Västergötland 3040 - Pleasant house in the countryside with a fenced yard

Charming, Cozy Cottage in Traditional Scandinavian Style

This lovely wooden house dates back to the late 1800s and was lovingly extended and renovated by us in 2014. Built on two floors, it combines historical charm with modern comfort.

The entrance floor features a practical hallway with underfloor heating and two wardrobes, a bathroom with shower, sink and washing machine, and a well-equipped kitchen with stove, fridge/freezer, oven, microwave, dishwasher and an old-fashioned wood stove. The living room has exposed log walls, a sofa set, and a traditional tiled stove.

There is also a hallway, a glassed veranda perfect for enjoying sunsets, and a bedroom with a double bed and another tiled stove. A staircase from the living room leads to the upper floor with a cozy lounge featuring a dining table, sofa set and TV, and a large bedroom with two single beds and an extra foldable travel bed. A baby cot is also available. More travel cots can be added upon request.
