🏘️ The village where her container home has neighbors


Happy Sunday! Today is all about community and small homes β€” villages, backyard cottages, park models, and a few homes that prove under 1,000 square feet is plenty. Start with this one, just listed.

🏑 Elsewhere Pods 6m Tiny Home on Wheels: An Ex-Display Pod with a Bifold Over the Bed​
About 155 sq ft on a tandem-axle trailer, with a bifold window that opens the entire wall above the bed. Listed ex-display at A$94,500.

🏘 Her Shipping Container Home in a Tiny House Village​
Martha’s no-loft container home sits in a tiny house village community β€” farmhouse kitchen, dedicated workspace, and neighbors right outside the door.

🌊 Katie’s Kottage: A 688 Sq Ft Cottage with a Reading Nook in Galveston​
A two-story cottage with cathedral ceilings, exposed beams, and a tucked-away reading nook. One of the highest click-through homes we have ever featured.

🌴 IdeaBox 400 Sq Ft Park Model: Retirement Tiny Home in Southern California​
Chris and Cathy retired early into a clean, modern 400 sq ft park model β€” open plan, big windows, full bathroom, and a community around them.

🏠 Seattle ADU Cottage: A 400 Sq Ft Backyard Home with a Murphy Bed​
Paul and Caroline built a backyard cottage, moved into it, and rented out the main house. A murphy bed does the heavy lifting.

πŸ‘― Inside the ESCAPE Villa Duplex at Palm Court, Tampa Bay​
Two homes under one roof in the Palm Court village β€” a full kitchen, a washer/dryer, a built-in queen bed with storage underneath, and a private deck on each side. A good look at how duplex living works in a tiny house community.

πŸŒ† A Creative & Modern Small House in Houston, Texas​
Tucked into a lush garden inside Loop 610, this contemporary small home has become a local favorite β€” and you can book a night in it.

πŸ“¦ Elsewhere Pods 4m Micro Home: A 103 Sq Ft Flat-Pack Pod That Installs in Days​
An insulated, glazed flat-pack shell that goes up in two to five days. Backyard office, guest room, or the start of something bigger.

πŸ“Š Are Tiny Houses a Solution or a Symptom? Researchers Spent a Year in Texas Finding Out​
Three geographers spent a year inside Texas tiny house communities. Their conclusion is more complicated β€” and more interesting β€” than either side usually admits.

"A good community, as we know, insures itself by trust, by good faith and good will, by mutual help."
~ Wendell Berry
