From the agent: “This climate-smart villa with its own system for heating, electricity, water, and nutrient recycling is completely off-grid. Live in one of the world's most sustainable and environmentally friendly houses. Here you can enjoy a longer summer with homegrown plants, including fruits and flowers. The natural villa blends into its scenic surroundings, which include a marina and promenade along Lake Vänern.”

“Naturvillan’s design language was based on following the tapered, pointed triangle-like tops of the conifers,” reads the listing. “The form gives, up close, a strong visual architecture with a very stable base directly on the mountain. The house blends in among the treetops and harmonizes with the landscape.”" layout="wide" credit="Photo by Marcus Eliasson" photoUserId=""/>Located in Western Sweden, the house is easily accessible from several major Scandinavian cities.
