Building Michael’s House
The start of the house began in 2003 with the building of the beautiful wooden fence in the Hungarian style. The house itself began at the end of the summer with the laying of the foundation. The next year, fall of 2004, actual construction was started and finished in 2 months. Here you can see the progress of the fence and then the house. Click on the small photo for a larger version.
