Finding the Spot

When looking for a spot to build a house, there are a few things to consider - from my perspective.

  1. How many neighbors do I have around me? If I put the house here will my neighbors have a perfect line of sight to the corners of my house? e.g. do i have privacy?
  2. how close is the house to the nearest power pole? Is it going to be difficult to run electricity to the house? or costly?
  3. How close is the water meter from this location? How difficult will it be to dig a trench from meter to home?
  4. where will the nearest garden be relative to the house location?
  5. Whats the shading like? will there be a lot of natural shade?
