Reached by car and a short ferry, the estate is secluded and quiet — one of our most private properties. Seven bedrooms span the main house and two guest cottages. The original architecture remains: wooden floors, generous windows, the warmth of a home built to last. Recent renovations brought new bathrooms and a fully updated kitchen, while the character of 1911 stayed untouched. The main house opens to light and garden views. A living room with original floors and open fireplace. The kitchen — newly renovated with premium appliances — connects to a dining room overlooking the lawn. Guest House 1 offers its own living space with deep sofas, kitchen, and a loft with six single beds. Guest House 2 is quieter, suited for couples seeking privacy. Seven bedrooms, twelve beds. Three king-size rooms in the main house, each with private sinks and one en-suite. Guest House 1 has two king-size bedrooms plus the loft. Guest House 2 offers one king-size bedroom. Bathrooms feature heated floors and walk-in showers. The main house includes a spa area with freestanding tub and fireplace. Premium linen and towels throughout. A private dock extends into the water with open views across the bay. The wood-fired sauna sits steps from the shore. The garden has grown quietly over decades: old trees, stone paths, lawn reaching the waterline. An outdoor kitchen for summer grilling. Outdoor dining seats the full group. Badminton court, ping pong table, trampoline. A small motorboat included for short trips between islands. Also available: canoe, two SUPs, wakeboard, waterskis, fishing equipment. Skarpö is a 40-minute drive from Stockholm, followed by a 10-minute car ferry. The villa sits at the end of a small road on elevated ground — private, with water on three sides and views across the surrounding landscape. Vaxholm town is a ten-minute boat ride — cafés, restaurants, a small harbor. The archipelago stretches in every direction: Grinda, Möja, Sandhamn. Stockholm is close enough for a day trip, far enough to feel worlds away. At Scandinavian Hospitality the following is always included: \- Champagne on arrival and a personal walkthrough. \- Premium linen, towels, and bathrobes. \- Byredo bathroom amenities. \- Concierge support throughout your stay. \- Departure cleaning. Our concierge team can arrange boat trips, pre-stock the kitchen, book restaurants, or organise a private chef — whatever you need to make your stay seamless. ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the villa: WiFi ### Kitchen -
