Description

Tucked away in the serene outskirts of Sundsvall, Sweden, Vivsta 135 in Allsta-Klingsta offers a peaceful country home experience, blending natural beauty with the comfort of modest living. Located a mere 15 kilometers from the bustling center of Sundsvall, this idyllic retreat serves as the perfect getaway or a quaint residence for those seeking solitude without straying too far from urban conveniences.

Embedded within the lush landscape of Sundsvall Municipality, this property stands out with its breathtaking views over the serene waters of Marmen. This isn't just a house, it's a story waiting to unfold, especially for those who've always dreamed of waking up to the melody of birds and the rustling whispers of the Swedish woodlands. Here, you're not just surrounded by nature; you're part of it.

The property itself, neatly positioned on a gently rolling hill, includes a main house that functions as a lovely haven for small families or perhaps a pair of friends sharing a home. Imagine two cozy bedrooms awaiting after a long day, a charming kitchen ready for home-cooked meals, and a living room that's perfect for unwinding or entertaining. While compact in size at 51 square meters, the house manages to exude a sense of degree spaciousness and warmth which is like the embrace of a cozy blanket on a chilly evening.

In addition to the primary residence, there are two guest cottages on the grounds, each with its unique character. One offers a bedroom and living space complete with a small kitchen – ideal for visiting family or friends who appreciate a bit of independence during their stay. The other guest cottage provides a bedroom and its own bathroom—a small yet significant touch of luxury catering to guests who might enjoy a brief retreat in the quietude of nature.

For lovers of the great outdoors, the location delivers in spades. You have access to both a swimming area and a boat dock, offering endless opportunities for swimming, fishing, or leisurely boat trips. Imagine spending your days basking in the Swedish sun, the cool waters of Marmen lapping at your feet as you take in the panoramic views.

If you require practical storage solutions, the property includes a storage shed, ideal for keeping tools or storing the children’s bikes and fishing gear that such a location inevitably calls for.

Stand at the kitchen window on a July morning and watch mist lift off the river in slow, unhurried curls. That's the kind of quiet this place offers — not the performed quiet of a spa, but the real, deep stillness of northern Sweden, where the only soundtrack is birdsong, moving water, and the occasional rustle of a reindeer picking through the treeline. This one-bedroom country cottage in Korsträsk, set on a generous 4,037-square-metre plot along the river's edge, is the kind of find that doesn't come along often in Norrbotten County. Korsträsk itself is a small, unhurried village about 20 kilometres from the town of Älvsbyn, sitting in a landscape shaped by glaciers, pine forests, and the kind of light that photographers chase from across Europe. In midsummer, the sun barely sets. By late August, the skies turn theatrical — deep violet streaks giving way to the first hints of aurora. In February, you can cross-country ski straight from the property boundary and follow forest tracks for hours without crossing a road. This is that kind of place. The cottage sits right beside the river, and roughly 350 metres separates you from the shores of Stor-Korsträsket, one of the larger lakes in the municipality. Walk down in the evening with a rod and you're pulling perch and pike from water that feels like it belongs to you alone. In summer, the lake is warm enough to swim — Swedes are not precious about cold water, and after a few days here, neither will you be. Canoe hire is easy to arrange in Älvsbyn, and paddling the connected waterways for an afternoon gives you a view of this landscape that no road can match. The house itself is 75 square metres, solid in structure, and honest about what it is: an older Swedish cottage w ... click here to read more

Korsträsk 330 - Exterior view

You wake up to the smell of pine resin warming in the morning sun, and the only sound is a woodpecker somewhere deep in the birch forest behind the cottage. No traffic. No sirens. Just the occasional clink of a coffee cup and the creak of an old wooden floor underfoot. This is Gottröra—a pocket of rural Uppland that most people drive straight past on their way to the coast, which is precisely why the people who find it never want to leave. Set along Vängsjöbergsvägen in the quiet community of Gottröra, about 20 kilometers inland from Norrtälje, this 1968-built country home sits high on its own plot—elevated enough to catch the light early, private enough that you'll forget neighbors exist. The 3,026-square-meter grounds unfold around a sheltered courtyard framed by the main house, a guest cottage, a sauna building, and several outbuildings. From above, it looks like a small Swedish farm that got quietly left behind by the twentieth century, and that's exactly the appeal. The main house is 64 square meters of honest, unfussy living space. Two bedrooms, a kitchen with a wood-burning stove big enough to heat the whole room in February, and a sitting room anchored by a proper fireplace. The layout was designed for people who actually use their homes—not for show. On a grey November afternoon, with a pot of elk stew on the stovetop and snow pressing against the single-pane kitchen window, this house delivers exactly what it promises: warmth, quiet, and the particular contentment that comes from being genuinely off the grid from city life. Summers here are something else entirely. Viksjön lake is a 550-meter walk down through the trees—a clean, cold Swedish lake where the swimming is good and the fishing is better. Pike and ... click here to read more

Step inside on a cool June morning and you'll hear it before you see it: the low creak of hand-hewn timber walls adjusting to the day's warmth, the faint scent of linseed oil paint that has soaked into every surface for over a century. Outside, the birch trees lining Skärklacken's lane are in full leaf, and somewhere down the track, a neighbour's cowbell carries across the meadow. This is not a renovated-to-within-an-inch-of-its-life weekend escape. This is the real thing. Skärklacken has been documented since 1664, when it operated as a traditional Swedish fäbod — a seasonal mountain pasture where farming families would move their livestock each summer. By the early 1900s, 22 farms clustered here and some 250 cows grazed the surrounding meadows. When the railway pushed through the Dalälven valley, the settlement transformed quietly into a small workers' community, complete with its own shop. The timber cottages that housed those railway families are still standing. This is one of them. The building itself is a two-storey log structure, and whoever has cared for it over the decades understood the difference between maintenance and interference. The walls carry their age well. Original doors, frames, and mouldings remain in place — not as a design affectation, but because they were simply never replaced. Ceilings, walls, and woodwork have been treated with traditional linseed oil paint in the old Dalarna manner, which gives the interior that warm, slightly matte glow you see in the open-air museum at Zorngården in nearby Mora. The ground floor living area has been fitted with new Floda pine flooring, and it sits comfortably alongside the older elements without trying to upstage them. Heat comes from two tiled stoves an ... click here to read more

The alarm doesn't go off here. You wake up because sunlight is coming through the timber walls in long yellow strips, and somewhere outside a woodpecker is hammering away at a birch tree. That's the morning at Vibyhyttevägen 3 — unhurried, cool, and exactly why you bought a Swedish country retreat in the first place. This is a genuine 18th-century log cabin in Vidbyhyttan, a quiet hamlet within Hofors municipality in Gävleborg County, sitting on just over 5,400 square meters of private land. Forty square meters inside, but don't let that fool you — the layout is tight in the best Scandinavian sense of the word. Every corner does something useful. The living room anchors the space with an open fireplace that, come October, becomes the entire reason you're still here past the summer. It radiates more than heat. It radiates that particular Swedish cabin feeling — the one people drive hours from Stockholm to find and rarely do, because most cabins this old and this authentic simply aren't for sale anymore. The galley kitchen is compact and honest. No granite countertop fantasies here — just a well-organized workspace that makes you realize how little you actually need when you're cooking with ingredients you just picked from the garden. And there is a garden worth picking from: apple trees, heavy with fruit by late August, and raspberry bushes that genuinely threaten to take over the lawn if you give them a good summer. The grassy plot stretches out generously around the cabin, backed by mature trees that screen the property on all sides and keep the whole place feeling like your own private clearing in the forest. Sleeping arrangements are cleverly stacked. The main bedroom fits two custom-built beds, and a loft above op ... click here to read more

Pull up to Gunnarvattnet 5018 on a Friday evening in February, step out of the car, and the silence hits you first. Not the uncomfortable urban kind—proper, deep Nordic silence, broken only by the creak of snow-weighted pine branches and the distant buzz of a snowmobile fading somewhere toward the Norwegian border. The thermometer reads minus twelve. The cabin's heat pump has been running since you switched it on remotely from the motorway, and when you push open the door, it's warm and smells faintly of pine and the wool blankets folded on the bunk. This is why you bought the place. Valsjöbyn sits in Jämtland's far northwestern corner, in Krokoms kommun, about as far into the Swedish mountain wilderness as you can get while still reaching an ICA store within a reasonable drive. The village is small and unassuming—a cluster of red houses, a few hundred year-round residents, and a collective understanding that the real point of being here is what lies outside the front door. Gunnarvattnet, the lake that gives the address its name, is a short walk from the cabin. It's a proper fishing lake, too. Arctic char, brown trout, whitefish—the kind of stocks that take decades of clear, cold water to build. Come July, you can walk down before breakfast with a rod, and on a good morning you'll be back in time to fry something in the pan by eight. The cabin itself covers 52 square metres, which sounds compact until you're inside. The layout is honest and functional in the way that Swedish mountain cabins have always been: nothing wasted, nothing missing. The kitchen was recently renovated and is genuinely well-equipped—this isn't a weekend getaway where you're hunting for a working tin opener. You can cook a proper meal here. The li ... click here to read more

Wake up to nothing but birdsong. No traffic hum, no neighbor's lawnmower, no phone buzzing on the nightstand — because there's no signal to carry one. At Uvahult 303 in Alsterbro, Småland, mornings arrive the way they must have for centuries: through pine-filtered light, the smell of cool forest air, and the particular quiet that only truly secluded woodland can produce. This is what you came for. This single-bedroom Swedish torp — the word for the small, self-sufficient farmsteads that dot southern Sweden's countryside — sits on 1,370 square meters of private land deep in the forests of Nybro kommun. Forty square meters of living space. Two rooms. Wooden floors and tongue-and-groove walls that have absorbed generations of long summers and crackling-fire winters. It is completely off-grid: no mains electricity, no running water, no sewage connection. That's not a compromise. For the right buyer, it's the entire point. The layout is honest and practical. The living area centers on a wood-burning stove — the social and thermal heart of the cottage — around which evenings genuinely slow down. Board games, paperbacks, the low conversation of people who've had nowhere pressing to be all day. The kitchen corner handles the essentials without ceremony. The bedroom fits a double bed and storage without feeling cramped, and the second room flexes as a reading space, a guest sleeping area, or an art studio depending on the season and who's visiting. Large windows on both sides pull the forest inside, framing whatever wildlife wanders close enough to notice. Store Hindsjön is a short walk through the trees. The lake is cold, clear, and largely unfished by anyone other than locals who know it's there. Come July and August, Swedis ... click here to read more

Picture this: it's a Friday evening in late June, and you've just pulled off the E18 onto the quiet lane that winds through the birch trees toward Mellansundet. The windows are down. The air smells of pine resin and lake water. By the time you step out of the car, the stress of the week genuinely feels like it happened to someone else. That's what owning a place like this does to you. Mellansundet 5 sits in one of those rare pockets of Swedish lakeside life that doesn't announce itself on any tourist map. This is a 40-square-metre, two-bedroom holiday cottage on the shores of Lake Mälaren—Scandinavia's third-largest lake—less than 50 metres from the water's edge, yet only a short drive from the centre of Västerås. It was built in 1967, and it carries that era's sensibility: compact, considered, nothing wasted. It's in good condition and genuinely move-in ready, the kind of place you can arrive at on a Thursday night with a bag of groceries and immediately feel at home. The interior is arranged so that every square metre pulls its weight. Two bedrooms, a shower room, a kitchen with enough counter space to actually cook in, and a living room with large windows that frame the surrounding greenery like a painting that changes with the seasons. In July those windows glow with green light filtered through mature deciduous trees. By late September, the same view turns amber and rust. When snow sits on the branches in February, you'll understand why Swedes invented the concept of mys—that particular indoor coziness that has no real English translation. The conservatory is the room that catches most people off guard. It's a glass-enclosed extension that acts as a buffer between indoors and out—warm enough to sit in with a coff ... click here to read more

Sometime around midsummer, the sky above Ödeborg Stommen never fully darkens. By ten at night there's still a warm amber glow sitting low over the meadow to the west, and the only sound is the occasional rustling of birch leaves and a woodpecker working somewhere deep in the tree line. That's the daily reality of owning this 1837 Swedish torp cottage — not a concept, not a marketing angle, just a genuinely quiet piece of Västra Götaland that costs less to run per year than most city dwellers spend on coffee. Set on a 1,736 square meter plot along the rural road at Ödeborg Stommen 5, just outside Färgelanda, this single-bedroom country home sits in a part of Sweden that doesn't get overrun in July. The Bohuslän coast draws the crowds — Strömstad, Smögen, Grebbestad — but this corner of inland Dalsland stays calm. You share the landscape with red-painted farm buildings, elk at the forest edge, and the occasional tractor. For buyers hunting a vacation home in Sweden that feels genuinely off the beaten path rather than performatively rustic, this is the real thing. The cottage is compact at 30 square meters, split across two rooms, and that's precisely the point. There's no maintenance burden here, no sprawling house demanding weekends of upkeep. A wood-burning stove handles cool evenings with the satisfying crackle that central heating simply cannot replicate. An air-to-air heat pump — controllable via smartphone — means you can turn the place on before you arrive in October and step into a warm room after a two-hour drive from Gothenburg. Running costs for the entire year run to roughly 4,200 SEK. For context, that's around €370. That's it. The robotic lawn mower handles the garden autonomously, so your weekends here sta ... click here to read more

Saturday morning, the coffee is already made. You carry your mug out onto the wide wooden deck and the forest is right there — birch and pine, close enough to hear the wind move through it. A woodpecker hammers somewhere out of sight. The cul-de-sac at Torsborg is completely still. No passing traffic, no sirens. Just the slow, unhurried feel of a Swedish summer morning doing exactly what it's supposed to do. This 1958 country home on the elevated end plot of Torsborg sits on a generous 1,638 square meters of garden and woodland-edge land in the Torsborg area of Eskilstuna — a location that doesn't get talked about enough outside Sweden, which is partly why properties here still represent genuine value. At 89,500 EUR for a move-in-ready holiday home with a guest cottage, fiber internet, and 35 square meters of well-kept interior space, this is the kind of find that serious second-home buyers move on quickly. The house itself is compact and considered. One bedroom, one bathroom, a kitchen that works hard for its size, and a living room centered around a modern air-source heat pump that handles both the warmth of late-autumn visits and the cooling relief of a July heatwave. Large windows face the garden, and the light on a long Swedish summer evening is something you genuinely can't replicate — the sun barely sets, casting that particular Nordic gold across the wooden floors for hours. It doesn't feel small. It feels edited. Everything here has a purpose. What the footprint lacks in size, the land more than compensates for. The plot wraps around the house with room for a kitchen garden, a hammock between the pines, a fire pit on the far edge — whatever you want to make of it. The deck is wide and south-facing, and if you ... click here to read more

The wood-burning stove is already crackling when you pull on your boots and step outside into a Södermanland morning. Frost on the grass. Birch trees catching the low autumn light. Not a sound except a crow somewhere in the spruce forest behind the meadow. This is Marö Lillhult — a small red cottage on a generous stretch of land just outside Gnesta, and the kind of place that makes you wonder why you ever needed anything more complicated than this. Set on 1,930 square meters of open plot, the cottage itself is 60 square meters of honest Swedish country living. Classic falu red exterior, white trim, a small veranda facing the garden — the look is straightforward and entirely at home against the rolling landscape of central Södermanland. It's been well maintained, and while it carries the authentic character of a traditional Swedish sommarstuga, it's genuinely in good condition and ready to use from day one. Step inside and the wooden floors creak just enough to feel real. Paneled walls, low ceilings, afternoon light slanting through windows that frame views of your own meadow and the treeline beyond. The ground floor has a hallway, a kitchen with everything you need to cook a proper meal, and a living room where that wood stove does serious work on cold evenings. One bedroom sits on the ground floor; a second sleeping area with sloped ceilings waits upstairs — the kind of room where children insist on claiming the best spots, and adults sleep better than they have in months. A practical note worth being upfront about: the cottage runs on summer water and uses an outdoor privy rather than indoor plumbing. For many buyers, that's not a compromise — it's precisely the point. Sweden has a deep cultural relationship with th ... click here to read more

The smell hits you first. Cut grass, sun-warmed pine, and somewhere behind the old apple tree, the faint salt of the Baltic coast drifting in over the garden wall. You're standing on the glass veranda at Söderängsvägen 2, coffee in hand, watching a pair of starlings argue in the birch tree. It's not even eight in the morning and you already know — this is exactly what you were looking for. Set on a generous 3,019-square-meter plot outside Östhammar in Sweden's Uppsala County, this classic red-painted country cottage is the kind of property that doesn't need to try hard. Forty square meters of honest, well-kept living space in the main house. A separate guest cottage. A proper woodshed. A garden that took years of patient hands to get this good. And the sea — close enough that cycling to the communal bathing area takes less time than finishing your morning newspaper. The main cottage has the proportions of a traditional Swedish sommarstuga but with enough in the right places. The living room holds both a dining table and a sofa corner without feeling cramped, anchored by a wood-burning stove that turns October evenings into something genuinely atmospheric. The kitchen is compact and functional — the kind of space where you make smörgås for everyone after a swim, not where you host a dinner party. The single bedroom is quiet and set back from the garden, and the natural light through the afternoon is the kind that makes naps feel earned. The glass-enclosed veranda is the real heart of this property. It faces south over the garden and acts as a room in its own right from April through October — warmer than outside but fully connected to it. You can watch the light change over the flower beds from a lounger, track thunder ... click here to read more

On a still September morning, the kitchen window at Vargmossevägen 44 frames a wall of birch trees already tipping gold. The coffee is on the stove. Somewhere out past the tree line, a woodpecker is working at something. This is what a Swedish country home actually feels like — not a postcard version of it, but the real, quiet, deeply restorative thing. Almunge sits roughly halfway between Uppsala and Arlanda Airport in the rolling, lake-dotted countryside of Uppsala municipality. It's one of those villages that locals guard without advertising too loudly. The pace here is genuinely different. People wave from tractors. The air smells of pine resin and damp earth after rain. And once you've spent a weekend in this part of Uppland, the idea of going back to city noise starts to feel faintly absurd. The house on Vargmossevägen was built in 1971 and has been maintained with evident care. At 48 square meters of living space plus an additional 16 square meters of auxiliary area, it's honest about what it is: a well-proportioned two-bedroom country home designed for people who want to actually be outside, not just look at the garden through floor-to-ceiling glass. The two bedrooms are comfortable and properly sized for couples, small families, or friends visiting from abroad. The living room is the kind of space where board games come back out and phones stay face-down on the table. Large windows run throughout the main living areas, and in the afternoon the western light comes through with that particular warmth that high-latitude summers produce — long, low, golden, lasting until nearly 10pm in June. The kitchen is functional and well laid out, with room to cook properly. Not a show kitchen, but a working one, which is ex ... click here to read more

Close your eyes for a moment and picture this: it's a Saturday morning in July, the Swedish summer sun already warming the old wooden floorboards by 7am, and the only sound reaching you through the open kitchen window is birdsong and the faint rustle of birch leaves. That's not a fantasy. That's a typical morning at Högaholma 2279. This 1909 torp — the classic Swedish word for a small country cottage — sits on a quiet country lane just outside Markaryd in Kronoberg County, about 1.7 kilometres from the shores of Bröna Lake. It's the kind of place where the pace of life adjusts itself naturally, almost without you noticing. You arrive on a Friday afternoon still carrying the tension of city schedules, and by Sunday you genuinely can't remember what you were so stressed about. The main house covers 80 square metres, and it's used every centimetre wisely. Original wooden floors run throughout — the kind that creak slightly underfoot, warm with more than a century of family life. A wood-burning stove anchors the living room, and in October when Småland's forests turn every shade of copper and amber, you'll understand exactly why that stove is the heart of the house. The kitchen is a practical pleasure: custom-built painted cabinetry that feels rooted in the cottage's heritage without being fussy or impractical. Large windows pull the outside in, so the garden's changing moods become part of the interior atmosphere in every season. Then there's the guest house. A more recently built addition, it has two rooms, a WC, and a compact kitchenette — enough that visiting family or friends get genuine privacy rather than being squeezed onto a pull-out sofa. This is the detail that changes everything about how you can use the prope ... click here to read more

Early morning in Yxtaholm, the air smells like pine resin and cold lake water. You pull on a sweater, step off the wooden porch, and walk three minutes through a birch-lined path to Mellösasjön. Nobody else is there. The water is dark and clear. This is what you came for. Set on Kvarnmovägen in the well-loved recreational enclave of Yxtaholm, this 1970s Swedish sommarstuga sits on a generous 1,698 square metre plot in the heart of Södermanland — a region of glittering lakes, quiet forests, and red-painted farmhouses that feels like it exists slightly outside of time. At 109,500 SEK, this is a genuinely accessible entry point into the classic Swedish summer cottage lifestyle, the kind that Swedes have guarded jealously for generations. The cottage itself was built in 1975 and spans 48 square metres. That's not a limitation — it's a design philosophy. Swedish summer homes are meant to push you outside, and this one does exactly that. Inside, the layout is efficient and warm: a combined living room and kitchen that catches morning light through large windows overlooking the garden, one quiet bedroom tucked away from the main space, and a bathroom with shower. The kitchen has what you need to cook a proper meal — a crayfish dinner in August, a pot of soup on a rainy September afternoon — without the excess of a city apartment. A small guest cottage sits alongside the main house. Solid enough for a friend to sleep in, or useful as a tool store and overflow space for the kayak paddles and fishing rods that will inevitably accumulate. Practical Swedish pragmatism in a small wooden structure. The garden is the real story here. Nearly 1,700 square metres of it, mature trees throwing long shadows across mown grass in the late ... click here to read more

On a still July morning, you step out onto the west-facing terrace with a mug of coffee and hear almost nothing. A wood pigeon somewhere in the birches. The faint lap of water from Hällebosjön, ten minutes down the track. That's it. This is what brought you here, and it's exactly what you'll find every single time you return. Hällebo 907 sits in a quietly coveted pocket of Örebro County, outside the village of Pålsboda in Hallsbergs kommun. It's a genuine Swedish countryside retreat — 49 square metres of well-kept living space on a 1,100 square metre plot, updated steadily over recent years without losing any of its honest, unpretentious character. This is not a property tarted up for a quick sale. The roof was replaced in 2020. The facade and windows were repainted in 2024. The bathroom was fully renovated in 2024. The kitchen got quality IKEA fittings in 2022. Whoever owned this looked after it, and it shows. Walk inside and the layout makes immediate sense. The living room anchors itself around an open fireplace — not a decorative one, but the kind that genuinely heats the room on a grey October afternoon when the leaves outside have gone amber and the temperature drops before you expect it. The kitchen has enough workspace to properly cook, not just reheat things, and looks out toward the garden where, come August, the raspberry canes will be heavy enough to slow you down on the way to the woodpile. Two bedrooms handle family visits or a spare room for the one friend who always stays longer than planned. One bedroom was freshly painted in early 2025 and feels clean and light. The bathroom renovation in 2024 is worth mentioning twice. It's properly done — shower cabin, modern composting toilet (a Separett unit, com ... click here to read more

The alarm doesn't go off here. You wake up because the light does — that pale, golden Swedish summer light that slips through the curtains sometime around five in the morning and makes it impossible to stay in bed. So you pull on a sweater, step outside into the dewy garden, and walk the two-minute path down to Lake Toften before anyone else is up. The water is still. The pines are reflected perfectly on the surface. You dive in anyway. That's the daily reality of owning Östra Toften 216, a classic red-painted cottage sitting on a 1,000 square meter leased plot in a close-knit community of about forty similar summer homes just outside Östervåla in Uppsala County. It's compact — 34 square meters of living space — but Swedish summer cottage culture has never been about square footage. It's about being outside. The cottage is where you sleep, eat breakfast, and come in from the rain. The rest of your life here unfolds on the lake, in the forest, and around a fire in the garden. Built in 1968, the cottage has that honest simplicity that makes older Scandinavian summer homes so appealing. The living room is bright, with windows that pull in the tree light and make the small space feel larger than it is. It connects directly to the bedroom — a straightforward layout that works exactly as it should for a one or two-person getaway. The kitchen is practical and compact, built for the kind of cooking that actually happens at a summer cottage: coffee before the swim, pasta after the hike, maybe a proper crayfish spread in August with candles on the garden table. There's a storage shed on the plot for bikes, fishing gear, kayak paddles, and all the other paraphernalia that accumulates when you spend your summers outdoors properly. ... click here to read more

Picture yourself stepping out of a steaming hot tub, wrapped in the crisp Swedish mountain air as snowflakes drift down around you, the pine-forested slopes of Hundfjället glowing under winter moonlight. This is the vacation home experience waiting at Salbäcksvägen 18 in Sälen, where Scandinavia's premier ski destination meets year-round alpine adventure. Here, your Swedish mountain retreat combines 130 square meters of thoughtfully designed living space with immediate access to world-class skiing, Nordic trails, and the pristine wilderness of Dalarna County.
