This house was built in 1720 and was uninhabited for the last 50 years. Finally Gustaf Willers
decided to buy it and give it a chance and a new breath of life.
So after several months of extensive renovations, he settled in with his wife
and their three children.

Trivia:
- The house has 5 fireplaces, one at each room, as there is no central or other form of heating!
- The table in the library is 300 years old.
- The renovation lasted 15 months.
- The door between the kitchen and the house was once used by the maid and is only 1.60cm tall!
Fascinating! I always wonder why homes are left vacant for years at a time . Thanks for sharing this beautiful home.

Amazing! So beautiful and I love that they left the character intact in the renovation. it still looks old but with modern conveniences (except for the heating, I guess). Incredible home.
