Surrounded by apple blossoms, gravel crunches underfoot as we reach lthe entrance of an old country house. Lichen-covered stone steps beckon you to climb up and enter through the wide-open red double doors.
Nordic Homestead takes readers to a place where a piece of land is a slice of paradise. All ten families featured in the book have moved to the countryside, where there is plenty of room to breathe. They all share the desire to be surrounded by nature and see the world anew, leaving the monotonous behind, devoting more time to family and embracing peace and tranquility.
The book will take you on a journey to the homes of the Finnish countryside, where deserted log houses, old farmhouses, manor houses and former village schools with creaking floorboards, cozy fireplaces, worn brick walls and other beautiful original features await their new loyal owners.
Authors Riina Ahtola and Kati Pilli-Sihvola share l'love for country life and old houses, which are not only beautiful but have their own enchanting stories to tell.
