Tiny Homes have made it to the Big League - Trulia.com

As a realtor I keep tabs on Trulia and Zillow all the time. Imagine my surprise when in my perusal a few weeks ago I came across a Truilia Blog that mentions, yes, my favorite topic, a tiny home.  322 sq. ft. log style home on 9 acres of gorgeous Wyoming real estate, and it's for sale.  

This home was custom built in 2007.  It might be rustic and remote, but the little home sports a full suite of appliances (no dishwasher though), as well as the luxuries of running water and eco-friendly heat and electricity. 

Welcome to the big league tiny homes!

Gypsy Caravan Home

Just in case you think the "Tiny Home" movement is limited to the US, here is an amazing 23' Caravan or Shepherds Hut. What I like (besides the glorious trim and attention to details) is the axle configuration on the trailer that he has built this home on.

The YouTube video is narrated by the builder who has this unit on the market - any takers?

A Tiny Home to write home about!



I started a new job in January 2015 and haven't found the time to post anything since then.   However, I am making time now because I have found my "I want" tiny home.  As an interior designer I like to design my own spaces, however, I found someone else's design that I have to applaud.  This couple has taken into account headroom, natural light, the need for privacy when inside and the cute aspect. Why have a tiny home if it isn't cute!  It has a functioning kitchen, room for 2 recliners, a wood stove and an awesome bathroom.

I would sell my house and both cars and invest in a vehicle that could tow this THOW (tiny home on wheels) in a heart beat.  I just have to convince my husband - he is a writer and has "hundred's" of books for research purpose.  I tell him all the time that if he dies first I am getting one even if I have to park it in a relative's backyard and do day care for the privilege.  He just laughs.  I am not giving up my quest to have one though.

So, let me share this intriging home with you:  http://tinyhousetalk.com/expanding-tiny-house-with-slide-outs-that-will-amaze-you/


Expect to see me retiring in one of these real soon!
