I am currently in Texas, but I will relocate TODAY 😄
What is your email address please?
@@goldenheart751 love it!
Where? Florida & South Carolina 🙂Do you leave the country to find Tiny House Towns too? if so, then Belize. 🙂
@mrsmatthews5943 thanks for sharing! We'd love a good excuse to go to Belize 😁
We need way more of these type of communities! Back to the basics of what we really need to be happy
The company Tiny Estates is working to make that happen! They are working towards creating 40 communities across the US in the next 5 years!
Facts, you said exactly what this country and the world should get back to. There is nothing like basic living less stress, less money, more time for loved ones and fun.
@@TinyHouseExpedition Any in Florida?
I’m in! Who can I talk with about getting a lot and a builder? Ivebeen ready my ut couldn’t find a spot ! I may have seen this last year it was in NC I remember that .
That’s so funny ! Then probobly good soil for gardens!! 😊
Absolutely perfect...Adorable homes that people can afford. Animals being cared for and black and white people just hangout....
“We made this place fun”… I appreciate these two. Their attitudes, and omg, that creek. Anyone else notice all the bird songs throughout? This is my kind of place!
A heartwarming & enchanting place to call home ☺️✨🕊
"As long as there is maple wood bacon, I will eat meat."
Oh Regina, never change. You are a treasure.
💯agree!
Yes, BACON!!!
I couldn’t help chuckle at Regina’s reply. 😂 I am also glad to see someone of my culture there. I’ve looked at tiny homes and communities to move into within a year. This is a beautiful area. I would love to visit. Thank you for sharing😊😂❤
it's funny. I know several people who eat 99% plant based but will not say no to good bacon. I am one of them :)
@@januarywyattme too
If I was less of an introvert this community (or one like it) would be my number one place to live. I don't mind being around people but I definitely have to have down time. Congrats to the property owners and homeowners of this lovely community. You have achieved something pretty special. Hopefully local government will come around and see this for what it is and be more accommodating in future projects.
Don't let that stop you. I'm an introvert and would still move there if I could. I would move there for the scenery, peacefulness and nature.
We need so many more of these tiny home communities and they need to be run by owners like this!.
Hats off to the owners, who are giving tenants space around them. In Australia they are cramming houses together with less space. No thought regarding the wildlife, all about greed. Shame on them. Hats off to this tiny home community for making it work. It almost makes me want to move to the USA to live in such a great community!
It's truly wonderful to see the owners go out of there way to create such a beautiful, pleasant place for people to live 💗
The little yards are important, houses no matter how big or small smushed together on concrete is not peaceful to anyone.
This is what a awesone community should feel like. I think that its ideal to end homelessness. Every one having a sense of self sufficiency, diversity, responsibility with respect for each person, etc. Way to go!
The lot rent is $500+ and tiny homes are really glorified mobile homes. Nice place but wouldn't help us poor folk.
I truly love this concept & I hope it will grow & grow all around the USA. Many of the houses built back in the day were 700-1000 sq ft homes it’s only been in the last few decades they are building huge homes & not everyone can afford it so this is definitely great to see.
So true!
Places like Acrony Bell and Incredible Tiny Homes are bringing tiny home living to the forefront. I truly wish this was available to me 27 years ago when I was just starting out on my own, being a new mom at that time. All the money wasted in renting could've been a nice retirment nest egg for me. It is something that's being looked down upon because many people only think about what RV/Trailer homes use to look like back in the day. These homes are beautifully made and I wish I had the money to buy 3 of them; one for me and one for each of my adult children.
I love the inclusivity of this community. Looks like a very open minded and accepting place to live.
🙄
I live in a nearby town and have driven by Acony Bell on a number of occasions. Acony Bell is a beautiful tiny home community. If I even had a tiny home, this is where I would love to live. And btw, "acony bell" is the name of a flower that is native to this part of NC
So happy to hear that positive feedback 💗🌼
I was planning to buy a tiny house and put it on a piece of land here in Georgia, but was told they aren’t allowed anywhere except trailer parks. It’s hard to believe that it’s not legal to live in a small house even one that meets every safety code.
Georgia does allow very small homes but they must be on foundations. Is there a reason you don't want it on foundation other than infrastructure cost? I'm just curious. TIA
@@latonyalee7821 my county does not allow tiny homes anywhere except trailer parks. Trust me, I checked.
@@notavictim2007 I was asking about a small home on foundation, which is allowed in many counties in Georgia. It just can't be mobile. :)
@@latonyalee7821 that also isn’t allowed for me
@@notavictim2007 Are you speaking of tiny houses on foundation? I know they are allowed in several counties in Georgia when on foundation. I have no desire to live in a house on wheels long term.
Luckily, there are some Georgia counties that allow tiny houses. Atlanta, Columbus, Savannah, Macon, and Albany all have zoning laws that permit tiny homes. When approved by the local government, tiny houses on permanent foundations and must be constructed by state licensed contractors where required by state law.
Thank you so much for this video, I love this tiny community it’s one of the first ones to open. As a woman of color I love the inclusion and thank you for interviewing the 2 beautiful women of color because I needed that, I want to get a tiny home and eventually get my own land this was so reassuring for me
We are so happy to share. ❤️ Wishing you the best with your tiny home journey! 😊
I love this place! It feels like the residents are a reflection of the the owners in their thoughtfulness, compassion and understanding for one another. Lovely to see. Such a beautiful and peaceful location too ❤
I’m just hoping the stars all align and there is an available lot in two years when I retire and sell my ball and chain 2000 sq ft home! So ready to shed the NONSTOP upkeep on my home and property and have began the downsizing process. This community is EXACTLY what I yearn for. It’s wonderful! The community is beautiful and so are these Residents ♥♥♥
We're rooting for you Lizzie!
I feel exactly like you do!!
Rent an Airbnb to experience the village for a weekend you'll really fall in love with the "bell"
@@girlie720 great advice! Thank you 😉I was just looking at the great selection of tiny homes available to rent there. I just envision myself hanging out with everyone by the fire pit and helping in the garden and with the chickens…it’s really a dream of mine to unleash myself from this house that keeps me from REALLY enjoying my life.
@@TinyHouseExpedition thank you! It is my absolute plan! I’ve been working on this plan for about 18 months and WILL make it a reality…if I have to get on a list…so be it. Thank you for your support!
I've seen this village a few time's now it looks amazing I love that each resident has extra space outside to do decking etc...I'd just like to congratulate the owner's of Acony Bell for the amount of planning love they've shown with their infrastructure...if I lived over your side of the world this tiny village would be the best place to live 💜🇦🇺
As a couple that moved out of the “other” tiny home community of notable size in Henderson county, NC, we both especially enjoyed the digs fired at them. We bought land and moved our home to the sticks. We love it. We very much enjoyed this video and seeing y’all be successful. It looks like a much more peaceful and enjoyable place to live, even without a pool. 😉 We agree, stream life is better. 😊
My husband and I would LOVE to live here and would pack up and move tomorrow if possible! @Regina, I hear ya girl!!! I won't ever be vegan either but do enjoy some vegan dishes. Thanks to all residents who shared their experiences and homes. All are very personable and I feel I'd enjoy being your neighbor.
Right. I want to move immediately 🥹
What struck home for me was that the people look after each other and that is one of the reasons some choose to live at Acony Bell. I’ve lived in my home for over 20 years in a typical suburban neighborhood in NE Ohio and don’t know any of my neighbors. I used to bake brownies or cookies for people who just moved in to be friendly and try to open up friendships but then nothing in return. They pull into their attached garages and go into their homes and no one interacts. Even our mail carrier who lives in the same neighborhood doesn’t greet anyone.
That's tough! The tiny home community is generally very open, warm, and friendly, that's one of the perks of living at Acony Bell!
Me too. I realized after being here 35 yrs that my "neighbors" were only staying 2-5 years and poof moved and new people again. No investment in the community or plans to stay. It's sad. I was a young person of 25 when we bought our home here. I'm one of a few old people here now after all these years. I keep looking at the landscaping and maintenance and know my day to leave will be coming.
That Is A Very Common Thing In USA. I Live In Illinois Suburbs. My Neighbors Are The Same Way Here In Illinois
After touring apartments with my 20 year old daughter in Providence, RI - and realizing it will cost about 2300 a month for her and a roommate to rent a 2brm apartment, I'm loving the idea of smaller home living. I think we're actually meant to live small. We will always fill only what we have! And no, even working full-time she cannot afford to live alone up here.
That's nuts! Unfortunately, it's becoming quite common across much of the country. :/
Thank you first! We were special friends with a builder that was successful at building a reasonably affordable starter home community in EastHelena, MT. You’re now both my heros. Congratulations on your success! We value common sense, reasonable, satisfying pursuits and success! A labor of love. You are gifted and soo appreciated for your desire to work to provide this rare and highly valued opportunity for so many!!! Great video, so beautiful! 👏👏👏
I have employees still living at home because rent is so high. I hate that for them.
I believe this is the most beautiful tiny living community I've come across.
Would love it if there were an Acony Bell in Georgia. This place is right up my alley
This is the best tiny house community. Lots of activities going on. Love that there space between.
OMG I NEED THIS 😱 I live in VA and have been wanting to move into an area like this. I hope and pray one day I'll be able to even if this area isn't available. May all of you continue to be blessed 🌺
@CJ me too! Richmond in fact....and I'd move TODAY if possible! Maybe years down the road we'll be neighbors. We can hope!
@@needlesharp_diamondstrong8465by
What l really hear and appreciate is the importance of the engineering aspect. Especially with the climate events occurring now. You had a vision and then did everything to make a strong foundation for it. Then you put so much thought and care into what makes human communities function well. It sounds like a huge labor of love. Hopefully others will be inspired by your example and create more communities like this. Sounds like you are being swamped by the demand for what you have created. So glad to know about you. Gives me hope.
“Climate events” have always occurred.
@@pamcornelius9122yes…agree 💯
Years ago when I lived in Candler this was just beginning to be put together. I am so pleased to have seen this video and gotten this update. I love Mills River and used to help Joe ans Linda do the farmers market there. I am so pleased to see this up and thriving.
I don't even live there but you two men have did a beautiful job n I love how it's a community of all color n the truly the really most wonderful thing is that each person get to know one another n come together as a village of people watching this there is a lot of love n respect in the village n in this day n age n the time we are in it's so beautiful there n I like how you went into detail about yourselves n the people thank you for sharing from massachusetts.
I think what you are doing is beautiful. I’ve been watching tiny home living since 2017. Everyone thought I was crazy. I ended up with a mobile home in a mobile home park. It really wasn’t what I was looking for. To many closed mines. Poorly run and within a few years became run down. Spaces filled with rv’s that were not even allowed when we signed the contract. Didn’t enforce anything and anyone welcomed as long as the lot rent was paid. My family wanted me out of there after two weekends in a row gunfire broke out one block from my yard. I had to make a decision to move and it broke my heart. Leaving our gardens in 2022 for an apartment. Back to square one. Now it’s to late. My dream will never be filled bc of health problems. Plus closed mine set. They still think I’m crazy. lol. God bless you all and live your dream. Don’t wait until it’s to late.
So sorry to hear that. :/ Excellent advice! 💕
I lived outside Asheville for a couple years as a teen, best years of my life! Bluegrass, clogging, mountains ❤️
I pray when the time comes and I have my tiny home there is a space available here. This place seems wonderful. Fingers crossed for a Phase 4!!!
CONGRATULATIONS to the Owners and Caretakers of their Acrony Bell WONDERFUL Community, your vision and your caring for community members.
Wishing all Australian 3 levels of Government would embrace the vision, so many missed opportunities to bring people together for a better life and outcomes under the enormous strain of available housing in our country.
THANK YOU FOR SHARING ❤🙏🏻👍🏻🙋🏻♀️🇦🇺
Thanks for watching!
so nice that sense of "Community" 😍 where people are kind and care about neighbors... also so green 💚
What beautiful and healthy community ✨ For sure you're enjoying life more with the relationship you have with the neighborhood. Truly inspiring right? ❤
Indeed!
OMGosh, Location Location! I would love if my site rent was only $600. I'm in Nor Cal and paying $1400 in addition to my mortgage. You All Are BLESSED! ❤
Love this little community! 🤗 thanks for another great upload!!
You are most welcome! We had the absolute best time at Acony Bell this past fall ❤️
It makes me mad that they aren't keeping a waiting list for phase III...and to see this now....
@@ellen3sons from what we understand, waiting lists can be tough because many people aren’t ready move in when a spot is open. But just because it’s currently closed doesn’t mean you couldn’t possible get a spot when Phase 3 is ready to open in the fall. Definitely keep in touch with Acony Bell & follow their socials 😅
I pray we can get a tiny home on your gorgeous land. Everybody seems so sweet and lovely--you are our kind of people! Pray for us! 💕
Wishing you the best! 💚
Sounds so peaceful and serene living there. 🌹
Civil engineer + real estate property management. A marriage made in heaven for a tiny home community!
💯😄
I love this video featuring your wonderful community! Don't ever change its unique and beautiful features.
Isn't it great?! 😁
Absolutely the SPACE in between is important!
One of the best videos on tiny home communities- amazing!
They don’t mention the price
@@4018magentawell most videos don’t list prices bc of the changing prices on everything…esp these days. But it would make a video obsolete very fast if they listed prices. I’m sure the owners would be glad to tell you current prices.
It’s an updated version of a trailer park. I’ve always wanted the community of a trailer park, but typically manufactured homes are subpar quality and they look like military row houses. What you’ve done here is perfect.
Isn't it lovely?
What an incredible place! If it was in Northern Ca I’d move there in a heartbeat!!
We need more counties allowing this kind of space.
Smart people, great community. I like how smart is the lady over 50 years, that is carnivore. She rocks.
A tiny home community that's been engineered carefully developed with genuine LOVE❤ .... I might just be sold! This makes me so hopefully joyful, FOR REAL!!!! Thank you so much for this amazing video @Tiny House ❤Expedition!
I think it all looks amazing. I hope that the areas where the trees have been taken down are replanted with the native trees and vegetation that surrounds... as that's what makes it so beautiful. Thank you. ❤
So happy to share! They have done a lot of planting & more to come 😊🌳🌲
I have seen a few of this community, I like it more every time.
You are on the pulse of something incredibly special. Much success!
They are wonderful
Homes!!!🎉🎉🎉🎉
I would love to be able to live there..I'm on SSI for life and live in a 30foot 1bedroom RV..ii can't drive and have some mobility issues..I don't have the money to buy a tiny house so I had to get an RV..that place looks wonderful..that place would be a godsend..I'm alone except for my 40 yr. Old son checking on me..I feel separated from the world..if I had a tiny home I would be there in a heartbeat..I hope everyone there knows how lucky you all are..enjoy....
💕
I will visit here. I live in 384 sq ft but no community. (In south Louisiana) I would be in heaven living here. 🙏🙏🙏
Bravo, gents!!!!!
My heart yearns to be free of "stuff" and full of really living! Researching tiny home for 6 months now and really want to live the tiny life!
Wonderful! Best wishes with your planning ❤️
@@williammcneill2753 Yes, land is definitely the hard part. I understand, mobile home parks have been doing it for years and years...
I saw this place once before. Very nice. I don't think its for kids like another I saw in a wooded neighborhood, but it's very nice and I can see being happy there. Having friendly people and taking care of the surroundings is a big plus.
You're so right. 😊They do have a few kids here
Great work guys, thank only angels can do this. Thank you
This is one of the best communities I have viewed ever! Thank you for sharing. I can't wait to visit in person!!!!!
wow Thankyou for making this video for us it's beautiful there.
Love the idea of a tiny home.
Outstanding video! Thank you so much.
You’re so welcome; glad you enjoyed it! ☺️✨
LOVE IT, My Dream!!! Blessings, Thank You for Sharing!🌅
GA needs one place like that FOR SURE!! Pleaseeeee!!🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Great Job!! 💜 Acony Bell 💜
I stayed here in an Air B & B and it was awesome! Thd location is perfect, so close to amenities, airport and all of the gorgeous hiking you can manage! Would love to live here.
We need this done throughout all the states all across the board. Affordable housing should be reachable for all american citizens.
What an awesome community!
I pray one day I can get to move there... I'm inspired and mesmerized. That's so pretty how all the homes are unique and special.
Oh my goodness!! This looks nice! nicest TH community I have seen so far! Definitely an option!
Absolutely love your concept of living!
Amazing Community! Love this!❤
Thank you for sharing this informative and well presented housing option. Go community!
Thanks for watching!
What an Amazing place!
The community in the video is beautiful! I love the mountains. I know tiny homes are in high demand...Incredible Tiny Homes has quality homes they build out of Tennessee. They're on UA-cam for anyone looking for beautiful quality tiny homes from good people. ☺️
This looks like paradise. I hope these developers make more of these communities happen.
Looks exactly like the security, kindness and structure I'm looking for ❤ wishful thinking tho 🤷♀️
Good Job! I love this Video and the everyone who is in it! Thank You
Loved this video. It’s my dream to make my own small community in the next 5 years. 58 acres is to much for me but maybe 5.
Just like the saying goes
HOME SWEET HOME :)
NICE
Wow beautiful
This community is beautiful I'm up here in New Hampshire and wish they were tiny house communities up here we really need some
The thing that interests me the most is the community….. the garden, the chicken coop, the campfires, the gatherings. Well done!
This is so smart. Thank you so much for sharing this information 🌺
You are most welcome!
We need more communities like this - cool idea
i am purchasing land for a tiny home community much like Acony Bell. i love their videos
What a beautiful community you have there. Thoughtful educated and eclectic people with a care of their footprint. Which is novel in South Carolina I would imagine. All the best. It would be a community I would be blessed to be apart of.
This is NC, not SC…did you realize that? Your comment was a bit confusing.
Such a cool vacation for my family…we have rented two different places at Acony. Loved our time.
This looks idyllic. What an amazing effort & community.
💯❤️
Loved, there needs to more like this!!! Great job!
We need many many more around the whole country!! 😄
this place is fantastic! Think I will start packing today!
I would love to live there. It looks like paradise.
So sweet
Very cool!!
Another gem. Thanks!
You are very welcome! ☺️
Great video, thanks for showing us this is possible. I just set my notifications on for this channel too!
We appreciate you, Kristina! 💕
Team work makes dream work great job 👏
I have been watching ad nd looking into credibility of builders who put pride and quality in their work. I’ve also been looking into where I want to put my forever retirement home. Acony bell is on the top of the list!! I pray that Acony expands to put my tiny house after I sell my Victorian farmhouse…. I pray for it!
Wow, beautiful living. That is what i dream
PLEASE.. I agree with Pamela. From Birmingham area, north and east are beautiful rivers, lakes, etc. the weather is very pleasant here with mild winters. Thanks!
Wish I could live there. Well done! ❤
