Our 100-year-old house is desperately in need of a new façade. The walls are crumbling, cracks are appearing, and time has certainly left its mark. We know the work has to be done—but the big question is: can we actually afford it, and are we ready for the challenge?
Renovating an old Sicilian house is never as simple as it seems. Every project uncovers new surprises, unexpected costs, and difficult decisions. Yet this house has captured our hearts, and we're determined to give it the care it deserves.
To find inspiration, we travel to Agrigento, one of Sicily's most historic and fascinating places. Walking through its ancient streets, surrounded by buildings that have stood proudly for centuries, we're reminded of the incredible craftsmanship and resilience that define this island.
From the magnificent architecture of the old city to the world-famous Valley of the Temples, Agrigento is a place where history comes alive. If these ancient structures have survived for thousands of years, perhaps there's hope for our little house too.
Join us as we face one of the biggest renovation decisions yet, explore one of Sicily's greatest treasures, and continue our adventure of restoring a piece of Sicilian history.
Will we manage to save our crumbling façade, or is this project bigger than we imagined?
Come along and find out.
