1921 villa with mountain view in Viborg, Orsa

About this house

In Viborg, Orsa municipality in Dalarna, this villa from 1921 stands on a 13,805 m² plot with a view of the mountains. It has 116 m² of living space plus 3 m² of secondary space, with 4 rooms and 2 bedrooms (with the option of a third). Outbuildings include a barn, a potato barn, a former bakehouse and a shed with a grill, and for children there is a playhouse and a treehouse. The starting price is 1,600,000 SEK.

The energy label is E, so it is worth looking at insulation and heating improvements; solar panels may be an option on the outbuildings. The Orsa area is popular for outdoor life, which makes it attractive both for relocation and as a second home.

Buying in Sweden: the sale is handled by a licensed estate agent rather than a notary, and offers are usually made in an open bidding process. The buyer pays stamp duty on the title (lagfart) and, with a new mortgage, a fee for mortgage deeds. Foreigners can buy freely, but Swedish banks are cautious with non-resident borrowers, so many foreign buyers arrange financing at home. A pre-purchase inspection is the buyer's own responsibility.
