Hello!
I'm renovating at home. Now I'm considering which walls are load-bearing. I think I know which ones they are, but I'd still like to hear from you experts out there. The reason I'm asking is because I'm planning to tear down walls between the hallway and living room as well as between the hallway and kitchen on the first floor, the bathroom on that floor is already demolished so only the wall between the hallway and the kitchen remains.
Attaching some drawings. The house was built in 1942 and has plank walls.
Thanks in advance

Thank you.
Yes, I believe that too. But I had a carpenter here the other day who said the wall towards the kitchen was load-bearing but was more uncertain about the wall towards the living room. Half of that wall goes freely from floor 1 up to the attic (big staircase there). He thought there was no weight on it. Attaching some pictures of what I/he means...
