Imagine harvesting vegetables from the rooftop or basking in the warmth of summer from your verandah, amid architectural heritage from the 19th century.

The place in question, located in Gavle, Sweden, also comes with a rich history; that’s where the famous Swedish candy Lakerol was produced. The old structures there include a yellow stucco building constructed in 1915 and red brick buildings built in the late 1800s.
