Well a house like that would be more expensive as well because it’s a turn-of-the-century house (sekelskifte). But a more modern house can easily go for much less. The further from stores, schools and healthcare the cheaper the house.

Mainly the issue is not being able to afford a house, but being able to afford a house close to civilization.
There’s plenty of houses to buy for 5 000 € or less but in places where the closest store is 100 km or more away.
