Wow there are some very beautiful houses up here! I don't know if I'll even compare but I'll try anyway.
This is my first time building a house like this. I'm not the best at building anything besides boxes on flat ground. I also am a much more modern/chic/minimalistic with my decorating too, so this was a build that was waaay outside my comfort zone. I think it turned out pretty ok. It's a two bedroom, two bathroom home, with an awesome view of the Sunset Valley Light House.

and the view from the window by the kitchen.
It was a long and daunting process that almost made me cry, but I managed to complete it. I feel so proud of myself.
