Kindagata 7

Relax at this calm and stylish new property. The house is under construction and will be ready in the beginning of June 2024, that is why there are mere moments of the outside as the interior is not ready until then. The house has two bedrooms, bathroom, living room, dining room and kitchen. The house is located about 3 miles from Kirkjubæjarklaustur, so is right between The black sand beach in Vík and The national park Skaftafell and Jökulsárlón to the east. From the house there are both views to Vatnajökull and Mýrdalsjökull.
