    BEAUTIFUL house and I would have had my house with NO upstairs and NO stairs too!
    Who the heck wants to go upstairs anyway?

    Her set up is perfect for anyone who's getting up in age. I would just have a small stand up washer/dryer set in the bathroom though.

    What a lovely person Dorothy is❣️ She's got just enough space to visit with friends, display her favorite pieces, and live a comfortable life. It's perfect! Time savings from less maintenance, and no mortgage gives financial freedom, so she has the $ and time to explore the rest of the world, and build a tiny yard that is a bit of paradise, just like her beautiful, functional home. 😊

    It's wonderful! I know that I would enjoy this type of community, it's like being on a cruise ship except on land. I wish there were communities like this in the far west, or near the North Carolina coast. (I know there's one big place in NC, but it's all the way to the east of the state, too far away from my family who live on the coast.)

    Having cared for my elderly grandmother in a tiny home the same exact size as the one in this video, I am concerned about how small this bathroom is in regards to needing assistance with toileting and bathing in the future. The bathroom of the tiny home where I cared for my grandmother had much more open area between the toilet, sink and walk-in shower in which I could maneuver myself, her walker, etc as needed. Please think of this when designing tiny homes where you hope to be able to "age in place". Also always assume you will need to use a walker in the future, and as such design hallways, doorways and especially the bathroom with that in mind. Not doing so may make it so that you cannot stay living in your home for as long as you had hoped to.

    • @chezmoi42
      @chezmoi42 4 місяці тому +1

      You can contact them to ask for a quote, since it is different from the standard model on their website. A lot of people have asked how to fit in a 48" shower or tub, this is perfect.

    • @bijoux-hw9dh
      @bijoux-hw9dh 4 місяці тому

      I don’t think it would cost much more since they don’t have to make the stairs. Nice modifications. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

    • @michelb.8953
      @michelb.8953 4 місяці тому

      @vilmaestrada945 They have a website with prices listed. Prices vary depending on accessories so they give a price spread, but you get the idea of a ballpark price. Just search Incredible Tiny Homes and their website will come up.

    Lovely home and Dorothy is a treasure. Living tiny is definitely not for everyone. Before making the plunge just try restricting yourself to your bedroom and kitchen and see if you can whittle your possessions to fit comfortably. I live in an 864 sq. ft. prairie ranch house and watch tiny videos to get small space decorating ideas.

    There is NO WAY that we can get anything like this in Canada. Even tiny homes cost a lot, and definitely not anywhere close to $200/rent per month and utilities for $25…. Wow just wow.
