"A typical expat home or apartment in Isafjordur, is likely to be a modern, well-insulated property due to the cold climate. These homes often feature a minimalist Scandinavian design, with clean lines and a focus on functionality. They are usually equipped with central heating, often geothermal, to combat the harsh Icelandic winters. The living spaces are typically open plan, with a combined kitchen, dining, and living area. Bedrooms are usually modest in size, with storage solutions designed to maximize space. Bathrooms are typically equipped with showers rather than bathtubs, again reflecting the efficient use of space. Many homes also have a small outdoor area or balcony, offering views of the stunning natural surroundings.

Despite the remote location, these homes usually have all the modern conveniences, including high-speed internet, essential for many expats," said a member in Isafjordur, Iceland.
