Step back in time at the historic Stenhuset, or “the Stone House,” a one-of-a-kind home built in 1877 by Swedish stonemasons and proudly listed on Atlas Obscura. This home masterfully blends 19th-century charm with modern luxury, all within its original 24-inch-thick stone walls.
Inside, the great room welcomes you with exposed stone, beamed ceilings, and hand-hewn wood floors. The eclectic, colorful kitchen is fully equipped for the modern traveler, featuring: A 4-burner cooktop A convection oven/microwave A coffee maker and grinder A refrigerator and dishwasher cleverly concealed behind repurposed cabinetry
Relax in the living area at a cozy table for two, or stream your favorite shows on the pop-up Smart TV with our complimentary Gigabit-speed WiFi and ad-free Hulu+Live TV. For extra sleeping space, a chest of drawers cleverly conceals a Murphy bed. A full bath with a unique step-in shower and a stacked washer/dryer are also conveniently located on the main level.
Stenhuset features two private bedroom suites, each with a king-size Casper mattress, a Smart TV, and an ensuite bathroom: Lower-Level Suite: Descend the stairs past an original stenciled plaster wall to discover a spacious suite. It includes a private seating area and an ensuite bath with an upcycled vanity and an oval walk-in shower. Upstairs Loft Suite: Nestled in the loft, this second suite offers a spacious seating area with a sofa and chair that overlooks the great room below.
Enjoy your morning coffee or an evening meal outdoors at the teak dining table for six, set perfectly under a hand-hewn pergola.
Hello, my name is Jim. As you may have guessed, I am a big fan of Lindsborg, KS for its friendly townsfolk and business owners. Perhaps also because, according to DNA test results, I’m 80% Swedish! I was the first vacation rental owner in the area and my properties began as a kind of experiment to see if they would catch on. Fortunately, they did and my properties are now warmly embraced by the local community. While I don’t live in Lindsborg, I have been welcomed into the community as a “local” who just happens to live elsewhere. When I’m not tending to my vacation rentals, you will find me working in my commercial real estate business, where I own and rent commercial spaces for small businesses and apartments for local residents. In my leisure time, I particularly enjoy genealogy (not a big surprise there!), traveling, and hiking. I look forward to welcoming you to my properties in Little Sweden USA!

I had an opportunity to purchase and renovate the oldest house in Lindsborg. The results speak for themselves!
