Our summer cottage is built in three sections, approximately 3 meters wide, which are then assembled together. Section 3 on the right comes in two different designs. We have option 2 with an extra bedroom but want to take down the wall into the living room as in option 1, and are wondering if it could be load-bearing? The ridge marked in blue. Blueprint of a summer house with sections, showing an area with bedrooms and a living room. A red arrow points to a wall in the right section. Floor plan of a summer cottage with three sections. Section 3 has two options; option 2 is shown with an extra bedroom. Blue line indicates the ridge.

No thoughts from anyone? @justusandersson for example?
 
If it is assembled from modules, it seems reasonable that each module's "outer walls" are load-bearing, i.e., also the walls between the modules. But it's hard to say just from the drawings.
 
One can say for certain that the wall with the arrow is not load-bearing. This is clear from the sectional drawing. It's also not usually the case when using volume elements.

Thank you very much for your help!
