AAn outbuilding, also known as the annexe or gardener's house, belongs to the villa. The outbuilding is located west of the main building and it's has a style that connects to the villa. The outhouse is one floor with a furnished loft in the western part, and is one and a half floor in the eastern part. The outhouse originally was the home for the gardener of the villa, and stables with accommodation for a coachman. The greenhouse that for a long time was located at its southern side was demolished in the 1980s.

When planingplanning for a new house the superintendent [[Egil Unander-Scharin]] contacted several architects, including [[Gustav Hermansson]] who had designed many houses in Sundsvall (after the devastating fire that burnt down the city in 1888) and [[Ernst Stenhammar]] who was the architect for Svenska Handelsbanken's bank building in Umeå, built in 1894. Unander-Scharin was not happy with their suggestions and instead gave the assignment to architect Östberg.<ref>Andrén, p. 13.</ref>

On July 4, 1904 Unander-Scharin was granted building permits for plot 2 and 3 in block Härmod (plot 1 was already developed) and already the day after the excavation for the house foundation started. On July 14, Unander-Scharin paid 7,894.85 to Umeå city for the two plots.<ref>Andrén, pp. 15-16.</Refref> The placement of these plots was the result of the city plan from 1889, where all plots within the area affected by the city fire in 1888 were redrawn. Unander-Scharin two plots had been vacant since the fire.<ref>Eriksson, p. 145, 146 and 149.</ref> The final cost for the villa was estimated to be 94,000, of which 12,000 was for furnishing and 4,000 kronor for Östberg's architectural drawings.<ref>Andrén, p. 29.</ref>
