing machine and dryer. The living room has a glass fronted wood oven for those cosy evenings or winter days. There is also a heat exchanger pump and electric ovens for heating. 55 inch TV with surround sound system.

Guest access

The house is all on one level but there are 3 steps up to the tearraces both front and back.

Neighbourhood

The house is located between 2 small villages that have plenty grocery stores and some restaurants and take aways. There is a train station 10 minutes away with trains going every 2 hours to Oslo or Stavanger via Kristiansand. It's a 2 hour drive or train trip to Oslo.

Getting to my home

Staying here you need a car as I am in the countryside so best way would be to fly to Torp Sandefjord and hire a car then its a 90 minute drive to the house. Oslo Gardermoen is handy for trains and arriving at the small village of Bø about 6 km from the house. There is an app (get around) where there are private cars for hire in this area.

Nearest airport

You have 2 options in Airports Torp Sandefjord about 90 minutes drive and Oslo Gardermoen train to Oslo S (20 mins) then Train from Oslo S to Bø (2 hours)

Getting around

I think i have covered this in the earlier posts
