Definitely. I really like your brick houses; unfortunately, we don’t have those here.

There is a continuous lintel on the upper floor. But behind it are 2 rooms.

I suspect the attic is not finished. If it were, it would be pretty dark.

When ringing the doorbell, my shyness gets in the way. Asking neighbors is still doable, but not the owner. It is inhabited. There is regularly a car there. I will probably write a letter after all.

It feels like a crime to "insulate away" the pretty bricks. Honestly, I had hoped for an insulatable air gap.

The roof probably has to be tackled in any case. But increasing the overhang is probably significantly more complicated than insulating and re-roofing?

Why? The connections don't add up. Increasing the overhang in relation to insulating and reroofing. Increasing the overhang definitely costs a pretty penny. Whether you have the roof reroofed or want to insulate it.

The roof is in its original condition from 1960. I have 40 years in mind as the expected lifespan of roof covering. So the roof is already slightly beyond that.

By "correlations don't fit," do you mean that if insulation is done, something also needs to be done to the roof overhang?

If the roof is watertight and the wood is good, then a roof lasts a very long time. My grandmother’s house was also built around 1960, and we only recently had the roof inspected for a photovoltaic system. Everything is fine. Grandpa already replaced a few roof tiles once because water was dripping in. Only the top floor ceiling is insulated now. What can happen if you also want to insulate the roof slope from the inside is that the rafter depth from the inside is not sufficient, and you apply insulation on the outside and reroof. Then you might as well plan for facade insulation at the same time.
