Blueprint

The first version of the blueprint. About half of the house is one floor, the bedrooms are raised as a second floor with mostly open areas below (laundry and outdoor relax area). I guess there will be some small changes here and there during the building process, but in general this is the house. Even if it looks like that, we will not have any cars under the bedroom.

Community water

Perfect timing. The community have started to dig and mount water pipes right outside my fence, so I will get water from both the well and the community = no future water problems!
