Five different Sommarnöjen in Norrtälje

On 4 October five families in Norrtälje and surrounding areas open the doors to their Sommarnöjen. A great opportunity for you who are considering building to experience our houses for real – and see how different choices of size, floor plan and interior create completely different homes.

Welcome to the new Sommarnöjen

20 years of Sommarnöjen. Now with a new look.

We’ve refreshed our visual identity and created an entirely new website. Above all, we’ve made it easier to explore our houses, understand the differences between them and find the one that’s right for you and your setting.

Today, we are launching our spatial textile collection.

Together with the craftswoman Lovisa Heinius, we have created a textile collection inspired by our houses and large glass panels. Created to filter light, frame the view and create a sense of space.

Coming soon: a new design collaboration!

Our houses have large glass sections that often require more than standard-size curtains. Therefore we reached out to the craftswoman Lovisa Heinius with the assignment to create something that borders on art and curtains, which can filter sunlight on warm summer days without obstructing the view.

Sommarnöjen and Studio Lovisa Heinius present an exciting design collaboration – a textile collection created to filter light, frame views and create a sense of spatiality.

About Sommarnöjen

We take care of every aspect – from the first sketch to the finished home. This includes planning and design, building permits, production and close collaboration throughout the process.

Yes, we deliver turnkey homes with everything in place, so you can move in and start enjoying your home straight away.

Throughout Sweden and in several neighbouring countries.

Yes, we regularly arrange viewings at our own show homes and customers’ homes across the country. These give you the chance to experience the materials, light and spaces in person.

Absolutely. We always start with the setting and help you find a solution that suits both your plot and the way you want to live in your home.

You have plenty of scope to shape your home. Our homes have a clear design foundation, but are always adapted through dialogue with you and in response to the characteristics of your site.

Building a holiday home

The cost of a summer house varies depending on its size, specification and site conditions. Our price always includes a turnkey home built from natural materials, with bespoke joinery and insulation for year-round use, delivered directly to your plot.

From initial idea to finished home, the process usually takes 8–14 months. The timeline depends on planning permission, site conditions and the scope of the project.

We always start with your site and your needs. We then develop proposals, help with planning permission and manage the entire building process, right through to a finished home you can settle into.

The most important things are understanding your plot, how you plan to use the house and the feeling you want to create. We guide you through every choice, ensuring a thoughtfully considered home from the outset.

Yes, our homes are always shaped by their setting and the life you want to lead there. We start with our house models, then adapt the floor plan so it feels just right for you.

Building regulations & site conditions

Yes, in most cases, planning permission is required to build a summer house. Regulations may vary depending on the municipality and the local development plan.

Yes, we help you throughout the planning permission process – from preparing drawings to liaising with the local authority. This makes the journey smoother and gives you peace of mind.

Our homes are designed to work in harmony with nature, even on more challenging plots. We use pier foundations to minimise disturbance to the natural surroundings and accommodate sloping terrain. With thoughtful positioning and design, the slope can become one of the home’s greatest assets.

Homes & quality

Yes, our homes are designed for year-round living, whether as a holiday home or a permanent residence.

We use well-insulated construction and sustainable materials to ensure low energy consumption and a comfortable indoor climate.

We choose our materials with care – natural, sustainable and enduringly beautiful. Materials that age gracefully and enhance the character of your home.

The difference lies mainly in how the home is used and, in some cases, the applicable regulations. Our homes are designed for flexibility – equally suited to holidays and year-round living.
