Coal stove manufactured in 1886. Still in use. All the lose parts where removed and rechromed. The black parts where masked and repainted with engine paint which is heat resistant. Damp damage on walls clearly visible. This is still part of the kitchen today.

All the walls that weren't part of the orginal construction, where removed. Here the patio wall is removed because it made the southern part of the house too dark.

Bathroom with damp damage and water pipes which weren't cut into the walls. The original bath is still in use and all the pipes where cut into the walls.

Water tanks which deteriorated the damp damage. Old farm gate also visible. The farm gate and lawn were replaced with paving. The tanks were also removed and made space for a sink.

South-eastern view with stone foundations cleary visible. Stone foundations are still visible today, but the bricks aren't.

Lead glass windows in the second bedroom. The lead glass was only cleaned up and the wooden window frame sanded down.

North-eastern view of the house at the start of restoration. The house today, which was kept as 'original' as possible.

Plants damaging the wood work where removed. The wood work where repaired and some where replaced.

Pantry with wooden cabinets were unserviceable and too far from the kitchen to make it practical so it was turned into a bedroom.

Lounge where the yellow painted fireplace and the patio wall lights are visible. The damaged floor is also visible. The floor was replaced and the fireplace sanded down to the original wood colour. Today this room is our dining room.

The outhouse and fruit trees in the backyard at the start of measuring of the foundations for construction. First only a double garage and two rooms where built. The second floor with another six rooms was only added in 2004.
