Description

Markus and Liisa has described his/her home in English.

What you will love about this home

Our spacious home is located in the heart of Alavus, a small and peaceful town in western Finland. It’s the perfect blend of comfort and nature, with a private beach by the lake, where you’ll find a rowing boat, SUP boards, a canoe, and old kayaks—plus fishing rods for your use.

The house, built in the 1970s, underwent a major renovation about 10 years ago, blending modern comforts with classic charm. Inside, we have an electric sauna, and just a short walk to the beach is a small cabin with a traditional wood-heated sauna for ultimate relaxation.

Our home has multiple bedrooms and spacious living areas, making it a great spot for families or groups. We have a few bikes you can use, as well as plenty of space for outdoor activities.

Whether you want to relax at the beach, enjoy a sauna, or explore the local surroundings, you’ll find plenty to love about our home and the peaceful town of Alavus!

What you will love about this neighborhood

Our home is in a peaceful area within walking distance of Alavus town center. Just 100 meters away, Harrin Grilli serves delicious hamburgers, and only 7 km away, you’ll find Veljekset Keskinen, Finland’s largest department store with all services (https://tuuri.fi/en/).

For day trips:

Ähtäri Zoo (30 min by car) – home to many Finnish wild animals (https://www.ahtarizoo.fi/index.php/en/)

PowerPark (1 hr) – Finland’s largest amusement park (https://www.powerpark.fi/en/)

Seinäjoki (40 min) – a lively city with great shopping and dining

Tampere, Jyväskylä, and Vaasa (1.5–2 hrs)

Helsinki (300 km, 3.5 hrs)

Getting here is easy - by car, train (5 km to the station), or bus.

Nature is right at our doorstep! In summer, enjoy swimming, paddling, and forest walks. In winter, cross-country ski trails open on the lake (if the weather allows). Late summer and autumn bring opportunities for berry and mushroom picking - even in our own garden!

Additional information

For exploring the area, we may be able to offer our 2016 Volkswagen Caddy Maxi (7 seats) to make day trips more convenient.

Our dog does not shed, but allergy sufferers should note that we do have a pet in the house.

Also note the possibility of a private room when our family is at home https://www.homeexchange.com/homes/view/2344438
