This two storey Sirince house had become a ruin when the owners purchased it. The upper floors had completely collapsed and there was a large fig tree growing out of the back wall. The house was inhabitated by a family of goats but the semicircular outline of the original frame of the front door was still in place and many of the villagers could remember when this family home had been inhabited. The existing building had to be raised to the ground and the whole infrastructure of the house reestablished before the painstaking reconstruction work began on the house. Reconstruction work lasted 2 years.The outside of the house is white with smooth plaster as all the houses in the village were originally.

The owners decided to leave the beautiful stone work inside exposed to remind the resident of its half metre thick stone walls, cool in summer and warm in winter.

This tiny sirince house would originally have housed cattle downstairs and the family would have lived upstairs. Now the accomodation has an intimate open plan living room and diner/ kitchen with a large fireplace and picture windows overlooking the village and the valley beyond stretching up to the mountains.
