The In-Town House.
I'm excited to get going on the serious amount of work to get this place in shape. The one bedroom cottage is on the left. The restaurant is on the right. We will park the motorhome in between the two buildings. We plan to convert the restaurant to a living space first. The cottage will come later (except for repairing the cottage's roof before the rainy season).
Cottage, restaurant, and slab:
The dead evaporative cooler, and that car is dead, too:

Looks like you have quite the awesome adventure ahead! Can't wait to hear the details. Blessings, Joanne
Me either ! The outside of the store area has a spanish feel and that would take nothing but yellow,white or orange oops paint.wish I was anywhere near it would be fun to help!
So what are you going to write on the sign? I was in OJ last week and they has some nice wrought iron accents cheap. I'm thinking about getting some for my place.
Nothing nicer than a challenge - wish I was there...
BTW - agree with Comeca Jones - orangey clay coloured paint (pick a colour from the stone work wall to carry through the concept to the plastered wall) with perhaps Spanish / Greek blue accents (window frames / doors) and plenty of green plants under the windows to mute the "exposure"?
Can the evapourative cooler be fixed?
That is sooo neato, Ginger ... I've been gone for so long, I am out of the loop!
Wow, great bones, there.
Frann, remind me about the wrought iron in OJ when I get there. Will need to heck that out.
What a cool project. Please take pictures and post them as you go along. I love to take old buildings and refurbish them. Looks funs.

Thought you'd like this.
OOOooh, I do! Especially the cowboy hats.
Congratulations on your new digs. I don't know why I was under the impression that you were going to open up the restaurant...I guess I misunderstood, but that is nothing new with me :D
