Idea for a new residential house called "a shotgun shack"

I have an interesting idea for a new building, a "Shotgun Shack". This would be a 1x1 building residential building. An example of this building is in this picture located this link (it actually is the birthplace of Elvis Presley). https://media-cdn.tripadvisor.com/media/photo-s/01/6b/05/d9/elvis-presley-birth-house.jpg

A shotgun shack was a popular building in the South in the late 1800's and early 1900's particularly around the Mississippi Delta ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mississippi_Delta ). They were build for sharecroppers and in some cities like New Orleans. While some are decerped, there are others that do have a strong quaint charm. In the 1980's, a band named "The Talking Heads" mentioned this building in a song "Once in a lifetime" with the introductory lyrics "You may find yourself living in a shotgun shack".

most dont know it has nothing to do with weapons and violence not until they look at the building and the description

I have renamed this thread to try to clarify any confusion. It was a good design for it's time when there was no electricity, no refrigeration, no automobiles, no TV's, and no radios. Some shotgun shacks are preserved to provide a historical feel for a community and a even a modern version may be a good house for a single person or married couple starting out. The building is part of my mental picture of the US South.

It does have some quaint features such as the iconic porch swing or rocking chair.
