Charming lake house

Charming lake house with amazing seaview. The house is located on an island with buildings from the last turn of the century. Large terrace in the south with barbecue and dining table. Trampoline and large lovely lawn areas for play. Breakfast is best served on the kitchen veranda with sunrise and sea view, if you like, after your morning swim. There is a dreamy desk where you can write your diary, your memoars, or just lay puzzles.

Lilla Stenkulla belongs to Stenkulla Gård together with Villa Stenkulla, but is located on its own lakeside plot of 2,000 sqm. Villa Stenkulla has been featured in House & Antiques, Sköna Hem and Hyttemagazinet.

Lilla Stenkulla is easily accessible by communter boats that traffic the island 10 times/day in each direction. It takes 10 min to Vaxholm and 1 hour to downtown Stockholm. There are also 3 boat taxi firms in Vaxholm. Car and boat parking is available on the mainland.

Vaxholm, the capital of the archipelago, has a lot of history, not least with Vaxholm's fortress, as well as picturesque buildings with alleys and cozy shops. In Vaxholm there are about 20 restaurants, pharmacy, grocery stores, cafes, fresh fish, supermarkets, bakeries with fresh bread, movie theater, ATM and lots of ice cream parlors! Within 20 minutes by own- or taxi boat there are another 10 restaurants with seaside locations. From Vaxholm you can easily take a Vaxholm boat further out in the archipelago. From Arlanda it takes 45 minutes.

The island of Stegesund is classified as a national heritage because of all the merchant villas from the turn of the century and Stenkulla itself has been classified as extraordinary. On the car-free island there is a gravel road that is perfect for jogging and there is also a tennis court. In Vaxholm there is a golf course, canoe and bike rental etc., and Catch & Relax offers guided fishing trips from the island.

Bed linen and towels are included.
