Västerskog

Sipoo, Finland

Västerskog is a peaceful log home in Sipoo, about 30 minutes from Helsinki. Set between forest and meadow, it offers privacy, space, and easy access to local walking paths, beaches, and village life.

Built in 2013, the house combines natural materials with modern comfort. The open living area includes a wood-burning fireplace, bright kitchen, and large windows that bring in light throughout the day. Three bedrooms and two bathrooms make the home well suited for families and small groups.

Outdoors, a jacuzzi, terrace, and gas grill provide space for relaxed summer meals. The garden includes a play area for children and opens directly toward the forest, where a lighted path leads into the woods and toward Söderkulla village.

Nearby, guests can visit small cafés, an art centre, and local shops, or follow the coastal road to Gumbostrand harbour with its restaurants, galleries, and brewery. Västerskog offers a calm base close to nature, yet within easy reach of Helsinki’s attractions and services.

Location

Sipoo

Västerskog sits in the southern part of Sipoo. While Helsinki is just a short drive away, the surroundings feel rural, with walking trails, berry-filled woods, and glimpses of the sea nearby.

Sipoo’s western coastline, including Gumbostrand harbour, offers a mix of cultural and recreational spots, cafés, art exhibitions, and seasonal markets along with jetties and small beaches. Further inland, the national park at Sipoonkorpi provides longer trails through old-growth forest and varied terrain. Västerskog’s location makes it easy to explore both the coast and countryside, while still staying connected to urban conveniences.

To Hike

Sipoonkorpi National Park

Sipoonkorpi National Park lies just outside Helsinki and showcases southern Finland’s forests, lakes, and quiet trails. For an easy walk, the Byabäcken Nature Trail (1.6 km) winds through forest and fields, while the Kalkinpolttajanpolku Trail (4.8 km) climbs Högberget hill with views and campfire spots. Other options, such as Knuters Trail (3.8 km) and the Storträsk–Gumböle loop (2.8 km), pass lakes and forest paths. Most routes suit families year-round, though some include steeper or rocky sections.

The Old Town is a popular spot for strolling, with small boutiques, cafés, and the iconic red shorehouses along the river. Guests can also visit the 15th-century Porvoo Cathedral, enjoy a walk along the river trail, or stop by Brunberg’s chocolate shop for local sweets. For a quieter outing, the nearby Iso Linnamäki hill offers forest paths and views over the town.
