Want to get this up and tight to the weather, so this would involve:

1) Framing including interior partitions, pop the windows in, etc.
2) Chimneys - heat and wood stove (will probably go with triple insulated stainless)
3) Roofing
4) Siding (am going to use a nice Vinyl that looks like shakes)

Mulling over what to use for heat. There may only be one chimney. Depends. I like heat pumps, but don't like the ever increasing cost of electricity.

Like LP - nice and clean, and very efficient, but LP is expensive.

Which leaves oil. Still thinking about that..but will know soon.

Anyway, any recommendations would be welcome. If you are a contractor and are interested, also please contact me. This is in Tuftonboro.

Thanks and Regards, Steve

As you said LP is a little expensive but I found much more clean and efficient than oil or electric in the end you will save money with LP
