Stand on the small porch at Messlingen Backen 506 on a July morning and what you get is this: the glassy surface of Lake Messlingen reflecting the ridgeline back at itself, the smell of birch sap and wet meadow grass, the distant call of a loon somewhere upstream. Nothing else. No traffic, no sirens. Just the particular silence that only the Swedish mountains produce, the kind that actually has texture to it. This two-bedroom country cabin sits on 703 square meters of land in Messlingen, a quiet hamlet within Härjedalens kommun in the highlands of Jämtland County, roughly 15 kilometres from the Funäsfjällen ski area. At 53 square metres, it's not a big house. But it doesn't need to be. The whole point here is that your living room extends several thousand metres in every direction. The cabin is in good overall condition, with a practical layout that flows from the entrance hallway through to the kitchen and into the main living area. Large windows frame the lake and the mountains behind it — on clear days in late autumn, when the birch trees have dropped their leaves, you can see clear across to the Norwegian fells on the horizon. The kitchen has enough counter space for real cooking, not just weekend survival meals, and the dining area fits comfortably around a table where four people can sit without elbowing each other. Two small bedrooms provide private space for rest, and the bathroom is functional and well-placed. One practical matter worth knowing upfront: the property currently lacks potable water and will require a new well to be drilled. This is a straightforward process in the area and common with older Swedish mountain properties — several local contractors in Sveg and Funäsdalen handle this routinely.

You wake up to absolute quiet. Not the muffled quiet of a city apartment with earplugs in — real quiet, the kind where you can hear a woodpecker working a pine tree fifty meters away and the faint lap of water at the bottom of the plot. That's a morning at Öjarn 610 in Strömsund, Jämtland. The coffee is on the wood-burning stove, the kitchen window is cracked open, and the only thing on your agenda is deciding whether to take the boat out first or walk the forest trail first. This is a two-bedroom Swedish country home sitting on two separate plots — a combined 4,246 square meters of land — with an official easement granting a boat mooring and boathouse on the second plot. That last detail matters more than it might sound. Boat mooring rights in this part of Sweden are genuinely hard to come by, and having it deeded as an easement means it's yours legally, year after year, not a handshake arrangement with a neighbor. The house itself is 86 square meters across two floors. Downstairs you have the kitchen, living room, one bedroom, and the bathroom. The kitchen is a proper working space — stove, refrigerator, freezer, and room enough for a table where six people can eat without anyone getting elbow-to-elbow. The bathroom includes a shower, a Separett composting toilet (the kind of low-maintenance, eco-conscious system that makes complete sense in a nature-forward property like this), a washbasin, and both a washing machine and tumble dryer. Practical things that matter when you're spending more than a weekend here. The wood-burning stove in the living area anchors the whole ground floor. Evenings in October, when the temperature outside drops and the smell of birch smoke fills the room, it becomes the center of the house ... click here to read more

Stand at the edge of the garden on a September morning and you'll hear nothing but the creek. Not silence exactly — the water moves over the stones with a low, unhurried murmur, and somewhere further back in the trees a woodpecker is at work. This is Turabygget 132. A 1910 country home on a 3,625-square-meter plot in rural Skåne, Sweden, and the kind of place that people drive past, slow down, and quietly file away in the back of their mind. The property sits just outside Örkelljunga, a small Swedish village in the northwest corner of Skåne that most international buyers haven't discovered yet — which is precisely part of the appeal. About two kilometers from the village center, the house backs up against a converted railway line now used exclusively as a cycling and walking path. On summer evenings you'll see locals gliding past on their bikes toward town, and in winter the same trail becomes a quiet corridor through snow-covered pine. You can walk to the ICA grocery store, the local library, or the café on Storgatan without once touching a main road. That's a rare thing. The main house is 50 square meters — compact, honest, and ready for someone with vision. Built in 1910 and connected to municipal water and electricity, it offers a real working foundation rather than starting from scratch. The bones are there. What it needs is attention: new interiors, updated fixtures, the kind of hands-on work that rewards patience and results in a home that's genuinely yours. For buyers who want to inherit someone else's renovation decisions, this isn't it. For those who want to impose their own, this is exactly it. But the house is almost secondary to what surrounds it. The plot is generous by any measure — just over a third of ... click here to read more

Step outside on a July morning and the air smells of pine resin and wet grass, the kind of clean that cities never quite manage. The garden at Fensbol stretches out ahead of you — 1,600 square meters of open lawn, mature trees throwing long shadows across the ground — and somewhere down the gravel road a woodpecker is going at an old birch. This is what a Swedish summer holiday actually feels like, and this 1909 country home puts you right in the middle of it. Built when craftsmen took their time, the house carries that era quietly. The timber frame, the proportions of the windows, the way the structure sits low and solid against the landscape — none of it shouts for attention, and that's exactly the point. At 92 square meters of living space, the home is compact without feeling cramped. Three bedrooms mean you can bring the whole family or leave one room for a standing desk and a view of the tree line. A living room, a functional kitchen with that particular worn-in warmth you can't recreate with a renovation, and a shower bathroom. It's honest space. Nothing pretentious, nothing wasted. The kitchen is worth a moment. Yes, it carries an older standard — but older here means deep windowsills wide enough to rest a coffee cup, timber joinery that hasn't been laminated into submission, and a general feeling that food cooked here will taste better. Plenty of buyers will want to update it over time, and the bones make that easy. Or don't touch it. The rustic character holds up fine. Fensbol itself is a small settlement sitting about 10 kilometers north of Torsby along Route 239, the kind of road that rolls through forest clearings and past mirrored lakes you'll want to stop and photograph. Torsby is the main town in northe ... click here to read more

Early on a July morning in Finnforsby, the light arrives before six. Not the harsh kind—the soft, Nordic kind that turns the water copper and makes the birch trees glow along the shoreline. You walk out through the veranda door, coffee in hand, and the jetty is right there. Twenty steps from the kitchen, planks still cool underfoot, and the river is absolutely still. That's the rhythm this place runs on. Finnforsby 67 sits in a quiet pocket of northern Sweden, about 35 kilometres from central Skellefteå along the E4—a drive that takes you through dense boreal forest, past reindeer grazing fields, and alongside the Skellefteå River. The village of Finnfors itself is the kind of place that doesn't make noise about itself. No tourist infrastructure, no overpriced cafés. Just water, trees, and a handful of red wooden houses that have been here long enough to belong. The property anchors itself to the water's edge on a 1,673-square-metre plot. The classic Falun-red buildings—main cottage and a cluster of outbuildings—sit against the green of the surrounding landscape in that way that feels almost compositionally correct, like someone planned it but nature finished the job. The private jetty juts out directly from the land, giving the property its defining feature: immediate, unmediated access to the river for swimming, rowing, fishing, or just sitting with your feet dangling and watching pike move through the shallows. Inside, the main cottage runs to 60 square metres, which is compact but genuinely liveable. The layout is sensible—a well-equipped kitchen that opens toward the dining area, comfortable social spaces, two bedrooms with enough room for a family or two couples travelling together. There's a fireplace in good s ... click here to read more

Stand on the plot at Gryttjom Norra Bullerbacken on a June morning and you'll hear almost nothing — a wood pigeon somewhere in the birches, a distant tractor, wind moving through long grass. That's the deal here. Quiet of the kind that's genuinely hard to find in Europe for under thirty thousand euros. This is a one-bedroom country cottage sitting on a 1,025-square-meter plot in Gryttjom Norra Bullerbacken, a rural hamlet just outside Österbybruk in Östhammars municipality, Uppsala County. The price reflects the property's condition honestly: it needs work. Real work. Electricity, water, and sewage connections are not currently in place, and the cottage itself carries the wear of its years. But the bones are there, the land is generous, and for a certain kind of buyer — the one who's been scrolling listings for months looking for a blank slate in the Swedish countryside — this is exactly what that search has been building toward. Österbybruk itself is one of those Swedish towns that doesn't shout about its history but rewards those who look. The old ironworks at its center, Österbybruks bruk, dates to the 16th century and is one of the best-preserved ironworks estates in the country. The manor house and its grounds host summer concerts and cultural events that draw people from Uppsala and Stockholm — not the huge festival crowds, but the kind of gathering where you end up talking to the same people for three evenings in a row. The weekly market in summer brings local producers: cloudberry jam, smoked perch from Lake Tämnaren, freshly dug new potatoes that actually taste like something. Lake Tämnaren sits about fifteen kilometers west and is one of Uppland's most ecologically rich lakes — flat, wide, surrounded by reed ... click here to read more

On a still July morning in Grillby, the air smells of pine resin and cut grass. A woodpecker hammers at the birch tree near the old pergola. You're standing in 2,660 square meters of your own Swedish countryside, coffee in hand, and the nearest neighbor is far enough away that you can hear the silence. That's not a marketing line — it's Tuesday here. Boglösa Blacksta 12 is a 1929-built Swedish summer cottage sitting on a generous rural plot in Enköping Municipality, about 80 kilometers west of Stockholm and 40 kilometers from Uppsala. Two bedrooms, 51 square meters of living space, a separate guest cottage, a root cellar, an old pergola, and that enormous garden that immediately starts plotting what it could become. The property is priced at €59,500 and sold in good condition with a disclaimer clause, which is standard practice in Sweden for older rural properties — it simply means the buyer takes ownership of the property as-is, and surveys are conducted before signing. For international buyers, this is a well-worn process with good legal protections in place. Let's be honest about what this place is. It's not a turnkey holiday villa. The interiors are older standard — think original 1920s construction bones, the kind of craftsmanship that doesn't exist anymore, buried under layers of wallpaper and time. The guest cottage needs work. So do some of the outbuildings. But that's precisely why the price is what it is, and why the right buyer — someone who sees past the surface and has a plan — will find serious value here. Swedish country cottages with this much land, this close to major cities, at this price point are increasingly rare. People from Stockholm and Uppsala have been snapping them up for decades precisely be ... click here to read more

Early July morning: you pull open the kitchen window and the smell hits you first — cut grass, pine resin, and something faintly mineral from Västlandasjön just down the path. The lake is maybe a four-minute walk. You could be in the water before the coffee finishes brewing. This is what Lövsångarstigen 3 feels like on a Tuesday morning, and it's the kind of thing you stop taking for granted roughly never. Sundänge sits in the quiet outer orbit of Köping, the kind of Swedish countryside community that locals quietly love and rarely advertise. The plot at number 3 is a generous 1,278 square metres — big enough that you genuinely have to decide what to do with it. Most of the year, the answer involves a garden chair, direct sun, and very little ambition. In spring, it's all hands on deck for the kitchen garden, where the soil is deep and the growing season in Västmanland runs longer than most outsiders expect. The main house dates to 1967 and carries that straightforward, no-nonsense Swedish summer cottage character that architects have been trying to replicate ever since. At 35 square metres, it's honest about what it is: one well-proportioned open-plan room where the kitchen flows into the living space, and large windows that frame the garden like a painting you never tire of. A sofa bed means you're not wasting space on a dedicated bedroom when the room earns its keep as the gathering spot for everything else. The bathroom is compact, practical, and fitted with a shower — exactly what you need after a morning swim in Västlandasjön and nothing more. What takes this property beyond a classic Swedish stuga is the infrastructure behind the scenes. A modern air-source heat pump means you're not rationing the thermostat in ... click here to read more

Picture this: a Saturday morning in late June, the kind where the Swedish sun has been up since four, and you're sitting on a wide timber terrace with a mug of coffee going cold because you keep stopping to watch a pair of wagtails dart across the lawn. The garden stretches out in front of you — 1,386 square metres of it — and the only sound is the wind moving through the birch trees along the property's edge. This is Danielsvägen 16 in Gropvik, a genuine little Swedish sommarstuga that doesn't try to be anything other than exactly what it is. The house sits at the very top of a quiet residential lane, which matters more than it sounds. There's almost no through traffic. Neighbours exist, but you don't feel them. It's the kind of street where kids still play in the road and everyone knows which bicycle belongs to which house. Built in 1965 and maintained in good condition, the cottage covers 45 square metres inside — compact, yes, but thought through. The living room pulls you in immediately. Exposed ceiling beams run the length of the room, and an open fireplace anchors one wall. Come September, when the evenings start to bite, that fireplace earns its place. The warmth it throws is the soft, specific kind you only get from wood, not radiators. The kitchen sits adjacent, practical and connected, opening naturally toward the rear terrace — which is where you'll spend most of your time from Midsommar through to the August crayfish parties. That terrace. It's large enough for a proper dining table plus a set of loungers, and it catches the afternoon light at an angle that makes every meal feel like it was planned that way. There's a bedroom and a shower room rounding out the interior — everything you actually need, noth ... click here to read more

Front view of the holiday home

Step outside on a July morning and you can already smell the salt before you see the water. From the elevated plot at Norra Starrkärr 215, the Swedish west coast spreads out below you — granite outcrops, pine ridges, and somewhere beyond the tree line, the glittering edge of the Bohuslän archipelago. The ferry horn from the Orust crossing drifts up on the breeze. That crossing is three minutes away by car. The sea itself is 500 meters down the path. This is a small place in the best possible sense. Twenty square meters, built in 1940, the kind of compact Swedish summer cabin that generations of families have used as a launchpad for long days rather than a place to stay indoors. A single-room layout with space for sleeping, a kitchenette, and a sitting area where the large windows do most of the heavy lifting — framing a view that a much grander property would envy. It's move-in ready and genuinely functional as a vacation home right now, today, without a renovation project standing between you and your first summer on the west coast. But what gives this particular plot its edge isn't the cabin. It's the building permit already in place for an additional house of approximately 59 square meters. That's rare. Planning permissions along the Swedish west coast, especially within reach of the water, have become harder to secure as coastal protection regulations have tightened over the years. Someone has already done that work here. You're buying a 20-square-meter retreat with an 849-square-meter plot and a legal pathway to build something substantially larger — whether that means a proper year-round home, a second cabin for family or rental guests, or a studio workshop beside the original cottage. The infrastructure is alre ... click here to read more

Picture this: a Saturday morning in late June, the Swedish sun already high at seven o'clock, coffee steam rising from your mug as you step out onto the covered terrace at Myssinge 264. The birch trees are doing that thing they do in midsummer — trembling slightly in a breeze you can't quite feel yet. No traffic. No neighbors in earshot. Just the low drone of bumblebees working through whatever's flowering in the garden and the faint knock of a woodpecker somewhere in the tree line. This is what you bought it for. Set on an elevated plot of 2,359 square metres outside Alunda in Uppsala County, this one-bedroom country home is the kind of property that doesn't come up often. Compact without feeling small, practical without being clinical, and surrounded by the sort of quiet that you genuinely cannot manufacture. It's a holiday home and second residence in rural Sweden that earns its keep across every season, not just August. The main house runs to 53 square metres — a figure that sounds modest until you're inside and realize how intelligently the space flows. The kitchen and living room open into each other, which means cooking isn't a solitary activity here. Whoever's at the stove is part of the conversation. The fireplace anchors the room; on a grey October afternoon when the leaves outside have turned amber and the temperature's dropped, lighting it takes roughly three minutes and changes the entire atmosphere of the place. Swedes have a word for that specific coziness — you'll start using it unironically within your first winter visit. The bedroom is genuinely spacious for the size of the house, built around a double bed with storage that doesn't feel like an afterthought. The bathroom features a Separett compostin ... click here to read more

Step outside on a Saturday morning in late August, coffee in hand, and count the apple trees from the balcony. Six of them. The meadow below has gone gold overnight, and somewhere just past the woodshed, a blackbird is making an unreasonable amount of noise. This is Slottsstigen 13 — a solid 1906 country home on a 3,170 square meter plot in Zinkgruvan, central Sweden, and it's the kind of place that makes you stop checking your phone. Zinkgruvan is a small, quiet village in Askersunds kommun, historically built around its silver and zinc mining industry — you can still visit the old mine. But what draws people here now is simpler: forests that go on for miles, lakes within cycling distance, and a pace of life that feels genuinely disconnected from everything. This is rural Sweden at its most unfiltered. No tourist crowds, no boutique hotel prices. Just pine trees, clean air, and neighbours who wave. The house itself sits on a leasehold plot and spreads across 105 square meters of living space across three floors, including a basement. The bones are good — built in an era when timber was thick and craftsmanship wasn't rushed. Walking through the front porch into the hallway, a wood-burning stove greets you. In October, when the birches outside have gone fully yellow and the temperature drops fast after sunset, that stove earns its place. The hallway is furnished and leads you naturally into the rest of the ground floor. The kitchen faces two directions, which matters more than it sounds — cross-light makes cooking feel less like a chore and more like an event. The wooden cabinet fronts give it a farmhouse quality without being precious about it. Practically speaking, it's fully equipped: dishwasher, integrated oven, fr ... click here to read more

Front view of the house

Step outside on a July morning and the air smells of pine resin and cold water. Malmesjaure lake sits maybe thirty meters away, its surface completely still before the wind picks up, reflecting a sky so blue it almost looks artificial. No engine noise. No notifications. Just the occasional call of a black-throated diver cutting across the silence. This is what you're buying at Sandudden 5 — not just a cabin, but a specific quality of quiet that most people in Europe have completely forgotten exists. The cabin itself was built in 1996 and sits on a generous 2,500 square metre plot on the Sandudden peninsula reaching into Malmesjaure. Twenty square metres inside, which sounds small until you're actually there. The open-plan interior folds kitchen, dining, sleeping, and living into one room — the kind of layout that forces you to slow down, to be present in the same space as the people you came with. A wood-burning stove anchors the room. Light it on an October evening when the first frost has hardened the ground outside and the warmth it throws feels earned in a way that central heating simply can't replicate. No electricity. No running water. No sewage connection. That's not a caveat — it's the whole point. The cabin operates entirely off-grid, which in practice means candles and a head torch, water carried from the lake or a local source, and a privy outhouse that Scandinavians have been using perfectly successfully for centuries. For buyers who've owned conventional holiday properties before, this might sound like a step backward. It isn't. It's a different philosophy of rest entirely. The absence of infrastructure is what keeps this corner of Norrbotten County exactly as it is — untouched, uncrowded, and genuinely re ... click here to read more

Early on a Saturday morning at Pålsundet 13, the only sounds are water lapping against the shared jetty and the occasional creak of a rowing boat shifting in the current. Stockholm feels very far away. It's actually 45 minutes by car. That contrast — the immediacy of real Swedish island life against the backdrop of a capital city just down the E4 — is what makes this place unusual. Mörkö isn't a resort. It's a working island with grazing cattle, gravel roads flanked by wildflowers in June, and a cultural landscape that locals have been quietly protecting for generations. Buying a holiday home here means buying into something genuine, not a sanitised version of rural Scandinavia. The property sits on Pålsundet, the strait that separates Mörkö from the mainland to the west. From the large windows of the living and dining area, the water is always in frame — the light shifting from silver-grey in April to a warm copper at midsummer sunset. You won't get bored of the view. It changes by the hour. The main house covers 65 square metres across three bedrooms, a practical kitchen, and that light-filled living space. The layout is efficient in the way that Swedish country homes often are — nothing wasted, everything considered. Three bedrooms means the house works for a family, a couple with regular guests, or two friends splitting a purchase. The kitchen is equipped with stove, oven, and refrigerator, and there's generous storage throughout, which matters when you're planning stays of more than a long weekend. The 1,500 square metre plot gives the house room to breathe, with mature trees and natural vegetation that means you're not looking directly into a neighbour's kitchen. But it's the outbuildings that really make this ... click here to read more

Step outside on a July morning at Tappäla 148 and you'll hear almost nothing. Maybe a wood pigeon somewhere in the birch canopy. Maybe the soft knock of a fishing boat out on Viksjön. That's the whole point of this place — and once you've stood on that sun-warm patio with a mug of coffee, the silence doing its work, you'll understand why properties like this in Härnösand Municipality disappear fast. This is a genuine Swedish countryside holiday home. Built in 1954, 35 square metres of living space plus 15 square metres of auxiliary area, sitting on a plot of 2,788 square metres that feels far more generous than any number can convey. Mature birch and pine give the garden real structure, with open grassy clearings between them where the afternoon light falls long and golden in midsummer. The main rooms are compact and honest — two spaces that have been doing their job for decades, filled with natural light from windows that frame the surrounding greenery like living artwork. The home is sold fully furnished, so your first visit as owner can, practically speaking, also be your first night's sleep there. There's an extension already started on the property, creating a genuine opportunity to add a bathroom and expand the footprint on your own schedule and terms. Right now the setup is classic Swedish sommarstuga: an outdoor toilet, a summer water supply drawn from a dug well on the plot. It's seasonal living done the traditional way, which for many buyers is exactly the appeal. A disclaimer clause is included in the sale — standard practice here, and worth discussing with your legal adviser before completing. The patio is south-facing enough to collect heat through most of the day, and it's big. Barbecue evenings stretch ... click here to read more

Step off the gravel path at Fallvägen 17 on a late June evening and the first thing you notice is the silence. Not the absence of sound — there are birches rustling, a woodpecker somewhere in the treeline, the faint creak of the old wooden porch — but the particular Swedish silence that people who've only ever lived in cities don't quite believe exists until they're standing in it. This is Fallet, a quiet pocket of Gävle municipality about thirty minutes from the city by car, and it has the kind of unhurried quality that you feel immediately in your shoulders. The house itself is a 1964 fritidshus — a classic Swedish countryside holiday home — timber-framed and compact at 38 square meters, the kind of scale that forces you to live simply and actually like it. The living room is paneled in wood, floors underfoot are wooden too, worn smooth in the way that only decades of use can manage. A wood-burning stove anchors the space. On a grey November afternoon, that stove running and a pot of something on the kitchenette, the interior feels genuinely warm rather than performatively cozy. One bedroom. One bathroom with a shower and a composting mulltoa — practical, low-maintenance, and very much in keeping with how Swedes have been using these places for generations. What makes this property more than just a starter cabin is the plot and what's on it. The 1,162 square meters of land is flat and open, bordered by trees that give privacy without closing things in. There's a garage with an attached carport, two additional outbuildings, one of which houses a proper Swedish bastu sauna and an outdoor dass, and another that holds a glassed-in uterum — a sunroom where you can sit with coffee and watch the garden while rain taps at th ... click here to read more

Step off the gravel path and onto the porch at Öster Bännbäck 123 on a July morning, and the first thing you notice is the silence. Not the absence of sound — birdsong carries from the treeline, and somewhere just beyond the meadow the river moves — but the absence of noise. The kind of quiet that city dwellers spend years chasing and rarely find. Möklinta sits in the heart of Västmanland, a county that most international visitors fly straight over on their way to Stockholm. Their loss. This is the Sweden that Swedes actually escape to: dense birch and pine forests, mirror-still lakes, wildflower meadows that turn electric yellow in late spring. The village itself is small — a church, a few farms, a handful of roads — and that is precisely the point. The property at Öster Bännbäck 123 sits on 2,524 square metres of natural plot, the kind of land that doesn't demand much from you. No manicured hedges, no pressure to maintain a showpiece garden. Open grass rolls into mature trees at the edges, giving the whole place a sense of having grown here naturally, which in many ways it has. The main house dates to 1966 and covers 37 square metres of indoor living space — compact, yes, but thoughtfully arranged so that nothing feels squeezed. There's a living room and a bedroom, and the layout means you're never far from a window and the light that pours through it. That living room earns its keep. An air-to-air heat pump keeps things comfortable across every season, and an open fireplace fitted with an insert means that on a wet October evening, you can have a real fire burning within minutes. Both of these things matter in Västmanland, where summers are warm and bright but winters arrive properly, with snow settling thick acros ... click here to read more

Step outside the cabin door at Håmojokk and the first thing you notice is the silence — not the uncomfortable kind, but the deep, full silence of a boreal forest that hasn't been interrupted in centuries. Below you, the Kalix River moves through its banks with that particular rhythm of northern water: unhurried, dark, cold, and alive with salmon. This is Swedish Lapland at its most unfiltered, and this 35-square-metre cabin sits right in the middle of it. Located roughly 20 kilometres from Kiruna — Sweden's northernmost city and the unlikely home of the world-famous ICEHOTEL — the Håmojokk property occupies leasehold land in a setting that genuinely earns the word remote without making you feel stranded. You can drive in during summer, park, and within minutes have a fire going and a cast line in the river. That kind of ease, in a place this wild, is rarer than most people realise. The cabin itself is compact by design, not by accident. At 35 square metres, the combined sleeping and kitchen area works because everything in it has a purpose. The wood-burning stove anchors the space — it's the first thing you light in the morning, the last thing you check at night, and the reason the cabin smells the way it does: birch smoke and pine, with something faintly of coffee from the previous night. A Safire oil heater backs it up when temperatures outside fall well below freezing, which in Kiruna's sub-arctic climate means months at a time. Power comes from solar panels and a battery system, which keeps things running off-grid without the noise or fuss of constant generator use. A SolarVenti system handles ventilation, keeping the air inside fresh even when the cabin's been shut up for weeks. The sauna building is separate, an ... click here to read more
