Thank you, every time I think of the cantina, I think of that damn SNL skit you showed me of cork soaking and I start laughing.

Us too and excited to see how it comes out. Thanks for watching.

It took awhile. It was just the family and it was raining the whole time. It was a bit of a mess.

You and me both!

I think so too! Thanks so much.

Oh that was a big discussion for a long time. In the end we decided to put the pizza/bread oven on the new terrace next to the grill. We thought we would use it more on the terrace when we are entertaining outside. That project will hopefully start late spring/early summer.

We are excited to see it also. Now you have to come back so we can host lunch here.

Thanks, I am so excited to have a big kitchen again for cooking.

Thank you. We had a really nice holiday. I had a friend come to visit and we enjoyed just hanging out and eating way too much. Hope your holidays were good also.

You're welcome, glad you enjoyed it.

The views were amazing, they didn't feel real. I think the furniture would be horsehair also from the age of them.

I think it wasn't so clean because most of the tenants weren't there. I don't know for sure but it seemed like a summer retreat to me. Also I thought it would be a great opportunity to do something nice since no one else seemed to really care.

Not that I know of but just a mountain.

Glad you enjoyed it! It has an amazing history. I was so lucky to see it.

I wouldn't say it was dangerous at all. It was very solid and in good condition for it's age. I have seen places that were way worse. I just think it needs a little TLC and it would be great.

Glad you enjoyed it, the views were stunning.

I've never seen anything like this for this price. It just needs a little love.

No, never paint over mold (even with Kilz) paint is food for mold, it will eventually eat thru. You need to 1) find the source(s) of water intrusion and fix them…..2) certain molds are highly toxic and it’s nice to know what you are dealing with by professional mold testing via lab 3) best to hire a licensed professional remediation company The mold you see is most often just the tip of the iceberg. Don’t underestimate the dangers of mold to your heath….ask me how I know 😢

Yeah, sadly mold is a real issue here in Italy but not like American. I can't quite figure out the difference. It seems to clean up somewhat easy here.

You’re welcome 😊 Glad you enjoyed it.

They were asking 180,000 and the link to the listing is in the description.

Me too!

It was really spacious. Thanks for watching.

It's actually not hard to clean mold here. I think it's because of the humidity and ventilation but since it's not sheet rock, you can spray a household cleaner and clean it up. I had that issue in my cantina and ended up just running a fan on low to keep the air moving and so far so good.

It was very high up there, but that's what gives you those views.

@ouritalianadventures6190 Uh, let's see...the footage showing the property? Perhaps the long trek on the way...? Unless you're in a helicopter or a dirt bike that about sums it up!

Well, I grew up in the Appalachian mountains (not the elite area) and I have to say that this area of Italy is very similar. The trees are different but the landscape and the views are really beautiful. Keep in mind, this area has century old buildings compare to America where things are only a couple hundred years old. To each his own, that is what makes the world go round.

I don't know if I understood correctly but I think you can drive right up to the entrance is you live there. If not, it's a bit of a walk from the public parking area where I parked. Not too bad but it was a walk. Mold is very common in Italy but can be cleaned up easy not as bad as it is with sheetrock. I don't really know how expensive it would be to repair frescos but I would think it would be a little pricey since it's such a specialized talent. From my drone shots, the roof seemed okay but I'm not an expert.

Sadly mold is common here, I have an ongoing battle with it even in our little house. But it cleans up easy and not as bad as in the U.S.

Mold 😢

Mold isn't terrible here and cleans up very easy.

I do my best to describe what I am seeing. It's hard to talk and film at the same time. I'm not a professional and just try my best and sometimes make mistakes. I'm human. Yes, there are 3 bathrooms and some of the doors connect the rooms.

I kept thinking of every horror movie I'd ever seen and was all alone in that room. LOL

Mold isn't a terrible issue here and cleans up very easy.

That's a good point, I forgot to ask if you need permission to do any work. For our house since we live in a historical part of town, we need permission for anything outside. Inside is fine.

Water intrusion and humidity = perfect conditions for mold growth

That’s what other channels have said. The air circulation must be maintained or mold will form in stone buildings

Yes, both comments are correct. It's very common here from the humidity. We fight it in our little house from all the stone. A contractor in the states gave me the best tip when we lived near the ocean and had issues. He said just buy a cheap fan and leave it on low to circulate the air. It works so well. I had to do it in our cantina to control the mold.

Glad to hear it looks better not worse.

no onto a steep stone tiled roof

I should have asked that but forgot.

Mold is common in stone houses in Italy but not that big of an issue.

I think it wasn't super clean because no one is living there currently but It would clean up easily.

I did add some history to the description but I'm not an expert. Best to check with google.

please contact the listing agent in the description for more information

Yes mold

It's for sale not rent and the agent said the listing price was 180,000. The link to the listing with more info is in the description. No odors at all and mold is common is stone houses but easy to clean. I don't know if they allow dogs but Italy is very pet friendly. Best to ask the agent in the listing.
