One of my new Facebook readers shared this with me. It’s the story of a gal named Heather and her adventure building her own 14′ by 24′ home. She’s posted many photos of the process including this one of her after a day of playing with plaster.
I really like the simple design of this small house. In fact it looks similar to the 12×24 house I designed. Kathi’s house is 12×20 and has 12-foot walls. Back in 2007 it took 11 days and cost $8,000 to complete the basic enclosed structure. This home is located in Georgia.
