Hello,

It would be really great if everyone here could just post one or a few pictures showing the current state of their house.

I'll start right away.

For renovations, it’s best to provide a comparison of before and after the remodeling.

Before March 2014:



After May 2015:

That looks really nice. Are there more pictures of the house? I really like the brickwork. Why is the front door shown as red in one picture and anthracite in another?

The photos were taken away from the house. You can only see our lawn. Our house has been shown elsewhere before (white plastered). The houses visible in the background, even separated by a street, belong to other people. You might have guessed that 😉

We’re finally making progress. The windows have arrived, and the house already looks much less like a shell 😉

New construction of a two-story house with scaffolding around the façade and construction materials on site.


However, one bedroom’s windows have to stay off for now. Meanwhile, a few birds have built a nest in the ventilation opening and have chicks...

Shell construction: wall made of white blocks, round ventilation duct with bird’s nest, loose conduit tubes


Conveniently, the electrician also had time during the week before the company shutdown to do the rough wiring. Things are moving forward now.

Interior wall made of white blocks with a row of black electrical boxes and two round pipe openings; cables on the floor.


And here’s a view over the entire new development area.

The two garage units attached to the houses behind really look like shoeboxes.

Who designed this road layout? It results in very irregularly shaped plots. Unless you are planning a house without corners or something like that.

Some plots have an awkward shape, especially the two triangular ones on the island, which I find quite unfortunate, as is the one in our northeast area. The rest are mostly fine. Here is a section from the site plan.

What surprises me most is that it seems they wanted to simulate the “disorder” of old village centers. With the road layout, it naturally results in houses being positioned in all different directions at the end. You can clearly see this happening in the photo. It’s not necessarily a problem, but they could have made it easier for the builders.
