Västergarn Sjöviken 50 - Västra Gotland - Västergarn and surroundings, Gotlands Tofta - Holiday home - HusmanHagberg

Welcome to Sjöviken 50 – an architect-designed, winter-proof home in one of Västergarn's most attractive locations, where you quickly understand why many people are keen to spend a little more time here.

It is an architect-designed home in a magnificent setting where you can easily take the golf cart to Visby GK / Kronholmen, one of Sweden's most renowned and beautiful golf courses. The sea is just around the corner, the golf course is your neighbour, and Gotland's entire west coast with swimming, nature reserves and open landscapes is close at hand.

The main building is approx. 76 sqm but feels considerably larger, not least thanks to the gable roof and the large glass sections that let in the light and blur the boundary between indoors and outdoors. In addition, there is a detached Attefallshus (ancillary building) of approx. 30 sqm, which means you can invite both friends and family without having to compromise on your own space.

And it is clear that no shortcuts were taken with the material choices here. Quite the opposite. The hallway has flooring in Gotland limestone from Burgsvik, the hallway surface features a worktop in polished natural stone, also from Burgsvik, with an exclusive marble character, and deep window niches contribute to the house's character and the calm light that is hard to put your finger on but easy to enjoy.

The floor plan offers three bedrooms and a really nice bathroom with a sauna, a much-appreciated detail after a windy day by the sea. And then there is the wood-burning stove, which quite quickly becomes a natural gathering point, especially when the evenings get a little cooler. With water-based underfloor heating throughout the house, this is also a home that works all year round, not just during the summer months.

Outside, the space opens up generously. A wooden deck of approx. 100 sqm in a prime south-westerly position, where life essentially moves outdoors. There is room for a long table, sun loungers, a really comfortable lounge area and a barbecue corner for long summer evenings on Gotland.

The Attefallshus, built in 2022 by a local carpenter, is a well-executed building that adds great potential to the property. Järnvitriol (iron vitriol) panelling, a mono-pitched roof and a five-metre-long glass section that opens onto its own deck and the garden. Here is a generous extra space that is perfect for guests, a home office or as a flexible complement to the main building.

The plot is spacious and in a south-westerly position, with lawns, plantings and a green setting of lilac, roses, willow and hornbeam that makes it feel both cosy and like a summer idyll at the same time. At the back there is also an outdoor shower with solar-heated water – a lovely detail after a day at the beach or on warm summer days at home. And the gravelled driveway offers plenty of room for several cars.

And the location… it is one of the property's great strengths. You live next door to the golf course and within walking distance of swimming at both Bibosviken and Västergarn's charming fishing village. Kronholmens nature reserve and Paviken are just around the corner, with open landscapes, hiking trails and cycle paths that make you want to head out on an excursion. In the local area you will find Stelor, the much-loved farm restaurant with local food and a relaxed farm setting.

Tofta beach is an easy bike ride away (approx. 5 km), and Visby takes around 20 minutes by car. There is also a bus service, making the location convenient even without a car.

So if I were to sum it up briefly: this is a place where a lot of things just click. The location by the golf course and the sea, the feel, the material choices and the life all around. A well-designed, easy-to-maintain quality home in beautiful Västergarn, where the house and its surroundings, combined with the proximity to nature, the sea and the golf course, create a place where you can truly feel at home.

A floor plan is available under important documents.
