About this property

The House of Happiness

The Swedish path to happiness is called “lagom”: “Just right—not too much and not too little.”
Or as Astrid Lindgren puts it:
“And then, of course, you also have to have time to just sit there and gaze into the distance.”
Enjoy your time at Lyckans Hem: swim in the lake, go hiking, sit in the garden, and read a book. Don’t forget to visit Kalmar and Öland, the Astrid Lindgren World, and the wonderful loppis (flea markets). There are a thousand ways to enjoy Småland.
Our house is centrally located between Kalmar, Växjö, and Karlskrona, about 3 km from Route 25. It’s in a small, charming village with a swimming lake and beautiful hiking trails. If you’re looking to spend a nature-filled holiday in a house with all the amenities and a beautiful, large garden, right in the heart of nature, then you’ve come to the right place. You can also reach beautiful cities, shopping centers, and even Öland within 45 minutes.
