so I guess from the questions of room-height it seems to be ok.maybe somebody can also give me their advice or interpretation on this: the estate agent wrote to me, saying: "...Kitchen , living room, two bedrooms and a bathroom are ok (habitable) ; former barn , local clearing and warehouses are to be restored .The roof it's ok but is better to renovated."Does this translate into: the roof has to be replaced?

alan - thanks for your answer too. so it´ll be fine. the cascinale in question has 4 habitable rooms with 2,40 height - but then also the fienile... with 4-5meters height. at some stage we probably want to convert those rooms - so hight wont be a problem there.

thank you for your reply, modicasa.thats what I thought/hoped too. I am just wondering, what the consequences could be.for example, would we be allowed to rent it out?
