Modern Tropical Home Construction

The Journey Has BegunWe went to the land yesterday and it looked like they were preparing for a primitive moon launch. The house will sit on 11 pilings because the ground in central Thailand is like a swamp where a regular foundation would sink.newhomepages

In the BeginingThis is how the land looked when we bought it in January of 2011. It's a little over 200 square wa in a development of empty land plots near Safari World. It included this little one room house with a tiny bathroom, an address, electric and water already installed by the previous owner. Only one other plot was built on when we arrived, but it had been developed and quickly sold out a couple of years before.newhomepages
