Wow, this is brilliant!
I've always been wondering where can I find a Robin Masters type person who needs my services as a translator and lets me stay in his house????

$69 for a guesthouse sketch?

I could see the price if you were actually going to build a guest house replica, However they don't let you blow up the photos large enough to see how accurate they are.
I'm just sitting here wondering how much it would cost to build.

Correct me if I'm wrong, guys, but I think Thomas' closet is in the wrong place. Is it just me?
...and that, as they say, is the hell of it.

I meant the bedroom closet. My bad. I thought it was at the foot of his bed and not to the left of his chest of drawers.
...and that, as they say, is the hell of it.

It depends on the size. For example, the house used in The Cosby Show goes for twice as much.

True. You could use a scale ruler and make it fit whatever space you have, but this is really a novelty rather than an actual architectural blueprint.

If I had the cash I'd turn it into a reality. Having a beach house like Tm's guest house would be the ultimate.

Indeed!!! We can all dream!
Had a funny MAGNUM moment today. A friend was telling me about another friend of his who has moved to Hawaii and he said: "Oh and Friend X has a guest house over there". And I said, "Oh, is she renting a guest house?" and he said... wait for it....
"No, she's the "Higgins". I didn't know that my friend was into Magnum too!!!! LOL!!!
