Erica and Steve purchased a 24-foot tiny house that was already built and set up at the Orlando Lakefront tiny house community. They wanted to simplify their lives and escape the debt from their previous large home. Going tiny has nearly paid for itself and given them financial freedom.
They appreciate being part of a community where they know their neighbors. The house meets all their needs: a king-sized bed in the loft bedroom, a living room that doubles as a work-from-home office, and a full kitchen for home-cooked meals.

Lessons from This Home
- Buying Pre-Built Saves Time: Purchasing a tiny house already set up in a community let Erica and Steve skip the construction process and move in immediately
- Tiny Living Can Eliminate Debt: By selling their large home and downsizing, they went from being in significant debt to nearly paying off their tiny house
- Communities Provide Connection: Living in a tiny house village means knowing neighbors and having built-in social opportunities—something often lost in traditional subdivisions
- Alternating Stairs Have Tradeoffs: While “witch’s stairs” save floor space, they can be difficult for pets to navigate, something to consider when designing with animals in mind
- Florida Climate Expands Living Space: In warm climates, outdoor space effectively extends a tiny home’s footprint since entertaining and socializing can happen outside year-round

I love the layout, but the windows would have to be bigger for me. I need lots of natural light.
Hi Karen, good point! How about the windows on this tiny house from ESCAPE?
