Passed Final Inspection

[westczek]

I passed my final inspection today on a modified version of the 20x30 1-1/2 story cabin. My father and I started building in January of last year. We did everything from the mudsill to the roof sheathing. First time building a house.

The house is 20x36 ft with 12 ft walls. Standard balloon frame. The kitchen and staircase was swapped for larger code compliant staircase. It has a utility room for washer and dryer with a back door.

Building in Shenandoah County Virginia.

Congrats!

Great looking place. The 12 foot walls look like the way to go for 2nd story head room!

[westczek]

Thanks. The 12 ft walls give us 15 ft across with 5 ft knee walls and over 9 ft at the collar ties.
