How a final wish became something special.
My father loved this house. He would sit up here for hours, looking out over the Moselle and the vineyards – it meant everything to him. When he passed away unexpectedly in 2020, it happened so fast that I couldn't even reach him in time from Switzerland.
His last wish to me: keep the house and turn it into something special – the thing he never managed to finish himself.
I kept that promise. What followed was a complete renovation – from bare stone walls to a finished holiday home. Every room tells its own transformation story. Below you can see how it looked before, and what it became.
