Anyone have a good lead on home plans for the cheapest, don't care how unattractive it is, home build for a 2 bedroom home? I have spent a lot of time searching and just find elaborate gabled examples of "cheap" cottages that build for $75,000 or more. I know houses aren't cheap, but we do have plenty of construction workers in the family who can provide free labor. We just need plans to follow for building, and we will have to pay someone to do electric and plumbing. We can get creative and cheap with finishing the inside, finding affordable windows and doors, etc. Just really need a good, as cheap as possible plan for solid bones. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

For background, my hippie senior mother lives in a decrepit trailer from the 60s blocks from the beach in Amelia Island, Florida. It's on a beautiful little plot of land that she won't leave. We just need to get her into a safe home, whatever the aesthetics are. No new mobile homes allowed on the property, but they do allow repairs, so we have gotten by through piecemeal shoring up parts of the trailer and that is not a long term approach.

Thanks for any advice, tips, etc!
