The registered building in Gömeç's Karaağaç District lends the village a good deal of character. It is largely sound, with cracks in only a few places. The bathhouse beside it is sturdier but carries later additions that are not original.
The building will become an art house where painters and writers can stay. Because overnight accommodation is planned, some additions to the registered structure were judged necessary.
The restoration design and the structural, electrical and mechanical designs were prepared, and repair of the timber roof is being carried out. All plaster on the bathhouse will be stripped; if cracks show up afterwards, a strengthening design will be prepared and submitted to the Board.
The roof is currently covered in Marseille-pattern tiles. A survey of the village showed that most registered buildings there have traditional curved (alaturka) tiles, and the garden walls also show traces of them. New interventions in the building and the restoration of the garden are planned.
