Traditional and cosy old timber house with a small garden
Our house is a three storey timberhouse, built in 1926, total 144 sqm. On the main floor, there is a kitchen, 2 living rooms and bathroom, 3 bedrooms on the third floor. There is sleeping space for five person, two double beds (140 cm) and one single. In the basement there is a small bathroom, storage and a washing room.
At the back is a small private garden. The house is located right by the stream in the old center of Hafnarfjörður which is a small town only 11 km from the center of Reykjavík, in a very short distance from the bus station (direct line to Reykjavík).
