As Principal Mayor Bajnik of Ivic in Slavikova says "with a bungalow, a skoda and a stack of logs, a man is czar of his own goatfarm".
Dapol C021 Bungalow
I found a great Alcovian residence in the form of this cheap but effective Dapol Bungalow (#021). I bought one on Ebay and it arrived this morning. A gem! Take out that picture window, add a few shutters, a logpile, a catslide extension to regionalise and ring the changes, and I think a couple could make a very nice Alcovian village when mixed with MiniArt's East European Farm.

Leave it as it and it cold work well enough as a home in the suburbs.
@ Mark You Do live there? Ah. Your from the North East Coast of Scotland. A nice little town just outside Aberdeen I bet, full of oil-rig workers and host to a leg of the Highland games once a year. A Haven, you could say.
Am I right?
Nice one. How does it scale up against the 20mm figs?

P.S. What's a catslide extension?
LOL! Further south Brian! A wee model village known for it's industriousness.

Funny thing about those Brit-isms is that I can usually guess at them with some accuracy. A catslide, ended up being exactly what I thought it would be.
It helps that we had some outbuildings with a similar construction and I more than once watched my cats slide down them as well as squirrels, racoons, and even a crow who seemed to be having far too much fun at it (he kept flying back to the top and going down again).

Wish we had Racoons. Maybe Alcovia does. Like the Coyu, they escaped from a fur farm and set up colonies in the Shizlak Woods and started spreading from there.
