I ran into this at the tiny houses category over at Reddit and just had to share it with you.
This is one man’s tiny cabin for minimalist living in the Smokies.
It was originally bought as a getaway cabin in the mountains.
At about 570 sq. ft. with an open floor plan and a great location… I think it’s a great place to live simply in… How about you?

Minimalist Living in a Tiny Cabin

You can check out the rest of the cabin (and read the rest of the story) below:
Couch and Fireplace (Sure beats TV)

I’d much rather get to watch the fireplace than TV just about any day. This is a great spot for reading, chilling, etc.
Living Area with Desks, Guitar, and Bed

I like how it’s an open floor plan with no separation although I’d do it differently if I were living here with others. But man oh man what an awesome little cabin to live the simple life in. It’s almost like a modern-day Thoreau cabin… Only the necessities (plus computer and Internet!).

Second Desk for Tinkering and Reading

Unfortunately, there are no available photos of the bathroom and kitchen (or floor plan).
How would you like to live simply and debt-free in something like this rather than in a crowded cookie cutter community? Let us know in the comments.
