Long-Term Rental: Riverside House with Extensive Land in Podlasie, Near Białowieża and Knyszyn Forest

This property offers a rare opportunity to rent a spacious house in a quiet, natural setting in the village of Litwinki, located in the Podlasie region of north-eastern Poland. It is intended for long-term living and is well suited for people who value space, nature and a slower, more grounded way of life.

The location is particularly attractive due to its proximity to two of Poland’s most important natural areas:
the Białowieża Forest, one of Europe’s last remaining primeval forests, and the Puszcza Knyszyńska, known for its vast landscapes, biodiversity and quiet forest trails.

Distances:

approx. 8 km to Kuźnica

approx. 15 km to Sokółka

approx. 53 km to Białystok

The area combines rural tranquillity with access to essential infrastructure, making it suitable for people who do not rely on daily commuting to a city.

House & Natural Surroundings

The house offers approximately 130 m2 of living space and includes:

five bedrooms

two bathrooms

a living area with a fireplace

a functional kitchen with basic appliances

The house is located directly next to a river, creating a calm and restorative atmosphere. A terrace overlooking the water provides a unique outdoor space for quiet mornings, focused work breaks or relaxed evenings.

The main plot covers around 2,000 m2, with access to an additional 8.5 hectares of land nearby, offering exceptional privacy and space.
Two garages are included.

Permaculture, Land-Based Projects & Workshops

Given the size, location and ecological context of the land, the property may be suitable for long-term, nature-based initiatives, such as:

permaculture or regenerative gardening

small-scale organic or ecological farming

educational, artistic and ecological or nature-related workshops

quiet retreats focused on sustainability, creativity or research

Any such activities would be subject to prior discussion and agreement, with preference given to responsible, long-term tenants who respect the land and its natural surroundings.
For Artists & Creative Work

The setting may also be particularly inspiring for artists, such as painters or sculptors seeking quiet, light and a strong connection to the landscape.
The changing reflections of the river, the surrounding greenery and the rhythm of the seasons offer an environment that naturally supports focused creative work, reminiscent of the way Claude Monet drew inspiration from nature and water landscapes.

This property may therefore suit creatives looking for a longer-term place of retreat and artistic concentration
