Villa Nordhøi is a Swiss-style villa built in 1891 in the historic section of Eidsvoll, Norway. It was built by the local shoe maker and remained in the same family until we purchased it in January 2007. The structure of the building is log-cabin framing with siding inside and out.

Application Sent to Preservation Department

We have sent an application to the preservation department (Akershus fylkeskommune) to see if our plans meet the strict requirements for preserving the cultural landscape. With about 60 pages of forms, photos, and diagrams, we are hopeful that they have all the information they need...and hope that we get approval.

If we get approval there, then we can apply to the local town for the building permit. We had a pre-application conference, though, and basically as long as the perservation department says it is OK, the town will say OK.
