Houses For Sale In Europe (page 5)

Alright, I’ll try to squeeze this in between all my other showings today! If you’re searching for a country home in Sweden, I’ve got something interesting here in Bräcke, Gällö area—Dalhem 166 to be exact. I work with buyers from all over so I’ll try to give you a real idea of what it’s like to live in the middle of the Swedish countryside (honestly, you can’t call yourself a global agency agent if you haven’t seen all kinds of properties in all sorts of conditions, but this one’s nice, no need for too much daydreaming). Let’s start with the basics: You’re looking at a 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom home at around 58 square meters. The price? 48,100 euros, which is almost impossible to beat for a spot in Sweden with this much land (almost 3,000 sqm, seriously!). This house was built in the ’70s and is in good condition—no major fixes needed, but if you want shiny new kitchens and all that, you may want to put your own mark on it with some updates. For what it is, the place is tidy, dry and super usable as a “brukshus” (as Swedes call it—a practical cottage for living). You’ll find lots of those iconic wooden finishes here. As you step in, you’ll notice it has that open layout that makes it easy for the family to gather, but remember, this is a Swedish countryside house so don’t expect endless designer open-plan space—what you get is cozy and manageable. The main room is where you’ll likely spend your time in the chilly months; there’s a wood fireplace, and yes, it does heat up the space well. Sweden has real winter—don’t underestimate that! The bathroom is compact, simple, but works fine. The kitchen’s got all the essentials, nothing extravagant, but all in order and ready for daily use. There are 2 bedrooms, both with enough ... click here to read more

Alright, first off let me just say that homes like this one in Hammar don’t come up every day – and lately, as a real estate agent working with international buyers, I hardly have a minute free, but Sännavägen 9 is a place that really deserves a closer look if your planning on moving to Sweden or looking for that getaway cottage. I’ll give you a detailed overview, especially since most of my buyers these days are coming from overseas and want the full story about the local area, lifestyle, and what the house itself has to offer. This property is a solid year-round home located at Sännavägen 9, slap bang in Hammar, Askersund municipality. We’re talking about a Swedish countryside spot that feels like a breath of fresh air compared to busy city life – perfect for someone who’s looking for space, peace, and the real Scandinavian experience. The house itself was built in 1950 and it’s in good condition, not new, but it’s definitely been looked after. You won’t have to move in and start tearing down walls or dealing with leaks, but of course with any older place, you’ll probably want to put your own stamp on things over time. There’s a certain coziness to it – honestly it feels like the kind of place you take your shoes off and relax. The rooms aren’t huge – total indoor living space is 40 square meters, but it’s all been set up efficiently and you get: - 2 bedrooms - 1 bathroom - Living room for relaxing or socializing - Functional kitchen for the basics - Lower ceilings (just to be upfront, tall people will notice!) - Insulation and heating for winter living (a must in Sweden) - Connected to local water and sewage so no fiddling with wells or tanks - Traditional Swedish cottage design - Outbuildings for s ... click here to read more

Alright, let me try to put this in a way that’s realistic, detailed, and really gives overseas buyers a sense of what life’s like here. I’m juggling a lot right now with visits scheduled basically all day, but I know the importance of getting a real feel for a place, especially if you’re searching from another country or you’re moving with your family for work or a fresh start. So, here’s the rundown for this house in Nîmes—keeping it straight and practical, not over-promised. I’ll give you the real story of what it’s like here and what you’re actually getting. So this property is a traditional French house, located right in the heart of the Castanet district in Nîmes, which is a very established and sort of low-key, lived-in part of the city. This neighbourhood is known locally as very residential, a lot of families, some working professionals—mostly people who appreciate a bit more peace and want good access to city services. It’s pretty relaxed compared to the busy city center, but you’re not far from shops, bakeries, and, honestly, some solid local restaurants (I’ll mention that a bit more later). There’s a big student presence in Nîmes, too, thanks to the university, but Castanet is mainly a quieter pick. Now, let’s talk about the house itself. It’s not enormous, but for someone looking to get a proper French house with an actual garden — which is not always easy in Nîmes—this is right on target. You’ve got about 89 m² of living space (don’t expect anything palatial—the layout is practical, not flashy), and you’re looking at three decent bedrooms. The house is fully detached, so you do get some privacy—no thin walls with noisy neighbors, which can be a thing in the center. Here’s a short bullet point list of the ... click here to read more

Alright, thanks for your patience – as you can perheps imagine, it’s been a busy day with showings and quick phone calls, but Im glad to give you a deeper insight into this property for you as an overseas buyer looking for a chance to make a mark in Sweden, on beautiful Gotland, just outside of Visby. You’re looking at a classic countryside opportunity—a real fixer-upper with loads of potential. The property stands on Hejdeby Suderbys 236, which sits about a 10 min drive east of Visby, in the heart of Gotland, Sweden. This house is definitely one for someone not shy of a renovation project, maybe someone with a bit of imagination who wants to bring some history back to life and create a unique home for family, or as a creative retreat, or maybe even as a base for letting out to others who want to experience rural Swedish lifestyle. This property, built way back in 1900, was constructed in the traditional Gotlandic style, with a plastered facade that’s seen a lot over the years. You’ll see the bones are solid, the house has character and authenticity, but it’s clear when you walk in that it’s time for an update. The house hasn’t had extensive modernisation, so plan some work with tools—and maybe a little patience, too. The upside to this is you’re not inheriting someone else’s rushed DIY jobs throughout, so you can properly plan and make it your own from scratch. This is a two-bedroom, one-bathroom country home, 76 sqm living space and actually with an extra 92 sqm of secondary buildings or “bonus space”, so for those with ideas for workshops, home offices, or even maybe a guest studio, there’s a bit more here to play with than you might expect at first. But, let’s be realistic – the spaces are in need of renovation, s ... click here to read more

Alright, as a bussy agent for a large global real estate group, I’m gonna walk you thru this property in Bilzen-Hoeselt, Belgium (Bosstraat 26) – and just to let you know, I get a lot of interest from overseas and expat clients, so I’ll give you a fair idea what it’s actually like living around here too, not just what’s inside the walls. There’s a lot to cover, so let’s get to it. First of all, this house is a semi-detached, so you do have neighbours on one side, just so you know. The street is very quiet, tucked away in Rosmeer which is more of a village feel than a proper city, so you’re not gonna see heavy traffic out front or hear any nightlife at 2 am. It's not ultra-remote either – just comfortably out-of-the-way. You get the feeling you’re in the countryside, but you still can get anywhere pretty fast. This property might grab you if you like a mix of open-space living outdoors and a comfortable indoor life. There are no big fences, feels natural, and the views from the main windows are green. Let’s talk basics -- house was renovated 2019, so for Belgium the place is in pretty good shape. No giant project looming over you, but as always, any home will need upkeep. The roof, windows, heating, and electricity all up-to-date but don’t expect ‘brand new showroom’ gloss inside, it's not that kind of house. What you do get: warm, inviting spaces that are actually livable, and the renovation was done with energy use in mind (which in Belgium, makes your bills much easier to handle, trust me). About living space, 145 m² in total, set on a plot just below 600 m². Perfect size if you need a bit of garden and don’t want to spend your whole weekend on lawn work. If you’re a small family, this fits nicely, but also works fo ... click here to read more

As a busy real estate agent working with clients from around the world, I know how important it is to find a property that matches your lifestyle and meets your expectations, especially if you’re relocating internationally. Today I want to tell you more about an interesting house that’s just come up for sale near Bergerac in the Aquitaine region of France. This one stands out because it’s a spacious, 5-bedroom stone house that’s ready to move into, sitting right on the banks of the Dordogne river. I'll do my best to give you a real sense of what day-to-day life could look like here, what the local area has to offer, and what to expect. First things first, let’s talk about Bergerac. If you’ve never been here, Bergerac is a pretty well-known town in southwestern France, part of the bigger Aquitaine region (which is famous for its vineyards and rolling hills). The town itself is lively enough for most everyday needs – you’ve got multiple supermarkets, banks, a handful of international restaurants, weekly markets selling fresh local produce, and even a few English speakers if your French isn’t great yet. Bergerac is an attractive spot for expats and overseas buyers because there’s a real mix of French and international residents here. There’s a distinct relaxed vibe but plenty to do, and you’re about an hour’s drive from Bordeaux if you want big-city shopping or connections to international flights. As for daily living, Bergerac has a mild climate by French standards. Summers are hot and sunny, often reaching over 30°C but rarely feeling too oppressive thanks to the breeze from the river. Winters are mostly mild and rarely dip much below freezing, so you don’t have to worry about hard winters if you’re coming from the UK, ... click here to read more

As a busy real estate agent working with a lot of overseas clients, I get to see many properties in France, but now and then I come across one that really stands out for buyers coming in from abroad. This property I’ve just visited in Sainte-Croix, in the heart of Aquitaine, is just one of those. With 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, spread over about 185 square meters, it’s a stone house that people here call a “Petit Manoir.” It’s not everyday you find a place in France that ticks so many boxes for people relocating, buying a second home, or just wanting a bit of that French lifestyle. Let me start by giving you a bit of the local flavour. Sainte-Croix is a really nice village, mostly known to people who have been coming to this part of France for years. It sits in Aquitaine, which is a region famous for wine, sunflower fields, and that slow rhythm of village life you don’t always get elsewhere. The climate is, I’ll say, one of the highlights—mild winters and summers that are usually warm but not as punishing as in the far south. You can expect to spend a lot of time outside, making it good for anyone wanting to enjoy their garden or the pool during long afternoons. You’ll meet plenty of locals here, but also a good mix of expats and holiday home owners, so you don’t feel like the odd one out if you’re coming from overseas. If you’re thinking day-to-day life, the basics are all covered. There’s a bakery not too far off, a small supermarket, pharmacy and a couple of restaurants and cafés where you can actually get a seat without the tourist crowds you get closer to the coast. Bergerac and its airport is about 40mins’ drive, so getting here from the UK or the Netherlands isn’t too difficult, to be honest. The surrounding ... click here to read more

Ok, let me tell you a bit about this country home I’ve just got in my books recently here in Almåsa, Malmö – address Cyklamengatan 11. I’ll try to be quick since I got a few showings lined up for later today, but if you got questions, just reach out. I do a lot of deals with expats and people moving from abroad, so I’ll explain some good local info too – always important when buying in an area you don’t know. Let me paint you a picture of the property. It’s actually a nice, ready-to-live-in countryside cottage (not too big, just around 50m2), that’s been fixed up so you don’t have to tackle big renovations after moving in. That’s a relief considering how busy everyone is these days. There isn’t anything major left to do unless you want to personalize the space, which lots of buyers like to do anyway. The home dates back to ’69 so it has that genuine Swedish countryside feel but it’s been updated nicely, so it won’t feel like a time capsule. What I’m seeing more and more with buyers from other countries is the wish for authentic style but without broken pipes or drafty windows – I can say this place ticks those boxes, it’s what I’d call ‘good condition’ for Sweden. The guesthouse is a brilliant idea, whether you want the space for visitors or maybe an office, or just somewhere for teenagers to hang out away from you for a change. Here’s a quick list of what the property’s got (not everything, but the main things): - 3 bedrooms (including the separate guest cottage) - 1 bathroom with updated fixtures - Open plan living-dining-kitchen - Kitchen with basic appliances, ready to use - Renovated interior, bright and easy to maintain - Good natural light (big windows really make a difference) - Well-kept private garden, abou ... click here to read more

Hi there, busy agent here—so I’ll just dive right in with this one because time is always flying and calls keep piling up from around the globe! This is one for the buyers who want something special in Belgium, especially those coming from abroad, expats, or international families seeking more space and a real taste of local Belgian life. So, let’s talk about this detached villa at Voortjesweg 24, in Poppel, just outside Ravels, Belgium. It’s honestly a property that genuinely ticks a lot of boxes—not just for it’s size or location but also for the lifestyle it has on offer. This villa is in good condition, not some old wreck where you’d be replacing every window frame or roof tile before you move in, but of course you could bring your own style with a few updates or a light refresh here and there. Built in 1995, it’s got some years, but the bones are solid and the living space is move-in ready. That’s rare enough for this part of Belgium. Right out front you’ve got a big private plot— about 1,314 sqm—which means a lot of green, lots of elbow room, and space for the kids (or pets or even the in-laws if you want) to run around. You can really feel the calm, because you’re located on a quiet road right next to the woods. No city noise, no traffic. With 350 sqm of living area, you really get that space you might be missing if you’re used to smaller homes or apartments in busy cities. About the local area—Poppel is seriously relaxed. It’s a small village vibe, very safe, with friendly neighbours and a lot of nature all around. The region is also very cross-border: you’re minutes from the Netherlands, so if you work or have family connections across the border, that’s a real bonus. Antwerp isn’t too far either, maybe an ... click here to read more

Alright, so I’ve just finished another busy day showing listings in beautiful Lefkada and I wanted to get this description out since I’m getting requests from clients overseas about villas by the sea. If you are an international buyer or an expat dreaming about life in Greece, this place in Sivota is worth your attention – not perfect, but definitely loaded with good features. Let me walk you through this villa in Sivota, on Lefkada island. It’s in good shape overall, so if you’re worried about a “fixer-upper” project, relax — this one doesn’t need a ton of work to move in. For someone looking for something relaxing but also practical, this could tick most of the boxes. Let’s start with what you actually get: it’s a detached villa, about 65 sqm (not huge, but well laid out), with two bedrooms, one bathroom, in its own garden with some great panoramic views of the Ionian Sea and the Sivota bay. The plot itself is about 1,500 sqm, so there’s a lot of outside space, especially if you like gardening, sunbathing, BBQs, or just want privacy when you’re there. Inside, it’s all pretty straightforward. You’ve got a living room that feels open and bright because of the big French doors — seriously, every time I go there, the sea breeze just fills the place, which is amazing in this Mediterranean setting. The two bedrooms aren’t massive, but you can easily fit double beds or bunks if you’ve got kids or friends visiting. Both bedrooms have those same views out to the terrace — so you’re waking up to the sights and sounds of the sea, which, trust me, never gets old. The open kitchen is modern (but, honestly, not top of the line — solid materials, good layout, everything you need, just not “luxury” level). There’s a bathroom with ... click here to read more

Alright, I’ll try to keep this basic and straight-up the way some of my clients like it, because I am working round the clock between international viewings, digital meetings, and showing properties from Norway to buyers from all over the globe. And honestly, I get why people ask for the area info and what’s it actually like to have a chalet in Norway. It DOES matter, especially if you’re moving across a continent to make the most of your free time or want a robust long-term escape. So, here’s the scoop. I’m excited to present you with this chalet at Heivegen 657, 3854 Nissedal. Price is NOK 149600, which in today’s market for Norway countryside, is something interesting for folks wanting a real deal, not flashy newbuilds. I’ll cover the basics with a practical spin – I want buyers to get what works for them, not just what sounds too polished. I’ll walk you through what it’s like as someone who’s seen hundreds of cabins, both good and not-so-good. Let’s start with the property first. This chalet was built in 1976, so you won’t get all the shiny IKEA gloss but there’s something special about a place that’s already lived, you know? If you’re thinking of a project, well, you won’t have too much on your hands with this one. It’s in good condition, not a fixer-upper (so you don’t have to gut everything) but yes, it’s a bit older, so if you like modern lines, this isn’t for you – but for a lot of international buyers, that is the appeal. It’s ready to move in without big renovations, just maybe update a bit if you want to make it a little more personal. The layout is simple, and very practical: you get about 60 square meters in the main cabin, 2 bedrooms (both useable as sleeping spaces for a family or guests), compact but ... click here to read more

Alright folks, sorry for the shorter reply but honestly, I’m running all over the place today with viewings and calls, but I’ll do my best to paint a good picture for you because I know, especially for buyers overseas, how important it is to get a really clear sense of what you’re looking at—both in and out of the house. If you’re considering the region around Lanaken, honestly, it’s got a lot going for it for both families and people just wanting that balance between town life and accessibility to other big centres like Maastricht or even further into Belgium – you can really see why people from abroad keep coming here. Let’s start with the house itself at Stationstraat 137. You’ve got a house that doesn’t just feel like every other house on the market – it was built in the late 30’s, so you get those solid lines and a bit of personality, and then over the years there’s been some work put in to make it a comfortable house that actually feels good to live in (not always the case with houses of this age). Now, it’s not a perfect “brand new” house, but it’s in good condition, so you won’t need to rip everything out and start again. The last few owners have already done the big stuff and there’s a nice mix between those tougher older materials and some of the newer fitting (a bit industrial, a bit homey). You get four bedrooms here, so if you’ve got kids, or need a home office plus a guest room, it gives you a decent spread. Living here gives you a pretty decent amount of day-to-day space. The hallway when you walk in opens right up, so you don’t feel cramped. The lounge/dining has those big sliding doors onto the garden, which is great in the summer – and you actually get sun thanks to the south-east facing garden. Th ... click here to read more

Ok, so let me tell you a bit about this place – I’ll be honest, in my line of work, you get to see a lot, but spots like this come up not very often. I’m always running around, showing places all over the region and sometimes all over Europe, but this one here in Snillfjord – it stands out for its land size and its location. So what we have here at Flesvikveien 288 is a proper Norwegian farmhouse, situated right by the sea. The property covers over 630,000 square meters (yes, you read that right, that's hectares of land!), which is honestly great for anyone who's dreaming about space – whether you want to do a bit of small-scale farming, have some animals, or just need all of that nature and privacy, you get it here. Let me walk you through the property a bit, and I’ll try not to get too distracted, but there’s quite a bit to cover. The main house is not brand new, and you can tell it's seen some years, but it’s solid and totally usable as it is. If you want something super fancy with gleaming surfaces, you’ll probably want to do some updates, which you can really do in your own style. There’s a lot of history in the walls and with a bit of vision, you could definitely bring it up a notch, but nothing feels neglected or falling apart. I’d call it good condition overall, just expect a bit of modernizing here and there. Let’s talk spaces. The main house is over two floors: - Three bedrooms (not enormous, but they’re practical) - One bathroom (it’s basic, but gets the job done) - Two living rooms (good for family or guests) - Usable kitchen – space for the basics, cooker, fridge/freeze etc - Lots of daylight, these windows just soak it up - Wood-burning fireplace in the living area – always a plus in Norway’s winters - C ... click here to read more

Alright, let me tell you about this property – actually, I don’t have a lot of time so I’ll just get right to the point since I’m juggling a couple of international clients today, but here goes! For those who are looking for a place that’s not just a cabin in the woods but something you can really use and enjoy, this one at Kvernåa hytteområde 64 in Ljørdalen absolutely deserves your attention. If you are considering somewhere in the Norwegian mountains – honestly, as an agent for a global real estate agency, I see a lot of properties, and cabins like this don't come up all that often at this price and in this location. Let’s start with what it’s actually like. This chalet was built in 1974 and has been looked after over the years, so you’re not going to have to start gutting it before moving in (thank god). It’s sitting on a hillside, so you do get really decent views and you’re not surrounded by lots of other cabins—it’s private, but not isolated. With 53 square meters divided between the main cabin and an annex, you’ve got space for a small family, a couple, or even if you just want a mountain hideaway for yourself and a few guests every now and then. The main living area is cozy and practical. There’s a fireplace which, if you’ve stayed in Norway in autumn or winter, you know you’re going to appreciate. After a long day outside hiking, skiing, or whatever, a good fire is pretty much essential, and it really makes the space feel welcoming on cold evenings. There’s enough room for everyone to sit around after dinner. The kitchen isn’t huge, but it’s got what you need: space for food prep and all the basics covered. You can cook proper meals, nothing fancy unless you like to, but it gets the job done. There are two b ... click here to read more

Alright, so thanks for your patience, I’m just quickly typing this up between showings—if you’re looking at this property and thinking about making Sweden your home, or just want a little escape in the countryside, let me walk you through what we’ve actually got here at Österäng Mickelstorp 1, right outside of Götene. I work with international buyers all the time and I totally get it, relocating to another country means you wanna know what kind of area you’re buying into, what the house REALLY needs, and whether the lifestyle fits. So, let’s get into it. We’re looking at a traditional Swedish country home, a real countryside cottage (the locals would call it a “torp”), standing since 1882, and honestly, it wears its history in a good way. The house is not huge—just 51 square meters, you’ve got basically one bedroom and one bathroom—but it’s perfect for someone (or a couple) wanting a manageable spot, maybe for holidays or even as a creative retreat if work-from-home is your thing. If you’re a small family, there’s possibility to sleep more in the living area (people make it work here, trust me). The property’s in good condition, not ultra-posh or anything, but you don’t walk in and think you need to rip everything out. The original wooden floors are solid, there’s that Falu red paint outside so you get the picture-postcard look, and both the kitchen and living room have fireplaces that still get used when it’s chilly—which it can be, Sweden isn’t the Mediterranean, right? Let me paint you a little picture on daily living: mornings in summer, you can open up the veranda doors, have your coffee on the wooden deck and maybe watch a neighbor’s cows in the next field. There’s a robotic lawnmower doing its job in the backg ... click here to read more

Allright, so let’s walk you through this place, I have to say, as a busy estate agent, I come across a lot of properties in Uppsala, but this one here at Bellisvägen 238 in Tunabackar stands out if you're looking to try life in Sweden, especially if you're an overseas buyer or an expat dreaming about that little house with a big garden. And before I get too busy with my next viewing, here’s the real story about this cottage: what you see is what you get, no extra polish, no glamour, but loads of genuine Swedish allotment-living potential. So, this is a cozy allotment house, about 30 square meters, so we're not talking about a large villa, but a snug place maybe for a single person, a couple, or even someone with a young child who wants that proper garden life. It's not a modern city flat; it's a real house, built in 1948, has its years, but it's been kept up by people who cared for it. The price, SEK 69,500, reflects both the unique lifestyle and the fact you’re buying into a community and a bit of Swedish summer life, not just four walls. When you first enter, you walk up a traditional veranda—a Swedish "punch veranda", small but enough that you want to kick off your boots and leave the worries of the city behind. It gets good sunlight through the windows, which is always a big plus here when winter sometimes seems a bit too long. Inside, you've got a living room that doesn’t try to pretend it’s grander than it is. It’s open, with a fireplace—a really nice touch, but you'll need to get that inspected if you want to use it. I’ve got to be honest, this isn’t a place for big dinner parties, but it’s just right for quiet evenings in. The kitchen is pretty functional, with a fridge/freezer, stove, oven, good cabinets. You ... click here to read more

So here I am writing up about this property at Kjølhalveien 57, 3233 Sandefjord – and if you're looking from overseas, you really need the details on both the house and the area. I’m very busy these days showing homes in the region, especially to expats and foreign buyers curious about the Norwegian coast, so I’ll give you all the info you need. Honestly, if you're thinking about a true country_home lifestyle, right by the water, but still with access to the local community, this one might actually make sense for you. First, a bit about Sandefjord and the area around it, since that’s important for anyone coming from abroad. Sandefjord is known in Norway as a peaceful, friendly city right on the south coast, about 1.5 hours drive from Oslo and with good road and rail links. The city itself is proper Norwegian – clean, safe, with good schools and services, but also relaxed enough to really feel like a place for holidays or extended stays, not just a busy city. Lots of people here spend their summers down by the coast, hopping around islands, or out fishing and boating on the fjords – that’s really a big part of life here. The climate is probably nicer than most expect, with warmer summers than a lot of places in Norway (think 17-22°C on average July days) and the winters are cold, sure, but less harsh because of the coastal location – you will get snow but it’s not unlivable. People here are used to using their cabins year-round. If you've never lived country_home style in Norway before, let me be honest: it's about being outside, being part of nature. You spend your evenings on the terrace, you take your coffee down to the dock, and in summer you swim almost every morning. On weekends or after work, people go for hikes, ... click here to read more

Alright, let me try to get this out quick! I’ve got another viewing at 2pm so I’ll keep things moving, but you’ll want to read all of this if you’re overseas and thinking about buying a country home in Norway – this is a special spot and needs a closer look. At Slettavikvegen 14, right in the little coastal village of Veavågen, you’ll find a really substantial boathouse/country home just waiting for someone with a bit of vision. We’re talking a full 342 square meters of space, which honestly is way more than most boathouses you’ll see around here. The whole plot is 596 sqm and you’ve got 50 meters of your own private shoreline—real actual ownership of the land, not just a rental or something complicated. Now, I’m not going to sugarcoat things—this is a good condition property for its age, but be aware, it’s got a simple standard. If you’re after that shiny new feeling, this isn’t it. But, if you’re like many foreign buyers I meet—you want authenticity, space to do your own thing, and room for improvement—then this is right up your alley. It’s not a wreck at all, and you can use it straight away for storing boats, fishing, relaxing, but if you want it to be a real “home” style, you’re probably going to roll your sleeves up a bit and put your own stamp here. For anyone who likes a project with loads of upside, it has that rare potential. The main story here is the direct sea access. You’ve got a wooden jetty out the front, plus a stone pier, so if you’re into boating, kayaking or even just want to fish for mackerel at sundown, you’ve got front row seats. The main floor is a huge open area – you could use it for about a million things; boat storage, a big workshop, host your friends (there’s loads of space), or just keep ... click here to read more

Alright – Let me get right to the point, since I’m a bit flatout today as usual! Here’s a really interesting opportunity in Strömsnäsbruk for anyone looking for a manageable house with a big garden, nice location, and plenty of potential to settle into local Swedish life. If you’re an overseas buyer or expat looking for something realistic—not a perfect show-home but really a good place to settle or to use as a summer base—keep reading. So, just to give an idea, Strömsnäsbruk is one of these towns with that authentic Swedish small-town feeling, safe and friendly, with lots of nature around. You’re in southern Sweden here—in Småland, to be exact—so the climate is what you’d expect: real seasons. Winters can get cold, there’s snow, but houses here are generally built for it. The summer is mild, sometimes warm, lots of light in the evenings, which is great for outdoor life. This house is on Sollidenvägen 8, right in the quieter part of the area, so you get privacy but you’re not living in the middle of nowhere. The neighbourhood has a good mix of locals and international people, so you won’t stick out as a foreigner. It’s a genuine Swedish way of living. So about the property – first, I should say it’s not a brand new place, this was built originally back in 1939. People usually appreciate the sturdy construction, there are plenty of original features left. Condition-wise, it’s good, you won’t walk into a long list of repairs, but of course older homes always offer a few small jobs for the new owner. If you are hands-on or like to personalise things, you’ll probably enjoy making small adjustments as you go – that’s quite normal here. Entry is straight into a good size plot: 1,518 m2, which is a lot, even for Sweden. T ... click here to read more

Alright, I’ll give you the lowdown on this place in Vinstra, keeping in mind you’re probably looking from somewhere outside Norway—and there’s quite a lot to say, so just bear with my busy schedule. I’ll do my best to get you the details you need, but honestly, my phone’s always ringing and my next showing starts in an hour—let’s just dive in. First of all, if you’re dreaming about that Scandinavian cabin lifestyle, where you’re just steps away from pine forests and snow, but also not too far for a quick trip into town, this one might tick a lot of boxes. We’re talking about a real chalet (or hytte, as the locals call it), sitting up at 749 meters above sea level, so yes: views and clean air for days. The address—Åsvegen 370, Vinstra—is perfectly placed if you want the full Norwegian mountain and outdoor experience. For context, Vinstra is a friendly little town up in Innlandet county, set between the Oslo and Trondheim routes, so you get that authentic local feeling with good access in and out. The region’s known for those proper winters (so expect good snow, but nothing crazy that’s hard to handle—locals know how to deal with it), and beautiful, fresh summers where the sun can linger well into the evening. Now, as far as getting to the chalet: it’s actually not that isolated, despite how peaceful it feels up here. There’s a little grocery store just under 10 minutes drive away (handy for grabbing breakfast or fika on the weekends), a shopping center in about a quarter of an hour, and best of all, you’ve got a bus stop basically down the lane—literally two minutes by foot. So if you don’t always want to keep a car around it’s do-able, and guests can find you without much hassle, even in winter. Let’s talk about day ... click here to read more

Alright, so I’m putting this together for all you international buyers, expats and anyone looking for that quiet Swedish life not too far from Stockholm – but without all the city noise. Honestly, I’ve barely got a moment to sit and write this out because the Swedish market for country homes with real land is super busy right now, but I know how important it is for foreign buyers to really understand what this kind of life offers. So, let’s get straight to it. I want to talk about what it’s honestly like to move out here, especially for those of you coming in from warmer climates or big cities. Swedish country homes are a lot about fresh air, quiet, wooded privacy, and a bit of that simple life. This property, Brunnsåkersvägen 52 near Strängnäs, is a solid example of that classic “sommarstuga” kind of place – but unlike a lot, it’s definitely in liveable, good shape. Yes, not a big mansion or anything, but it gives you a great blank canvas without being a complete fixer-upper. If you’re thinking of relocating or having a getaway outside Stockholm, you’ll want to know the area has lakes everywhere—seriously, Sweden is full of them, and Mälaren is one of the most famous. The weather here does get all four seasons. Winters can be a bit tough if you’re not used to the cold, but I find people love the snowy landscapes, and summers are usually mild and full of long daylight hours. Expect to be outdoors a lot, whether you’re hiking, picking wild berries, or fishing out on the lake. Personally, after working all week with clients from everywhere, I sometimes wish I had more weekends free to take out a rowboat just down from this kind of property. Strängnäs itself is a medium-sized Swedish town known for that beautiful old cat ... click here to read more

Alright, let’s try to get all this in. So, I’m a pretty bussy real estate agent and my phone’s beeping as I write, but I really want you to get a clear picture of this country_home out here in Brøstadbotn, Norway. I work with buyers from all over the globe and I know a lot of people are looking for that “get away from it all” property that isn’t too isolated - so read on for the important info, especially if you’re from out of Norway and want to know what it’s REALLY like to live here! The property is located at Vinjeveien 308, about 10-15 minutes drive (depending if you get stuck behind sheep!) from the small centre of Brøstadbotn. We’re in Dyrøya, which is known locally as one of the prettiest islands around this part of Troms. If you want that mix of open land, fjord views and forests, it doesn’t get much better. Life’s not fast here – it’s more about being close to nature, breathing clean air, and just having space around you. You get over 367,000 square meters of land. That’s not a typo. If you want privacy, this is a rare chance, but you can still drive in all year, so it’s not cut-off in winter (which is important in Norway, let me tell you). The main house dates from all the way back in 1901, and yes, it’s obvious in some ways. The walls have character, you get a bit of uneven here and there and the floors sometimes squeak. I personally think that’s just part of what you buy with a house this age. It’s in good nick, been kept up quite well, and has what you need for modern living. In Norway, we don’t hide the age of a building – we say it like it is. The property is GOOD, it’s not pristine-new, but you move in and live, no need for big renovations unless you fancy updating for your own taste or doing a bit of p ... click here to read more

Alright I’ll try to get this down as best I can between showings—it’s quite a villa and a great opportunity for families, expat buyers, or anyone looking for that solid lifestyle in Belgium. I’ll give you a full picture (as much as possible), especially for my international clients who may not know Lommel well. If you’re looking for a villa, a bit of room to grow, work, play, or just enjoy some peace, honestly this one ought to be considered. Let’s paint the real story here. We’re in Lommel, a smaller city up in the north of Belgium, right near the Dutch border. It’s a friendly place, you’ll notice that as soon as you arrive—people say hello in the shops, things aren’t frantic, and it’s not hard to meet your neighbours. Lommel’s got a mix of local Belgian culture with a bit of that Dutch influence thrown in due to proximity, and many expats find it’s a softer landing than bigger cities like Brussels or Antwerp. A lot of families, both local and international, settle here for the balance of work opportunities, schooling, and nature. Honestly, climate in this part of Belgium is pretty typical for the region—expect temperate weather, not crazy hot summers, not too harsh winters. You’ll get some rainy days here (it’s Belgium, after all!), but the setting is green almost all year, and summers can be just lovely, especially if you’re into outdoor life or gardening. So, the actual villa at Konijnenpijp 69: Built in 2017, it’s not brand new but it’s in very solid condition—really more move-in ready than you usually find, though some surface finishes (paint, a bit of customisation) are still waiting for the personal touch. The place is set in a very quiet cul-de-sac so you don’t have through traffic zipping by. It sits on a la ... click here to read more

Hi and thanks for clicking through! As a real estate agent constantly on the go, working with buyers from across the globe, I know how important it is to find that right property, especially if you're searching for a true getaway in Sweden's countryside. Let me tell you about this unique opportunity in Enhörna—I've had a ton of international clients ask about these kinds of homes lately, and this one really offers the best of both worlds. So, let’s set the scene—a genuine country_home/cottage, tucked away at Fågelsjön 23 in the leafy outskirts of Enhörna, which falls under Södertälje municipality. You’re looking at roughly a 30 square meter home, classic design, originally built in the 1960s. No bathroom or bedroom defined, but it’s a single room open-plan, so it really gives you flexibility for refurbishing the interior the way you want (people usually bring in compost toilets, or set up a simple wetroom in these kinds of summer cottages). The plot itself is actually pretty large by Swedish summer cottage standards, right around 1,000 square meters, and it’s a real mix of woods and clearings. There’s a bit of garden, couple of tall pines, birch—looks lovely in both summer and autumn, honestly, but it still needs a bit of work if you want to take it to that next level. Kids, pets, or anyone who likes a big open space to play or garden will appreciate it. I find international buyers are always surprised by just how peaceful these spots are—here you get total privacy, you’re not right on top of the neighbors (Swedes really like their own space). Even during holiday season it’s usually calm and quiet. The climate out here in Enhörna—Swedish summers are mild, around 20-25 degrees Celsius, long daylight hours (can still be ... click here to read more

Okay, so I’m going to be straight with you, as a busy agent working in global real estate, I get that overseas buyers and expats are looking for homes with some honest info, both about the property and the area. You probably have a million questions, so I’ll try to cover as much as I can without drowning you in estate agent lingo. I’m working on so many properties lately, so let me just dive right in before my phone starts ringing again! So, we’re talking about a stone house located in Berg, which is right near Bergerac in the Aquitaine region, postal code 24100, France. If you’re looking for a place that’s already good to go – not a full-on project or major fixer-upper – but maybe a few tweaks here and there depending on your taste, then this could work for you. It’s a roomy house, big enough for a family or even someone needing that extra space for guests, remote work, or just liking a bit of distance! The house is set in a proper old hamlet, which means you’re not in a noisy town. It’s pretty peaceful, and most of the neighbours are locals, mixed with a few British expats who got lucky with the timing. You’ll be only a few minutes’ drive from all the main shops, services, and good restaurants – honestly the food scene is fantastic around Bergerac, with proper markets, cafes, the bakery. There’s that real French way of life, which is laid-back but not lazy, and things tend to run at a slower pace here, which can take a bit of getting used to. But once you’re here, you realise the perks – fresh produce, local wine (can’t beat the Bergerac reds!), and just an overall safe and family-friendly vibe. Let’s talk about the house itself for a sec. It’s traditional stone, typical for this area, with six actual bedrooms. That ... click here to read more

Alright, so this country home really offers a chance for buyers—especailly expats and international folks—to have that classic Swedish west coast summer life, but with a straightforward, no nonsense approach. I get a lot of questions from buyers about what it’s actually like to live here or own a country place, so I’m going to break things down for you. I’m an agent based localy, but also working with a lot of global clients, so I know the type of info you’ll need before making a decision, especailly if you’re coming in from abroad. The property is located at Ängsliden 3, in Härnäset, part of the Lysekil municipality (for those who haven’t been here, it’s on Sweden’s famous Bohuslän coast, which is on the west side facing Norway). I’ve been super busy this season, and honestly, good places like this don’t last long—so if you’re considering a Swedish getaway or a home for the whole family, it’s worth a look. Let me start by talking about the house itself. The main home is about 70 square meters, so it’s compact, but well arranged for summer or year-round living (some folks do live here all year, but it’s more common as a summer place). You get three bedrooms, which makes it good for a family, or if you’re having guests over, which I know is always important for overseas buyers that want to host friends or family from back home. The bathroom setup is typical for these properties, with one toilet inside the house, and the shower accessed from the outside—yes, it feels a little bit different at first, but most owners end up loving it, say it’s practical for after a swim, or washing off after hiking or playing outside. Story-wise, picture arriving in Sweden after a flight, and just a short drive from Gothenburg—maybe an ho ... click here to read more

Alright – let me take a moment in between showings and write you up an honest, detailed story about this special place I have out in the Swedish countryside. I’m often showing properties all over, but this one grabbed my attention for a few reasons, and it’s got that right mix for someone looking for a private home in Sweden that’s still not too far from things. I know my overseas clients have a lot of questions about area and climate, so I’ll break it all down. Let’s start with the basics and I’ll weave in my observations along the way. Located up in the north of Sweden, just outside the small but growing town of Kåge (around 10 min to Skellefteå by car), you’ll find this cottage-style country home sitting on Övägen 107. This is solid country living, but you’re not totally isolated; you get those woods and the peacful setting, but if you need milk or want a coffee out, it’s not a huge drive or hike to town. First off, the cottage isn’t massive at 48 square meters, it’s more designed for either a single or a couple, or maybe as a peaceful little retreat for someone who wants an escape from the city chaos – though you could use it as your full-time home if you like that way of life. There’s just one bedroom, but it’s roomy, and then there’s 1 bathroom that’s been updated recently. I’ve seen people convert sleepy cottages like this into a full-time home with no trouble, maybe use the upper floor for guests – it works if you want the basics plus some comfort, and don’t need extra luxury. There’s also a proper sized plot – 1,964 square meters, so if you dream of a garden (or maybe keep chickens, classic country stuff), you’ve got the space. Let’s talk features and layout, quick bullet-point style: - Approx 48 sqm interio ... click here to read more

As a global real estate agent with a lot of buyers coming from different countries, I'm always on the run and have to move fast, but I still wanted to take the time to give you a detailed rundown because this is the kind of property I get asked about a lot. Here in the beautiful French countryside, you can find some real surprises and honestly, this house in Pardaillan is one of those I’d show to anyone looking for “real France”—space, peace, and the kind of lifestyle you can’t always get in the city. Let me just start off by saying Pardaillan is not the biggest spot on the map, but if you know the southwest of France, you’ll know it's kinda near Eymet and Duras, two villages a lot of international buyers flock to for good reason. So let’s talk about location — and why so many expats and international residents choose this area. First, the seasons: down here in Aquitaine you get warm, sometimes even hot, summers. Winters are usually gentle, and the spring and autumn stretch on for ages — the kind of weather where you can sit outdoors most of the year. It’s what makes the pool and terrace such a bonus in this house—that outdoor living is a real thing here. Imagine morning coffees as the sun comes up, or a family barbecue that lasts into the evening with smooth local wine (let’s not forget Duras and Bergerac are two pretty big wine areas—maybe you already know that). Now, about living here: When you move to rural France, especially Aquitaine, you settle into a slower pace. There’s a community feel. The local markets are a big deal, with fresh produce, cheese, and artisan stalls, so if you like cooking or want to eat healthy, you’ll find it easy and affordable. If you’ve got kids or are planning on having guests or exte ... click here to read more

Alright, so I’m juggling several viewings today but wanted to get this out to you as quick as possible. I’m an agent for a global agency and I’ve sold homes both locally and abroad, so I understand what international buyers are looking for, especially those searching for a second home or a peaceful retreat. Here’s one property in Norway’s Hylkje that truly fits the bill for someone craving authentic country living by the sea, and it’s not too far from Bergen either. Let’s start with the property itself – it’s a proper country home, but not your usual move-in ready home, I’m going to be straight up. The cabin was built in 1942, so as you’d expect, it’s got a lot of character from another era, but it does need some renovations. It’s a fixer-upper for sure, but if you’re looking for potential and want to put your own stamp on things, this is one to look at. The size isn’t huge inside, about 27m² living area, but that’s absolutely typical for Norwegian cabins of this age. There’s more usable space outside though, with a total of 94m² including outbuildings and storage, which is really quite practical for boats, tools, gear, and just general country living. What really makes this property special if you ask me, is the land and the location. You’ve got about 5,131 square meters – that’s over an acre – and about 28 meters of private shoreline. Private shoreline is really rare these days, and this bit leads straight down to your own boathouse and dock. The boathouse is a tad rustic but does the job and could be fixed up with a bit of effort. The dock means you can have a boat right outside your door, and for anyone who loves fishing, boating, or even just swimming, this is a huge plus. Let me pause on the area for a minute. H ... click here to read more

Alright, so here is the new property description, written as though by a busy agent in a big global network, with the requested features and style: So, I've recently taken on this property in Beaumontois-en-Périgord, which honestly is a great opportunity especially for those who want to settle in the beautiful south-west of France. I'm getting lots of requests for these stone houses lately, they don't come up very often, and this spot is quite handy for people who want to live close to both nature and history. Let me set the scene a little. Beaumontois-en-Périgord is right in the heart of Aquitaine, in the Dordogne region, which a lot of expats will know is pretty famous with foreign buyers. The air is clean, the landscape is green, and here you really get the feel of living in a French village but still just a short hop from bigger towns like Bergerac for all your shops, transport, or a night out in town. Now, living here isn’t like living in Paris or London – you’ll need a car, for sure, because public transport is limited, but in return you get tons of space, privacy and that French rural lifestyle that is getting harder to find these days. The climate is temperate, winters are usually pretty mild (might get a few frosts, but very little snow) and summers are warm but not stifling. It’s a really good place for those who enjoy being outside, with loads of walking, cycling routes, and of course you can head to the local markets almost every week. There’s a real community feel, especially among those who've moved here from abroad – quite a few English speakers around, so you won't feel isolated if your French is not perfect yet. About the property – this one's a proper stone house, so if you’re dreaming of solid wall ... click here to read more

Alright, thanks for getting in touch. I’m currently juggling quite a few clients (the property market in this area gets busy, especially among overseas buyers!), so apologies if this is a bit rushed, but let me give you a clear, honest picture of this bungalow at Withuisstraat 34, 3790 Voeren, Belgium. This is a detached bungalow, so all the living happens on one floor, which always makes life a bit easier, especially for families with young kids, retirees, or anyone who doesn’t want to bother with stairs anymore. The house itself was built back in 1969 but received a significant renovation just about five years ago, so while you’ll notice some touches that reflect its age, most of the main systems and finishes are up to date. You won’t be walking into a fixer-upper, but it’s not that hyper-new construction feel either – more like a settled, well looked-after home that’s ready for your own personal twist if you want. Let me start by talking about the area, since most of my clients are either expats or coming from overseas and really want to know what’s it like to live here. Voeren is in the eastern part of Belgium, right at the border of the Netherlands, so it’s very international in feeling. In fact, you’re only about a 10-minute drive from Maastricht, which is a major town over the border in the Netherlands, with great shopping, cultural events, universities, and a vibrant expat community. The area around Moelingen, where the property sits, is really beautiful – you get those rolling hills, loads of green countryside, small picturesque villages all scattered around. Lots of people who move here are drawn by the combination of rural peace and easy access to urban life. The climate is what you’d expect in this part of ... click here to read more

Here’s my rewrite as a busy global real estate agent, focusing on overseas buyers, reflecting the property’s condition, lifestyle, and the local area, with purposeful minor errors in grammar and spelling, and using a story-like flow: ------------------------------------------------------- As a real estate agent working with buyers from all over the world, I want to give you a straightforward preview of this country home at Ryttarstigen 203, here in Långsand – just outside Skutskär, Sweden. I’ll be honest, I’m juggling a lot of clients these days, but this property really stand outs for buyers searching for that Swedish get-away – especially if you’re an expat or coming from overseas. The house is ready to move in but sure, it has some rooms to update, nothing too crazy though. Let me walk you through the lifestyle here and what the area’s all about, which is really important if you don’t know Sweden or this region yet. First off, Långsand is part of Älvkarleby kommun, about 10 min drive to Skutskär, pretty close to Gävle and an hour twenty-five to Stockholm for quick city visits. The area feels quiet but not remote, and is best for people who don’t mind a slower pace and appreciate a coastal feeling. This is a good choice if you want that country home atmosphere but don’t want to totally isolate yourself. The climate here is what you'd expect up north, with real seasons – snowy winters (nice for cross-country skiing and sauna life), pretty crisp spring and autumn, and summers that get a bit warm but not roasting, usually somewhere around 18-22 degrees C in July, and the long daylight is amazing in summer. Winters, again, get dark and colder (-5 or even lower sometimes), but Swedish houses are built for it. The prope ... click here to read more

Alright, let me tell you a bit about this house I just got on the books – it’s honestly quite a unique find, right up in the hills above Saint-Jean-de-Cole, in the Dordogne – that’s deep in the heart of the Perigord Vert, if you haven’t visited yet. I’m handling a pile of client viewings right now as real estate is always moving quick in this region, but this place really stands out, so I thought I’d make time to put together as much as possible for those of you overseas looking for your home in France. First, to set the scene – Saint-Jean-de-Cole is one of those French villages you see in the postcards. It’s officially classified as one of the most beautiful villages in France, which is no small feat – you’ve got medieval stone bridges over a slow river, timbered houses, quiet cobbled lanes, and a local baker who really does know everyone’s name. For expats and foreign buyers, it really does tick a lot of boxes: authentic but not touristy, French but still friendly to newcomers, and with a small international community that hosts its own events now and then. Plus, the countryside here—the Perigord Vert—is rolling, green and lush with forests, lakes and pretty walking routes everywhere, and the climate is definitely something to brag about if you come from anywhere with harsh winters or hot cities. You’ll have warm springs, hot but never overwhelming summers, nicely crisp and nearby-mist mornings in autumn, and soft winters where snow is something you’ll see on headlines, not on your doorstep. This property is perched a little above the village, so you really get the sense of privacy, space, and a “big sky” view – whether you prefer evenings outside watching the sun go down, or just want a quiet morning coffee on the t ... click here to read more

Let me just say, it’s a real treat to get to present a property like this, especially to my overseas clients and expats who might not know much about this corner of Norway, but are looking for something really special and authentic. I’m a pretty busy agent but I always try to give that extra local insight, so I want you to imagine yourself arriving by boat at Flesvikveien 286, right here in beautiful Snillfjord. This is one of those cabins—a chalet, really—that doesn’t come around often, and its story and location are definitely worth hearing about. Let’s start with the location, because for many buyers from abroad, the setting is what Norway’s all about. Snillfjord is in Trøndelag, which isn’t the most famous region in Norway, but that means it’s less crowded and still really pure, with a lot of wild landscape everywhere you look. The cabin is on a little peninsula, so you’re completely surrounded by the fjord and forest, just water and sky out the windows. It’s a calm, private place but friendly for families or anyone who loves hiking, boating or fishing. The only way to get here is by boat—a lot of Norwegian cabins are like that—which makes arriving at your place feel like the start of a real adventure, every single time. Now, to be honest, this chalet isn’t huge. It’s about 32 square meters, so you’re not hosting massive parties inside, but that’s not what most people want from a Norwegian cabin anyway. Usually, you’re spending half your time outdoors—there’s a terrace here that’s almost double the size of the inside, about 61 square meters, partly covered so you’re good in any weather. The terrace looks straight onto the fjord and the hills, and honestly, it sort of becomes your outdoor living room. Imagine taking ... click here to read more

Hi guys, thanks for taking the time – I know time is precious and so is finding the right spot if you’re buying property overseas. As an agent who works with buyers from all over the world and deals with all sorts of schedules, I’ll try to keep it focused but thorough – because honestly, properties like this don’t come up that often in this area and the market here in Norway can move quick, especially for chalet style homes with these kind of surroundings. So, for anyone considering a move or just looking for a holiday haven in Norway, let’s have a closer look at this chalet at Nøringsetvegen 64 in Mauseidvåg (postcode 6036 for you planners out there). Let’s start with the big picture – where is it? Mauseidvåg is a village in the beautiful Møre og Romsdal region, which is one of those classic west coast spots that gives you all the fjord and mountain action you’re dreaming about. You’re surrounded by deep green hills, snowcapped peaks, and those striking blue waters that are basically the definition of Norwegian postcard. I get a lot of interest from expats, digital nomads, retirees, and families who want access to true ‘Norwegian nature’ but also the practical stuff like shops, schools, and transport – you’ll find all of that here, but it never feels crowded. In fact, it’s actually pretty peaceful and safe and people in the village are welcoming, even if you’re new or speak English. Local climate deserves a quick mention. This is west coast Norway, so you’ll get all four seasons – mild summers (average 13-20°C), maybe a bit of fog off the fjord in early mornings, and winters with a nice dusting of snow, but not too harsh compared to some spots further inland. It’s definitely the kind of place where you can barbecue o ... click here to read more

Hey, thanks for taking a look at this opportunity—I’ll try to make this as detailed as I can, but got a lot on my plate today, busy season as always. Anyway, my name is Maria and I work with lots of international buyers, so if you’re overseas and interested in Swedish property (especially the mountain kind), you're in the right place. I want to introduce you to a very unique spot in Sweden, up in the peaceful regions of Jämtland: Enafors Vackermon 769, over in Duved, not too far from the famous Åre ski resort. It’s really something quite different from city life, more a return to nature—honestly not everyones cup of tea, but if you’ve been dreaming of a proper mountain chalet, a getaway from the world, this is worth checking out. So right off the bat, this is a small log cabin, about 25 m² (not huge! but cozy) sat on a 1,600 m² wooded lot. The cabin stands alone in the forest, set down a gated track, so you do get a real sense of privacy. For international and expat buyers, I want to be clear: this isn’t a luxury villa or a “move-in tonight” spot—it’s a simple, authentic log structure, standing in good, solid condition, but with only the basics in place. Not a lot of extras but it's got a lot of potential. For some people, it’s that “blank slate” dream, for others it might feel a bit too rustic. And here’s the truth—this property doesn’t have mains electricity, no piped water, no drain/sewage lines, nothing like that. There is an outhouse—it’s not fancy, but it works. That can be a dealbreaker or a dealmaker, everyone’s different. If you imagine running solar panels and making it off-grid, putting in a borehole for water maybe, or just using it mostly in summer, it’s got real possibility. If you absolutely must have c ... click here to read more

Nestled amidst the enchanting landscapes of Denmark, this farmhouse at Ribberholtvej 20 offers not just a home, but a lifestyle some can only dream about. Situated a stone's throw away from the lively town of Frederikshavn and the charming village of Ravnshøj, it captures the essence of Danish rural living with an added bonus: that sense of tranquility that city life just can't offer. It's not quite isolated, but far enough for those craving a slower pace and a connection to the land. With a living area that stretches to 179 square meters, this farmhouse is waiting to be transformed into something special. Built back in 1927 and receiving a bit of a facelift in 1974, the home retains a solid structure giving it that sturdy feeling - a true mark of its era. While it's in good condition, it's a bit like stepping back in time. From the 60s/70s styled kitchen that brings a nostalgic vibe with authentic charm to the large L-shaped living room perfect for cozy gatherings, it's got character. Let's not forget to highlight those bedrooms – five in total! This provides a unique canvas for anyone looking to craft extra personal spaces such as home offices or perhaps a painting studio. There's only one bathroom, but with two additional toilets scattered about, there's always a convenience around the corner., The recent addition of a modern heat pump ensures the whole house remains toasty year-round. For those who relish the out-of-doors, the sprawling lot of over 36,000 square meters is ideal. Picture your own personal haven where you could easily enjoy a quiet afternoon walk or maybe pursue some new hobbies. Maybe even start that orchard you've always dreamed of.
