Bunkhouse in Alton (on Rattlesnake)?

A washer/dryer would be icing on the cake, if I can put them in the new building.

The bunkhouse thing is mostly for future planning. If I can do it - great. If not, no big deal because we do have sufficient space in the cottage - particularly if I'm not using up one room with my "stuff"

Great, but what you are describing is not a shed, it is a structure and will defiantly need a permit and will be questioned when they come around for the revaluations every 5 years and sometimes more often.

Oh yes, I would absolutely pull a permit. I want to keep everything legal, for sure! I met with the building inspector last year about an addition. He seemed very reasonable and also very knowledgeable and helpful.

This also requires a permit from the State, because it's within 250 feet of the water.
