The previous owner was Mike Oliver, who passed away fairly recently. I have had great times in that house during the 90's. The current owner reminds me a lot of Mike. I'm glad to see the house attracts a certain type of person who can appreciate the unique home!
The tiny house movement may not be as new as we think. Thanks for another great video!
Very true! Thank you so much, Liam! It would be fun to see the other "Skinny Houses" across the country. But this one will always have a special place in our hearts.
So great to see you visiting the Skinny House. I live just 4 blocks from this treasure and it’s been a must-see for all my visitors.
Please stay in the skinny house and document it!
Agree!
Also agree !!!
I third that!
I. Live less. Than. A. Mile. From. Here.....
@@machine2747 i bet their rent will be tiny too
Tuesday is my favorite month.
must suck to be born on the month of monday lol
@@uli23t lol!
Hahahahahah
😆🤣😂
Wait a minute - there is a skinny house in Alameda, CA, on Broadway. Go there.
The Alameda house is 10' deep for the lower level, and extends to 12' deep on the upper level making it slightly wider. Technically it's a wide, but shallow house. It gets 3-4 parking spaces in front at least.
I'll book next time I'm in town!!!
How beautiful!!
Thanks guys you rock!!
what a cool house, we need more architecture like this to add housing stock to california. this is one of the most spacious “tiny homes” i’ve seen.
Yes, I knew this was in Long Beach!!! Super cool when you both find things in Long Beach!!!! 👍🏻😀👍🏾🇵🇭🇺🇲🇨🇦
Hey, I have that same sun/moon throw blanket on the back of my couch, very cool! Nice little retro decoration touches. Thanks for the tour!
Me too!
Wow, somebody please leave me a Los Angeles driveway in their will! LOL!
Omg, Tuesday is my favorite month too..😊😅
Definitely stay a night here! Show us how the roof top looks at night with stary sky and chill
Just a few suggestions if you haven't done them yet: "The Flintstone House" 20 minutes south of San Francisco. Several Octagon houses in SF. All sort of houses on the Filbert and Greenwich Steps, even the wooden lanes perpendicular to the Filbert Steps. A couple of "Earthquake" houses on the Presidio. There is a lot of history in all of these mentioned homes. Happy Discovery and Exploration!
Great suggestions, thank you! :)
Wow thank you
At the end: "Your turn. NO!" LOL so funny! Love you guys.
I love your odd house content. This is amazing and a great use of lot. And it’s always great that you have interviews to tell the stories of the house. Now I want to stay here.
Stay overnight! What a wonderful space! 💓💓
Yes stay in the skinny house overnight!!!! 👍🏻😀👍🏾🇵🇭🇺🇲🇨🇦
I love unique homes like this! So cool that it's a historical location and will be protected as such ❤
I was saving the episode as it’s the last of the year and what a cool one it is! Glad the original owner found a way to utilize the space he had, now there is this interesting skinny house. Great people can now stay there and experience this unique place. See how creative you can be with limited space. Great place to end the year! Oh yes, you need to stay there.
I've seen much skinnier houses where I live in Japan. I think the skinniest house here is only 6 feet wide! It is because, of course, this country has half the population of America within the land area of California (ie. very crowded).
A few of them funny houses around. Grudge house Alameda ca, seen the house and herd the story as a kid always cracked me up .
In Pasadena on Michigan and E Maple there’s another skinny house. A bit wider that this one. It manages to have a garage and driveway with the house cantilevered over it! So yeah, it’s about as wide as a 1&1/2 car garage.
What a skinny Skinny House! I enjoyed the tour as well as meeting the owner. :)
Every house needs an "Elvis Room"! I do!
Love this charming house! Also love your content.
I love crazy architecture. Thanks for the inside look!
Awesome House !! Thank You so much for the House Tour !
We appreciate you coming along for the tour! 😊
What great place! I would love to drink a Guinness on that balcony!
That was fun! Lived in Long Beach combined twenty five years... Such a great place to call home.❤😊
Okay... (1) 860 square feet of living space anywhere in LA is practically a McMansion. (2) That is the coolest shower I have ever seen! (3) You two should Definitely book it for a stay. Heck, I'm thinking about it for the next time I'm in LA and everyone I know lives in the Valley, Lol.
"McMansion" 😂 The Skinny House has so many fun details! And it's probably way more comfortable than the Los Feliz Mansion, haha...
This is in my hometown, and I still learn new things about it every day. Love LB!
It’s super cool! Yes, I’d love to see you stay there. 😊
What about the spite house in Alameda California?
Love it! Is there a basement? I was curious about the utilities.
The two of your are awesome ❤
Yes stay in the house
Larry
@ Yea, I forget I’m from Connecticut, it’s all basements
Mover's nightmare, moving furniture in and out of that place.
I love it? There's a skinny Victorian in Alameda, CA. I can't remember but I think it's between 7' and 10' wide. I hope it's still there.
A few people have mentioned the one is Alameda! We'll have to check it out!
@OddityOdysseys whoops, I see I put a question mark after "I love it." I love it!!! There, fixed it
Drew and Bethany love your reels thank you!
Very cool, glad someone preserved it!
Wish it was on Vacasa.
This house is adorable! I love the color of the bathroom . It is about the same square footage as a single wide mobile home. I could happily live in it.
Very cool!! Great job guys👍👍👍👍👊👊👊
Thank you so much!
That is absolutely an awesome place, hope you do a video if you stay in it overnight. Love the month of Tuesday too. Thanks for sharing this, have a great weekend.
This house is Great! Love the balcony.
The balcony is awesome!
I absolutely love that house❤, i don't need big spaces more coziness and the roof terrace was a great surprise😍, greets from germany 😊
This is not the skinniest house in California.
There is a house in Alameda, CA. Called the Spite house, it's on Broadway Ave.... I believe it's 8' feet wide. Go check it out!!!!
So happy when I seen your video pop up ♥️. You two should stay at the Skinny House.
I've lived in LB my whole life and when we were kids my dad used to take us to look at the skinny house from outside just for fun! I had forgotten all about this house and I still live in in LB just not close to that area anymore, Now I gotta take my kids cause this just left my brain a long time ago!! Thanks for sharing!😉
That's such a fun memory! Hopefully you guys will get the chance for a little family adventure to check it out soon. 😊
Love it my favorite oddity fam nice house for a family 💙♥️🧡
You should absolutely book a stay in the Skinny House, Bethany and Drew! 👍 Your tour revealed that it's a very liveable-appearing space.
We'd love to make it happen! Perhaps a Part 2 will be coming soon :)
I love your show it's so much fun
The kitchen isn’t my taste but I do LOVE it… it looks almost like a cartoon kitchen… beautiful home. Absolutely amazing.
OMG, I think I've driven by this place many times. I deliver for Amazon and deliver in Long Beach a lot. Yeah I an see missing this place being so thin.
It can be easily missed! Hopefully you'll be able to see it next time you're out. :)
I love this house!!! Stay in it!! ❤❤
Amazing. My daughter and family lived several different places in Long Beach for years. I thought we had walked everywhere and seen everything. Thank for a great video.
We hope you guys get the chance to check it out one day!
there's a house in Alameda, similar, skinny
lol. Okay! So Many times You Both have led me to Go Discover Amazing places… However, This One I already knew about and have driven past!… It’s just blocks from a buddies apt in Long Beach. That said, I’ve Never been inside! So Bravo!… Thank You for taking me Inside!… Keep up the Fantastic Work.
4920 Del Rio Road in Sacramento is 8ft wide at one point (12ft at it's widest). Check it out...
Check out the wedge in millport, Scotland, the narrowest in the world
That is so neat. Who knew.
Great video! I am a native of SoCal and thought I had explored it but you guys keep coming up with things I have not seen. Any chance you will be doing a video on any of the active oil wells within the cities? Please keep exploring!!!
It's funny you should mention the oil wells/rigs - that's actually a topic we've been looking into!

I have a house built in 1926. Not a lot of closet space in my house. People didn't have a lot of space in those days.
I used to live a block away from this famous house.
Really cool. Thank you.
Wishing y'all and the kitties happy holidays ❤️
The kitties say hello!
Love the house. I could live there. 😊❤
It's a wonderful place!
Ain’t watched yet but is this house in Oakland?
Edit. There is a few houses in Oakland just as skinny. They always tripped me out lol
I❤it. Have ya'll ever done the Dingbat homes or the Spite homes? 😊
These explorations you do are great, I recommend on visiting Norco CA, which is like a western town with people riding horses on trails, it was also the site where a chaotic bank robbery and shootout took place called the Norco Shootout of 1980
Thanks for sharing.
Please do a video on Annie's Canyon in SD.
i live 5 minutes away driving 😂 20 minute walk … he’s not lying about the apartments bathroom & kitchens being smaller. I was born & raised out here… my apt I’m in now was built in 1920
Love this channel
So nice to see you guys again. Great house.
Thanks for watching!
Cool home & episode.
On a more substantial note.
I really enjoyed this video.
Thank you.😂👍
Subscribed.👍
Thank you so, so much!
There's one in downtown Huntington Beach but I think the actual structure is 12 ft wide, built about 2010; the inside dimension is about 10 ft across. It was on an odd-sized corner lot so it had to get a building code variance (not enough 'setback' from the property lines), but it also has some efficient use of space inside. Top floor (3rd floor) is a bedroom & half-bath with a balcony. Its on a fairly busy corner so not something I would expect to be used as a full-time residence.
Really great episode - you guys should stay there 😊
I love it!! BUT I would need to paint!😆
interesting! Thanks for sharing.
Very cool guys neat find
This house is amazing!
Did the owner read " the narrowest house in the nation", ? Or only in CA ?
Watching from the UK, I'm thinking, yep looks like a nice terraced house :)
I walk past this house often. It’s easy to miss, even on foot!
How amazing.
Hmmmmmmmmmmm, nice production, live in Orange County and need to drive and see this.
Johnny Tyler wearing...Johnny Tyler 😂
This house has made it safely through big earthquakes. It was extremely well built.
I live in Long Beach that house is right next to Rivera’s Mexican restaurant which serves delicious food. I love looking at that house
Yall should do a video about the 7014 vista del mar house in playa del rey
Awesome epi guys! U guys should stay for tonite!
Love the energy there too ✨
Hey I didn't know nicholas cage owned the skinny house
hey I love the house very nice and different ❤❤
Hey do stay guys!
Definitely stay there ❤
Love it plaster walls ? Its a fort compared to the cheap homes natde today
I appraised this house in 1987. I recall that the width is slightly less than the 10 feet.
Great video, ideal for people that don't need much
