School may be out, but cheap architecturally designed houses are in.
For $25,000 you can own one of 19 former Kenmure Intermediate buildings - designed by Ted McCoy, of firm McCoy and Wixon.

The relocatable buildings need to be removed from the Kaikorai Valley Rd site by mid-2015, and would make ideal homes, Rodney Hogg says.
And he should know.
Mr Hogg and wife Carolyn bought the former school, which was closed in 1996, from Ngai Tahu in 2002.
Initially, they only wanted to lease the school field for their tree nursery business, but ''we got a very good deal''.
The deal even included a potter's kiln, all the books still left in the former library and a jungle gym, and just the other day he found a toy plane in the metalwork room.
''You are always finding something.''
The couple have lived in the homecraft room for the past decade.
Like the other buildings, it features turret windows, off an inner courtyard.
''We just love it ... [We] go to sleep seeing the stars and moon.''
The couple had leased most of the buildings while using others for storage, but now it was time to graduate from the intermediate and build a new home.
Mr Hogg said it could cost between $6000 and $12,000 to relocate each building within Dunedin.
They would be cost-effective options for those wanting a cheap home, workshop or holiday home, he said.
