Thread: Building a house extention

Hi, I don’t post much on Teakdoor mostly because I have a very full time job at which keeps me very busy.
I’m living in China at present, but next year I will retire and then live in Thailand most of the time.
Last year I bought a house in Putaluang, not far from Ban Chang. It’s has three bedrooms two bathrooms, Kitchen and living room.
The house sits on one Rai land, half of which is laid to lawn around the house. The other half is just jungle with a fish pond.
I plan to extend the house by adding three bedrooms and a swimming pool.
I also plan to make two of the original bedrooms into one with dressing room and ensuite bathroom.
For the other half of the land I plan to build a Thai style annex with two bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms.
I hope to do this before I retire next year so all this is still in the planning stage.

Like I said I don’t post much on Teakdoor, but I read most of the construction threads and realize there are a lot of Teakdoor members with a lot of experience and knowledge for house building and designs.

I have drawn some plans and impressions which I will attempt to post and would like your feedback and also your great ideas.
Also an idea on cost would be appreciated.
