The lot at our summer cottage is 25 feet wide. TWENTY FIVE. So a skinny house is what we built, and it's darn near what you've shown and described. Swing by and we'll have a lemonade. :)ellesquarehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05491549265393670616noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6589545141532966981.post-14163721868616880182009-11-12T18:09:01.590-05:002009-11-12T18:09:01.590-05:00Your "modest" house of the moment look a...Your "modest" house of the moment look alot like the townhouses in the UK - very compact!

My father in law is a contractor and he sets aside the hard copies of his old floor plans for me so I can just "play house" as he calls it. The ones I like most are much like the one you pictured: just enough space to be comfortable, and always with a little office/sewing room. I always feel so guilty for spending time studying them instead of being productive, but it is nice to keep the dream alive that someday we might have our own home.lindsayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16318882927750391901noreply@blogger.com
