La que muestran en las fotos todas tienen patio central y son cuadradas..La casa de mis abuelos es rectangular con su patio central ..Pero ademas cuenta con patio al fondo y a los dos costados de la casa...él lado derecho tiene un portón hacia a la calle...La casa tiene buena iluminación natural por todos los lados, pisos hidráulicos y la altura de los techos pasa de los 7 metros...

This misses the affordable mark. Single story integral thermal structures without import speciality tiles would bring down costs. It is possible to get the same feel & look with more affordable materials...just saying.
