Takes a few days to set it up.
Even good enough Eco-Moon.
He should put his on a hill.
Owners must pay a £4.95 home delivery charge, as the cabin is a little too bulky for store pick-up.
Classic: The living area with underfloor heating
Out of the bokx: The trendy terrace
Airy: An office room leads through to an adjoining light space with glass doors

Of course you would as well as needing a ruddy big garden to start with. This, at most, will serve as a summerhouse or maybe a teenage hideaway ... |

I think you`d need planning permission to have one in your garden. And connecting it up to `essential` utilities, etc.... |

So how much do you reckon the whole thing would REALLY cost an individual? (not forgetting the fiver for delivery!) The Land, the Planning Permission, the labour for erection /connection to services and I don`t know what else...presumably the £13 thou (& £5 delivery fee) has to be paid up front, as would all the other costs as they arose. This doesn`t sound to me much like a `poor` person`s option... |

I'd pay a professional to do it. |

I would stick with brick.
Oh yea because houses made with bricks are immune from fire aren't they 
I think it looks quite nice. There are Swedish firms that make log cabins a bit like this, but a little larger. One of those would do me a treat.

With the Population going up fast
and Housing so short,
these Eco Homes could be built on old MOD land
so the Out Going New Labour Warmonger party
should buy 5,000 of them and set them up with a modified
outside Brick , in addition,
then many of the poor young folks could then buy
for Cash.

Of course you would
but this new Deal
is for anyone with the permitted land
and anyone can set it up.
