Hello everyone,
11ant correctly pointed out to me that while I comment here now and then, I never say or write even remotely anything about my own project. My wife and I are currently renovating an old rubble stone house originally from 1853. Why? Well, because we are not new-build people ;) . Many of you would probably tear it down and build something new. Since it is a property under ensemble protection, that’s out of the question. The goal is to give this ugly duckling a little charm.
I will try over time to catch up a bit on the current condition. It is currently early summer. Some things have already happened inside. And that is the status while we wait for the okay from the monument authority.
An additional highlight of this property is hidden behind the house. In total 950 m² of land and behind that there is only the Kurpark:
A pretty stupid mistake of mine if I still confuse sandstone and rubble stone.... the closed windows actually do have internal reasons. In the 1960s, a reinforced concrete ceiling was inserted, which also explains the concrete and the window in the upper areanot that I am an expert, but I don't see a single rubble stone on the front. Rubble stone is - as far as I know - roughly split stone. These are all quite neatly hewn. I find the windows closed at the top unfortunate, but maybe that has "internal" reasons? In any case, a nice project, I think ...
