Portland House Projects
 

The current path is made of these pavers made from  recycled ​rubber tires. The work great in a flat, rectangular area. They do not work so well here. We would like to replace them with actual pavers.

Same here.

​

This is photo form the Internet. It is an example of what we would like at the top of our stairs.

We would like to add handrails on both sides of these steps. Maybe we would like to add some sort of gate or archway at the top of the steps. Maybe something that vines could grow on. Existing stone pavers along the curb are shown.

Photo is coming. I have tutoring students coming to my home office after dark. I am presently using these inexpensive solar powered red lights. they work OK. They are very easy to kick and break. They run out of electricity before my last student. Perhaps we could add something hardwired and stronger?

This is a photo from the neighborhood as an example. We would like a similar structure in front of the Tiny House to (a) Hold bins; (b) Shield the Tiny House; (c) Maybe hold solar panels; (d) Maybe have a green living roof.

The main bathroom has a huge clawfoot bathtub. We have since added a shower. The back bathroom has a shower, no bath.

Lots of quirky touches like the locally made octopus coat rack.

I did a little test where I dug a trench next to the driveway and filled it with river rocks. Perhaps this is the solution in the left side. The right side might be trickier.

The pavement on our current driveway is about 8 feet wide. It is hard to get in and out of the car. It is hard too not track mud into the house. See next two photos for ideas.

The view from the balcony is breathtaking!
