The Lot Layout
The first set of Blacktail homes is located on Railroad Street, which like most streets in Dillon, runs at a diagonal to a north/south line. The lot lines for the first three houses have been adjusted to make room for all three houses to have the wide part of the house facing due south. This layout allows the wide part of the houses to be exposed to the sun in winter and to the shade in summer.

More than one prospective buyer has said: "I would buy this home if it had a garage!". Accordingly, we have come to an agreement with the adjoining property owner to acquire a sufficient amount of that property to build a 20x24 ft detatched garage. This additional property is a strip 25' wide on the North-East border of Home 3A - Address is 619 N Railroad Street between Railroad Street and the alley behind. The addition to the 619 N Railroad Street lot would be 25x115 feet leaving a nice additional space for the homeowner to enjoy. A garden, or possibly some chickens, come to mind. Of course a larger garage would cost more, but for a buyer with a need for such and the ability to finance it, we would comply with those needs.
We have also contracted with the home builder to construct that garage, and we are ready to proceed as soon as we have a signed home purchase agreement in hand. Price: an additional $25,000, including the additional land.
