Solstien 1, Højby Lyng

Surrounded by tall trees and a quiet forest, this newly renovated summer house in Odsherred is the kind of place that makes you breathe out the moment you arrive. The garden is a world of its own, large enough for children to play around in, with trees to climb, grass to run on and the kind of relaxed, natural surroundings that are becoming increasingly hard to find. Inside, the house is warm and spacious: around 163 m² with 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms (one with sauna) and a floor plan that naturally brings people together. The 3 bedrooms are distributed throughout the house in a way that gives everyone genuine privacy: 2 at one end, while the third is tucked away on the opposite side, ideal for those who go to bed early, or anyone who wants to relax in peace. Two bathrooms are well placed throughout, one with sauna, a proper indulgence after a day in the sea or a long forest walk. The open kitchen flows into the living room, where a wood-burning stove is at the centre on cooler evenings. The dining room is a bright and inviting space with large windows and a glass roof that provides beautiful natural light. During the day the room feels open and airy, and in the evening it creates a special atmosphere with views of the sky. Outside there is a large terrace divided into two areas: one for morning sun, one for afternoon shade. A carport keeps the car sheltered, and a fully equipped laundry room with washing machine and tumble dryer means that longer stays are no problem at all. Gudmindrup Strand is 2 km away. A quick bike ride or an easy 20-minute walk through the trees. The water is clean and calm, the coast really unspoilt. Back on land, Odsherred opens up to walking and cycling routes through forest and farmland, all just outside the door. For everyday needs you are well covered: a Super Brugsen, Rema 1000 and Netto are all within a 7-minute drive, so it is quick and easy to stock up. And on evenings when no one feels like cooking, a local pizzeria nearby is always an option for a relaxed takeaway evening. Nykøbing Sjælland is close by for restaurants, cafés and a taste of Danish everyday life. But honestly, the house gives you every reason to stay home and just enjoy where you are. This is a house that works beautifully in midsummer with a full house of children, and just as well on a quiet November weekend for two. It keeps the warmth in under all circumstances.
