      Probably stairs. When you get older (like me), you don't like having to climb stairs, especially to use the bathroom.

      and then when they get old and sit on wheelchair 24/7 . . they will say " I need more spaces . no furniture . no more cabinets . I need my own room at ground floor because I do not need the stairs anymore ." .. believe me .. this is will be in their future

    LOVE LOVE LOVE this house!! So many cozy little spaces!! Having separate rooms makes you feel like there is more space, and everyone can be busy in their own little part of the house. This is my favorite house by far. Lovely little find!! Thanks for sharing!!

    I built a tiny home and we lived in it for 5 years. The largest home we have lived in was 2200 square feet. Now we live in an 800 square foot small home. I have worked on houses where the Master suite was 1500 square feet. From my experience, I would have to agree with you. A house between 600 and 1000 square feet is big enough to live in without feeling like you have been sent to the corner and yet small enough that it is easy and economical to maintain.
    Like the Good Book says, Keep your eye simple and your whole body will be bright. Matthew 6:22

    I have looked at many videos of tiny houses and most seemed cold and uncomfortable; especially the living area. This cottage was oozing with personality, warmth, style and grace...If I lived alone, it would be a place that I would never feel alone because it has so much personality. I adored all the nooks and crannies, especially the "man cave!" I would rename it my "woman cave!" Finding something like this in Houston would be a true "diamond in the rough."

      Same here. I lived in a large, ranch style home as a kid growing up. Even when I became an adult, it always felt too big. We moved into a smaller home and I actually liked it better. I'm just a cozy type person tho..fireplace going, cute comfy furnishing and enjoying good company. I dont need a manchion bc it's just a glorified storage facility 😐

    • @ms.fionamae1356
      @ms.fionamae1356 4 года назад +1

      I agree, cozy doesn't have to be cramped or have unusable space. All of our kids are grown and it's just the 2 of us with our dog. I would LOVE to live in a house like this or very similar in a quiet spot. It will do my head, heart and soul good. I can't handle the noise like before.

    I like this. My husband and I bought a 500 square foot home. One level. We have no children. However, it was 2005 when we bought the house. In 2013 I was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis and now I am in a wheelchair. It's very hard to maneuver myself through the doorways. She is right when she says you need an outdoor get away. I wheel myself onto the front porch everyday. Mostly for my sanity! Lol. The house is white painted clapboard with a brand new green metal roof. A year after we moved in, my husband installed a white wooden picket fence with an attached arbor. The comments regarding the fence were overwhelming! We call our home Harmony Breeze Cottage. Just a little piece of happiness I wanted to share.

    I live in a small 540 sf studio apartment, which is to the side of someone's home. I have my own adorable patio with a nice gate which locks with a deadbolt, a separate entrance off of the patio with a security screen (making it feel safe enough and comfortable enough to sleep with my front door open). It comes complete with a stackable washer and dryer, two closets and a kitchen with lots of storage and a full-size refrigerator, as well as a full-size bathroom. I'm very happy here in my little haven :)
    I have always loved the tiny homes, but as for myself, I think a home with a 500 sf range work best.

      CHRISTINA WHITE My husband and I are retired, and just bought a house that was a little less than half our old one. We had a closet so big it held a vanity and small chest in addition to the clothes for 2 people! 5 bedrooms, 2 dens, dining room, a front parlor. We couldn’t wait to get smaller house...Goodwill and a thrift store nearby got really lucky! Our kids and grandkids don’t live there any longer. It just seemed so wasteful. I’d love to find a small cottage like this one!

  • @graceamazing5981
    @graceamazing5981 5 лет назад +9

    Loved this little cottage and thought many of the negative comments far too critical for the
    'mechanics' done for our viewing and information. The only complaint I'd consider serious
    is the layout of the kitchen, especially can't imagine canning with almost NO counter space
    esp.next to the stove !!! Excellent idea on switching dining / living room space! ALSO the
    upper level shows lots of 'master bedroom' space ... (silly complaint! as well as 'supervising
    children'- i like keeping my little ones safe & happy!) This video was a colorful treat !! =)
    Thank you for posting. Really loved seeing it!

      @gravewalker1632 5 лет назад +29

      She wasn't trying to sell the house, just staying the night with her family. She was kind enough to give us a tour, which she didn't have to. If it was YOU or ME doing a walk thru, we would be critiquing various things from our own point of view and how we could personalize it. Actually, if you ever did a walk thru with a real estate agent, both the agent and the client would be doing the same thing.
      Again, she wasn't trying to sell the place !!! If you want more info then go to the listing at Air BnB, Cookamonga, Georgia and see if they can do a better presentation.
      And, NO... it does not have a master bedroom. But, forgive me for saying that one of the areas could be converted. Was that to harsh ??

      Grave Walker Shutup I agree with Denell. The whole time I was thinking "stop showing her and show more of the house." Switching from room to room and not showing where some of those rooms are in relation to the others was annoying. Maybe I'm spoiled by other channels that do house tours how they are actually suppose to be done. I dont care about what she thinks should be done I just want to see the house and its layout.

      For a family of 8 our 4 bedroom home is a small house. Tiny house=200-400 square ft. 300x8=2,400 square ft. Bam! My family per person lives in a smaller amount of space than most of the people in the tiny house movement.

      Raymond Etheridge You guys say that, but my grandfather grew up on 3 room shack with eight kids. 2 bedrooms, 1 for the boys, 1 for the girls. The main room had the kitchen/dining/ living room and my great grandparents bed. Don't tell me you can't fit 8 kids on a small space. We did it 100 years age, and people generally turned out fine.

      Darrell barron Most of those starting prices are without upgrades. They charge extra for customising the tiny house to make it comfortable. Without those upgrades, a tiny house is not much better than an ice shack. The cost piles up when all the upgrades are factored in.

    I find cottages charming and functional. I do not like tiny houses. I feel that they are overpriced and not practical. There's little room to move around, there's no room to play for kids, there's no room to sew, or can, they aren't conducive to having a well stocked pantry (which I consider to be essential to running a home). I like cottages and small wartime houses much better for a family.
    You don't need a 10,000 sq foot mansion, but I suspect that the tiny house movement will lead to a lot of divorces down the road. That's a lot of togetherness.

I once lived in a very small house with another person, in a secluded mountain location. Kitchen/living room/everything else was all one room, there was a small separate sleeping area. We had bathtub outside on a covered porch, and an outhouse down the hill from the house. Big wood-burning cookstove.

      I agree. And we have pets. We have wood floors and then we use a throw carpet in the area of the living room where we set. It is colder, but I'd much rather have it a little cooler and be able to just sweep and mop every thing clean. I don't care how often you clean carpets, unless you live totally alone and have no life, the things are nasty. That's been proven. They can hide mold and mildew too. And carpet is really expensive when you consider how easy it is to ruin.

    • @lindab265
      @lindab265 5 лет назад +1

      Keith U Keith, carpets are not easy to keep clean even if you're a clean freak like me. Area rugs are actually easier since they can be switched out after awhile or cleaned and allowed to dry seperately.... If you clean a carpet with a professional machine thoroughly you can't walk on it until it's completely dry, which isn't practical. We had carpets in the house we bought and got rid of them ASAP. They might be fine in some rooms but harder to keep clean in high traffic areas, such as a living room or den. And studies have shown carpets have things in them you can't even see with your eyes, even if you keep your house clean. I'd suggest someone putting down new floors, put in a heated floor system IF that's in their budget to do, instead of carpet. if not, use area rugs where the floor gets coldest; OR a combination of heated floors AND area rugs, is the best.

    We had a large old victorian house but my mom likes those cut outs too. She asked her husband (the guy I called dad) to cut a hole in between the living room and the kitchen (saying she's social too if people are over she would like to not feel trapped in the kitchen like the maid). He said sure no problem (but of course weeks went by) she went and took an ax (he's a construction worker he had a whole shed full of tools) and she cut a hole in the wall. Really ticked him off saying why would you do that now we have a hole in the wall. She said more incentive for it to get done. Anyway she got her cut out and in the middle a table was made within two days that day included lol. A round table so it served as a dinner table as well as a cutout where we could all converse back and forth. I miss that house I lived in it until I was 18 from the time I was four. It was a great idea and it saved on having to get a table by doing that. It didn't need legs because the wall served to keep it up.

      Yes, the prices of tiny homes are insane. I purchased a 570' small cottage on an acre of land in the woods, near a river in a beautiful area. IT has 250' covered porch, and a 110' sleeping loft, bedroom, 110' shed, root cellar and carport. I bought it for 65K . It did not need much work - for me it was about painting, and adding new appliances. It came with all appliances but I bought new ones. I add to it here and there to personalize it as i see fit. I have my 8x18 tiny home parked on my land also. I may use that as a guest house one day or move it to another location to create a get away. i paid 10K for my tiny home and added upgrades on my own. I hope people stop and consider that it may be a better idea to purchase a real home instead of one on wheels that is way over priced.

And got rid of ALOT of the furniture. But I still kept some of my antique stuff, including depression glass, jadite, etc. I've always had a small dog and now 2 cats with it. I haven't even unpacked ALOT of that stuff I kept in this small 2 bedroom house I live in now. It's hard enough keeping up with the cat hair much less dusting the rest of that stuff.
      I'm retired now and have other interests. I preferred to have a craftroom with cabinets & drawers to keep my stuff in. And a big open area where others can come and play too. I have hardwood floors too. And I love the 2 cats I inherited, but once they are passed no more.

I rent a house with the same predicament though. My new landlord (his grandmother can no longer manage all of the properties including the one I'm living in) has been very accommodating despite the scattering of tabby-colored accessories. . Since I resolved myself to spending the final years of my career working for a non-profit organization providing clinical services for little kids, I've found that my income is non conducive to achieving the status of home ownership. Up until about the last year, tiny houses gave me a little hope until the price of living off grid rose to an average over $100,000 for a house on its own land. Unfortunately, contrary to the theory of the pretty woman presenting this video, realistic prices for cottages I've looked at have been even more, and I've checked in areas where housing tends to be much less (which means a long commute to work or one that is really unrealistic. This person appears to have stumbled onto a situation that is the exceptance to the rule (sorry, spell check couldn't help me here!) I do love the idea of living in something a little less claustrophobic, though.

    I agree with you. I love this house. Most of the Tiny Homes are so small and expensive.

    I have always loved a cottage. And this one is very well organized. The balcony and porches are wonderful. Thank you for videoing this home. I totally understand why you were excited to share this cottage with us. (I am really surprised and disappointed at the pettiness of some of the comments. Who are these people? Not your usual viewers and subscribers I think. Please don’t take those words to heart.)

    This cottage reminds me of Snow White or a fairy house from a movie. It’s charming however I feel like I would feel depressed because of the colors. I would paint it white and stay away from antiques and those carpets. I do love it though because it’s way bigger than a tiny house and it won’t feel cluttered I love the back of the house and how it has a deck. 😍😍😍💕

      How different people are, I love it for exactly the reasons you don't like it, the colours, the antique pieces and so on. I felt we don't get a chance to look at the full layout but I don't think this lady has much experience doing this and just shared a place she had found. Still a nice chance to peek inside.

    I just sold my 3 bedroom, 3 bath home and downsized to a vintage farmhouse that is 570 sq ft. It is perfect for one person. Years ago many local families lived in my farmhouse before it had electricity and before there was a running water and a bathroom. Amazing. I also bought a tiny home for 10K, about 3 years ago for emergency preparedness. It is really sweet, 8x18' with 2 lofts. But it is WAY TO TINY for me to live in full time unless I ran out of all options. I also have a few friends that have already up sized from their tiny homes. They are cute but you can go nuts actually living in one. I would advise anyone to shop around and buy a small home instead of going with a tiny home. You will be much more comfortable. Take advice from someone who has had several large home, a current tiny home as well as a current small home. Go small. Just my 2 cents.

      I also down sized. Moved from 2200 sf to 550 on 1/2 acre in the woods.. love love love it!

      I would love to find something like you have. I live in a small condo, but between the real estate taxes and association dues I HAVE to work (and I'm a senior citizen!)

      Thank you so much for sharing.. I was thinking the same

    • @nnu110
      @nnu110 6 лет назад +1

      Sounds like we have similar lives. My old large home was the same size as yours and now we both have small homes within just a couple of sq. feet of size of each other. I am also in the woods on an acre of land in Western NC. Where are you located?

    • @nnu110
      @nnu110 6 лет назад +4

      Yes, small vs tiny is wonderful. I hope more people would consider buying small homes instead of going tiny, After seeing so many people and several friends abandon their tiny homes for small homes, I think tiny home life is only a phase. The price of tiny homes has gone off the charts- as far as expensive. Are you kidding me? With a stick built home you have land and in most cases property taxes are less than renting a LEGAL spot for your tiny home. A small home gives you more space and options. People seem to have fallen for the "dream" of tiny house living. When you are going on 90 days living in a box (especially in the winter months) cute soon becomes cramped. Sweet becomes stir crazy. Imagine years in a box. Some can do it but if you shop around you can find small homes on land at very reasonable prices. I am not downing people for living in a tiny house but if you take time to consider your options you may find a way of life that is much better for you in the long run.
