Chapter 3: Lot Preperation & Seawall
Can you see the house in the pink stakes? It can be confusing so we paint the outline on the ground.
A blank empty lot isn’t very exciting, I know.
But it is important to take note of how a lot looks before we start.
Alot of work has been done just to create a buildable lot.
The fact that it is a blank lot is exactly what makes it difficult.
We can place the home anywhere, to an extent.
Without many marks setting a home precisly can be tricky.
We had about one foot to spare between the front and back setback lines.
If you miss them the township can tell you to tear down the protion of your home that is over the setback line.
That will force you to get it right the first time!
The transformation will be incredeble!
