    “Fantastic location, it felt remote but not isolated (we still managed to get some food delivered in the middle of some quite bad weather!). The views were spectacular and the property itself had such a comforting but modern and polished feel to it...”

A three floor uniquely converted modern water tower and a first purpose built Micro house in Iceland. The water tower was build in 1960 then converted to a Micro house in 2017. The view from the tower is unique with lava fields, craters, mountains and the cost line. Only 5 min away from the Blue Lagoon. One of the closest house to the Volcano in Geldingadalir Grindavík
If you have any questions don´t hesitate to ask
Stunning Panorama view from the tower over Grindavik, costline and all the way to Reykjanes light house on a nice day. One of the closest house to the Volcano in Geldingadalir Grindavik, around 1 hour walk form the house to the eruption site for average person and driving time to the parking of the volcano is 5 min. Located in old Grindavík neighbourhood which means walking distance to the sea and a small rocky black sandy beach, walking paths all around, ATV rental 2 min away, horse rental 2 min away, The Blue Lagoon is only 5-10 min away, nice swimming pool in Grindavik. 45 min drive to Reykjavik and 20 min from Keflavík airport.
