SHARE THE EXPERIENCE OF BUILDING OUR BEACH HOUSE IN AFRICA!!!

the original structure (six weeks)

the end result after 9 weeks

Timber homes are not the norm in a hostile environment like Africa. Brick and mortar are usually used for constructing homes in Africa. We acquired a magical spot in Morgan Bay, Eastern Cape, South Africa to built our dream beach holiday home. We decided that it should be timber and engaged the services of the best timber construction builder in the Eastern Cape. He is from a reputable timber construction family, Villager Timber Homes.

He not only builds houses, he builds DREAMS !!

The house was constructed within 6 weeks (an absoute record for building a house in a third world environment).I would like to share the building experience and the end result with you.
