Hi! In this video we will give you a full tour of the house, the outbuildings and the property. Renovations will start in the small off-grid cabin. We will share our plans for this cabin and our plans for the future vegetable garden.
Since the buildings on the property have not been maintained all too well and the house was only used as a summer house, renovating needs to be done. We will reuse all the materials as much as possible, as well as the many nice old treasures the previous owners left in the buildings.
We release a new update video about every three weeks. Subscribe to follow our journey.

You bought a traditional swedish house. Nice. It is not common to leave everything, it must have been a old person living there and the kids (or the state?, if there was no relatives) just did not want to take care of it. Think before you get rid of stuff because it could be hard to replace. For example the kitchen stowe that provides you with hot water and heat. It might just be one of those that you can use for heating the hole house connected to radiators. As you are in middle of nowhere I suggest that you keep as many firplaces as you could because electricity is not to be trusted, it could be shortages for weeks during very cold winters… Just keep in mind where you are. Just a tip..

@buildaway 7 месяцев назад

Let me clarify, all the houses we looked at, would leave all the stuff in it for us to keep/throw away. In this case, it was his kids selling it indeed. And we definitely won't be throwing away stuff with a function / value. Thanks for the tips!

Mooi! Mooie plek ook. Ik ben Zweeds en Nederlandse en woon in Californië, en kijk nu naar iets te koop in SE, in de buurt van waar mijn grootouders een huis aan het water hadden. Zo leuk om dit te zien! Een extra stuga is nooit mis zou ik denken (ook al is die niet 100 jaar oud), voor als je meer bezoek krijgt. Ik zou liever in een van de huisjes wonen dan een camper, maar we zijn allemaal anders he. Mijn grootouders huis werd ook met het meeste erin verkocht. Omdat mensen op oudere leeftijd overlijden hebben de kinderen alles al (zijn zelf ook al oud, vaak rond de 60), en te veel. Veel mensen die iets kopen vinden het fijn als er al van alles is, zodat je rustig kan bedenken wat je wilt doen, en rustig zelf kan shopping voor je eigen dingen. Of dingen kan houden die je zelf mooi vind. Succes met de verbouwing! Erg leuk om te volgen.

@buildaway 15 дней назад

Hoi, Bedankt voor uw bericht. We hebben ondertussen besloten dat de kleine blokhut verplaatst gaat worden naar het bos. Dan hebben we hem nog wel voor bezoek, maar staat het niet meer pal naast ons huis. Tot nu toe zijn vooral de spullen die achter zijn gebleven in de schuur zeer handig gebleken! Succes met het vinden van een huis hier in Zweden!

It's so nice when people actually moves to the cabins or small houses around Sweden and actually starting a life ther.e . It's alot of houses no one lives in and it's important that the whole country has people living there. Unfortunately I see way to much buyers getting cheap summer vacation houses and spending 1-2 weeks there every year then and leave. My old town has the same problem. Germans and Dutch people owns now almost 50% of the houses but never spend any time there. It's like a ghost town and very bad for the development. If owning a house they should use use it, not just own it in my opinion. Hope you guys have a great life here and good luck!

@buildaway 5 месяцев назад

Totally understand that you want to have people actually live in the houses around you. Which part of Sweden do you live in?

@allaboutperspective650 5 месяцев назад

I know the problem used to live in Österlen (Skåne) and in many villages many houses are empty biggest part of the year, now I live in Jokkmokk and here the problem is that many people are leaving the small villages.

At 03.40 when you open the door to the barn you can see metal sheets against the wall. Those are commonly used when we prepare firewood. You buy fresh logs (or neely cut fireeood if you don't want to cut and cleave yourself) cut, cleave and then stack the firewood outside to dry until next year. To protect the stacked firewood from rain and snow those metal sheets are laid on top of the stack and weighed in place with stones. The year after we put the firewood indoors to use.

So many younger people moving to Sweden and buying these "summer" homes. It would not be necessary to insulate anything if you are only there in the summer season so you are essentially starting from scratch. I LOVED seeing your "drawings" for the little house and gardens. That is an extra touch that many RU-vidr's don't show the channel watchers. The gardens seem well thought out and the amount of sun you will get for a short growing season is great. That "root cellar" will be a must to get ready for storage. I grew up with grandparents who had a "successful" root cellar storing. most items wrapped in newspaper and placed in sand so they would not freeze in the winter. We had raised trays in the cellar. Your mechanical engineering background will be a most needed skill in the renovations.

@buildaway 4 месяца назад

Thank you for your message! Nice to hear you like the drawings! We do too. It helps us to get an idea of what things will look like. The garden has a lot of sun indeed. It will hopefully be great for growing our own food. Great to hear how your grandparents used the root cellar. We need to repair the door frame so we can close it off properly. Then we will use it next winter.

Cute place. Where did you come from ? I hope your dream comes true , you've got a treasure and its in pretty good shape . Maybe being in the forest will calm you down abit and you wont feel the need to tear things down ? The newer cabin is darling and cozy . I cant imagine getting rid of it 😢 The world is in very strange times , that cabin could house a relative if things get worse and someone needs a home . The old owners left lots of useful things . Be thrifty , save your money as much as possible . You really are so lucky .. wishing the best to you ❤

You really have a lot of work to do. However most of this land has buildings that are in great condition. I understand you wanting to make it yours, but I would be happy with everything as it is except the small and large house need bathrooms added. I find it interesting the way you start your garden space. In Canada we would simply plow the soil and then top it with grass clippings, leaves, and some fertilizer. I am a 🇨🇦currently wintering is Phoenix Arizona. It’s nice to get away from the winter conditions as I am in my 70’s. Luckily my husband and I am still in good health. Wishing you and your wife all the best in your new adventure.

If possible, leave the small storage room as a pantry (if it is in a northern direction). It keeps a low temperature and is good for storing food, even in summer. Have heard people call it "svale" up in Norrbotten (northern Sweden). (10:45 in the clip)

We just bumped onto your vlog but are watching many other Swedish Cabin restoration vlogs, they all do the same thing demolish anything that is not modern and spend time and money…why?… if your intention is to live in the country and live of the land, why,why…why ….destroy…older buildings in the name of “renovating”…… why not just insulate better add some bathrooms and live with what is there already? Why

@sjuultjefromthelake4264 5 месяцев назад

@buildaway 5 месяцев назад

Hi! We are definitely not planning on just destroying, so no worries! As you can see we extended the small house in exactly the same style as it was. For the main house we are planning on things like insulation, a bathroom and a bit more room for cooking in the kitchen. The cabin will be moved into the forest to give our guests a nice experience without them being too close to the main house

@TheRealBigfeet 5 месяцев назад

I’m sticking with them for abit, it’s if they start chucking away all that lovely timber especially with him saying he’s a carpenter, then they’ll probably lose me unless it’s full of worm or termites etc. I do wish them every luck, with it and that they find there dream.

@100Noddy 6 месяцев назад

Fabulous tour from the start. I would keep the chalet, no point in ridding. You have some tall overshadowing trees,that will limit sun exposure and have potential to fall onto your buildings in storms, do you plan to fell any?

@buildaway 6 месяцев назад

All the trees that can hit our buildings are to north of them. So they won't be blocking any sun. They could definitely fall into them though. We're still thinking what to do with them as they're close to the property line as well. And felling them would mean that we wouldn't have any trees of our own on that side.. Keep you posted

Hi there! Just discovered your channel this morning, watched this video, now subscribed, will watch the rest asap. What a wonderful video, very well done; tells the complete story and overview of your property. Absolutely gorgeous piece of property, how wonderful to have all the structures and in pretty good shape. It was nice the former owners left so many treasures, furniture and other materials, it would be so much fun to sort through it all and be able to use some. The plans you have for the property and buildings sounds very well thought out. The tiny house is adorable and will make a good " tiny house" while you're developing the rest. Personally, I would keep the cabin and not tear it down. It looks in good shape and could be a part of your compound in some way. Excited to see your progress and design ideas and collect some tips. Thank you. P.S. - I've been following the linked channel for a couple of years; she also bought property in Sweden and renovating her cottage/house.

@timoterava7108 5 месяцев назад

Do you know, that especially in Värmland there were/are a lot of people of Finnish origin - known as Skogsfinnar or "Forest Finns"? They moved there voluntarily or involuntarily during the late 1500's-1600's, because Sweden wanted them to inhabit the empty forests. Later they were heavily oppressed and forcefully Swedified. Finns were imprisoned and their houses burnt. Using Finnish language was forbidden and reading Finnish books became a crime. Finns were even forced to emigrate to the colony of New Sweden in America, where the Finns became a majority. The iconic American wooden frontier cabin is of Finnish origin. Still the Finnish culture survived until 1960's, when the last Finnish-speaking Forest Finns died. Today the culture of the Forest Finns is reviving and people in Sweden are searching for their true roots. Today c. 1,700,000 Swedes and 500,000 Norwegians have Forest Finnish roots - e.g. Prince Daniel of Sweden included. In addition to that there are c. 220,000 Finnish-speakers in Sweden. Altogether there are over 700,000 people of 1st-3rd generation Finnish roots.

I am a old Swed ,and i heard you were going to lay out cardboard on the weistland, Dont, way i can garanti you are going to get a hugh ant colloni with egg in miljons .You have forestland in the nabourhood and there live Forest ants and a red ant that is nearley impossible to get ridd of and they bite horrible.you have probably even horseants in some old stumps out there. You can cut the gras and rake it of and even drive a cultivator over it and as finnich in one year lay black plasticfoil over that you take away before you cultivate and rake of the weed. often that weed will live in two years before you will bee free from it. Well you do as you wish but i have had own farm and done that misstake and got to suffer for that.The weistland is probably an old potatoland . If you have chanse to hire a traktor with plow so plow it and let it lay that year and do it again next year = two years . there is a chanse if there are turf you got yellow potatoworms and if you do like that they freez to daeth and you got a good potato land.

Hi! Thanks for the tips and insights. Only, this is an older video, and in the meantime we already started our garden. We'll see how it goes, but it is all well for now. Except for the lupines, these keep popping up...

The locals must love the hords of foreigners buying their houses because it's a trend on youtube...yawn.

@Vinterfrid 5 месяцев назад

It's hardly "hoards" of foreigners, is it? It's better these deserted houses will come to use againg -I'd say it's a win-win situation for the area.

Finland is like Sweden - there are a lot of old and also rather knew houses in the countryside - often with big plots of land. More often than not they are affordable - of course depending on the size of the land, the size and condition of the buildings etc. Also the more North or East you go - and further from the nearest town - the cheaper the properties are. With e.g. 100,000 € you'll have a lot of options, but you can get something from somewhere even by well under 50,000 €. You can search for options e.g. from Etuovi or Oikotie. And yes - we welcome with open arms people, who are ready and willing to live and renovate those buildings!

Dont throw couch , glasses or lamps and stuf like that out.. These things from the 60 ties and 70 ties are starting to become werry poppulair in Skandinavia. If you are going to get reid of that stuff sell it online. The little cabin you wanna take down is a guest house that EVERYBODY in the countryside has.

@anneofgreengables1619 5 месяцев назад

Exactly 💯

Hi. Thank you for your message! We happen to love old stuff as well, so we won't just throw things away. Thanks for the tip.

Don't take down the little cabin please.

@buildaway 5 месяцев назад

We are thinking about moving it into the forest a bit more so our guests will have a nice secluded spot right into the forest and a bit away from the main house :)

@alejandropulgarcambra 5 месяцев назад

@@buildaway Yes. That would be awesome. Much better that way. The cabin is in great shape and very cute.

Why does everyone buy cabins in Sweden? It seems to be the new fad

@southernfriedkiwi7726 5 месяцев назад

They are dirt cheap.

@buildaway 5 месяцев назад

For us it's that the people are friendly, the cabins are really nice and there's a lot of nature. Also, the prices are reasonable.

@timoterava7108 5 месяцев назад

It's because beardy hipsters were first spawned in Sweden back in the early noughties. The cult spread throughout 'up and coming' parts of Western cities, and once they'd ruined them and out-priced themselves, they migrate back to the source, like salmon, to spawn again. This time with video cameras.

What a great place! And great plans!- Please tell the price for it, location and how did you buy it? How can you support yourself financially, if you need that? I am very interested to learn more.- Thank you , Torben from Denmark.
