It will take time to sink in, great detailing by the way, reminds me of houses we visited bike trekking across Norway a few years ago. With a panoramic backdrop dominated by nature, framed by window views inside the house.
A blessing to live lightly on this earth, on your own terms… many joyous moments await, once you move in and start living within the landscape, a home for all seasons to reflect and celebrate your achievement..
Much admiration, keep us posted.

Those are some really thoughtful words and beautifully articulated, so much so that I read them to my partner this morning and she welled up a little, thank you.
@JurekB That is exactly the spirit in which we intend to live, trying to limit our consumption and engaging with the land and the annual patterns in a way that works with them rather than at odds with. I know managing the off grid system will be a learning process but am also really looking forward to the points where we don’t have enough power and instant gratification and everything always just isn’t an option.
Came back to the cladding on that gable finished off and the scaffolding dropped on the north side so imagine they’ll be starting that today. I honestly couldn’t be happier with the cladding choice.

That’s really kind of you, thank you! I’ve done cash in hand labour and landscaping and things before for fancy folk so it still feels like I’ll be handing this over to someone when the work is finished. Reckon it will take a good few months of being in there to truly believe it’s ours and not some kind of long let air bnb we’ve stumbled upon!
Working over on the mainland today and just waiting for the boat home, hoping for more of that gable end being clad when I get back.
