The tarp on top of that mountain is 3x2m. We don't have a wood shed big enough. At the end of last winter our smaller wood shack was crushed by two huge spruces. And because they were huge, we have even MORE firewood to stack - but nowhere to stack.
And - of course - our biggest and oldest fireplace, the huge several ton heat reserving fireplace is out of order. It has crumbled inside, the smoke channels which distribute the heat in to the huge mass are finally given up. There is no fix, it needs to be demolished. I knew it will come to this eventually, but I was hoping it could hold on for few more years (it's 43 years old, so it really has done all it could).
Se do have two other fireplaces in the old part of the house, so it is not a disaster as such. But it is very expensive job to demolish and replace. And VERY dirty job!!!
But, the new part of the house has only one fireplace. Some day there will be kitchen, and I need to get a wood burning stove for the kitchen. Price range is 900-9000€. I might want to aim to the lower end of the price range... It's NOT going to be an AGA!
And for the wood shed? The timber for the size of the shed we'd need would cost around 2000€. Pre-cut timber would cost around 3500€. And fot that price you still need to buy roofing.
Where is my lottery win?
