Building an house ... long task !

Olive · 20-03-2013, 02:40 PM

I am living in an old house today. It is a former tramway station but … of course my wife wants more (like every girls )
I made some plans, here is what should be the final result :

Garage side :

For the moment it is not exactly looks the same : 10 cm of earth and ... only rocks

I will try to add some pics as often as possible.

End of work plan to be in 1 year minimum it will let some time to share the news.

The proposed elevations look good, but needs a floor plan. The size of the garage, it could be a holiday let

I bet your neighbours just love you with that breaker, cracking away at the rock - headache time

Costly, however on the positive side good foundation base.

True, the house will not move at all ... when it will be done

!
My neighbours are cool. And surprising, it does not made so much noise

After spending 2 years having our house extended / re-built i just wish you good luck and enjoy it.

Thx. I am sure that this road will be long and hard...and expensive also.
We will see.

Hole is finish now. They start to place the garage and open the way for the car access on the field.
