This is the story of Erin and her 300-square-foot tiny house, nicknamed the Olive House. She built it for retirement after downsizing and embracing van life. After living in the van, she says her new 300-square-foot tiny house feels like a mansion!
Erin has four children and seven grandkids and has been living on her own for 10 years now, so she decided to build a debt-free lifestyle embracing tiny house living. Now, she enjoys more freedom and the ability to spend money on fun things. It all started with building out her camper van, and now she enjoys life in a tiny house village in Mt. Laguna, California, called Tiny House Block.
This is a tiny house village designed as transitional housing for those currently experiencing homelessness.
The goal is for the village to help residents become self-sufficient through the offerings at the village. It’s located in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Currently, they are not accepting new applicants until March 1, 2021. According to their website, there is already an extensive resident waiting list.
The Oaks is the second phase of the ESCAPE Tampa Bay Tiny House Village in Florida. This expansion is named for the ancient oak trees on the property and is larger than the original Village phase. Like phase one, all lots are leased and only ESCAPE tiny houses are permitted, creating a cohesive community aesthetic. The development features newly designed ESCAPE units alongside classic models. Units occasionally become available for resale.

This is the story of how tiny house villages are being built for Seattle’s homeless by the Low Income Housing Institute and its volunteers and donors.
When they built the first tiny house, the first homeless person who got it cried (of joy) because it was the first time they’d been able to shut a door in years. Not only that but also the first time to be able to have a place to leave their belongings. And the freedom and lightness of not having to carry everything everywhere.
The exterior is finished with cedar plank siding and black trim. Inside, you’ll find a living area, kitchen, bathroom, downstairs bedroom, an upstairs sleeping loft, and an additional storage loft.
The Atticus sleeps up to three people. Please enjoy, learn more, and re-share below. Thank you!
