One room under the beams
The kitchen runs straight into the living room, one long room under black-painted beams with a wood stove near its middle and windows on both long walls; the floor plan gives the ceiling there as 214 centimeters, about seven feet. The house is a whitewashed, thatched farm cottage of 1900 in Skovby on Falster, 646 square feet on one floor, renovated in the mid-2000s.
From the road a red door opens into the kitchen, a fitted kitchen with a steel sink and a place to eat, and a second door at the back opens from a small entrance nook. Past the living room is the one bedroom; the shower room, tiled in a light color, is at the kitchen end. The first floor under the thatch has not been fitted out, and the listing says there is space up there for more rooms.
Grønsund
From the house, the listing says, you can catch a glimpse of Grønsund over the fields, and in the drone photographs the water lies along the horizon beyond the farmland and a wood. Grønsund is the strait that separates Falster from Bogø and Møn; in the summer half of the year a ferry crosses it from Stubbekøbing to Bogø. Stubbekøbing and Nørre Alslev, with their shops, are each about five minutes away by car.
The plot
The cottage stands on a plot of 734 square meters, about 7,900 square feet, with roses against the white walls, a timber shelter with a table and chairs at the back and a wooden gate to the lane. The thatch is held at the ridge by crossed timber pegs, and one gable end is clad in boards. The house is heated by an air-to-air heat pump and the wood stove.
