- Louise lives in her Tiny home that was built for her by a friend for roughly $45,000 Aud in a beautiful spot in a gum tree forest. She is a professional organizer and finds that living in a tiny house suits her well. Because prices of houses went up where she lives she was not able to buy a home and that forced her to look at other options which ended up being a blessing in disguise.

If i had the wealth I'd buy a tonne of land and start a tiny house community. Lots of individual tiny homes. Lots of communal food gardens. Lots of playgrounds for children and wide open spaces. For people that are done with drama.and the noise in the world.
Yes, me too. A great idea!😊
Me 3🎉❤🏆🔮💯🍀🌺🌟
I’d live there for sure!!
Sounds ideal
I've looked into it and RED tape everywhere sadly
No one really wants the commonsense to prevail. But let's not give up 💜
Shire councils and lenders need to recognise and accept tiny houses nationwide ASAP
New Zealand have wonderful spaces all over for tiny house communities. They don’t have any of the crazy rules and regulations Australia has. Australia don’t want them become they won’t get rates without buying the land and Australia won’t allow such small plots to be made available. Oz, bucks first, NZ brilliant, they care about people first.
The older I get, the less I need. Calm spaces, nature within eyesight and no clutter. I like that the furniture isn't built in, it makes it more personal...perfect space, in and out 👍💚💙
I love her. Just love her aura. So light and easy and so positive vibe. I dont know why. And her voice is so soothing too.
Thank you. You are very kind.
Thank you for showing us through. It really is set out well. Easy living.
Bellingen. North Coast, Northern rivers of nsw.
The people have been vibing chill for decades.
I'm in Queensland now after 60 years I the Tweed.
Cheap land and chill vibe.
You make me feel like I wanna be your friend 😊like what Wyble said! Sending good vibes from Quebec 🙋🏻♀️
You're right about her voice. She could read audiobooks.
I never thought about that as an occupation 😊
She has an incredible sense of self love, control and wealth ! Great energy! She’s an incredibly intelligent and inspiring woman 💜💜💜
How do you know all these things about this particular woman?
@@PetraKann.,. Just listening to her voice and views. Listen again and tell me what yóú hear😂❤❤
@@CCelia1953 I am a poor judge of genuine character if I dont know the person.
Anyone can present any persona they like by merely acting or focusing on trivial things or a couple of simple issues.
Not questioning the integrity of the woman in this video.
Over the years, I have learnt that "character" and "personality" are not the same attribute. In fact they are often totally unrelated.
There are those rare individuals where their character and personality are essentially identical.
Can you think of one such person CCCCelia1963?
I was thinking how much I liked her as she speaks and how much of what she says resonates deeply with me.
The connection with the outdoors is phenomenal and in a sense she is living larger than in a large house in a cramped subdivision.
"To live with less. Touch the planet lightly. And most importantly, above and beyond any possessions are personal relationships. To take care, and give love, and be kind! " My kind of people! Love her tiny house. Well thought out.✌
When people reach the end of their lives they don't say 'I wish I'd bought _____.'
She lives in a high class taco stand... pretentious....who cares about these people?
I agree with you. Tiny is the way to go. At any age. I’m almost 70 and a 2bedroom house with a yard is a lot to care for. So the only issue would be the land or a place to put it.
Yes. That is the challenging part and she is obviously lucky to have foibd a spot.
Nailed it. She’s right, a bigger house wouldn’t offer more than she’s got now. It would just be a waste of space. Perfect size house and great attitude.
I did build a house myself in Germany. A 2 family house plus basement. In the end it was too big. Moved to Canada. Everything is bigger in North America. Even the houses. Bought a house in 2010. Brand new. Finished the basement myself. Did attach a brick patio 28x12 neighbors were jealous about. But 4 bedrooms, 4.5 bathrooms, bonus room, big kitchen and living room area. For 3 people. Separation…. And you start thinking. For what? Nobody is actually using all this big houses properly. If you have 8 children. Then 4.5 bathrooms are fine. I moved to Panama. Building myself a 78m2 main floor house. Putting a 2nd level for much later in mind, and will finish it piece by piece. Construction costs? $20,000 - $25,000. Lot 500m2 was $14,000. Looking at the Tiny House movement. If I would have build a 50m2 one level house, it would cost me around $10,000 here in Panama. $45,000 or much more for a trailer size house? Ridiculous. Sorry.
I love how everything is not built-in! I'm sure that's what drives the price up for so many of these tiny homes. Not to mention, having built-ins limits the ability to change things up whenever you want. I love her home but I want my tiny to be my last home, so no lofts for me. Otherwise, everything is PERFECT!
Same here. Built-in narrow couch(es) with thin cushions don't look particularly comfortable. I would gladly give up the under storage space.
I had decided not to have lofts either, but I've since changed my mind. If I have stairs with a sturdy handrail, I want a huge loft for only my sewing/quilting room area.
There is one thing I've GOT to have! That is one of Zack's storage staircases so I can get to the loft easier AND store whatever I want to in the storage under the stairs!
I agree at an older age and physically not able to climb up and down ladder’s or stairs is a no for me. I love this tiny house otherwise.It’s beautiful. I myself would take out the window at the end of the tiny home in living room.Put in a trundle bed.Then I’d be happy with everything.
Her house is beautiful. A True Tiny Home. Not an overpriced glam house.
Isn’t it funny how people who chose to live in a spiritual, artistic, beautiful way, have to apologise for not having built assets and wealth. Guess what, you don’t need to apologise to anyone for anything. I’m that person too.
Wasn’t it funded by the sale of bigger property that they held to accumulate wealth. Plus going of the France for those tours would be luxurious costly adventures. BTW who’s hassling you and “asking you to apologise”? If you’ve a house like this, and it works for you, excellent.
THIS is one of the prettiest and most tasteful tiny houses I've ever seen. Such style !!! So well done! Bravo!
Thank you so much.
@@allthingsfrench I really is lovely! I'd love to know where you had it built?
@@wildpeace my dear friend built it for me. He is experienced but isn’t building tiny houses for a living.
@@allthingsfrench thank you for replying, how special.
It's gret to see a tiny house with an actual living room. 🙂 One of my pet peeves is seeing beautiful tiny homes with literally nowhere to sit or relax. Ya need a comfy couch...at least at my age. LOL!
45,000.00 Australian Dollars = 30,413.46 US Dollars
Amazing.
In the USA, a home like this would likely exceed $100,000 pretty much anywhere in the country. You may be able to find one for under $100,000 but the quality would be subpar, to what you hv. And to find a place to park it, can cost several hundred a month. Regardless. I think the lifestyle is worth it, if one can afford the cost! Congratulations to you for your accomplishment! I am going to check out your sight for France depending ... maybe we will meet one day.
That was materials cost only. Not sure why they didn’t publish that part. I definitely said it.
@@allthingsfrench it wasnt published because people want to click on 45k, noone wants to click on 100k :D
I am 66 and would love a Tiny House, my present place is a very small cottage anyway.
Love that you have furniture that's not built in. I would do exactly the same.
She seems so genuine. What a cool soul
Thank you xx
I love the women of my era, we were raised like this 1950, 60, 70s years.
Good manners, respect and kindness, all shining through in this modern practical home. How’s that beautiful property! Like the sound of France 🇫🇷 ❤
I had a look at the prices of tiny houses today and couldn’t believe how expensive they are. Between $120 grand - $260 grand and thats without the headache of council approvals and red tape.
It really is extremely unfortunate when governments refuse to see housing department tiny houses as an option when it could easily solve Australia’s rental crisis.
In Perth they are cheaper than that and other than one council that is still not stepping up you no longer need council approval, the one main rule is that a tiny house can't be the first house put on the property, you can only build a tiny house on property that already has a house.
@@chantelleshaw1927 Thats an amazing step forward for Perth, I truely hope other states will follow their example.
@@alyssaoconnor COVID changed a lot, and probably like other cities we had a huge homelessness problem and ridiculous rental increases, so this was in response to that to make having a home more affordable, and a tiny home can be anywhere from 30k to over 100k
You're assuming the government want to solve the problem that they created in the first place.
Absolutely love her space, it seems perfectly matched to her personality. And, oh my, what a lovely, calm, airy setting to park her tiny home. Beautiful 💖
Beautiful tiny home as long as you don’t hurt yourself as we are in upper years. They need to design tiny homes for people over 60 because it’s just not ideal that older folks get so comfortable in a home that may not last long for their needs as we age.
Im a huge fan of murphy beds. If one day she cannot use the loft anymore she can place a murphy bed where the couch is now.
Totally agree, as a 62 year old women whose looking at purchasing a tiny house by 65. Those of use who are 60+ particularly if you are single.
I’m a declutter and organizer, also semi retired and 60+ whose also looking at going tiny for all the reasons you’ve mentioned. Love your realistic views of going tiny. Thank you
The good thing about the boom in tiny living is there are now quite a few companies building tiny houses that are all on one level - no loft bedrooms. Even better, one can draw up a plan and get it custom built to their liking.
I think the clambering into bed is going to pall very quickly, especially as she knocks her knees/legs. And making the bed. Oh no, no, no. I think loft bedrooms are fine for kids, ( as long as they make their own beds. As if!) but downstairs bedroom a must for anyone over 60.
Nicely uncluttered! The multitude of windows help to give a feeling of a bigger space inside. It's all a single person needs really.
It is. I live tiny and I am single. It’s the best decision I ever made. And I smile every time I walk through the front door of my house
Very inspired video. I couldn't agree more: we need to find ways to give folks decent, affordable living.
As the divide between the ultra rich and the poor increases, as the middle class disappears, ”they” may want us to move to trailer parks and call it ”tiny houses”. Also, these tiny houses pop up in nice landscapes. I thought we were to cluster housing, not sprinkle it over nature. I get it in Australia. It doesn’t work in Belgium.
My goal in life is to find the peace that this woman has found in life.
Beautiful home!"purpose driven aquisition"... that's a philosophy that should be widely taught! I love it!
ARTICULATE WOMAN. AND GORGEOUS.
Thank you very much.
It's a lovely home, she's done an amazing job, but wow, what a beautiful piece of land to be parked on and be a part of.
I love the stainless steel sink. They are so easy to clean and look beautiful! Thank you.
Louise, your home is beautiful. I love all the windows. You are such a beautiful soul too. Thank you for sharing your home with us. ❤
I love your tiny home and how everything has a place. You have a traditional sofa and table, and that makes your home so beautiful.
She’s living the dream. ❤
Inspiring. And Bellingen is a beautiful backdrop to your beautiful home .
I like your tiny house. I like seeing how you can build them different in Australia then we build them here in the U.S. because of the weather. I live where it snows and up to 6 months ago could snow 5-6 feet. So my house is heavily insulated, my roof is slanted to shed the snow and I have all thermal windows and doors. And now back up propane heat. I love my tiny too. It’s the best decision I ever made. I have been a tiny houser for 5 years in April. I can’t imagine living life without coming home to my tiny house.
She’s as cute as a bundle of puppies, I love that she cooks everyday for her dad🌻🪻. Spectacular views!
It's a beautiful home with all the windows, the metal siding, and kitchen setup and the bedroom loft is clean and welcoming. Individual pieces of furniture seem much more comfortable and homey. Downsizing/rightsizing seems so smart. You own your things rather than your things owning you.
So being a povo started being called downsizing a few years back, and now it's being called rightsizing. And they're not trailer homes, they're tiny homes!
I love them and am building one, but the language people use just makes me laugh
Wonderful host! Love this home & the way she kept personal touches with memories attached to them. Windows are beautiful ❤
What an inspirational video. Great buildout of your tiny house space. For five years I lived in a 22 ft. RV as a home-away-from-home while working in another city. I was shocked at how cozy the small space felt. My family and I really enjoyed spending time in this RV which we used both as an "apartment" for me and as a family getaway since it was so close to the beach. I will never forget how it felt spending nights there in all seasons and in good and bad weather. From that time til now I remain a fan of tiny spaces. Your space is right on point!
Brilliant. Everyone in this modern wealthy society could get something out of watching this and learning to touch lightly on the planet. The more things we own the harder it is to see ourselves through all the clutter and you have reminded me of that. Thank you.
Such a beautiful home. Thank you for sharing.❤
What a beautiful home. I love how you have the big window in kitchen that opens and the 3 door slider to the outside deck is awesome! Thanks for sharing.
Lovely home. Very open. You can see her flare for organizing. Love the clothes storage and love the super functional kitchen drawers versus cabinets.
Nice, neat and simple. Your views of simplicity are on par with my own. Very well done!
Awesome house ! You can tell she’s happy and she’s finally at home. I’m jealous 😝. Thanks for sharing ! Go Aussies !
Absolutely love your home Louise. Your passion for your home is evident. I totally relate to your home and story. I live in a 21ft caravan and we finally have our container home on the land. It’s not ready to move in but for us it’s about living life and not being tied to huge outgoings. We are also surrounded by windows. I love to see all around, watch the wildlife and sunset. Perfect x
One of the coolest tiny homes i’ve seen! I would live in this one in a heartbeat. Thanks for the tour ☮️
Absolutely wonderful. It looks like it gives you so much joy Loiuse. Brilliant. 🙏
A beautiful home! Glen Murcutt is my favourite architect. Your mantra of touching the earth lightly is something he also reflects in his design
Thank you Louise. This was so inspirational - and very practical advise!
Your home is so well executed - looks comfy ,stylish & practical. I really like your outlook on life.
Perfect! Love the feel of space and bringing the outside in. Have been downscaling for ages and this is my dream! Well done!
Wow you have storage, everything has a place! I love it.
Great house! Such a sensible approach to living. My favourite element is the cabinets that create the stairs to the bedroom area - practical and safer than a ladder…
Love her indoor outdoor living. I feel the same way about living in a small house. Everything has a place or it goes.
Love the home so bright and really well planned out. I also love her way of thinking!
As always..
The wisdom of simplicity. The luxury of efficiency.
Very well done.
Love it, and she makes so much sense. We don't need all the crap that we buy, just the few things that make us happy, and to definitely live more lightly and kinder to the planet. ❤
I could listen to her voice all day. Love her. What a wonderful lady.
I just love your tiny house too, especially the rounded tables,stool items by the couch. You have absolutely everything without sacrificing light and the spacious feeling of bringing the outside in.
Thank you for sharing your beautiful tiny home with us….your ‘living with less ‘mantra truly resonates.
Wonderful Lou, so glad this popped up on my You Tube feed... Mary & I will get out to see you sooner or later, once this rain clears.
OMG!! Its Louise!! Beautiful finished product - lovely to see you settled so happily in your gorgeous home.
Thank you lovely. I just love living here. X
“Touch the planet lightly” Beautiful
Thank you for such a wonderful look at your lifestyle…I love everything about your home & your living philosophy!
Thank you very much, you are very kind. X
Love this one. Very simple and beautiful. It works and for the price, it really works.
Your home is lovely!
Built in gods country, I grew up and went to school there.
Beautiful house!
What a beautiful space and no better orator than its owner; you have truly sold the concept in every way and I thank you so much! ❤
This is really lovely, well done!
Wonderful! Well done Louise, and all the very best!
Very nice. You’re so lucky to live in a beautiful home with a beautiful view.
So beautiful and inspiring! Thank you for sharing your home❤.
Wonderful home, and I know what a superb location Bellingen is, in a fantastic part of Australia (lived in Macksville many years ago).
You have built an incredible home Congratulations, and clearly you love and it brings you joy👍🏻🍾🥂🙏🏻
Such a lovely house. Thanks for sharing it.
It's beautiful
Good on you, Loise! I too live in a not-so-tiny house that I built myself with all things sorted to suit my needs. I am 6'2 and all my cabinets are taller, the home is taller than typical at just under 15' to give more space in my loft so I do not feel cramped in that space. Your house is lovely and the raked angles on the exterior and steel construction, siding, and all the windows makes me feel like I am looking at a smaller version of my lovely home. Great Job!
I love everything about your home and your style. You certainly live in paradise and everything you’ve done is a reflection of you. ❤
I love all of the concept... Thanks for sharing
This one is my favorite. Thank you for sharing with us. Everything about it is great
Thanks for sharing.
Wow just beautiful, love it! Love the window going into the kitchen however I would be weary of lowering the deck as I am clumsy so I would for sure trip a lot and fall forgetting the difference in high!
What a lovely home! ❤️
Thank you. I enjoy watching.
Totally love it !!! She is living the Australian Dream ❤
I love the window in the shower!! My grandmother had one like that in her house in florida!! . It brightened up the shower and bathroom plus lovely air flow
Everything she said. Yeh, I want ALL of this. For these very reasons. And the design...🔥🔥🔥
It’s absolutely beautiful & blends so wonderfully with the environment
Well done - enjoy
Thx
Wow! Absolutely fabulous. What a great build and the indoor outdoor feel is just perfect.
Have you ever thought about purchasing an air fryer. They’re not a drain on power, they’re portable, don’t take up a lot of space, cook quicker and are perfect for small spaces.
Who needs a big place, you just accumulate more stuff you don’t need. Thanks for sharing just a lovely lifestyle and inspirational build.
I never got along with an air fryer. I think I didn't give it enough time. I make alot of Veggies
@@donnadiesburg7451 Then your doing it wrong.
I have thought about it and may well go there one day. Thank you.
All Things French you will love the air fryer . There is a lady on You Tube who shows how to cook meals. So for one or two people, it's great ! Love your home !!!
@@vickiehanan5686 Thank you for that information and I appreciate your love of my home. X
This fabulous!! Love the kitchen and bathy!!
One of the best I have ever seen. Well done.
Tiny home movement is more than house designs. It’s the anti-consumption philosophy. Recycling, buy and keep anything you only need, spend more time outdoor with people you care about and lastly as Louise said, kindness. Love this video.
I love this house - the open feel all the windows ! Can' t believe how well thought out its been . Paradise .!.
Really love this, I've been leaning towards getting 2 bedrooms. However, i agree that less space is needed and it stops you buying unessential things.❤
❤ your tiny home. Great idea. Lovely😊
Love this tiny house. My niece built her own tiny house and it’s beautiful. Prices in California is just out of control. There’s no affordable housing in the state.
That's awesome. One of the best I've seen in 50 years of house building.. Well done.
This house is perfect for me! I love it. TYSM for sharing.
Thanks for sharing and giving so much information. Love your home :)
This is by far one pf my favorite videos. Love your home! Also, I love the suggesgtion of getting rid of 3 things everything. I'm about to embark on my wn tiny house journey and will definitely implement this in my plan. Thank you so much sharing your story.
Really lovely home and parking spot. I appreciated her candor about how she wound up in a tiny home, but I also believe that her message about living with less is spot on. One thing I wondered about was the louver windows during winter. I would imagine cold air would seep through even when shut. And though I personally am not a fan of loft beds, I do understand the need for them in small spaces.
The climate is very moderate around here and, although I haven’t lived in it through the deepest part of winter. Yet, I’m sure that with window coverings, it will be fine.
