I lived in my last home for 30 years and loved every moment of it, but it was time to move on. I lived in a small tent while building my forever home. Was that ever an adventure, lol.
One thing that I made sure to do, was build my house as if I were handicapped. The doors are all 36" wide, no steps, easy open door handles. Who knows what the future holds. All I know is if I ever end up in a wheel chair, I wanted my home as friendly to that as possible.
Sounds like an exciting adventure for sure and we're also making sure it's built for us if we need all of those extras to make life a little bit more comfy in our old age.
