Summer in the castel de la gervanne
Summer 21 was a summer of love. At the end of June we got married to celebrate our love, our family and our project. So lets have look how our love has supported and advanced the project, shall we?
We finally got our agreement from the french “heritage protectors” for our terrasse, and this is what it will look like from the outside:
We are obligated to close the great opening on the second floor, which means that our actual outdoor space is relocated to the top part of the third floor. The roof is actually pretty low, so we will will have to sit on our balcony rather that standing, but hey that is alright with me 🙂
Even if this was not our favourit option, we are always open to ” this or better” in our manifestations, and we end up with a much bigger kitchen, where you can see the three windows.
So as you can clearly see on the right hand picture, this is our kitchen. Well, you may need a little bit of imagination: three big windows in the back, kitchen appliences along the left wall and a bar type kitchen isle under the beam in back….
Insolation of the roof
In the summer of 2021 we hired Thomas who did the insolation of our roof. It makes for a big difference now. It looks almost like a real house, if you look at the roof.
The insolation is 35 cm with celulose. This is what is standard at this time and in france the governement helps financially with this kinds of insolation. I would love to share some beautiful pictures of this major part of renovation, but I am experiencinng some technical issues with photo uploading that I will need to figure out first.
