So we are going back and forth with what to build on our property.
I am looking at living in a RV full time, and while a lot of people do that; I just don't think it's for me ... I like my space (especially in the kitchen) and love to cook, which isn't super feasible in an RV.
I am tossing around the idea of building a smaller place so that we can move in quicker, it's cheaper, we can do it with cash and have no payments. Then if we decide, we can always build a bigger place. The sticker is my hubby is quite a bit older than me, so the reality of building a bigger place is that it probably wouldn't happen.
We are also going off grid, so it would be easier to heat, less electricity, etc. The more I think about it, I am in favor of this idea. We are planning on building a large shop, summer kitchen, chicken coop, greenhouse, and digging a root cellar down on the side of one of the hills. So I wouldn't need a huge pantry. We are also about to become empty nesters and the more I think about it, I would rather subsidize my kids apartments then have them move back in. I'm also thinking people don't need to necessarily stay with us in the house... they can always camp on the property or bring their RV (as we will have hookups).... mainly thinking of grandkids. Thoughts? Pros/cons I am not thinking of?
This is the place I am leaning toward now. I'm just having such a hard time making up my mind. I think this will be a fairly straightforward build.
