A Gotland Summer Dream in Southern Gotland A rurally situated summer dream in southern Gotland, dating back to 1780, with a beautiful, well-preserved two-story house full of period details, nestled in a lush garden with a traditional Gotland bulhus . I drive slowly through the early summer-green landscape of Gotland, and once I arrive, I step through the welcoming gate in the fence that surrounds the small homestead. Today, I’m alone here, and I immediately settle down to listen to the nightingale singing in the eastern corner of the garden, just behind the beautiful, characteristic bulhus with its thatched roof. Today, on the 12th of May, the sun is out, showing itself after an unusually chilly spring. I sit on the limestone slab outside the front doors of the whitewashed main house and simply take it all in. A bumblebee buzzes in the rosebush that has just unfolded its leaves, and a swallow has chicks tucked under the roof tiles at the ridge of the red wing. The lilacs are about to bloom, heavy with purple and white buds. Now, summer stands at the doorstep, and warm winds fill the house with life after its winter slumber.

A well-maintained equestrian and forestry estate, idyllically situated amid open countryside, adjoining approximately 150 hectares of the estate’s own well-managed woodland in the heart of Gotland, in Hejde parish. The property features an attractive residence dating from 1909, complemented by two adjoining wings. There is also a bright, well-constructed indoor riding arena, together with stables and a barn, offering a total of 17 + 3 horse boxes, as well as seemingly endless beautiful riding and carriage-driving trails through the surrounding countryside. Ekeskogs Gård is also known as “Gotland Riding Academy” and is operated by the seller, Hanna Engström, together with her family, including Ronny Lund and their adult children. “Farms like this only come onto the market once every 30 years.” This was what the previous estate agent told Hanna and Ronny when they purchased the property — and they have now lived here themselves for more than 30 years. The couple are now entering a new chapter of their lives on the mainland and expect to be able to hand over the estate around the turn of the year, depending on what works best for all the horses.

This is a place where ideas take shape, where light pours through industrial windows, and where concrete, steel, and timber set the stage for the next chapter. A home, a gathering place, and a work of art in one and the same breath. The barn is an impressive 1,200 sqm building, created to bring people together through creativity. Half of the space consists of a spectacular three-storey living area with balcony, orangery, and outdoor terrace. The remaining part of the barn comprises an event and entertainment venue. Here you will find a concert hall, artist’s studio, orangery, potential retail space, wine room, as well as expansive open areas for exhibitions, dinners, and gatherings. The barn is surrounded by nature as its closest neighbour and offers a distinctly Gotland-style outdoor lifestyle, with pine forests and hammocks suspended between the trees. An outdoor terrace with cooking facilities and barbecue area invites long summer evening dinners that never quite seem to end. The possibilities for the barn are virtually limitless – a buyer could create conferences and creative retreats, yoga experiences, workshops, or artist residencies. The grand event space, complete with bar and lounge, feels tailor-made for weddings, private dinners, and celebrations of every kind. For entrepreneurs looking to build something greater than simply a home – this is where you belong. Here, there is space to think big and turn vision into reality.

The Roundhouse in Hablingbo - Stylish Residence in Southern Gotland Upon entering the Roundhouse, the landscape opens up into an expansive view with protective pine forests framing the sides and open farmland straight ahead. This dream home, housed in the former roundhouse, is quietly and privately situated on flat grassy areas, presenting a striking contrast with its clean lines in soft red brick against a black base and roof. A residence completely secluded from view and free from passing traffic. There isn’t really a road, just two wheel tracks in the grass passing by the neighbor in the old station house. The neighbor with horses in the adjacent summer pasture. The poppies sway, and a pair of pheasants slowly stroll through the grass. I walk through the glass doors and am greeted by a bold industrial vibe, a stylish simplicity, and tasteful interior design. Sunlight streams in through the mullioned arched windows, and I’m captivated by the gray color scheme against whitewashed wood and black-painted concrete. The locomotive shed has now been transformed into a unique home offering quality of life for those seeking something original. Throughout, there’s an appealing simplicity and charm.

In the heart of Visby, surrounded by beautiful cobblestone streets and picturesque historic buildings, you will find the charming Rosas boutique hotel, housed in a listed historic property with foundations dating back to the 13th century. Rosas occupies a three-storey building with a converted attic and a smaller basement, comprising four guest rooms and a small bridal suite on the attic level. The building features deep window reveals and red-painted, multi-pane double-glazed windows. The property also includes a peaceful courtyard and an additional courtyard building, currently comprising an apartment suitable for private residence or staff accommodation, as well as a private dining room.

Many people’s favorite, “Körsbärsgården” (The Cherry Garden) , is now being offered for sale after the owners’ long and devoted stewardship. The time has come for a new custodian to continue shaping the future of this extraordinary place. “It takes only a single step into the garden to realize that you are entering a work of art” — this is how a visit to Körsbärsgården has often been described. Welcome to the parish of Sundre on Storsudret in southern Gotland, and to what is often referred to as the island’s own “Louisiana.” Just 4 km from Hoburgen lies this renowned and frequently visited art centre, beautifully situated within an exceptional display garden, surrounded by sweeping views of the Gotland countryside and the sea. The estate is centred around a striking white complex featuring a 700 sqm exhibition hall for art shows, together with a sculpture park and café set in a truly magnificent environment. There is also an inviting private residence for family life and entertaining, as well as smaller buildings providing guest accommodation. The property serves as a meeting place and a hub for art, architecture, and literature, fostering creativity, innovation, and cultural development. Over many years, the current owners have created a paradise for art lovers within the embrace of Körsbärsgården — “a sanctuary in harmony with nature, founded on the principles of sustainability.” The entire estate is infused with art through permanent and temporary exhibitions, poetry evenings, lectures, concerts, and theatrical performances — all gathered in one unique location. The setting is defined by untamed nature, thoughtful architecture, and beautifully designed gardens. Here, different artistic disciplines come together to form a cohesive whole. A visit quickly reveals that Körsbärsgården itself is a work of art. Körsbärsgården is now seeking new owners to carry the vision forward and create its next chapter. Curious? Then do not hesitate. Come to the island if you are not already here. Leave Visby behind and travel south. As you approach Sundre, the road winds through the parish and onward across an open landscape framed by traditional stone walls and grazing animals. Pass nature reserves such as Husrygg, Vaktbackar, and Muskmyr before arriving at a place where sea views, farmland, alvar plains, and rolling pastures stretch out before you. The offering comprises two properties: an agricultural estate with a private residence and a commercial rental property, located at Sundre Västergårde 133B and Sundre Västergårde 135 .
