    Aah I love it so much. And I love that it’s unique looking, not a cookie cutter tiny house. I also really appreciated the emphasis on “we have everything we need” :)

    EDIT:
    I'm rewatching this a few weeks later and just wanted to add, right now I'd just be so happy to live somewhere that I don't have to run the A/C 24/7 for 8 months out of the year. Where it actually gets cold! Last "winter" it never even got cool enough for a hoodie, like what she's wearing in this video.

    It's basically the large kitchen and 3 bedrooms. And it's basically what you need in your life. My dad grow up like this. Different layout but same thing just kitchen, 1 sleep room ( everyone slept), hallway and working room( mudroom ) well done! My questions. How the TV doing with the heat from the stove? How about the night bathroom needs for kids ? I am curious how this will works with a little toddler. I love small budget options. People need to live their lifes, not just work hard to have stuff that one day they leave behind when they cross on another side.

    I grew up in the US. We lived in a 900sft/3bedrooms/1 bath/front room/kitchen combo utility room. Oh yeah there were 10 of us. Mom and dad and 8 kids. It was good for us. They had it built and it was on 1/2 an acre. So we had a big back yard to play in. We had an oil furnace for heat. Most of the homes in our neighborhood were this way. Oh yeah, parents paid about 11K for the home brand new in 55.

    You definitely had some creative ideas for making your children’s rooms special and unique while providing them with privacy as they get older. You could easily build an additional room onto your house either as a master bedroom suite and put the baby in your old room since you really don’t want a toddler having to go up and down a ladder especially at night. I loved seeing your beautiful home. 🤗👍🏻❤️🏡

  • @stevenalexander4721
    @stevenalexander4721 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    This always drives me crazy when people call homes around 800 sq ft tiny. A 800 sq ft house is not tiny, it's normal. Most mobile homes are around this size with 2 to 3 bedrooms. Homes around 700 sq ft to 1,000 sq ft are not tiny nor small, they're average. It is what a home use to be before people started wanting 2,000-3,000 sq ft homes. Now most of those people are realizing how crazy all that space is and are trying to go back to average. To me, the tiny house movement has taken this to the extreme with claustrophobic spaces that are okay for vacations but not long-term living. A few final things on mobile homes/trailers vs tiny homes. I see a lot of people loving and praising tiny homes, yet these same people look down on people living in mobile homes/trailers because they don't view it as a real home. Well, here are some facts, tiny homes are not insured or recognized as legal homes and most insurance companies will not provide insurance as a home. Tiny homes are usually listed as RVs, and you need RV insurance if you will even get that. Mobile homes/trailers don't have this problem and are classified as legal dwellings that can be insured with homeowners' insurance. Where they are the same is that both will depreciate in value rather than going up in value like most real estate. The other thing that will make tiny homes harder to sell is the fact that most are customized to fit the original owner's specific needs and wants that another buyer may not have, thus making it harder to find the right buyer. One finale thing is that tiny homes are now reaching costs that exceed mobile homes/trailers and actual houses.

    So many people feel they must have huge homes despite the fact that most are unused space for much of the day. Adults are typically both working (need 2 incomes) while kids are in school then activities afterwards. The utility costs for maintaining these behemoths is absurd & costly to our environment.
    I've researched tiny homes for over 6 years & plan to have one built for myself once I find a legal place to put it. Your home is perfect, well designed for your family. Kids are more adaptable & don't need excess space. Overall benefits are what matters & this provides more quality of life & family togetherness. ❤
