Information

Two years ago, we bought a 200-year-old farm in the hills of northern Italy.
With no renovation experience, a tight budget, and a deep respect for the history of the place, we set out to restore it slowly — one step at a time.

Across these two years, a lot has changed: we’ve cleared, repaired, planted, and built — bit by bit. We’ve started on the roof, fixed leaks, restored doors and shutters, removed crumbling plaster, mapped out future plans, and made a start on the garden.

Most of all, we’ve been learning. Not just about wood, stone, and mortar — but about how to care for a place with patience, and how to grow a home gently over time.

This is a story of slow restoration, and a home in the making.
