Former Barn in Belgium

Off to Belgium we go today, my friends! This 18th century house, located in Wallonia, near Namur, in Belgium, used to be a barn. Jean-Pierre and Mireille Delaby gave it new life.

  1. Kifus,
    What an interesting home. I enjoyed their collections and the way they have everything displayed. The grounds look beautiful and it appears they work hard on the details. I've always wanted to visit Belgium, thanks in part to Agatha Christie's Poirot.

  9. What a stunning home, Kifus! Not so keen about the pink drapes but the rest is amazing. The vignette with the flowers on the console is a dream!
