Yep, single level house with wooden floor, mounted on piles. Typical
old character -style construction of houses here. I should have
talked to the operator a bit more to see how the control system
really worked. I was impressed by how effortlessly it could
raise/lower/tilt, and also how quietly it did it.

Most of the obstacles would be in the city, less out on the country
roads I imagine. Cost NZ$30,000 to relocate, which would include re-
assembling of all the pieces at the other end, putting it on new
piles, getting it facing the right way etc.
