Looks like we are going to be the general contractor for my Inlaws new home. We are going to give them two acres to build a two bedroom, 1 1/2 bath home with a partial basement.
The home most likely will be 2 by 6 walls, possible metal roof and a two car garage built next to it with a breeze way.
It will have a wood stove/ fireplace , a few circuits wired for a generator ( twist lock plug ) and a few passive solar features. The interior will be open with vaulted ceilings. We are having the propane/ all electric debate at the moment. The full bath will have handicapped features since they are both in thier 80's. It will share our well and be on a new septic system.
What other features would you add? I have others, but I also have a budget to live with.
Be creative! The plans are not finalized. We have to get the septic approved before we do anything else.
