The location for the future construction of a summer house or country house must be chosen carefully.
Your investment depends on this, as an unsuccessful location can lead to significant losses.
However, sometimes villagers choose a place to build a house based on various superstitions and omens. An expert of the online publication "BelNovosti", agronomist and landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh believes that sometimes it is also worth listening to ancient knowledge.
In what place would a villager definitely not build a house?
Sinister Stories
Villagers will not engage in construction on a plot of land that is associated with any strange stories. The fact is that such construction will not bring the desired result.
"Bad" places are considered to be those where there were burial sites, physical violence and other unpleasant events.
Special signs
Villagers often inspect the site for vegetation. If they notice sedge or horse sorrel, then such a place is not suitable for building a house.
Swamp or paths
Even if the swamp is (or was once) not on the site itself, but in close proximity, such a place is not used for building housing.
Also, a place near paths is considered unlucky. It is believed that for this reason, it will never be possible to achieve financial well-being.
Gates
An interesting fact is that you should not build a house where a gate was once installed. In this case, you need to retreat a few meters.
