The hustle and bustle of the city can be appealing for those who love a fast-paced lifestyle. Accessibility, events and endless opportunities for entertainment are all appealing aspects of city life and they can be hard to turn down.
But for introverts and adventurers, the city or suburbs may not be the ideal spot for long-term living. With access to remote work jobs, many individuals and families have chosen to walk the path less travelled and purchase property in remote and scenic locations. Those who are bringing back a homestead lifestyle, who would rather live a more secluded off-grid dream – don’t despair – we have home designs to appeal to your unique lifestyle needs.
