After a lot of delay, we finally have the plan for the red cabin elevation and renovation project.

The front of it will be elevated four feet above dirt level, and the lot will slope up towards the back so the back door lets out onto dirt. I was afraid the whole thing was going to look like it was perched on a the four-foot foundation, and every door was going to require a staircase, and we'd be wanting to put a big deck around the house so we could spend time outdoors without going up and down steps.

Like this.



Eventually we will put a larger front porch on it, but as designed it will be the same size as the old porch so we can sit in lounge chairs on either side of the door and watch the hummingbirds.
