cabin, located at Vinterbro by the Bunnefjorden outside Oslo, has gained significant fame through its appearance in the TV series “Exit”, where the financial elite indulged in luxury. Now, the 174 square meter cabin is up for sale in a challenging market, as the supply of expensive seaside properties is at a record high.
Owner Bjørn Kringstad admits that the timing may not be optimal, but he is excited to see any bids that come in. The cabin, built by Kringstad with the assistance of architects from Drøbak Arkitektkontor in 2014-2015, is situated on a small plot surrounded by an open air area and steep terrain, making it unobtrusive. The property features a 90-step staircase leading down to a private wharf, constructed with a total of 90 tonnes of granite.
Kringstad, who has poured his heart and soul into the cabin, expresses a heavy heart in selling it. The design and use of materials are exclusive, and although the cabin only has one bedroom, it boasts a designer bathtub and direct access to the terrace. While it takes 30 minutes to reach Oslo by car, a quick rib boat can transport occupants to the city in just 15 minutes.
In recent years, Kringstad has rented out the cabin for extended periods to both private individuals and events, including film recordings. The connection to the TV series “Exit” has been actively and successfully used to attract renters. However, Kringstad has now purchased a home on Ulvøya after renting on Nordstrand for several years. He explains that he wants a simpler life with less administration and that buying a home on Ulvøya is not cheap.
Kringstad had the option of buying a smaller home to live in while keeping the “Exit” cabin, or purchasing the larger home on Ulvøya, which can also serve as a holiday home. Ultimately, he chose a simpler life. Kringstad is eager to see the response to the cabin’s listing and hopes to receive the asking price.
Despite the challenges of the current market, the fame and unique features of the “Exit” cabin may attract potential buyers looking for a luxurious getaway just minutes away from Oslo.”The Famous ‘Exit’ Cabin Outside Oslo is Up for Sale in a Challenging Market”
