The idiot project ... or rebuilding a 350m² house - Part 1
Images of the house as we bought it.
Located very country-side in the middle of Sweden's Skåne.
It has been a mill, a toolshop, a car workshop, a weapon shop, a general store, a fridge rental before.
We bought it with the .. not so sober .. plan to fix it ourselfs. Entirely.
And that's where and how the story begins
Not looking too bad from the outside .. but .. it's all covered in plastic. brrr

Can I ask what you payed for this house and where it is? Maybe one day when me and my wife are retired we are going back to this beautiful country. I lived there for 8 months in Falun with my wife but she couldn't settle...
sure.
The plot is about 2000m².
House is at about 180m² base area on 2 floors plus a cellar are of about 100m².
Located in the very south in the middle of Skåne. About 25 minutes away from Lund and 35 from Malmö.
Price was 210000 SEK which is about 23000 EUR.
Not much.
But we had to connect to the sewer system which added about 150000 SEK .. 16000 EUR (only 110000 SEK fees plus all the work and materials).
End of the day .. 37000 EUR .. and a lot of work ;)
But that was kind of the appealing part. Shaping a house in it's entirety to our own ideas. And it's very very rare to find a house of that size at all here.
Wow! That's a lot of money for a sewerconnection för toaletten! I once saw an ad på Swedbank in Falun for an ö. It was the same price but wihtout a house! Again keep us posted as I love to see something happen from Sverige! All the best!
