Re: How have you paid for your shop?

This is what I'm thinking. I can't build on the right side because that large green area to the left of my house is my septic tank/field AND there's a 100' power line easement that runs diagonally through there, and it comes within like 15' of my house.

On the left side I own +/-50' to the left. I want to offset the new shop 5' from the existing house because I have a serious slope that starts at the garage and goes up 4-5' over that 50', but even more so after 20' from the garage. There will likely be a short knee wall on that side.

The concrete drive in front of the garage *can* wait (but will likely be more cost effective to do all at once). Also, the "carport" addition is only a couple grand, (I just plan on pouring piers a few feet deep every 4' or so to anchor it down) but that too, can wait to be added. It will have a dirt floor.
