There is a lot to do. The houses are old and there are some things to repair and modernize. The plan is not to leave it at the minimum, but to improve everything together so that people can live their dreams on the property.

We are currently somewhere between phase 1 and 2 and we are also trying to make everything a bit prettier.

Phase 1 Basic services

The basic services include:

• Fresh water supply: Pumps, tanks, distribution, collecting rainwater if necessary
• Waste water: renewal of the small sewage treatment plant
• Hot water: heating, extra boiler if necessary
• Heat: Renew heating systems
• Internet: Connect to the network
• Washing: Washing machine, drying room, dishwasher?
• Transportation: Buy a car, clear the road if necessary
• Post: How does it actually work here?
• Waste: How does it actually work here?
• Sealing: Replace broken windows, double glazing if necessary
• Electricity: Check cables, retrofit safety elements
• Tools: So that people can always build
• Remove brown wallpaper and paint
• Ensure usability of kitchens, bathrooms, rooms…

Phase 2 Home improvement

Now you can live here without any problems. Unfortunately, it is relatively expensive, an old house lets out a lot of heat and is not particularly efficient. There are things that could be done better. It works, but it’s still not particularly nice to live here.

Now come things like

• Insulate everything
• Energy, water and heat-saving measures
• Making the kitchen bigger
• Renewing the bathrooms
• …

Phase 3 Now it’s getting awesome!

Now living here is great, everything we need is done and we can devote ourselves to fun things.

• Repair the sauna?
• Workshop in the cellar?
• Create a garden?
• Solar panels?
• What do you fancy?
