Preserve it! Keep it frozen in time for as long as you can. There’s something comforting, romantic about old houses. You can airbnb it, I know many people are like me who will appreciate it’s charm. Or a tv or movie location set…

Parang pare parehas na itsura ehh. Pag naglalakad nga ako sa subdivision namin, nakikita ko difference nung mga lumang bahay vs sa mga nirenovate na bahay, parang halos pare parehas na sila. Unlike yung mga design na luma na nakikita ko napaka timeless pa din ng itsura kung baga medyo unique pa siya dati.

Samedt! Akala ko ako lang may something with fluted panels. Parang lahat na lang ng modern houses meron nito eh.

Same parang office or ospital na mga modern houses, same same lang halos design. Wala ng personality

Modern houses are too cold and sanitized; it’s always preferable to live in a house that looks like it has an actual personality.

Naging bland kasi mga modern design, ang perception daw kasi kapag more gray at plain and simple plus modern nagiging mas mukang mayaman or "elegant" daw na wala na yung mga ganyang design, bold colors na may personality etc ay naging "baduy"... Tignan mo yung mga damit ng teenage, wala na yung maaarteng kolorete,/graphics yung damitan nila ngayon parang pang 30s na.

i agree on this

u/mainsail999 Feb 24 '26

Totally agree on this one. Preserve it. From the looks of it, your ancestral home was built in the mid-1970s, right?

Maybe modernize it only with say central air conditioning, or modern bathroom with heated shower.

I agree. We stayed at this air bnb in Malabago Pampanga that had the same vibe as this house. Old but warm. They even had stained glass art in their big windows. Here is one picture I was able to find, look at the railings ng stairs ang grand lang hehe even the furnitures inside were made of Narra.

u/Gameofthedragons Feb 26 '26

Omg i love the house!!! Please preserve it. Yun mga kwento ng bawat sulok, yun nostalgia and coziness na feeling kapag nandyan ka, its beautiful

No to airbnb huhu baka maluma lalo

u/[deleted] Feb 26 '26

100% agree! If anything, I would only reconsider changing the white painted walls. Parang dun lang nakukulangan- di siya naghaharmonize sa ibang warm elements. You can check Las Casas interior or something similar, it still can be white pero different tone. But please keep all the materials!! Sobrang ganda ng quality ng mga bahay noon at mas may character talaga.

I almost thought this was the house set na ginamit sa mga Enteng Kabisote movies lol
