    The homes in the park are too close together for my taste, but this couples' house is really so well designed. I like the idea of no loft to climb into and enough space to walk around the bed. Very clever way of providing air inflow through the front door!

    Easy-to-follow shed designs This guide has the information you need to design and build your own ideal backyard shed. ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxzaRUJNcbypw-fRBDbqqz43ULIa-1EGP- The book then presents several basic sheds, along with a number of more complex special-use sheds. It was fantastic and I wanted to let all the readers know that even a little old Grandma can build a shed. Thanks to the author for offering all the directions to build a shed from start to finish.

    Jenna, this was such a well planned out home. I don't feel the neighbour's could be too close, for comfort. As you get older, meeting neighbour's can be fun and, offer friendships that ordinarily would be missed when fixated on privacy.
    I love the thought given to keep what is necessary and agree, as we age, who wants 'stuff'! Thanks for sharing this video and, thanks to the couple who let us get a peek inside, their Tiny Home.

      There's one in Texas with a retired school teacher and hers in all one floor. Wrap around deck and lots of built-ins. Hopefully you never are hurt but climbing ladders is never great daily for older knees and stairs with storage is always a great idea.

    Nice little house and the extra 2 foot width really makes a huge difference in layout possibilities.
    I like the idea of a tiny house community but that is like living in a parking lot so not where I would want to live.
    The deck really does add another living area and the smaller the inside living area is, the more we use an outside area which helps meet neighbors and that's what builds a community.

      You are on the wrong video aren't you? You should be watching home improvement videos where people add new rooms to an already big house 🙂 I think these videos are watched by people like me who want to spend limited amount of money of using so we can spare some more on lifestyle. The idea is to spend on travelling, health care and stress free life rather than on wooden logs and planks and contractors and land.

      @@carolb3946 Looks good but under development I see. And the space rent is projected at $300/month plus utilities which is probably reasonable once it is all set up. The developer is making the common mistake of facing the front of the houses outward. I like property layouts where the homes face inwards, towards each other, or the lake, or a courtyard. Vehicle access road is around the perimeter. If I was developing the property I would pull the lake front homes back at least 50 feet and face them towards the lake and add a boardwalk around the lake.

    I like that wire heat option for the incoming water. My dad was a welder, so, if it was necessary our pipes could be carefully thawed, in extreme blizzard conditions, but underpinning and simply well wrapped insulation worked most of the time. Often other people would get his help thawing their pipes. He's a professional pipe fitter. A lot of people where we lived weren't there long enough to want underpinning. Many years we didn't. Lots if Colorado blizzards happened every winter. Very large deep drifts, but also very dry. Unlike Pennsylvania which also had lots of snow that piled up, but was wet and heavier snow. I don't think we had full underpinning in Pennsylvania. Those were our first years coping with snow, and figuring out how to deal with thick ice as well. The propane kept us really warm.

    This couple spent a fortune on their house, but yet their living room is so cramped and cannot accommodate a couch, and then, that shelf in the bedroom, taken from the bathroom, looks like a cluttered nightmare, and they even have stacks of shoes piled up, @ eye level behind the TV, and tiny living doesn't mean squirreling your belongings everywhere, in view of yourself and others. Also, I concur with others, that it looks like they're living in a parking lot, but to each his own, and as long as they are happy, that's all that matters.
