This research report presents an architectural and historical assessment of the Haxhi Alushi House, a historic residential building located in Kavaja, Albania.

It includes architectural documentation, measured drawings, photographic records, geometric and photogrammetric survey, and an assessment of visible pathologies and deterioration. Based on the collected documentation and analysis, the report outlines conservation and restoration proposals, together with recommendations for the building's future reactivation and sustainable management.
