Wow you are brave and really adventurous. Those old houses can be so beautiful when renovated. Ours is about 30 kilometres SE of the monument at the top of the mountain. Learned to paraglide from there and in the Autumn, the forest colours are stunning. Good luck with your big adventure. Gareth - Sopot and Wales👍

Slept in the 4x4 in the car park where the arch is a few summers back. Lovely sunset and rise. Good luck with the project.

If you don't already watch Brent Hull, I'd recommend watching his channel. As a master builder, he's a wealth of info on historical homes, he's got a lot of information on widows, as well. Another one, though it's a mix of realty and restoration, is Restoration Nation, they restore 19th century homes. Both are US-based but I think there will be a lot of transferable knowledge.

I've bought a Bulgarian house (yet to move), I have loose panes in the window, I've been advised to put a beading of silicone caulk around them. I also found an example of someone doing that on YT.

@specialistcarmarketing 😃 yes of course! Don’t hold your breath though - because, as you saw on the video, my husband fell through the floor! So he needs a few weeks where he isn’t doing too much - we also have family coming over - so it’s probably going to be June before we get round to doing the windows - but you will see our progress. They really are beautiful windows 😊🥰

They dont know of anyone locally who would be able to renovate those windows, but I found a company in Sofia.
