House to renovate with large barn on 2.5 Hectares in Sweden

Nestled in the serene south of Sweden, Kraksjo is a hidden gem—a sprawling 2.5-hectare rural paradise that's calling for your vision and creativity. Imagine waking up to the gentle rustle of leaves, the chirp of birds, and the vast openness of unspoiled countryside, far from the hustle of city life. This sparsely populated area offers the ultimate escape: quiet roads, fresh air, and endless possibilities for those seeking a slower, more connected way of living. Whether you're dreaming of a family homestead, a self-sustaining retreat, or an entrepreneurial venture, this property delivers the space and potential to make it all real.


At the heart of Kraksjo stands a grand country house boasting over 200 square meters of living space—plenty of room for multi-generational living, guest quarters, or even a home-based business. Built with the sturdy charm of traditional Swedish architecture, the house has been thoughtfully upgraded in recent years to lay a solid foundation for your renovations. A brand-new roof ensures worry-free protection from the elements, while the rebuilt chimney (completed in 2022) promises cozy fires on chilly evenings. Downstairs, a fresh concrete floor with sub-insulation (installed in 2023) provides a durable, modern base ready for your custom finishes. Electricity is fully connected, including both single-phase and three-phase options (upgraded in 2023), powering everything from everyday appliances to ambitious workshop setups. Water flows reliably from a deep 160-meter well drilled just last year, and a state-of-the-art septic tank (2022) handles sanitation with ease. Perimeter fencing, finished in 2024, secures the entire estate, giving peace of mind for pets, livestock, or children exploring the grounds.

But Kraksjo is more than just a house—it's a complete lifestyle package. The expansive 2.5 hectares of land offer fertile soil, rolling terrain, and natural beauty ripe for transformation. Picture organic gardening in sun-kissed plots, meandering woodland paths for peaceful walks, or open meadows perfect for play. The property's versatility shines through: envision a boutique campsite with eco-friendly yurts dotting the landscape, drawing visitors to experience authentic Swedish nature. Or, if horses call to you, the space is ideal for equestrian pursuits—stables, arenas, and trails could turn this into a rider's haven. For the creatively inclined, the ideas are boundless: a wellness retreat, artisan workshops, or simply a private sanctuary where you can grow your own food and recharge your soul.

Complementing the main residence is a massive barn, thoughtfully divided into three distinct units for maximum utility. Whether you need storage for equipment, a hayloft for animals, a creative studio, or additional housing, this outbuilding provides flexible, weatherproof space that's ready to adapt to your needs. Photos reveal its robust construction and generous size, making it a standout feature for anyone with big plans.

While the house does require renovation to unlock its full potential—think updating interiors, modernizing kitchens and bathrooms, and infusing your personal style—these upgrades come on the back of essential modern infrastructure already in place. This isn't a blank slate; it's a smart investment where the heavy lifting (roof, utilities, fencing) is done, leaving you to focus on the fun parts: designing your dream kitchen, crafting cozy bedrooms, or building that outdoor pavilion for summer gatherings.

Kraksjo isn't just property; it's an invitation to rewrite your story in one of Europe's most enchanting corners. Sweden's south offers mild summers for al fresco dining, vibrant autumn colors, and a welcoming community that's easy to integrate into. Proximity to lakes, forests, and charming villages means adventure is always nearby, yet the rural seclusion ensures your privacy. For families, it's a nurturing environment; for retirees, a tranquil haven; for entrepreneurs, a launchpad
