Charming Kelohonka Chalet by the Lake – Near Salla National Park and Ski Resort
This stunning log chalet, built from aged deadwood pine (kelohonka), sits on one of the most coveted plots in Salla, offering uninterrupted views of the surrounding natural landscape. With the majestic Salla and Ruuhitunturi fells as a dramatic backdrop and the serene waters of Lake Keselmäjärvi shimmering under the summer sun, this property creates an atmosphere unlike any other. For those who value privacy, an adjacent recreational plot is also available for purchase, providing even greater seclusion while still being just moments from the renowned ski slopes and the pristine Salla National Park.
Thoughtful design is evident throughout the chalet, both in its layout and choice of location. The spacious living room—with panoramic windows framing the lake and mountain views—serves as the heart of the home. The generously sized kitchen features a baking oven and wood stove, ideal for preparing meals after a day of outdoor adventures. Comfortable bedrooms and a large loft area offer accommodation for up to 10 guests, making it perfect for families or groups. A striking central fireplace adds warmth and character, while the bathroom with lake-facing sauna provides a peaceful, restorative escape. An outdoor sheltered kitchen allows for al fresco cooking and dining in all seasons.
Built for year-round living, the chalet invites you to experience Lapland’s magic in every season—whether hiking, fishing, and berry picking in summer, marveling at autumn’s colors, or skiing and snowshoeing in the snowy winter months. This is a true haven for nature lovers and outdoor enthusiasts.
A recent condition inspection has been completed. Due to the building’s age, some modernizations are recommended, with cost estimates available upon request.
