I am well underway building a small house in my wife's village near Surin. The total area will be 240 sm. It is a pole house with lounge, kitchen and bath downstairs and bedroom and lounge/office upstairs. The upper part of the house is all timber which will be sided in a traditional Thai pattern. The lower part of the house is masonry construction with large timber shutter style windows.
We are doing the kitchen and bath counters and all the ceramic tile work starting next week.
The electrical will all be concealed within the walls. I am going to buy a 700L stainless steel tank which will be located in the back of the house along with the pump and septic tank.
Should have some more pics when I get back to Bangkok after Songkran.
