I designed, drafted and personally built the first home in 1992 - a 3,000 square foot, 5-bedroom, 2-1/2 story cedar-sided Colonial with finished basement which is our residence in Worthington .  With one full-time helper and one part-timer I started with the sewer tap and footings, continued with the framing, roofing, siding, electric, HVAC, plumbing, interior and exterior trim and paint. The block foundation and drywall was subcontracted.
