Selecting a plan

Thanks for the good advice. I felt overwhelmed by the sheer volume of house plans available when my partner and I were looking for our first home. I had a basic idea of what I wanted and I had to learn how to disregard unsuitable plans pretty quickly. I had my heart set on a pavillion design. I loved the idea of a total separation between living and sleeping areas with a breezeway between, but in the end our budget couldn't stretch that far. We ended up with a fairly basic design but it ended up working well. I still look at pavillion designs from time to time and dream...

Pavillions and extra walls
by: Editor

It's interesting how we can reduce our choices to the basics, even with the excellent paviliion designs out there. I looked at 'Bush and Beach' kits and drooled over them for weeks but they were a lot dearer because you have to build more outside walls, more gutters, windows etc. Still they are a great alternative kit with fantastic curb appeal and functionality.
Brenda, come back and tell us about your kit building experience some time.
