Hello lovelies and happy new week to you all! How about throwing all sense & caution to the wind and buying the quaint 'Rute Stenugn' bakery on the island of Gotland in Sweden..!?!
Yep, it's for sale folks and for a mere 3.8million Swedish krona you could be waking up to the smell of freshly baked organic bread, straight from the log fired oven. Aaaahh!
Gotland as you may know, is a unique island in the North Sea off the East coast of Sweden. It's known for it's spectacular scenery, tangible heritage, local crafts, sheep (the famous Gotland sheep) and lots more. You simply have to go there if you get the chance!
The Rute Stenugn bakery includes a fully equipped cafe (originally an old black smith's cottage..), and a lovely greenhouse that has been converted to a dining area.
Perched on a hill near by is a comfy residence which was merged with an old three story mill.. I can imagine the owners of the bakery would have lived here quite happily.
Look HERE for details on the property and HERE for more inspiration and pictures. This place has so much potential, don't you think..!?!
xx Charlotta

Oh how serene!
Thank you so much for the lovely comments, so pleased everything has worked out for you....all the way over there now!!
Have a beautiful day,

wow amazing place, darling! beautiful photos! xo
Hi, Charlotta!
This place is fabulous, I'd love to visit this bakery, if I close my eyes I can smell the hot bread, hummmm!
Wish you a nice week.

This place is insanely beautiful! The mill, the house, the sea, the rocks...what a lifestyle change it would be...but not for the faint at heart, I suspect! Lots of hard work being a baker. Virginia x
Heh Charlotta - a change of life and a new country AND a new business all in one step - hmmm - sounds like a bit of a romantic dream doesn't it. The only problem would be that, as I am a BIG lover of fresh bread, I doubt it would make it to the shelves in time for the customers - I would eat it ALL.
Hope life is treating you well.
Thinking of you often.
Have a fantastic day (-:
I think this would be the perfect existence!
I have travelled all over, but never been to Gotland. Have heard people praising how wonderful, charming and lovely it is.
Maybe I should hop off the busy life and be a baker... I just need to practice my long lost Swedish... (and learn to wake up at 2 am evey night...)
Oh my - I´d need to be there this instant, it looks so wonderful! :-)
Hoppas du har en fin dag! :-)
What a beautiful place !!! wow !!!...amazing !! love from me...xxx...
Kjære Charlotta
Et stort velkommen hjem til Skandinavia og til ditt hjemland Sverige!
Det må være en stor omveltning for deg, men jeg kan lese at du er så glad, så glad.
Jeg er også glad, både på dine og mine vegne... nu er jeg ikke alene i Norden om å være medlem av "By Invitation Only", du er jo rett over grensen...
Atter en gang velkommen Charlotta - jeg gleder meg til å følge dine opplevelser i Sverige.
Stor klem fra
Lene
It is a dream. I have looked at it before. I was so happy so see it is for sale, to bad it does not fit my reality. Oh well. It will be someones dream. :)
Wow, absolutely stunning!!
Hope you are slowly settling back into life in Sweden. I read your post below and I am sure it has its challenges after being away so long :)
