How I built my hobbit house for just £3,000 armed only with a chisel and hammer

Fed up with huge mortgage payments, one family decided to take matters literally into their own hands and build their home from scratch.

Armed only with a chisel, chainsaw and hammer Simon Dale moved his family to a hillside in Wales and started digging.

The result is a fully sustainable house constructed in just four months, for an astonishing £3,000, using scrap wood for floors and diverting water from a nearby spring.

Wow

This fucking rules

Oh man… this brings in to question my long standing idea of living in an old church. Maybe something cool like carving into a cliff face, The problem being regulations I can’t see them just allowing you to build a house of any design, even if you do own the land.

This is awesome.. especially because he had no real experience just an idea and determination.
