Early morning in Grovstanäs, and the light does something extraordinary. It comes off the water — just 150 meters down the path — and hits the upper floor of the house at an angle that fills the L-shaped living room with the kind of gold you can't manufacture with interior design. By the time the coffee is ready, you're sitting in a bay window with a view of the garden, listening to nothing in particular. That's the rhythm this place sets from day one. Edsviksvägen 32 sits quietly at the end of a cul-de-sac on the Grovstanäs peninsula, one of the lesser-known gems tucked into the Stockholm archipelago north of the city. It's not a secret exactly — locals know it well — but it hasn't been overrun the way some coastal spots closer to Stockholm have. The community here has its own boat harbors, a boules court, a football field, and walking trails that cut through the pine and birch toward the rocky shoreline. It has the feel of a place people have protected on purpose. The main house covers 88 square meters across the entrance level, with an additional 45 square meters of finished basement below — 133 square meters total. The upper floor layout is open and well-proportioned: that generous living room, a proper kitchen with enough counter space to actually cook in, a dining area in the bay window that catches afternoon sun, a large bedroom, and a shower room. It's a floor plan that works for two people or easily absorbs a family for a summer. Nothing about it feels cramped or compromised. Downstairs, the basement opens up the possibilities considerably. There's a large family room down here that, with a partition, becomes two additional sleeping areas — useful if you're hosting more guests than the guest house can handle. ... click here to read more

Early on a July morning, before the rest of Sjömansvägen stirs, you can walk the hundred meters to Lake Jämten in bare feet on warm tarmac, towel over your shoulder, and have the water entirely to yourself. That's the kind of morning this place is built for. No queues, no noise, just pines and still water and the occasional heron lifting off the far bank. Sjömansvägen 5 sits in the Loviselund fritidsområde — a well-established recreational community tucked into Södermanland's lake district, about 120 kilometers southwest of Stockholm and a comfortable six kilometers from the market town of Flen. The plot is big. Really big. At 2,595 square meters, it feels more like a small estate than a holiday lot, with mature forest pressing right up to the boundary on one side and a gentle sense of openness on the other. In a region where well-placed leisure properties are quietly becoming harder to find, that kind of land footprint matters. The main house was built in 1984 and spreads across 65 square meters on a single level. Single-storey living here isn't a compromise — it's a genuine quality-of-life feature. No stairs to navigate when you're carrying groceries from Flen's ICA Supermarket, no awkward levels when grandparents visit, no hunting for light switches in the dark after a late evening on the west terrace. The layout is direct: hallway with a generous walk-in closet that doubles as a sleeping alcove for a third guest, a proper bedroom, a light-filled living room, and a functional kitchen with the essentials already in place — fridge-freezer, stove, cooktop, water heater. The living room opens directly onto a covered terrace facing east, and there's something quietly addictive about drinking your first coffee out there ... click here to read more

Step out the front door at seven in the morning and the only sound is birdsong. The dew is still sitting on the grass, the lake is just visible through the pines, and the coffee you left on the kitchen counter is already pulling you back inside. That's the rhythm of life at Dalvägen 8, and once you've felt it, a weekend trip to Sala will never feel like enough. This is a one-bedroom house on a 2,738-square-metre plot in the Ljömsebo area, roughly 15 kilometres outside Sala in central Sweden. It's priced at 104,500 EUR — the kind of number that makes people do a double-take, and rightly so. Properties like this, with a separate guest cottage, multiple outbuildings, and direct proximity to a lake with a proper swimming dock, don't surface often. The area has quietly shifted from a purely seasonal destination to a place where people actually live year-round, and that transition has made the local community feel grounded and real rather than the ghost-town-in-November type. The main house was built in 1974 and carries that particular solidity you find in Swedish timber construction from that era — a wooden facade, metal roof, walls that have been professionally re-insulated as recently as 2023 and 2024. Inside, the layout is compact but thought through: two rooms plus a kitchen, one bedroom, and a living area that opens directly onto a southwest-facing terrace. Southwest matters here. Swedish summers are long on light but short on calendar, so catching the afternoon and evening sun from late April through September is not a small thing. The terrace faces the right way to make that happen every single day. Heating is handled three ways: an air heat pump as the workhorse, electric radiators as backup, and a fireplace for th ... click here to read more

Step out onto the back deck on a Saturday morning in July and you'll understand immediately. The smell of pine warming in the sun, the faint splash of someone diving off the rocks at Säbyviken a few minutes' walk down the trail, and nothing — genuinely nothing — competing for your attention. Platåslingan 25 on Ingarö sits at that rare intersection of true Swedish archipelago wilderness and real, year-round livability. It's not a summer cottage you winterize and abandon in October. People actually live here, all year, and you can feel it. The house itself was built in 1972, and it has that honest, no-fuss Scandinavian practicality that holds up remarkably well. At 47 square meters, it doesn't try to be more than it is — compact, well-planned, and genuinely comfortable. The open fireplace in the living room is the anchor of the whole place. Come February, when frost edges the birch trees outside and the archipelago goes quiet and still, that fireplace stops being a feature and starts being the point. You light it after a ski track session out on the frozen inlets, pour something warm, and the room closes around you in the best possible way. Large windows pull in more light than you'd expect for a structure this size. The kitchen sits open to the living area — practical for actual cooking, not just aesthetic — and the two bedrooms are calm, private, and sensibly proportioned. One bathroom with shower. Everything where it should be, nothing extraneous. What makes this property genuinely unusual for its price point is the land and the secondary structure. The plot runs to 2,914 square meters, much of it characterful bedrock and mature Swedish forest — the kind of granite-and-pine combination that defines the Värmdö coastli ... click here to read more

Step outside on a July morning and the plum tree by the terrace is already warm from the sun. The apples are weeks away from being ready. Somewhere across the green, a couple of kids are kicking a ball around the football pitch that borders the property. You've got coffee brewing inside. This is Fållökna — and it feels a long way from any city, even though Stockholm is under two hours away. This single-storey holiday home on Uvbergsvägen sits on a plot just over 2,000 square metres on the northern shore of Lake Nedingen, right in the geographical centre of Sörmland. That combination — water close by, forests behind, a working community around you — is exactly why Swedish families have been buying second homes in this part of Flens kommun for generations. Supply here is genuinely limited. Properties on the Nedingen shore don't come up often. The house itself covers 55 square metres sensibly. Two bedrooms with wooden floors, a living room anchored by an open fireplace with an insert, and a kitchen with a ceramic cooktop and combined fridge-freezer. Nothing flashy, nothing broken. The bathroom has wall cladding, a shower, and connects to the municipal water and sewage system — no well to maintain, no septic surprises. Fibre internet is already installed, which matters more than people expect when they're working remotely for a week or letting the kids stream something on a rainy afternoon. The living room earns its keep. Large windows pull in the garden light, and when you light the fire on a cool September evening after a day walking the Lagnö nature reserve trails, the wooden floor glows and the room genuinely earns the word cosy without needing any help from interior design. The west-facing covered terrace off the mai ... click here to read more

The first thing you notice on a July morning at Havsörnsstigen 28 is the light. It comes in low and golden through the trees on the east side of the plot before eight o'clock, falls across the wooden decking, and turns the whole garden into something worth waking up early for. You pour coffee. The sea is a three-minute walk down the lane. You can smell it before you see it. This is Södra Rörvik — a quiet residential pocket on the island of Väddö, tucked into the Roslagen archipelago about 100 kilometres north of Stockholm. People who know this stretch of the Swedish coast tend to keep it to themselves. The tourist crowds that flood Norrtälje town in summer somehow never quite reach here with the same intensity. The roads stay calm. The swimming cove stays clean. The neighbours wave but don't intrude. It has the particular Swedish quality of feeling genuinely unhurried in a way that coastal spots twice the price rarely manage. The house itself was built in 1964 — a classic Swedish sommarstuga in character, but extended and maintained into something that functions comfortably as a year-round home. At 69 square metres across four rooms, it's compact without feeling cramped. The living room carries the space confidently, with large windows that frame the garden rather than just letting light in — there's a difference, and here it matters. A wood-burning stove sits in the corner, and by late September when the evenings sharpen and the birch leaves go gold, it earns its place. The kitchen connects directly to the living space in a way that makes cooking feel social rather than isolated. Nothing fancy, but everything you actually need when you're spending summers here with people you like. Three bedrooms sleep the family com ... click here to read more

Early morning in Tived, the mist sits low over the pines and the only sound is birdsong and the faint lap of water from Lake Unden, just a four-minute walk down the road. You pull on a jacket, step off the wooden porch, and that's your commute. That's the life this place offers. Kungsbacken 4 is a 1965 Swedish fritidshus — a proper country cottage — set on a generous 1,831-square-metre plot in one of central Sweden's most quietly compelling corners. Two bedrooms, one bathroom, 51 square metres of warm, practical living space, and enough garden to lose yourself in for a whole afternoon. The price is 99,500 EUR. For what you get — a turn-key holiday home on the edge of a national park, fully furnished, beside a lake — that's a serious value proposition. The house itself is in good condition, well-maintained by the current owners and honest about what it is: a proper Swedish country retreat, not a showroom. The interior is bright, with windows that pull the treeline right into the living room. Large mature trees ring the garden, giving the kind of natural privacy that newer developments spend years trying to fake with fences and hedges. The kitchen is functional and ready to use from day one, and because the sale includes all furniture, there's no logistics headache — you arrive, you unpack a bag, you start living. Lake Unden is 450 metres from the front door. One of the cleanest lakes in Västra Götaland, Unden is fed by cold, clear springs and surrounded almost entirely by forest. In summer, the swimming is exceptional — families from the nearest towns drive an hour to reach what you'll have on your doorstep. Pike and perch fishing are taken seriously here; the local tradition is to head out just after sunrise, before t ... click here to read more

On a still Saturday morning at Sågbacken 20, you pour coffee in a compact kitchen, crack open the terrace door, and the air that comes in smells like pine resin and lake water. That's the whole point of this place. No traffic noise, no neighbour's TV through the wall — just the occasional woodpecker working away somewhere in the trees behind the garden. It's forty square metres of main house, a separate guest cottage, and 749 square metres of land sitting roughly 300 metres from the edge of Lake Mälaren. Simple on paper. Quietly extraordinary in practice. Bro is one of those Swedish addresses that locals tend to keep to themselves. Sitting in Upplands-Bro municipality, about 40 kilometres northwest of Stockholm, the area hugs the northeastern shore of Lake Mälaren — Sweden's third-largest lake and arguably its most atmospheric, edged with medieval church ruins, small islands, and sailing routes that unfurl for hundreds of kilometres. The E18 motorway puts you at Kungsängen station in under ten minutes, and from there the commuter train runs directly into Stockholm's central station in roughly 35 minutes. You can be eating lunch at Östermalm's food hall and back on the terrace in time for sunset. The house itself was built in 1971 and sits in solid, well-maintained condition. At 40 square metres, the layout is efficient without feeling tight — something Swedish summer house design tends to get right. The bedroom is fitted with built-in wardrobes, keeping clutter off the floor. The living room doubles as a flexible second sleeping space if you need it, with room for a daybed alongside a proper dining setup, and a certified open fireplace anchors the room. On the first cool September evening of the year, when the nights s ... click here to read more

Step outside on a July morning and the first thing you notice is the light. Out here on Yxlan, it hits differently — bouncing off Yxlömaren lake just 350 metres down the track, filtering through the old apple trees at the garden edge, warming the west-facing terrace before most of Stockholm has had its first coffee. That terrace, with its outdoor spa already in place, is where you'll spend a disproportionate amount of your time here. Trust that. Yxlan sits in the northern Stockholm archipelago, part of Norrtälje kommun, and it carries that particular quality of Swedish island life that people from the city spend years trying to find. Not the polished resort version. The real kind — where a country store in Köpmanholm sells pickled herring and the ferry to the mainland runs on a timetable that politely refuses to rush you. The island is connected by road and by Waxholmsbolaget ferry from Yxlövik, a few kilometres from Österviksvägen, plus Bus 632 runs several times daily between the island and the mainland. Practical, quiet, close enough to everything, far enough from the noise. The house at Österviksvägen 44 was built in 1955 and has been brought up to year-round standard — proper insulation, heating systems that handle a Swedish February without complaint. That matters more than people expect when they first start thinking about archipelago property. A summer cabin is one thing. A place you can escape to in November, light a fire, and watch the frost settle on the meadow outside — that's a different category entirely, and this property sits firmly in it. Inside, the layout is compact but genuinely usable. Three rooms plus kitchen spread across 66 square metres: a kitchen with a dedicated dining nook that handles four ... click here to read more

Late afternoon on a July Saturday, the southwest sun pours through the glass-enclosed patio and turns the pine floorboards a deep amber. You've just come back from Björknäs's little beach — kids still sandy, everyone hungry — and the kitchen smells of whatever went into the cast-iron pan twenty minutes ago. That's the rhythm this house runs on. Easy, unhurried, genuinely Swedish. Björknäs sits inside Roslagen, the long, ragged stretch of coastline northeast of Stockholm that locals have been quietly escaping to for generations. It's not the flashy archipelago of postcards — it's better. Unpretentious timber cottages tucked between birch stands, narrow lanes that end at sheltered coves, the smell of pine resin on a warm afternoon. The community here is tight enough to feel like a village but relaxed enough that nobody bothers you. The kind of place where your neighbours wave from their garden and then leave you alone. The house itself was built in 1972 and sits on a 1,765 square metre plot — a genuinely generous footprint for this part of Roslagen. There's a real sense of privacy here. The garden mixes mown lawn with wilder natural patches that attract butterflies and the occasional hedgehog, and sunlight tracks across it for most of the day given the open southwest aspect. In June, when the Swedish light goes on until 10pm, evenings out here take on a quality that's hard to describe to anyone who hasn't sat in Scandinavian summer dusk with a cold drink and nowhere to be. Inside, 48 square metres sounds compact on paper. In practice, the layout uses every centimetre thoughtfully. The kitchen was completely gutted and rebuilt in 2019 — new cabinets, new surfaces, proper appliances — and it connects directly to that glas ... click here to read more

The coffee tastes better on this terrace. Something about the birch trees filtering the early morning light, the faint smell of salt air drifting up from Herräng's rocky shore just around the corner, the silence that isn't really silence at all — it's wood pigeons, rustling leaves, the occasional distant outboard motor. You're 350 meters from the sea. It feels like another world entirely. Råvikskroken 1 sits on a generous 2,156-square-meter plot in one of the most quietly coveted pockets of the Stockholm Archipelago. Herräng is not one of those over-photographed Swedish villages that ends up on every travel blog. It's known among those who know — jazz musicians, archipelago regulars, Stockholm families who discovered it decades ago and have been coming back every June since. The Herräng Dance Camp, one of the world's most famous swing jazz festivals, has called this village home for over 40 years. In summer, the sound of live brass carries on the wind and the village takes on a warm, international energy before settling back into its natural quiet. If you want the untouched archipelago without the weekend crowds of Vaxholm or Grisslehamn, Herräng is exactly where you end up. The house itself was built in 1978 and has been kept in good condition — this isn't a renovation project, it's a property you can start enjoying immediately. At 78 square meters across two bedrooms and one bathroom, the layout is compact but genuinely livable, the kind of floor plan that feels right rather than just adequate. The living and dining area opens up around a fireplace that earns its keep every single autumn weekend, when the evenings drop fast and the archipelago turns copper and rust. Large windows pull in the garden and the surroundin ... click here to read more

The first thing you notice on a summer evening at Hysängsvägen 36 is the light. It comes low and golden off the Furusundsleden strait, cuts through the pine trees, and lands across the west-facing deck in a way that makes you want to pour something cold and simply sit. That's the rhythm of life on Yxlan — unhurried, quiet in the best possible sense, and astonishingly close to Stockholm. Yxlan is one of the outermost accessible islands in the Norrtälje archipelago, connected to the mainland by a free car ferry that runs year-round. It's not the kind of place that ends up on tourist lists. Swedes who know the archipelago well tend to keep it to themselves. The island sits where the inner skerries give way to open Baltic water, and on clear mornings you can smell the sea before you even step outside. The property on Hysängsvägen sits in the Hysängen area, a pocket of the island where the plots are generous and the neighbors are close enough to wave to but far enough that you can't hear their conversations. The main house is 72 square meters — not large, but used well. The open-plan living room and kitchen share a single bright space with big windows on the western side, which means afternoon light fills the room naturally without any effort on your part. Direct from the living room, a large wooden deck stretches out to meet the garden. The deck is where you'll spend most of your time in June, July, and August — eating, reading, watching the light change. It faces west, which in the Swedish archipelago summer means you're outside until ten at night without a jacket. Two bedrooms in the main house keep things practical. They're quiet rooms, good for sleeping deeply after a day on the water or a long hike through the island ... click here to read more

Picture this: it's a Saturday morning in late June, and the smell of ripe cherries drifts in through the kitchen window at Tredje Gatan 5. The garden is already warm. You step outside in bare feet, pick a handful of fruit straight off the tree, and walk down toward Lake Båven with a thermos of coffee before most of the village has stirred. This is what owning a second home in Sparreholm actually feels like—unhurried, real, rooted in the Swedish countryside in a way that no city apartment can replicate. The house itself sits on Tredje Gatan, a quiet residential street in the heart of this small Södermanland community, about 100 kilometres southwest of Stockholm. It's a single-storey home with a basement, 71 square metres of living space, and a 760-square-metre plot that wraps around it with the kind of gentle, lived-in character that takes years to cultivate. Apple, cherry, plum, and pear trees dot the garden—not as ornamental decoration, but as working trees that produce real fruit through the summer and into autumn. Summer water supply runs from May through October for irrigation, so keeping the garden going doesn't demand heroic effort. Recent years have seen solid investment in the fabric of the building. A new air-to-water heat pump was installed, the electrical system was rewired, and interior surfaces were freshly painted and updated. These aren't cosmetic upgrades—they're the kind of infrastructure work that makes a home genuinely comfortable through a Swedish winter and energy-efficient year-round. The indoor climate is stable. You're not walking into a project; you're walking into somewhere that works. The layout is simple and honest. The main floor carries the living room, kitchen, dining area, two bedrooms, ... click here to read more

On a still July morning, you pull on your sandals and walk 250 meters down a quiet gravel path through the birch trees. The lake is glassy. You're the first one in. This is Yxtasjön, and it's essentially your front yard. That's the kind of daily rhythm Hägerbovägen 6 makes possible. A solid, well-kept 1965 house on a 3,680 square meter plot in Yxtaholm, one of the more quietly coveted pockets of Flen municipality in Södermanland — about 120 kilometers southwest of Stockholm along the E20. Three bedrooms, 104 square meters of living space, a wood-burning stove crackling in the corner come October, and more outdoor room than most people know what to do with. Swedes have been quietly holding onto places like this for generations. And they're not wrong to. The house itself is genuinely move-in ready. The interior has been freshly painted throughout — white walls that bounce light around the rooms rather than absorbing it. Large windows face the greenery, and on a summer afternoon the effect is something close to living inside a forest. The main living room is generous, anchored by a newer air-source heat pump that handles both heating and cooling efficiently across all four seasons, and the wood stove supplements it beautifully when January temperatures drop into the minus digits and you want actual warmth, not just circulated air. The kitchen has enough counter space to be functional, modern appliances, and real storage — not the kind of Swedish summer cottage kitchen where you're fighting over drawer space every morning. Three bedrooms sleep family and guests comfortably, and the bathroom covers everything you'd need for extended stays. Out back, the 3,680 square meter plot is the real conversation. Mature trees — mostl ... click here to read more

The first thing you notice on a summer morning at Skyttsveden 39A is the light. It comes in low through the big windows, catches the surface of Lake Väsman about 150 meters down the slope, and turns the whole room the color of warm honey. By eight o'clock you're already pulling on your shoes for the walk to the water. That's just life here — quiet, unhurried, and genuinely good. Sunnansjö sits in Dalarna, the province that Swedes themselves treat as the country's emotional heartland. Midsommar is taken seriously here. Maypoles go up in the meadows, fiddle music drifts across the water, and the smell of wild strawberries and woodsmoke is so thick you could bottle it. This isn't a region performing its identity for tourists — it's just how things are. Owning a holiday home in this part of Sweden means buying into a way of life that most people only read about. The house itself was built in 1983, single-storey and solid, and it's been looked after with obvious care. Freshly renovated, it has solid wooden floors throughout, pale walls that stay cool even in July heat, and a layout that makes the most of every one of its 54 square metres. Two bedrooms sit on the entrance level — one easily doubles as a study or reading room — and above the main living space there's a sleeping loft that kids immediately claim as their own. The loft isn't counted in the official floor area, which means the actual usable space feels noticeably larger than the figures suggest. The living room is the heart of things. The windows face the lake and on grey November afternoons, when the birch trees have dropped their leaves and frost is forming on the grass, the approved fireplace in the corner earns its keep completely. There's a new air-to-air h ... click here to read more

The first thing you notice on a Friday evening arrival is the silence. Not the uncomfortable kind—the kind that has depth to it, layered with the creak of pine, the distant pull of the Lagan river, and maybe a woodpecker going at a birch somewhere in the 5,000-square-meter plot that's entirely yours. You cut the engine, step onto the gravel, and already the week behind you starts to dissolve. Skogsstugan—"the forest cottage"—at Putsered 64 outside Knäred is the kind of second home that Swedes have quietly kept to themselves for generations. A proper year-round house, not a draughty summer shack. Built in 1974 and significantly extended in 1996, the 77-square-meter main home has been maintained with real care: quality Traryd insulated windows, a bathroom that was fully renovated in 2011, a heat pump installed for modern efficiency, and a Vissenbjerg wood-burning stove that makes winter weekends here genuinely cozy rather than just survivable. The wooden floors, paneled ceilings with wainscoting, and wallpapered walls give the interior a Scandinavian warmth that you don't get from places renovated to look like an IKEA showroom. This is a home with character that's earned rather than staged. The open-plan living room, dining area, and kitchen form the social heart of the house. Large panoramic windows and double patio doors—new ones, high quality—open directly onto a stone-paved terrace laid in Öland limestone. On summer mornings, that terrace catches the light early. The covered section, roughly 12 square meters, has an outdoor kitchen, which means you're frying fish straight from the Lagan regardless of what the weather's doing overhead. The Kvik kitchen inside, fitted during the 1996 extension, comes with wooden counte ... click here to read more

Stand at the kitchen window on a October morning and watch the mist lift off the birch trees at the edge of your nearly nine-thousand square metre lot. The wood stove in the corner is already ticking with warmth. The coffee is on. Beyond the treeline, Lake Summeln sits about a three-minute walk away, still and grey-green, waiting. This is the particular kind of quiet that people from Stockholm or Amsterdam or Hamburg spend years trying to find—and here it already comes with the house. Rud Byggningen is a 1909 farmstead-style home on the outskirts of Säffle in Värmland, Sweden's great inland lake county. The building has the solid, unhurried bones of Swedish rural construction from that era: thick walls, steep roof, a floor plan that was designed around actual living rather than architectural showmanship. Over the decades it's been updated carefully rather than gutted—the 2022 bathroom renovation brought in clean, contemporary fittings without turning the place into something soulless, and a newer air-source heat pump keeps running costs sensible year-round. The original wood-burning stove in the hallway, though? That stays. There's no good reason to remove the one thing that makes January feel like a pleasure rather than an endurance test. The house runs to 108 square metres of main living space across four rooms plus kitchen, with an additional 48 square metres of secondary space—utility rooms, storage, the kind of square footage that quietly absorbs the overflow of family life. Three bedrooms sit at the upper level, each genuinely private, each with the countryside view that you stopped noticing after a while when you first moved in but that visitors always comment on immediately. The attic is unfinished, which sound ... click here to read more

Picture this: a midsummer Saturday, and you're sitting on a wide southwest-facing wooden deck with a cup of coffee that's gone slightly cold because you kept getting distracted by the light. It does something particular here in Strömstad — bounces off the open landscape behind the house, turns everything amber by late afternoon, and just refuses to let you go inside. That's the daily reality of owning this 1930s house at Stora Ytten Karlslund, and it's the kind of thing you can't fully appreciate until you've experienced it yourself. Built in the 1930s and kept in genuinely good condition, this is a two-bedroom wooden house with 90 square meters of living space sitting on a 975-square-meter plot. Not a renovation project. Not a compromise. A proper Swedish house with original wooden floors, period architectural details, and the kind of proportions that newer builds just don't replicate — rooms that feel considered rather than squeezed. The large windows weren't put there for the listing photos. They're there because someone who built this place understood that Scandinavian light is precious, and you catch every last beam of it when you can. The layout is practical without being rigid. Two bedrooms handle the sleeping comfortably, and the third room flexes well — home office one weekend, guest room the next, quiet reading corner the one after that. The kitchen opens directly onto the garden deck, which matters more than you'd think. Breakfast outside in August, herb pots on the railing, someone grilling something that smells good from next door — that's the rhythm of this place in summer. The bathroom has been updated with modern fixtures while the rest of the house keeps its older bones intact, which is exactly the bal ... click here to read more
