This Part of the Restoration Has Revealed Even More… | Old Finca Restoration

Welcome back to our old stone finca restoration in Spain! In this episode, we're continuing to rebuild the stone wall around our new window, preparing a doorway for a new timber frame, and uncovering some fascinating clues about the history of our ancient home.

As we work on the old stonework, we're beginning to realise that this part of the house may have originally been the front of the building, with large openings that could once have been used to bring animals inside. By looking at the stonework, plaster, and original sandstone floors, we're piecing together how this traditional rural finca has evolved over the years.

We also get to work preparing some beautiful reclaimed roof timbers, over 100 years old, generously donated by our neighbour. After years of dirt, dust and old nails, these chunky old beams are beginning to show their potential for a new lease of life.

There's plenty of practical restoration work too, including supporting the old stonework, planning the new doorway, and carrying out some temporary roof repairs before the rain arrives. As always with an old house, one job leads to another, and there's much more work ahead than we first expected!

Join us as we restore our old stone finca in Spain, using traditional materials, reclaimed timber and plenty of patience to bring this characterful old building back to life.
