Red house on the island of Storfosna, 9,554 m²

About this house

This detached red house from 1966 is on Storfosna, an island in Ørland municipality, on a 9,554 m² plot in a quiet, rural spot. It has 142 m² of internal floor space and 5 rooms, with a kitchen and living room and 4 bedrooms upstairs. The island has sandy beaches, small summits with wide views, hiking trails and good fishing; a shop and a marina are very close to the house, the ferry quay is about 3 km away, and a bridge links to the neighbouring island of Kråkvåg. The asking price is 900,000 NOK.

The broker presents the house as a renovation object, so budget for upgrading, insulation and heating. Island living means planning around ferry times, which matters both for relocation and for a second home.

Buying in Norway: on top of the asking price the buyer pays document duty and registration fees, which the broker lists in the sales prospectus, and the sale normally runs through a bidding round handled by the broker. Foreign buyers can purchase property in Norway. Norwegian banks can lend to non-residents but usually ask for a larger deposit, so it pays to arrange financing before bidding. Some rural properties carry concession or residence rules, so check the prospectus and ask the broker.
