Property Renovations in Central Portugal - Renovate A Ruin
Project 2 - Caramulo
Jean Michel wanted a small holiday getaway as a retreat from the hussle and bustle of Porto where he plays the Oboe for the Porto National Philharmonic Orchestra.
The old stone ruin presented quite a challenge due to the fact that half of it's structure was embedded in an extremely wet hillside (Caramulo is renowned for its copious amounts of spring water).
Finshed Project
The specification here was to provide a rustic but comfortable living space, preserving all the original features of what was the oldest house in the village, but ensuring that the construction was dry, secure and had a contemporary feel to it.
The first part of the job involved an extensive amount of groundwork and drainage before any building work could start. Machines were used to expose the sub structure of the house before land drains and membranes were put in, both to the exterior and the interior. The result is that despite an extremely wet winter the house has remained completely dry
The building work consisted of a complete renovation and rebuild followed by external landscaping to rearrange access to the property
Nearly there, doors, windows and internal finishes.
Internal view and landscaping.
The project came in under budget and the results were superb.
