Elegant 5-bedroom waterfront home in charming Risør, Norway

SUMMARY

Escape to a luxurious 5-bedroom house on the waterfront in Risør with stunning views. A beautiful and elegant wooden house in the oldest part of town. Originally built in 1776 and fully renovated in 2005, the property combines old world charm with modern amenities.

PROPERTY

Located on one of the most coveted sea plots in Risør with a view to beautiful Stangholmen lighthouse, you have spectacular ocean views from every room. Here you can appreciate the convenience of driving to the front door, then parking your car for the duration of your stay. Everything is within walking distance and the center of town is only a few minutes away. In town you will find an abundance of restaurants, shops, bars, galleries, boats and people watching. If you want relaxation and privacy instead, enjoy the terraces overlooking the ocean for a day of sunbathing with only a few steps to your private dock for a refreshing swim in the ocean.

This lovely property boasts 3 bedrooms and 2.5 baths in the main house, and 2 more bedrooms and a bathroom in the cottage. With a large and well-appointed living room, a to-die-for kitchen/dining room with a wood burning fireplace, and a secondary living room/office, the property has ample room for 10+ guests. Relax and unwind in style and sample the very best that the Norwegian south coast has to offer.

AREA & ACTIVITIES

Risør is an amazing seaside village on the Norwegian south coast and is one of the oldest towns in Norway. Situated on a peninsula between two fjords on the Skagerrak Sea, the town has a rich cultural heritage steeped in maritime history. Incredibly charming with roots dating back to the 1570s, the town was a major center for timber exports and shipbuilding. Most of the city center of Risør got its shape after a big fire in 1861, which burned down more than 240 houses. Luckily the church was saved from the fire and is standing as one of Norway’s most typical baroque churches, dating back to 1647.

Nicknamed "The White Town of Skageraak", Risør is renowned for its beautifully preserved wooden houses, all painted white and whimsically located along its narrow streets. There are flowers everywhere and small benches to sit on to take a rest. Small paths lead you on a fairytale-like walk while you peek into local gardens. In this romantic place you will find large white villas down by the waterfront and winding narrow roads where many of the locals live or have their small shops. The locals are very welcoming, and they want you to feel their hospitality when you visit. Here and there you can follow the small roads and paths to viewpoints that give you stunning views over the town and the archipelago.

Today Risør is designated a historically significant town and offers a vibrant art scene. It also hosts many great summer festivals, including the Risør Chamber Music Festival and the Risør Wooden Boat Festival. The culinary scene delivers a variety of options from casual cafes and bakeries to high-end dining. During the long summer nights of the north, you'll find people enjoying the bars, restaurants and nightlife, or sitting on the decks of their boats moored along the waterfront for a late nightcap. Favorite day-time activities include shopping, hiking, swimming, boating, fishing, strolling the piers, or watching a local regatta from a favorite lookout.

A TYPICAL DAY

A typical day starts with coffee on the patio in the morning, followed by a refreshing swim in the ocean from our private dock. Then perhaps a short stroll into town for fresh pastries or newly baked bread, before returning to the house for a long and slow breakfast. The days are filled with local activities of all kinds, or relaxing reading and sunbathing on the terrace. Throughout the day there are boats of all sorts passing by making it fun to bring out the binoculars.

Lunch is usually enjoyed on the terrace or in town. We often cook at home and eat on the terrace or in the kitchen. Sometimes we use the wood burning fireplace for added ambiance. The large living room is a very comfortable retreat in the evenings for social conversations, games, watching TV, or reading. When it’s time to sleep, we open the windows to let in the fresh salty sea air and fall asleep to the sounds of the ocean lapping at the rocks below.

Om värden

Christian Holmsen är värd

Värdens profilbild
I live in Colorado but grew up in Oslo, Norway. During my childhood Risør was my favorite place to make port on our family sailing trips up and down the coast. I also have several friends with homes in Risør. So, when I started looking for my own summer house it was a natural place to look.

I eventually found the perfect house and am now using it as a summer retreat for myself, family, and friends. But since I can't be there the whole summer, I think it is a great place to share with someone looking for a very high-quality vacation experience. I am excited to learn what you think.

Vad som gör detta boende unikt

The house is amazing and steep in history - one of the most elegant and charming homes in Risør located on a prime ocean front lot among only a dozen or so waterfront homes facing the bay, islands and sea to the east. You will enjoy sweeping views of the bay from nearly every room in the house.

Originally built in 1776, the year of American Independence, the property has been home to sea captains and fishermen alike. Fully renovated in 2005, it combines historic ambiance with modern comfort and elegance. It's a commodious home for Norwegian standards, and well-appointed too. You’ll enjoy classy tiling, untreated oak wood floors, wood-paneled walls and ceilings in soft neutral colors, custom bathroom fixtures, and quality kitchen appliances.

Upstairs in the main house there are 3 comfortable bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, as well as a living room/office. The annex affords great privacy for a couple or family with young children with its large bedroom and sitting area, private bath, and a secondary room/alcove with a cozy sleeping nook.

A typical day starts with coffee on the patio in the morning, followed by a refreshing swim in the ocean from our private dock. Then perhaps a short stroll into town for fresh pastries or newly baked bread, before returning to the house for a long and slow breakfast.
