We live in a relatively new (2008), large house (170 sqm) in a very nice neighbourhood just outside the beautiful city of Stockholm. With bus/train it takes just 20 min to the city centre (10 min by car).

Close to our house (2 min walk) there is a lake where our children like to go swimming. If the lake is too chilly, we now also have a jacuzzi in our garden.

By walking distance from our house there is a convenience store, a bakery, a deli and two fine restaurants. There are also playing grounds and a beautiful forest.

Stockholm city centre has a lot to offer all ages - interesting culture, shopping, nature and restaurants. Stockholm also has a lot to explore by boat - the archipelago just outside the city has 30 000 islands of which many are easily accessible by public boats.
