WE ALREADY HAVE AN EXCHANGE AGREEMENT FOR SUMMER 2022

Family house in Bergen, Norway’s second largest town and “gateway to the fjords”.

We are a family of four, mom (engineer), dad (philosopher and teacher) and two children (9 and 11) looking for a house exchange for the summer '22. After two years with restrictions due to the pandemics, we really are looking forward to travelling again!

Our house is a modernistic house from the '60s, and we are renovating little by little, while trying to keep the original qualities. The area where we live is famous for many villas by early 20th century modern architects, and the area is actually called Paradis. The house is situated 400 m from the city light rail that will take you to Bergen centre or the airport in 20 minutes, and directly by a bus stop. The nearest centre is 5 min by light rail (or 9 min by bike) away.

Within walking distance, we have several good grocery stores and a local café. A kindergarten playground is two houses away, a magical forest with a genuine stave church (sic!) is 50 m from the house (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fantoft_Stave_Church) and the kings castle with bathing possibilities by the fjord is only 7 min by bike.

The house is equipped for a family with small children, with toys, bikes, chairs, etc. We have a lovely, smallish garden with direct access from the terrace and living room, a trampoline and a climbing "forest" of rhododendrons.

On the ground floor you’ll find the hall, a small toilet room, a fully equipped kitchen, dining room (easily seats 8) and living room. We have an open solution, and from the dining room you also have direct access to the terrace and garden. There’s also a laundry room and pantry. On the first floor you’ll find 4 bedrooms, and a bathroom with bath tub, shower, double washbasin and WC.
