It has 5 rooms, remodeling and extensions are possible. Necessary renovations could be made in the living area (windows, repairs, painting work, a fitted kitchen, etc.) and then live cheaply in the house and gradually renovate, refurbish, remodel elements. There is a lot of space around the house, currently small animal husbandry is possible, stables are available. It would be possible to keep sheep, goats, chickens, rabbits, etc.; until about 1990 there were still cows. Natural cellar available. The building volume of 990 m3 offers plenty of room for design, and there are no legal obstacles to expanding for more living space. Living area today is about 110 m2.
