Looking for a unique living experience? Volda floating home gives you a rare opportunity of living not near, but ON a Norwegian fjord! Volda is a rebuilt car ferry made into an architectural home. It has 7 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, 2 tv rooms and big open spaces for you and your family to relax on. Volda is anchored on a private property away from all the lights and noises from the city. This makes it ideal to see both wildlife and the northern lights (aurora borealis). Volda is perfect for a large group of friends or families.
