I wonder if insurance (assuming you can get it) will consider all those 'hand sawn by my husband' boards when considering replacement cost, given the house is built on a river. Enjoy worrying every time it rains more than an inch in your FEMA AE 10/10 flood risk million dollar shack.

Finish work seems well done if not to my taste, so it's possible the stuff inside the walls isn't a nightmare. It would make for a great week long rental on airbnb, but that's probably my limit.

Townsend is near the Great Smoky Mountains, and near Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge and Dollywood, not far from Knoxville. Lots of vacation rentals in that area.

 Logically, my brain says this is just like the end of a hallway with a weird choice to put a chair there. But my heart wants it to be some kind of crazy barn-door-airlock you have to pass through to get to that toilet.

using those slidey barn doors for bathrooms is so funny to me. why yes, one of the things I definitely need in my house design is a big visible gap in the door between me and whoever's on the shitter

The chair is there because it takes up to an hour for the airlock to cycle once you’re inside.

I found this house in the Oak Cliff area of Dallas about 10 years ago. It’s got all of the standard massing of a typical McMansion as you will see... But as we drive around to the side of the house something magical happens!   I like to imagine the owner seeing a listing for the lot priced at $1.50 or whatever and developing this cunning 12’ stilt strategy.

I remember watching carpenter bees burrow a hole into posts in south texas. They were the only bees I liked as a kid because I heard they don't sting at all, but idk if that's true.

Here's another cool conjoined twin house (or 2.5 if you count the enclosed breezeway to the garage) https://www.realtor.com/realestateandhomes-detail/912-Rolandvue-Rd_Baltimore_MD_21204_M66004-43288#photo0 My favorite parts are the atrium between the houses, and the super funky greenhouse attached to the front of the house.

I'm really trying to figure out what they are trying to accomplish here. That machine has a backhoe boom joint on it, so they could absolutely keep digging that trench with the machine sitting next to it. Getting on/crossing that trench should be no problem at all for that machine with even a halfway competent and not-totally-blackout-drunk operator........
