Lava House
A contemporary residence set within an ancient lava field, where Danish-crafted interiors meet Icelandic wilderness just 15 minutes from Reykjavík.
Set within an ancient lava field in Iceland's Capital Region, this elegant 930 m² villa brings together nature, privacy and modern design. It lies 30 minutes from Keflavík Airport and 5 minutes from Reykjavík, making it a well-placed base for exploring the region.
In front of the villa lies a picturesque lake with fish, adding to the peaceful natural surroundings. The property is also close to a large park featuring an expansive lake and scenic trails for hiking, cycling and running. Hiking trails begin nearby, and Heiðmörk Nature Reserve is a short walk away. Guests also have access to a lake by way of a path or dock, and a launderette is located in the area.
Outside, a fully fenced private back garden is furnished for alfresco time and has a gas barbecue with grilling utensils. A private hot tub is available all year round and open 24 hours, reached directly from the lower-floor guest room through full-height glass windows. The master bedroom opens onto its own outdoor terrace, and the house has a private entrance, free parking on the premises, free on-street parking and an EV charger.
Arrival is through an entrance and reception area with a large guest bathroom, opening into a generous hall that connects every part of the house. The kitchen is fitted with Gaggenau appliances, including a refrigerator, electric cooker and stainless steel oven, alongside an island breakfast table and a large wine cooler. Interiors throughout were custom made by the Danish manufacturer Boform. A spacious dining area warmed by a fireplace flows into the living room, which looks out over the garden. The main floor also holds a family TV room, one bedroom, a bathroom and a 60 m² garage.
The upper floor has three bedrooms, among them the master bedroom with its own bathroom, shower and terrace access. The main bathroom features a Bof bathtub, with floors and walls clad in high-quality Swiss stone. Bedding includes a king bed in one room and a queen bed in another, dressed in cotton Yves Delorme linen, and there is a walk-in wardrobe for clothes storage.
The lower floor is given over to leisure and work, with a large family room centred on a pool table and a large plasma screen, an office area, a guest room and a bathroom with shower. A private gym in the building and exercise equipment complete the picture. All spaces are open to guests apart from the storage area and the garage cellar.
For entertainment there is a 75-inch HDTV with Netflix, a PS5, a record player, a Bang & Olufsen Bluetooth sound system, books and board games. Families will find a cot, a high chair, children's tableware, books and toys, and babysitter recommendations are available. The kitchen is further equipped with a microwave, dishwasher, freezer, mini fridge, kettle, Nespresso coffee maker, toaster, blender, baking sheet, wine glasses and cooking basics. Practical comforts include wifi, an ethernet connection, a dedicated workspace in a room with a door, a free washer and dryer, an iron, a drying rack, central heating and an indoor fireplace.
