Let's face it, the cost of a smaller home makes the idea of owning a weekend getaway a real possibility.  Why spend all your hard-earned cash on summer shares, weekend B&Bs, or ski shares - when you can have your own property and start building equity at the same time?  Or, maybe you're at a point in life where you want to downsize. There's something intriguing about minimalist living.  With less space (these homes are less than 1000 square feet), you'll want to focus on streamlining your belongings and furniture. Go for a few special pieces in each room; "quality versus quantity" is your new mantra!

Since the buyer is able to literally have a house built from the ground up, that house can be customized to meet the client’s precise needs. Ever dream of having an interior balcony overlooking the living room? Just…
