That is an awesome house and what a fantastic view. Downside, I would hate to try and grow my food up there. Bet that would be tough.

It may be politically incorrect, but I like my large home. I feel you can a larger sq. ft. house and still be environmentally responsible.

I will take the first one you can have the second one.

We are looking at building several tiny homes on our property with one being the main house for cooking and meetings. The first one, the main one, hopefully will be up this summer and then one each year for the next couple of years.

Pretty sweet set up, and incredible workmanship, both inside and out. I am not too sure how 'practical' it is, having to go for a jug of milk by snowmobile, down a mountain. Or more accurately... needing one to get back up. Pretty tough to snowboard up.

Hand crank little lift system?

i second this motion. give me my 2550 sq.ft. any day. little houses are cool/neat, but for other people to enjoy.

Eh, i think there is a balance. After my mother died my father remarried to a widow and neither of them wanted a house with memories tied to it so they built a brand new one that is WAY TOO DAMN BIG for the two of them. This thing is 3 stories including a basement with 3 car garage and all sorts of other bullshit rooms. It's like they decided to plan on all 5 of their children and grandchildren returning to live with them. Not sure of the square footage but it's just stupid.

I like the house I am renting now. 3 bedroom 2 bath, a living room and full kitchen with laundry in the kitchen. The only thing I would add is a decent size garage and a bit bigger kitchen. This is almost perfect sized for my family.

My house is just over 1000 sq feet. Will be plenty big enough once all the kids are gone.

[Sniper-T]

no kids... 1000ish sf house plenty big for us... ok for a visiting couple, tight-ish for a visiting couple with kids! SHTF... mattresses and sleeping bags hit the floor. Welcome aboard to those invited! Stay the hell out of my room!
