Hi Sophie, a beautiful girl bought a beautiful house, welcome to Sweden. 😊👍 I dont want to scare you…but it cost a lot to keep a house heated in the north of Sweden. Thats one of the reasons the houses is cheap there. So if you want to get any money left after the winter, put your money on heat and isolation in the beginning. Buy a fireplace like a ”kamin”(wood stove) with glass windows if you want to see the fire, you will get a good one for 20-30000 skr and you need to add the cost of installation to that. You dont want an open fireplace, it will try to suck in that cold air from outside, through every little hole you can find in that house. So a ”kamin” that use very little air, is your best choice, if you live up north. The wood stove will cost you, but fire wood is quite cheap in Sweden, so its a very good investement. Electricity on the other hand is expensive like nothing else, especially in the winter. It will cost you about 1/3-1/4 to heat up your house with wood and a good kamin, compared to keep your house heated with electricity in the winter. And so far north, you will need to keep the house heated the whole winter, even if your not there. Maybe not as warm as if you live there, but if you dont have enough heat on, a lot will freeze and break for you, like water pipes and so on. You dont want that to happen. Talk to a neighbour, they will help you with knowledge how to stay warm. And they probably know someone you can talk to about a wood stove. Thats one of the best things on the country side of Sweden, people usually is very helpfull. I wish you the very best with your beautiful house. 😊👍
@@samuelgustavsson1483 Hej thank you so much!! ☺️ appreciate your advice! Would love to get a wooden stove in here, just gotta have a closer look how to best do that! All the best to you 🙂
Just beautiful space! Congratulations. Kudos on getting things second hand to tread gently on this earth. One thought I had is to consider moving your office out of your bedroom. Your bedroom should be a sanctuary for rest and relaxation. Having your work and your sleeping space in the same location may not be conducive to good rest. A Google search on this topic will return some good articles on the reasoning behind separating those two very different activities. You seem to have enough space in the rest of the house for an office nook or desk. I can't wait to see the progress you'll make in the garden, which is so lovely already. Well done so far!
Thanks so much, nice to read that! I also can’t wait to see the progress in the garden - really enjoying it so far 🙏🏻 will consider moving the office somewhere else at some point 🙂
Oh my goodness! What a bargain, at $30,000! This is a great house, and you have so much besides just the house. Take your time with it. I love watching cows. Thanks for your tour.
I Enjoyed this tour , I think the nature is Beautiful and the house is in really good shape! Kitchen is sweet with a gorgeous dining area. Definitely needs a fireplace in living RM! It would fit the house perfectly! Library a win, especially if you could see the fireplace in a big comfy chair to sit in! Thank You for sharing!
Interesting that you have an old advent star and what looks like Christmas curtains, typical winter decorations, in the kitchen (and an advent star in the bedroom too) 😉 A really nice house for the price though.
I can’t deny that I don’t like the idea of having Christmas decorations up all year around 😁🙈 the kitchen curtains didn’t look too Christmassy for me tho, find them to be more country house style so quite fitting ☺️
Inherited furniture is always a dilemma. If you feel the dark wood is sucking the light out, then either paint it or replace it. I think living with the space for a while is a good idea. Take your time and you will have your dream come true. Actually, buying a house with land and a view is already a dream come true! Good for you and sending very good wishes your way!
Hi Sophie, congrats on your purchase! How close are you to towns and cities? Are you learning or do you already speak Swedish? What job do you do? I also bought a property for around 28k. It's a guest house, in that it's very tiny, but perfectly formed over two floors. Ideal for two to enjoy cosy winter weekends in or as a base for summer ones. It would also make a perfect and affordable and quite luxurious pad for a single person. It's just above Lake Como, twenty minutes from Bellagio and Nesso, about 30 mins from Como and an hour from Milan. Heating is a challenge, the house is made of stone and it usually snows beautifully all about in winter. It is surely not at all as cold here as it gets in Sweden, of course. I took out a well-functioning fire place (even well-functioning ones do not actually heat and are very dirty) and am about to install a wood burner, in line with Italian regulations for the region of Lombardy. I also installed new gas heating, but in my opinion it's expensive to run. Moreover, the home would be incomplete without a wood burner. All the neighbours have them. The bathroom is new, and spacious thanks to its layout, there's even a bath tub. There is a terrace holding conifers in vases, offering a view of the church opposite and of the cobbled street below. It was a romantic project and also a meaningful one, in that home-buying also requires you to contribute to the community, to be a good resident and guardian of your property. The renovation turned out to be more expensive than I had expected due to a dodgy local surveyor and contractor, chosen for me by my boyfriend. Both of us have learned valuable lessons regarding doing due diligence prior to hiring anybody. Happily, a new surveyor and lawyer are now dealing with this. Working on a house has been fun. I enjoy so many aspects of small space design and living, but am now looking for a large home, immersed in nature. Hence, I plan to do that soon, and to rent the little house to locals. How are you managing your renovation, work and relationships with locals?
Your ability to find such a unique opportunity and transform it into a wonderful home showcases both your keen eye for value and your creative vision. Your journey offers an inspiring glimpse into making dreams come true with resourcefulness and dedication. And I am Floating Village Life
What a gorgeous house! You fit right in. What is the heating situation like up there? Not too isolated? I looked at some Swedish houses a few years ago to start a homestead on, but the ones I liked were just too far away from everything to be practical. I like the peace and quiet, but not in the extreme haha. I enjoy my own company too much for that so I'd end up old and alone ;)
How marvelous to be given such a lovely tour of your beautiful new home!😍 Thank you bunches! And~~ Congratulations, & welcome to the exciting world of home stewardship, from your newest subscriber, in Minneapolis, Minnesota! 🌿💐🌿😊💚😘🌿💐🌿
What a lovely house and garden🏡 . I think i would make an art studio out of the kids house.... all the best for this project. Looks like alot of work😊.
There’s so much potential!… I love the home, I love the wood floors and the windows throughout the kitchen and living room, it’s so cozy! Kudos to you Sophie… 👍 Cheers from California!
Beautiful congratulations to you and enjoyed. If you don’t mind if I ask you how did you by house in Sweden and what do you need to be a resident or citizen there?. please when you get a chance come back to me. Thank you so much.
you can buy property as a foringer, it doesn't give you a citizenship though. You have to live 4 (or more years if you were here on student visa) and pass the exams on Swedish language, history, politics etc. to get citizenship.
It is beautiful! Exactly what I am also looking for too! May I ask you a few things: how is the winter there? Really hard? And bugs during the good weather? Lot of mosquitos? They may sound like strange questions but I don't know much about Sweden, but am really interested to buy a property there too.
What an amazing deal on that property! Wishing you a lovely time fixing it up for yourself. (the way, you may want to count the number of times you say "yah" in your video...I find it a little distracting, and others may also.)
Btw, ty for the tour of your beautiful home. :) When I got my home, the only part I could do was remove wall papers / paint the walls, the rest I hired contractors because I have zero skills. lol
I can't believe you bought all that for only $30,000.dollars, you can't even buy a really decent new car in the States for that kind of money. I can give you a tip on how to get your decorating ideas down so you can start discovering your likes and dislikes although maybe you're already doing this. I know a few people who started by reading and pulling out pages from decorating magazines of all the things which caught their eye. Soon enough you have a folder filled with ideas which appeal to you and as you start going over & over your collection of photos, eventually you start to gravitate to a certain look which I guess becomes you as you start applying it in your own home. I congratulate you on being courageous enough to take on such responsibility and I hope when you get really settled, you will think about adopting a pet and maybe even renting out your guest house. This could be the beginning of something really great for you!
Is the play house large enough to make into your office? Then you "leave" the house to go to work. If you work regularly, that is. Beautiful property and a true dream house! Congratulations!
It could be big enough in theory, but there’s currently no electricity in it, so I’d have to fix this first to get some over from the main house 😅 Thank you so much 🥰
Hejsan , hur mar ni?---Being from Canada. (but Im guessing anywhere anybody is from) even Sweden "I thought". HOW does this cost only $30 thousand? would be pushing a million or more in Canada to get this space and a guest house and other stuff this much------?????????
There's more supply than demand for houses constructed as second homes in remote locations, especially in the north where populations are shrinking even in most towns. As a Canadian, you might find some of the challenges familiar, especially if you've lived in rural areas. You might have a 50 km drive or more to the nearest tiny grocery store, mosquitoes can be a huge issue, and the daily mean temperature is only in the double digit °C for three months of the year. Heating costs can be expensive, especially if you're relying on electric radiators, and you should typically have some heat on in winter even if you're not there. (This house appears to have hot water radiators and an air-source heat pump, so that's good.) If the authorities decide your sewage needs to be redone to comply with new regulations, you might be looking at spending a third of the cost of the house. If farming activity affects your well water, it can be expensive or impossible to fix. But if you take these things into consideration, there are deals to be had.
What an amazing property for $30,000 dollars. I love it. I subscribed because I want to see why you do with the sun room because I’m an avid gardener. I’m going to go back and watch the other videos to see your journey up to now. You were so fortunate to find this, I send you so much love ♥️ and light ✨
I absolutely love the fact that you kept it like it was and didn’t replace all the furnirure with modern cheap pieces like you see all the infuelncers renovate their house into a sad black and white box.... your house is full of character and really beautiful!
@@Natalie-gc2ue omg no, I always hate when they do that and buy everything new and their houses literally just look like from a magazine! And I find decorating with my thrift finds soo much more exciting ☺️
Wow, what a bargain. I’ve seen many houses in Sweden, but I’ve never seen a house in such a good condition. In Sweden it’s very common to have a Wood burning stove and not a open fireplace. I live near Sweden in Denmark and my only heat in winter is from my woodburner. I just love it.
Thankyou Sophie, a very professional presentation considering you are new to having your own channel on RUclips. You have already worked wonders on transforming your house into your home and as you said yourself there is no hurry to achieve everything at once. The cost of building an open fireplace in your living room is going to be prohibitive. As you are in a country setting why not consider a wood burner stove. This requires very little building work to install a glass fronted burner in your living area. Keep in mind your house is made of wood and an open fireplace can create sparks and the potential for a fire. I noticed you already have a covered wood store in the garden and wood is generally easily obtained in the country areas. I will be interested to follow your progress and have subscribed. Well done young lady. AU
Hej, thanks a lit for sharing your thoughts on this - I’ll consider another wood burner stove and see how much it’d end up costing me. But hopefully shouldn’t be too much! 🙂 Anyways, thanks a lot for your comment, appreciate it 🙏🏻
Ah so cool to hear that you’re having the same dream 😍😇 I haven’t yet permanently moved here but it’s in progress hopefully by the end of the year. Definitely planning to make some videos around all of this as well 🙂 but the house buying process already wasn’t very difficult 🙂
Adore your house and property. Here in the US that greenhouse would be 30 thousand. You are so fortunate. What part of Sweden is it? Are there other houses such as yours for a good price?
Same in my home country, would be soo much more expensive! This is in Västernorrland- so northern/central part of Sweden. There’s actually loads of empty, cheap properties out here in the countryside, so such prices are not uncommon 🥰
The average price, including the more expensive newer houses in the towns/cities, is like 50k up here in northern Sweden. It's become incredibly popular for foreigners to buy summer homes and a lot also move here permanently because of it. Just nice houses and properties for cheap. At least for now, prices have been shooting up rapidly in recent years. Used to be even cheaper. You could get a house like this and large property for as low 15-20k euros not many years ago.
Hi, Sophie, I'm a new subscriber. Love your home, I would only switch rooms: imagine your current bedroom with two windows as a salon with your working desk, but your current living room as your bedroom, you just need to switch sofa and your bed between two rooms 😊
I would move the darker furniture if she switches rooms. In a larger room it wouldn’t be so heavy feeling. The other room would be perfect for her fireplace/wood stove. Beautiful home. Love all of her hard work.
You are so blessed. 🙏 Congratulations on your find. I love lilies of the valley and Germany. Not sure about Sweden. I am sure I would love it too. Can I come and live with you? I will cook and clean. Just kidding of course. 💞🙏

Lovely place!! 🎉
As an English person the majority of houses have fire places. It makes a roon look very cosy and very inviting in the winter. 😊
If this was my place i would put the big table in the living room area and the white table by the kitchen. Its a stunning house and wow the view❤❤❤
Definitely agree with you.
Yeah, true
Oh my goodness! What a bargain, at $30,000! This is a great house, and you have so much besides just the house. Take your time with it. I love watching cows. Thanks for your tour.
Such a beautiful and peaceful space! Good luck with all the renovating, you’re doing really well❤️
Thank you so much!! Can't wait to continue with all the renovation works 🥰
your personality is like a ray of sunshine. congrats on having this beautiful house. wish you all the best :D
Wonderful home..airy and spacious..great deal❤ Take your time decorating your home...each space will have the "perfect" item to make it special ❤
I agree, and it simply takes time to gather everything together especially when one doesn’t want to order everything “matching” on the internet 😇☺️
I Enjoyed this tour , I think the nature is Beautiful and the house is in really good shape! Kitchen is sweet with a gorgeous dining area. Definitely needs a fireplace in living RM! It would fit the house perfectly! Library a win, especially if you could see the fireplace in a big comfy chair to sit in! Thank You for sharing!
Yea I agree 100% - fireplace is a must 😁
Thank you for your thoughts 🥰
Wow Sophie!! I really didn't expected it to be that big! Lovely place ❤
Yah it’s definitely more than enough space for me 😁 thank you so much 🙏🏻🥰
what a beautiful property,,,,it will be fun to watch you transform it into your dream space
It's ok to have empty space in the rooms as you take your time and choose the pieces you really love.
I could so live there. What an amazing space you have found. Everything you need.
Interesting that you have an old advent star and what looks like Christmas curtains, typical winter decorations, in the kitchen (and an advent star in the bedroom too) 😉
A really nice house for the price though.

Ah so cool to hear that you’re having the same dream 😍😇 I haven’t yet permanently moved here but it’s in progress hopefully by the end of the year. Definitely planning to make some videos around all of this as well 🙂 but the house buying process already wasn’t very difficult 🙂
Such a beautiful and peaceful space! Good luck with all the renovating, you’re doing really well❤️
Thank you 🥹 my hammer is in full swing - hope it’ll be even nicer next time you’re visiting ☺️
Time to make kids, since you already have the kid^s playing house. That is the idylic place to raise them.
I dream of being surrounded by nature like this, you're very blessed! ❤
Adore your house and property. Here in the US that greenhouse would be 30 thousand. You are so fortunate. What part of Sweden is it? Are there other houses such as yours for a good price?
Same in my home country, would be soo much more expensive! This is in Västernorrland- so northern/central part of Sweden. There’s actually loads of empty, cheap properties out here in the countryside, so such prices are not uncommon 🥰
The average price, including the more expensive newer houses in the towns/cities, is like 50k up here in northern Sweden. It's become incredibly popular for foreigners to buy summer homes and a lot also move here permanently because of it. Just nice houses and properties for cheap. At least for now, prices have been shooting up rapidly in recent years. Used to be even cheaper. You could get a house like this and large property for as low 15-20k euros not many years ago.
I would move the office to the living space with bookshelves etc.
Considering it ☺️
Hi, Sophie, I'm a new subscriber. Love your home, I would only switch rooms: imagine your current bedroom with two windows as a salon with your working desk, but your current living room as your bedroom, you just need to switch sofa and your bed between two rooms 😊
I would move the darker furniture if she switches rooms. In a larger room it wouldn’t be so heavy feeling. The other room would be perfect for her fireplace/wood stove. Beautiful home. Love all of her hard work.
You have a beautiful place! Amazing price. Congratulations!
Congratulations ❤❤❤ lovely
Beauiful home, Spphie. I love the surrounding countryside.🌸
Where in Sweden are you located? Is it up north?😍
You should have documented the last year in the house. That's a shame that we missed out on that part.
Great home.
🇸🇪 🇺🇲
Just Beautiful. What a wonderful home and property.
Thank you so much. Glad you liked it 🥰
You are so blessed. 🙏 Congratulations on your find. I love lilies of the valley and Germany. Not sure about Sweden. I am sure I would love it too. Can I come and live with you? I will cook and clean. Just kidding of course. 💞🙏
