Tjena! How is life treating you today? Malmö is bathed in sunshine and it's hard not to cast our minds to warm summer days when we'll be able to sit outdoors with bare arms! A few summers ago, my family and I sailed in the Baltic, stopping at various islands including Öland. And today, I'm excited to provide a glimpse into a pretty cottage on the island.
Located in Glömminge on the west coast, picturesque Rohallatorpet once appeared in a German calendar featuring typical Swedish crofts. Dating back to 1886, the property was in total disrepair when the pair bought it in 2019 and has since gone through a total renovation while ensuring the history of the house remained intact. Today, it's listed on Bonanza Location - a newly launched film and media location agency co-founded by Sofie Izard Höyer - a friend whose beautiful home I once featured here.
When Julia Nilsson and her partner aren't busy with renovation projects, they love to look out at the meadows where deer graze on the pastures. Or wander down to the sea a mere 500 metres away for a dip.
Ready to take the tour?
So beautiful! I love the deeper earthy shades and the vintage and antique finds (especially that repurposed overhead rack for wine glasses in the kitchen!).
Is there anything that stood out to you?
If you have any questions about something you see in these pictures, give me a shout and I'll do my best to source it for you! You might also find the info you're looking for over at @rohallatorpet, where Julia shares her latest DIY projects and before and after pictures!
Oh, and why not check out my guide to island hopping in the Baltic - which includes Öland. It's a beautiful part of the world, perhaps it will inspire you to visit one day! And don't miss the tour of an Öland cottage by the sea which was for sale a few years back.
Finally, if you're looking for a location for film or media in Sweden, check out Bonanza Location. They are also looking for new listings both in Sweden and abroad (if abroad list it under 'Skåne' for now). Sofie tells me, it's free to list your property in 2023!
Have a great start to the week, I hope the sun is shining where you are too!

Perfection!

ReplyDeleteI so love this property. Every room is perfect . Every room is bright and airy and I feel like one can breath.
ReplyDeleteLovely. I love it!
ReplyDeleteLately you have shown a number of impeccable homes in the same colors. Does anyone paint anything besides sage and white anymore? I would love to see more color ideas as I'm getting ready to do some repainting!
ReplyDeleteHa! You're right, I scrolled back and the last few homes I've shared do have a similar colour palette, seems like I got on a roll! I'll keep a look out for something a little different in the coming days. Watch this space! / Niki
DeleteSo lovely.
ReplyDeletehello. a lovely house! I'm wondering about the source for the tv stand/holder in the living room. thanks so much!
ReplyDeleteThe TV is from Samsung and the stand was bought separately from a Swedish electronics store called Net on Net. / Niki
DeleteWow, so inspiring! The colours and the light give the perfect atmosphere, just a cozy vibe throughout the whole house. Thank you for sharing!
