While the price of real estate is high, the English farmer decided to follow the alternative path and instead of buying or ordering a house construction, he decided to make it himself. . Roofing felts on the eve of the film "", Toli impressed by the first film from this series "", Toli is simply from love for John Ronald Ruel Tolkien, 59-year-old Mile Buck built a small, cozy house on the territory of his garden in Oxfordshire for only 150 pounds (about 8,000 rubles).

In fairness, it is worth saying that Michael’s house turned out to be more than summer, unclear, and next to it is the main house where the farmer lives. Nevertheless, a high -quality hobbitan house is quite suitable for living in the warm season. Former drawing teacher, Mr. Buck, spent two years, collecting secondary materials for construction. Since the house turned out to be the summer, he did not have to hold any approvals. And he built the house with his bare hands and in just eight months.

For construction, a building material called KOB (Cobb) was used. He studied the technique of building a house from Koba according to the book. The Kob itself is a mixture of clay, sand, straw, water and earth. COB, by the way, is refractory, resistant to seismic activity and most importantly, cheap material. With its help, artistic and sculptural forms have been erected and in recent years it is used in construction, as eco material. . The adhesive base is mixed with sand, straw and water, and then placed on a stone foundation. .

For a house with an area of ​​300 square feet, the tank took the floorboards that his neighbor did not use it. He took out the windshield from the old truck and used it for windows. The walls are painted with a mixture of chalk and plant resin. The roof is a simple wooden frame covered with straw from nearby fields.

The tank did not plan to spend money on construction in general, but I still had to buy something. For example, I had to buy a little straw, as well as nails and several other details. As a result, according to Mile, 150 pounds came out.

There is no electricity, water supply or gas in the house. But you can live in a house because there is an alternative. . The wood stove is used for cooking. Candles and lanterns provide light.

A well located near the house is used to store products. The house has a component toilet in a separate straw toilet with a view of the countryside. Outside the window is a bath where you can swim.

In fact, Michael Buck wanted to prove that you can build a house yourself. And it is only important to acquire the land. He also wanted to express the idea that instead of a lifelong payment of a mortgage for an apartment or house, a person can do small. And also, the tank expressed the idea that he created a house that fits into the landscape, and does not invade it. The house, according to him, can stand forever, with proper care and maintenance.

In our country, everything can be like a tank. But since we still have cold winters, it is worth getting more durable insulation. If you have land and you want to order the construction of a house, then you can contact the company of Panorama a house that is engaged in suburban construction.
