The idea would have been laughable, absurd, the kind of thing that only a madman would believe. But look at the castle now.
The small castle was now picturesque!
The exterior had been completely transformed. The walls, which had once been cracked and stained, were now smooth and clean.
Fresh mortar filled the gaps between the stones, giving the structure a solid, unified appearance. The windows, which had once been dark and empty, were now framed with new stonework, their sills clean and straight.
The roof, which had once been sagging and leaky, was now covered in new tiles, their colors warm and inviting.
The design under the windows, the decorative stonework that had once been worn and faded, had been restored to its former glory.
