villagefarang Posted September 10, 2013 Author Share Posted September 10, 2013 Oops, Was he a little distracted? distracted.jpg Khun Jean, Yep i guess this one fell thru the cracks. Not the only mistake that was made. I have left them as is. I tend to spend most of my time looking out or swimming in the pool so these small matters dont really get to me. There are worse ways to spend a day or night for that matter than sitting on the patio looking out at this. Still some work to be done on the inside but have moved in & garden progressing. Lots of work but we are getting there. Lovely pool area you have there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

donx Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 My wife bought a townhouse in Krabi this summer. I'll send some pictures of it when I go there next summer unless you only want pictures of pre-built houses. It is, however, a newly built home.

villagefarang Posted September 18, 2013 Author Share Posted September 18, 2013 Villagefarang, great photo & set up. Is the pond stocked ? House looks really nice. Thank you. Yes, we have some fish in there but they are more like pets than anything else. Our dog loves to swim with them and I enjoy watching them swarm around the food I feed them. Here are a couple of the bigger ones but we must have a dozen different kinds of fish in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bocceball1 Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 side angle hmm how to rotate these?You have to rotate the image before you upload it. Any photo editing software will do it, even Vista can do it (right click on your photo file, choose rotate).Here you go IMAGE_029.jpg Nice, how big is this mansion? 3 stories, underground parking, pool, seperate maids quarters, 8000 sq m... a bit bigger than we need but oh well not too bad for a wedding present of course its right next to mom and dads house WOW!!!!

A nice house, with a nice view! That looks like it is on Riepjaifang road. Passed that a few times, but never stayed. I have renewed interest to have a look around again. If it is Riepjaifang road would you mind if i ask some questions? like: Is that water swim-able? How is the air as it has (oil) industry close by? Traffic? Shopping? Movie theater, restaurants, etc?

jonnyscot Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 Thanks for pointing that out jay, although I was aware of it but didn't think it much of an issue, anyway apologies to anyone else who felt the pic was inappropriately placed,, The roof design was modified whilst I was away to work, so afraid the only venting will be from the front you see, there is an option to put a cooling system which home mart supply along the top point which hopefully should help a great deal with cooling the roof but that will be venting above the roof space, between the roof tiles and the roof foil as far as I'm aware Thanks Apologies again guys, I'll leave you to get back on topic quote name="55Jay" This ain't the construction forum but.... put a natural vent on the front and back of that high peak/attic space.

Thanks for wetting our appetite with this sneak peek. I think if you reread 55jay’s post, you will see that he was not giving you a hard time and was apologizing for offering unsolicited advice. When we have learned things through experience, it is often difficult to resist passing on our words of wisdom. It is always well intended. Hope your house ends up being what you wanted and becomes a joy to live in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonnyscot Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 Thanks VF, I did understand jays post, if my response sounded a bit on the offensive or defensive it certainly wasn't meant that way, I was simply stating the facts of what I can and can't do now since the work on the roof is already completed except for that part in the pic where the venting at the front will go so no point in changing things right now with the roof structure,I have implemented many things into the build to keep the house reasonably cool that I've learnt over the last 3 or 4 years mainly from reading the valuable info from fellow contributors of TVF in the house building forum so I certainly wouldn't knock any advice Thanks again Sent from my iPhone using Thaivisa Connect Thailand mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry JS, it was just an impulse, bit of post traumatic stress syndrome whenever I see a roof line going up. LOL. Cheers, J Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

InSiSongkram Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 We built this house in the last quarter of 2013 near the center of Udon Thani on the southern ring road. It has 3 bedrooms and 2 ½ bathrooms. The land area is 1,064 Sq.M or 266 Talang Wah and the area inside the house is 245.5 Sq.M with an open plan design throughtout the living/dining and kitchen areas. Since then we`ve had another addition to the family and need more bedrooms so I`ve put this house for sale in the classifieds here with more details. Here are some photos...

villagefarang Posted June 1, 2014 Author Share Posted June 1, 2014 I haven't contributed to this thread for quite some time and I don't typically shoot the house from this angle but we are in the process of extending the garage area and thought I would share. It seems like the house is a living being, continually growing and changing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villagefarang Posted February 15, 2015 Author Share Posted February 15, 2015 (edited) We added a new room just off the main living area so thought I would bump this thread and see if I could get someone new to post.
