Six o'clock on a July morning and the light here is already gold. You push open the kitchen window and catch the faint salt-and-pine smell drifting up from the water at Räfsnäs, just five minutes down the track on foot. The coffee is on. Somewhere across the garden, a wood pigeon is doing what wood pigeons do. This is Bokenäs — and if you've never spent a summer on this stretch of the Bohuslän coast, you're in for a genuine revelation. Hjalmars väg 5 sits on a southwest-facing plot in the Eriksberg neighborhood, a quietly sought-after pocket of Uddevalla municipality where most houses go dark from September to May and come magnificently alive in June. The property dates from the 1930s and carries that era's unhurried sensibility: proper rooms with real proportions, large windows that pull the garden indoors, and the kind of robust timber construction that has laughed off nine decades of Swedish winters without drama. Three bedrooms, two living rooms, one bathroom — 76 square meters of main house that feels bigger than the number suggests, partly because of those windows and partly because the layout was designed for actual living, not a floor-plan brochure. The garden is the heart of everything. Southwest aspect means sun from late morning until the evenings go rose-pink around ten o'clock in high summer. There's room for a long table under the trees, a hammock, a patch for growing tomatoes that never quite ripen but you keep trying anyway, and enough grass for children to run themselves properly tired. The guest cottage — a simple, functional annex on the same plot — handles the overflow when friends arrive, which they will, repeatedly, once word gets out you have this place.

Early July, seven in the morning. You slide open the door to the south-facing terrace with a mug of coffee, and the only sound is wind moving through mature birch trees at the edge of your 844-square-meter garden. In ten minutes, you can be standing barefoot on the sandy beach at Årsta Havsbad's bathing area, watching kayakers cut across the water toward the outer archipelago. This is not a fantasy—it's a Tuesday. Sitting on Arkitektvägen in Haninge municipality, about 30 kilometers south of Stockholm's center, this 1952-built single-storey house with basement is exactly the kind of find that locals talk about quietly among themselves. Small, honest, and genuinely good—43 square meters of considered living space that makes you rethink how much room you actually need when the outdoors is this close. The layout keeps things simple, which is part of the appeal. An open-plan kitchen and living area forms the core of the home, anchored by a fireplace that earns its keep from September through April, when the Swedish coast takes on a different, sharper beauty. On October evenings, with the fire going and rain tapping the large windows, this room feels properly sheltered and warm—the kind of atmosphere you can't manufacture in a new-build. The two bedrooms are well-proportioned and quiet. The tiled bathroom is clean and functional, with a shower. Below the main floor, a basement handles laundry and storage, freeing up the living areas to feel uncluttered. Then there's the separate guest cottage—a friggebod of around 15 square meters sitting beside the main house. Guests get their own space. Or you reclaim it as a writing room, a studio, somewhere to work remotely during those long Swedish summer days when the light refuses t ... click here to read more

Picture this: it's six in the morning in early July, the Swedish sun is already up and flooding the birch trees outside your kitchen window with that particular pale gold light you only get this far north. You pull on a sweater, step out through the covered terrace, and walk 300 meters down to the stone beach at Edsviken for a swim before anyone else in the neighborhood has stirred. That's not a fantasy — that's Tuesday in Grovstanäs. This two-bedroom year-round house at Edsviksvägen 35 sits on a genuinely generous 2,004 square meters of Swedish bedrock and forest. The plot feels less like a garden and more like a piece of the archipelago landscape that happened to come with a house on it. Exposed granite outcrops push through the ground, tall pines creak when the wind picks up off the water, and a stretch of well-tended lawn closer to the house gives children room to run and adults somewhere to set up the grill on a long summer evening. The storage shed handles the practical overflow — kayak paddles, snow boots, fishing rods — so the house itself can stay uncluttered. Inside, the 67 square meters are arranged sensibly and without wasted space. The kitchen, dining area, and living room flow into each other in a single open space, which means that whoever's cooking isn't excluded from the conversation happening three meters away. The large windows in the living room do real work here: they pull in light from the surrounding trees and, depending on the season, frame snow-covered spruce or the vivid green of new birch leaves. The covered terrace off the living room extends that indoor-outdoor feeling and means you're not chased inside the moment a cloud passes over — in the Swedish archipelago, that resilience matters. Th ... click here to read more

Early on a Saturday morning in July, the smell of pine resin drifts through the open bedroom window. Somewhere down the slope, a loon calls out across Lake Roxen. You pull on a sweater, walk barefoot across the wooden floor to the kitchen—renovated just a few years ago—and put the kettle on while the Contura stove still holds the warmth from last night. This is not a fantasy. This is a regular Saturday at Lövviksvägen 6 in Göten, a quiet pocket of Östergötland that most international buyers have never heard of, but probably should. The house sits on 2,203 square meters of land—a genuinely large plot for this part of Sweden—and the grounds feel more like a forest garden than a managed lawn. Moss-covered boulders push up through the grass. Mature trees create a canopy thick enough to give real shade in August. There are rock formations scattered across the property that look like they've been there since the last ice age, because they have. It has a wildness to it that you simply can't manufacture, and it takes exactly zero effort to maintain because nature has already decided what this place looks like. Built in 1978, the main house has been kept in genuinely good shape. The kitchen was redone in 2020—proper appliances, good storage, clean lines—and connects openly to the living room in a way that makes the 58 square meters feel more generous than the number suggests. The Contura wood-burning stove anchors the room. Light a fire on a cool September evening and the whole space shifts into something much warmer and more intimate. Off the living room, an insulated conservatory pushes the usable season in both directions: you're sitting out there comfortably in April when it's still too cold to be outside, and again in Octo ... click here to read more

Step out onto the wide wooden deck on a Tuesday morning in July, coffee in hand, and the only sound you'll hear is the wind moving through the birch trees and, faintly, someone's rowboat bumping against the dock down at the harbor. That's the pace of life at Vinbärsvägen 26 in Kaggebo — and once you've felt it, a regular city weekend feels like a poor substitute. This two-bedroom holiday home sits on one of the most generous plots in the Kaggebo holiday area: 2,339 square meters of mixed garden and natural woodland, carved out between mature trees that have been growing here since long before the house was built in 1978. Most neighbors are working with a fraction of that space. Here, you have room to breathe — a proper lawn for the kids to tear across, a corner for a kitchen garden, shade in the afternoon when the sun has been doing its thing since five in the morning. The house itself is 62 square meters of well-kept, practical space. Two bedrooms, one bathroom, and an open-plan kitchen and living room that makes the most of every square foot. The large windows and glass door at the rear don't just bring in light — they frame the deck and the garden beyond like a living painting that changes all day as the angle of the sun shifts. The layout is honest and efficient. No wasted corridors, no awkward rooms. The kitchen feeds directly into the dining and sitting area, which feeds directly out onto the deck. It works. That deck deserves a proper mention. It runs the full length of the house, partly covered so you get options — eat lunch in the shade, move the chairs into the sun for the afternoon, stay out in the evening under the covered section when the temperature drops. In Sweden's brief, intense summer, a deck like t ... click here to read more

The first thing you notice on a summer morning at Smultronvägen 6 is the silence — the kind that only exists when forest meets water. Step outside with your coffee and the pines behind the garden are still, the air carrying a faint salt edge from the Baltic inlet just 500 meters down the track. This is Kaggebo, a small, quietly beloved holiday area in Valdemarsvik municipality, and this three-bedroom house with its own guest cottage sits right in the middle of what Swedes come here every July to find. The main house was built in 1978 and spans 77 square meters — not a sprawling estate, but intelligently planned for how people actually live on holiday. Three bedrooms handle a family comfortably, and one of them is large enough for a proper double bed rather than the cramped singles you find in older Swedish sommarstuga. The living room opens generously toward the kitchen, which matters when someone's making smörgås and wants to be part of the conversation rather than exiled to another room. Off the kitchen there's a flexible extension — some families use it as a dining area, others have turned it into a fourth sleeping space when cousins arrive unannounced. Both approaches work. The glass-enclosed conservatory might be the most-used room in the house. Jutting out from the living area, it catches afternoon light long after the main rooms go shady. On rainy August days — and there will be rainy August days in Östergötland — this is where everyone ends up with board games and leftover kanelbullar from the local bakery van that makes its rounds through Kaggebo on weekends. A storage room directly off the conservatory handles the practical side: laundry connections, outdoor gear, the general accumulation of a family that spe ... click here to read more

Stand on the covered terrace at Lupinvägen 28 on a July morning and you'll hear almost nothing — the faint knock of a wooden boat somewhere out on Mälaren, a woodpecker working at the birch line beyond the garden, maybe the distant cathedral bells rolling down from Strängnäs town. That's the particular quality of quiet you get on a dead-end road where the neighbours are mostly full-time residents who've lived here long enough to wave without looking up. It's not the silence of isolation. It's the silence of a place that knows exactly what it is. This is a proper year-round house — built in 1975, updated thoughtfully, and sitting on 1,833 square metres of flat, manageable land about 400 metres from the shore of Lake Mälaren, one of Sweden's largest and most-sailed inland waterways. At 63 square metres of living space across two bedrooms and a single bathroom, the footprint is honest and well-proportioned. Nothing wasted. Everything you need. Step inside and the living room earns its keep immediately. Large windows pull the garden greenery in visually, and on grey November afternoons the cast-iron fireplace does the kind of work that no underfloor heating system can fully replicate. There's a warmth here that's tactile — the creak of the floor, the smell of woodsmoke, the way the light shifts gold around three in the afternoon in autumn. The kitchen sits in an open, sociable position relative to the dining area, so whoever's making the meatballs or slicing the gravlax isn't exiled from the conversation. Practical, yes. But also genuinely pleasant to spend time in. Both bedrooms are calm and properly sized — not the afterthought rooms you sometimes find in older Swedish summer houses that were retrofitted for year-round ... click here to read more

On a still July morning in Nibbla, the air smells of cut grass and lake water. You step out onto the south-facing deck with your coffee, the sun already warming the wooden planks underfoot, and there's not a sound except birdsong and a distant rowing boat cutting across Lake Mälaren. This is what 450 meters from the water actually feels like — and it's right here on Violvägen 3. Ekerö is one of those places Stockholmers guard like a secret. A string of islands connected by bridge to the Swedish capital, roughly 20 kilometers west of the city center, it sits inside the vast archipelago of Lake Mälaren — Sweden's third largest lake and, by most measures, one of the most quietly beautiful. The landscape here rolls between open fields, birch forest, and water. Red wooden cottages dot the hillsides. In summer, the light lasts until nearly midnight and locals make full use of every hour. This particular cottage, built in 1955 and carefully updated over the past decade, sits on 424 square meters of garden in the Nibbla area — a pocket of Ekerö that still feels genuinely rural while sitting comfortably close to the mainland. The lot is generous for a property of this size, and whoever tended this garden took it seriously. Mature fruit trees shade the eastern end of the plot. Flower beds run along the fence lines. The lawn has multiple south-facing spots that catch sun from mid-morning through to the long Nordic evening. It's the kind of garden you actually use, not just admire. Inside, the 38 square meters are planned tightly and well. Large windows pull light into the open living and dining space, and the views through them — green garden, open sky — make the rooms feel considerably larger than the floor plan suggests. The n ... click here to read more

Stand on the wooden deck at dusk and watch the last light drain out of the sky behind Omberg's ridge. The ridge goes dark slowly, in stages, and below it the fields settle into a deep green quiet. That's the view from this 1909 cottage at Skedagatan 215 — not a painted backdrop, but a living landscape that changes with every season, every hour, every weather system rolling in off Lake Vättern. It's the kind of place that becomes genuinely hard to leave. Borghamn sits on the eastern shore of Lake Vättern in Östergötland, tucked between the ancient Alvastra plateau and Sweden's second-largest lake. This isn't a tourist-polished village. It's a real rural community with a grocery store, a well-regarded waterfront restaurant, and a harbor where locals actually keep their boats. The pace here is deliberate and unhurried in a way that feels intentional rather than left behind. The cottage itself was built in 1909 and sits on a fenced, generously planted plot that includes established fruit trees — apple and plum, heavy with fruit by late August — along with perennial borders that someone clearly spent years coaxing into maturity. The robotic lawnmower handles the grass without any involvement from you, which matters more than it sounds when you're here for a long weekend and don't want to spend it behind a push mower. Inside, the 68 square metres are arranged with the kind of logic that older Swedish homes often get right instinctively. The living room anchors the interior: a classic kakelugn tiled stove in the corner, an air-to-air heat pump for the seasons when the tiled stove feels like overkill, and enough natural light through the original-proportion windows to keep it from ever feeling tight. The dining area flows dir ... click here to read more

Picture this: it's a Saturday morning in late July, and you're standing at the kitchen window of a Finnish timber house in rural Skåne, watching mist lift slowly off the surface of Svenstorpssjön about 300 metres away. The smell of pine is everywhere — in the walls, in the air outside, in the sauna you fired up last night. Coffee's on. There's nowhere you have to be. That's what Klangens väg 3 actually feels like. And it's not a fantasy you have to work hard to justify — at this price point, it's one of the most accessible genuine escapes you'll find in southern Sweden. The house itself is a Honka, which matters. Honka is a Finnish manufacturer with a serious reputation for precision-cut log construction — the kind where the timber does the structural and thermal work simultaneously, meaning the walls breathe, the temperature stays remarkably even year-round, and the whole thing just gets better looking as it ages. This one was built in 1995 and has been kept in good condition. Walk inside and the first thing you notice is how warm it feels — not just physically, but in tone. Raw wood on every surface, a Finnish soapstone fireplace anchoring the main room, and a layout that's open but not cavernous. The kitchen and living area share the ground floor in a way that makes the 50 square metres feel much more generous than it sounds on paper. The soapstone fireplace is genuinely worth dwelling on. Soapstone holds heat for hours after the fire dies down — it's not decorative, it's functional in a deeply satisfying way. Light it on a crisp October evening and the stone radiates warmth well past midnight. That's the kind of detail that separates a proper Scandinavian timber house from an imitation. Upstairs, an open loft run ... click here to read more

Picture this: a slow Sunday morning, coffee in hand, south-facing deck soaking up the kind of Scandinavian summer light that seems to last forever. The fields behind the garden are dead quiet except for a distant tractor and the occasional gust off the Öresund. That's the rhythm of life at Ängagårdsvägen 33 in Beddingestrand — unhurried, grounded, and exactly what a second home in southern Sweden should feel like. Built in 1945 and thoughtfully extended over the decades, this 62-square-metre cottage carries the kind of character that only comes with time. It's not overworked or over-renovated. The bones are solid, the layout is smart, and the result is a home that feels genuinely lived-in — in the best possible sense. Two bedrooms, one bathroom, a kitchen with a proper dining nook, and a living room with large windows that pull in the surrounding greenery like a living painting. For a coastal holiday home in Skåne, this is a sweet spot: compact enough to lock up and leave without stress, spacious enough to host a small group of friends or spend a full summer season with family. The deck is where this property really delivers. South and west-facing, it stretches wide enough for a proper outdoor table, a few loungers, and the kind of lazy afternoon that stretches past dinner. In late June and July, the sun doesn't quit until well after 9pm here, and you'll feel every minute of it out on that wooden platform. The garden itself — 400 square metres — borders open farmland on one side and a small woodland grove on the other. Maintenance is genuinely low. No elaborate landscaping to manage from afar, just grass, air, and a natural screen that keeps things private. Beddingestrand sits along the southwestern tip of Skåne, the ... click here to read more

Front view of the summer cottage

Step off the porch on a September morning and the air smells of pine resin and wet moss. A pair of cranes are calling somewhere over Lake Nedingen—just 200 meters down the track. The coffee is on, the wood stove is ticking quietly in the corner, and the conservatory glass is steaming up at the edges. This is what a Tuesday feels like at Kantarellvägen 57. Not a weekend. A Tuesday. That's the thing about this property in Fornbo, a small lakeside community tucked inside Flens municipality about 120 kilometers southwest of Stockholm. It was built to be lived in across all four seasons, and it genuinely delivers on that promise. The 1990 house sits on a 1,890 square meter plot with mature birch and rowan trees framing a series of open lawns—the kind of garden that gives you options. Hammock between trees in July. Firewood stacked along the southern shed wall come October. Snowdrops pushing through frozen soil in late March, right when you start craving proof that winter actually ends. The 80 square meters inside are laid out with more intelligence than you'd expect from the footprint. The living room anchors everything, centered around a wood-burning stove that throws real heat—not the decorative kind. On evenings in November, when the lake freezes at the edges and the light drops at three in the afternoon, that stove earns its place. The dining area seats six comfortably, which matters when you're hosting the extended family for a Swedish midsommar dinner that spills from afternoon into midnight. The kitchen is practical and well-equipped, with enough counter space to actually cook rather than just reheat. The glazed conservatory—what Swedes call an uterum—might be the room that sells this house. It runs along the garden ... click here to read more

Front view of the house and garden

You wake up to the sound of birdsong drifting through the window, the smell of pine and lake water on the morning air. Through the kitchen glass, the garden stretches out in a wash of green — old fruit trees, a flat lawn still wet with dew, and somewhere beyond the tree line, Bodatorpsträsket glinting in the early light. This is a Tuesday in July at Bodatorpsvägen 14. And it's yours. This three-bedroom summer house in Djurhamn, on the island of Djurö in Värmdö municipality, sits on a generous 2,793 square metre plot in the Bodatorp area — one of the most sought-after pockets of the Stockholm archipelago for Swedish families and international buyers alike. The property is in good condition, ready to use from day one, and carries that rare quality of feeling genuinely lived-in rather than staged. Every corner has a story: the covered terrace where evenings tend to stretch long, the wood-burning stove that makes October here not just bearable but actually cosy, the great room that somehow fits everyone when the whole family descends in August. The main house is 55 square metres of practical, warm living space — compact enough to run easily, large enough for real comfort. There's a kitchen with a proper dining area where long lunches happen naturally, a bedroom tucked away for quiet, a separate toilet with an incineration toilet, and a shower room with a shower cabin. The wood stove in the great room is not decorative; it's the heart of the space, doing real work on those shoulder-season weekends when midsummer has passed but nobody wants to stop coming up. The covered terrace off the main house is where the day tends to begin and end — coffee in the morning light, wine as the sun drops behind the spruce trees. But the ma ... click here to read more

Main house and garden

On a still July morning, the smell of salt air drifts through the kitchen window before you've even made coffee. The Swedish west coast does that — pulls you outside before you're ready. From Gustav Bäcks väg, it's a ten-minute walk down to Eriksbergs beach, where the water is clear enough to see your feet and the only sound is the occasional creak of a sailboat. This is what you bought it for. Built in 2023, this compact year-round house in Bokenäs sits on 631 square metres of manageable garden, a short drive from the Bohuslän coastline that artists and writers have been quietly obsessing over for a century. At 45 square metres, it's not trying to be something it isn't — it's a proper escape, designed to be easy. One bedroom, one bathroom, an open-plan living and kitchen area that catches the afternoon light, and a loft upstairs that fits a double bed with room to spare. The layout means two people can genuinely live here without stepping on each other, and a third or fourth can sleep comfortably when you want company. The patio deserves a mention early, because you'll spend a lot of your time there. Long Swedish summer evenings — and they are genuinely long, light until eleven or later — make outdoor dining less of a nice-to-have and more of a daily ritual. The garden itself is low on demands. Mow it, water the odd plant, done. If you've had a holiday home in France or Italy and spent half the visit managing the grounds, you'll appreciate this. Bokenäs is one of those places that regulars are slightly reluctant to talk about too loudly. The peninsula sits between the Gullmarn fjord to the north and the open coastline further south, and the result is a patchwork of inlets, rocky outcrops, sea pines, and small boat ha ... click here to read more

Front view of the house and garden

On a quiet morning in early June, you step outside your back door at Björnmossevägen 60 with a coffee in hand. The garden stretches out ahead of you — a full 2,560 square meters of it — and somewhere beyond the treeline, maybe 300 meters off, you can hear the faint splash of a swimmer at one of the nearby lakes. The air smells of pine resin and wet grass. Stockholm feels like a world away, even though it's only about 35 kilometers north. That's Brottby. That's what draws people here. Tucked into the Garns-Ekskogen forest landscape within Vallentuna municipality, this two-bedroom house sits on a generous private plot that gives you something increasingly rare around the Swedish capital: genuine space, genuine quiet, and genuine proximity to nature that isn't manicured or managed into blandness. Built in 2018, the house covers 82 square meters with a clean, light-filled interior that needs nothing done to it. Move in, hang your coat, and start living. The layout makes sense for the way people actually use a second home or holiday base. The main living area runs open between the lounge and dining space, with oversized windows pulling in the kind of northern light that makes everything look slightly better than it is. The kitchen is modern and properly equipped — not the hollow showroom kind, but the kind where you can actually cook a Sunday elk stew after a long autumn hike. Two bedrooms give you flexibility: one for sleeping, one for a bunk room for kids, or a proper home office if you're splitting time between Stockholm work and forest-life weekends. The bathroom is contemporary, finished well, and does exactly what it needs to. Outside is where this property earns its price tag. The 2,560-square-meter plot is the rea ... click here to read more

Exterior view of the house and garden

On a quiet July morning at Gnejsvägen 9, you step out onto the enclosed balcony with a mug of coffee and the garden is already alive — bees working the raspberry canes, light cutting through the birch canopy, a woodpecker hammering somewhere behind the guest house. This is the version of Sweden that Swedes themselves keep to themselves. Mariefred is one of those small towns that gets everything right without trying too hard. Cobblestone streets, a waterfront that hasn't been over-developed, and the unmistakable silhouette of Gripsholm Castle rising above Lake Mälaren — one of the oldest Renaissance fortresses in Scandinavia and the unlikely backdrop to your afternoon walk. The town sits about 65 kilometres west of Stockholm, just over an hour by car, or you can take the steamboat Mariefred from Klara Mälarstrand in the capital — a genuinely beautiful two-and-a-half-hour crossing across the lake that makes every arrival feel like an event rather than a commute. The property itself carries the name 'Skogsgläntan' — Forest Glade — which tells you exactly what the current owners experienced here over the years. The plot is flat, deeply private, and ringed with mature trees that do the work of any fence. From the street you'd barely know the house was there. Inside, the layout makes immediate sense: three generous bedrooms, a living room with enough space to actually live in rather than just admire, a period-style kitchen that still has its original character intact, and a renovated bathroom that handles the modern comforts without erasing the soul of the place. The carport is new. The heating system has been updated. These are the upgrades that matter — not cosmetic, but structural and practical, the kind that mean you mov ... click here to read more

Exterior view of the house and garden

Stand at the kitchen window on a Tuesday morning in July, coffee in hand, and the only sounds reaching you are birdsong and the distant knock of a wooden hull against a dock. That's Matrosvägen 8. It sits at the very end of a quiet cul-de-sac, three kilometres south of Grisslehamn village, on a natural plot that feels far wilder and more private than 2,727 square metres should feel. This is a proper Swedish coastal property — year-round insulated, intelligently laid out, and set up for a lifestyle that moves between the pool, the sea, and the archipelago in easy, unhurried steps. The main house runs to 80 square metres, and it earns every one of them. The living room centres on a wood-burning stove that pulls the whole room together — on October evenings when the birch trees outside have gone amber and the temperature drops fast, this becomes the most important piece of furniture in the house. Large windows look out directly onto the garden, and in spring, when the wild cherries flower along the boundary, the view through that glass is genuinely something to stop and look at. The kitchen is generous enough to seat people around a table while something is cooking — a proper sociable kitchen, not a galley you have to take turns standing in. The bedroom is calm and well-proportioned, and the tiled bathroom with shower and WC is clean, modern, and functional. Nothing overcomplicated. The whole house is designed to be easy.

Picture a Tuesday morning in late July. You've left the house on Gata 29 with a thermos of coffee, walked the five minutes down to Grönemad harbor, and you're untying your boat before most of the village has woken up. The Bohuslän archipelago stretches out in front of you — smooth granite skerries, dark green islands, the kind of light that northern Sweden does in summer that you simply cannot photograph well enough to explain to people who haven't seen it. That's the morning this property makes possible. Grebbestad sits on the western coast of Sweden, tucked into the Tanums municipality on the Bohuslän coast about 130 kilometers north of Gothenburg. It's one of those small Swedish coastal towns — population hovering around 1,500 — that somehow punches well above its weight in the summer. The harbor fills with sailboats from Norway and Denmark. The seafood shacks along the promenade sell some of the freshest oysters and langoustines you'll find anywhere in Scandinavia; the Grebbestad oyster in particular has a mild, mineral flavor that local restaurants have been building menus around for decades. During the Grebbestad Oyster Festival in October, the whole town turns into something between a food market and a street party, and it draws visitors from across Sweden and Norway every year. This is a house that has been sitting quietly on its 1,301-square-meter plot since 1964, and it still has the original bones of that era — the kitchen with its period detailing, the compact layout that was designed for real living rather than Instagram staging, the deep basement running the full length of the ground floor. It's been inspected by Fukt & Byggkonsult and the sale includes insurance against hidden defects, so you're not walk ... click here to read more
