Here are some cool inspirations and a very wonderful community in the making:

Here is our Methusald inspired design:

And a few renderings of the Butterfly Cottage:

The top picture in the post above is called the Thatcher's Cottage. My wife and I are about to buy it and we are scared to death. It is way out of our comfort zone. But life is a journey and I think we can make this work. We will be the first residents (other than the developer) in this community. We need your good thoughts and blessings this week.

Thanks for posting the beautiful pictures! Even if they're not real, they're rendered so well that you can see that that real thing will be even more picturesque! Good luck in your new home, and I hope that things work out. Even if it's somewhat out of your comfort zone, there are so many intangible benefits to a home you enjoy that can't be valued accurately.

The top picture is real. and we are still struggling with the purchase. Seems the "jumbo" loan market is turned on its head this last week, and although our offer to purchase has been accepted, the banks are in a turmoil. More next week.

Funny, but I have faith, it will all work out...... Smile

Well, it is still happening, although I have begun to lose hope.....
In the meantime, the City of Bend has granted permits for The Swordsman
