'Farm' renovation: a cure to boredom.

Hey all.

So I've been away from this forum and the great people on it for quite a while now. Still snoopin' around from time to time though but not posting (much) and I miss the interactions that come from that.

Reason being, life happened and about one and a half year ago, after a VERY stressfull period ,my better half and I were able to purchase our dream house, to be turned into a dream home.

I cannot overstate how blessed we are this worked out since times are challenging, housing prices are up, economics not great, politics.. I won't mention.

 

The dream was to have no (direct) neighbours, a good sized barn/garage/workshop and room for a horse/horses. I'll let you guess who came up with which dream :P

On the same street we lived on we purchased this house which is basically a farm as we know it from the 50's, so built right after the second world war. Solid base, room for improvements. It sits on 2.5 acre land which is spacious by Dutch standards. Not to brag but we calculated that the property of my SIL could fit 28 times on our lot.

 

Some work has been done, a lot still awaits. Here are some pictures of when we bought the farm and over the course of I don't know how many days/months/years 'll take you along to current state, and beyond.

 

TLDR: bought farm, no time for hobbies, I show pictures of what I'm doing in the meantime :P
