Simon Dale is a family man in Wales, UK. His interest in self-sustainability and an ecological awareness led him to dig out and build his own home – one of the loveliest, warmest, and most inviting dwellings you could ever imagine – all in about $4,700!

The home is constructed from wood, stone, straw, and has a sod roof. It’s heated with a wood fireplace and has a solar panel for power. Most materials were scavenged and refurbished appliances. It’s creative, artistic, elegant, and cozy. It is, in fact, magical. See more photos below:

He was fortunate in obtaining the land for his home. The plot, a bit of a large piece, was given to him in exchange for its caretaking.

Most amazingly, the home didn’t require years of training or experience. Simon had none.

He’s not an architect. He’s not an engineer. He’s not a carpenter. He started from scratch in every sense.

The tools are fairly simple. The main concession to modernity was a chainsaw, which he used to cut down about 30 small trees.

No old growth forest fell to his family’s needs. He focused on tools that used his own energy, like shovel, chisel, and hammer.PHOTOS: Caring Father Builds Fairy Tale Home for His Family Costing Just $4,700
Here’s is how it looks on the paper!
It took him only four months to produce this lovely home
