Interior
The house comprises the following on the ground floor:
- an entrance opening onto the living room, with a dressing area (6.62 m²) and a toilet compliant with accessibility standards (2.25 m²)
- a bright living room of approximately 28.07 m² with large windows, leading to the kitchen and dining room for easy flow

As is typical of a timber-framed house, the flooring is made of rectified solid oak (some knots have been filled). The walls are made of tongue-and-groove boards painted white with a natural linseed oil.
The house was designed to be as natural and eco-friendly as possible, with excellent insulation to reduce energy consumption throughout the year, as well as in the choice of building materials. A "Panzetti" wood-burning stove, an Italian brand with heat storage, heats the entire house, reducing the electricity bill to €72/month.
A solar water heater with a panel detached from the roof provides hot water autonomy from April until October/November... depending on the season and the weather!
