Building this simple hale cottage
#2
well from the pics, no it is not permitted, nor could be. look at the 2x4 rafters and spacing just for starters. earthquake ties? nope.. i actually think you are allowed an outdoor bathroom as long as hooked up to a permitted septic system. but maybe that has changed. but it also depends on where you are building, cc&rs and minimum square footage. lumber for my 760ish sq footer was around 12K few years back (lumber only) but codes have changed since then. if you are gonna build something, it is worth it to go to a lumber yard (HPM, argus, honsor) not home depot. at HD a 10 footer is exactly 10 ft. at a lumber yard you usually get at least an inch, sometimes 2 or 3 and sometimes that saves your board from becoming scrap.. just a suggestion.
