10’x30’ Abingdon Inspiration Model Tour on The Beach Community 🏡🇺🇸🤗😉😲🏝️🏖️

[@kathyinwv250]

I'd put decorative grasses on that mound between the beach & the Grove. It will look like sand dunes.

[@chezmoi42]

Yes, there are so many pretty decorative grasses that would give that look.

[@robinsmith8252]

Affordable living allows you to be creative. What a gorgeous outdoor space.

[@lesialepleyfail9361]

I've seen solar that doesn't attach to House. It is in a tall stand in the shape of a flower and in bad weather it coils itself closed and goes in the ground storm passes it comes back up and opens and follows the sun! That's a cool solar system that protects itself.

[@chezmoi42]

I looked for it, there are YT videos about it, thanks. Looks like it costs close to $31K installed in the US, but it is an ingenious idea, and may come down in price as the idea becomes more common.

[@paulaneuspickel8981]

Love the house you showed beautiful. I also like the beach one and I think him painting the concrete makes it look like sand. Randy glad to see you back tonight. Amanda are you feeling OK, sound a little horse. Have a great night 🌙

[@deborahdavidson1220]

That sounds expensive.

Hey Randy and Amanda. You are doing an amazing job!! When you build the lodge, consider having a laundry room, a community kitchen, etc. How about a community garden, composting area, maybe a shared library/media center?

[@robinsmith8252]

Definitely a small laundry facility/area. 5 or 6 washers and dryers would be sufficient. One larger for blankets and bigger items. Total passive income.

[@rondadotson5518]

Hey Randy and Amanda .was you going to put in a community storm shelter .

[@deborahk.2490]

I love the library and laundry idea.

[@susanbeals7597]

@@rondadotson5518 - There hasn't been a storm big enough to need to shelter, near ITH, in over 100 years. They are sheltered by the Mountain range to the South and East of ITH. Any big storms dump their fury over land before it gets there.

[@susanbeals7597]

I think there were a couple of residents wanting to put loaner library shelves at the far end of the ITH post office.

[@t4qjjqdq5y6]

Love the one level Abington. Would do a day bed & coffee table that converts to table/desk with storage. I don't need for much except for a place to craft while enjoying Netflix. Then gardening outdoors would top off my lifestyle!

[@samanthamariefreeman335]

I am totally 'Twitterpated' with the Abbingdon, OMG!! It is awesome, beautiful, fabulous!!

[@donnariggi6584]

We use the same arched awnings for the windows in the back of our incred-i-box. That way you can leave the windows open when it rains.

That little house looked totally class! Loved the cute door awning - looks like they are available at Walmart, even!

[@faithhope2212]

The Abingdon is so unique....I love the smell of wood and just beautiful. Good ideas for decorating it...lots of nature. 🤗💗

[@marylouvonminden7716]

Again I wish u guys were up here in Ontario, Canada. We r slowly opening up to Tiny House communities but the progress is very slow and u can’t depend on the gov to change. All the improvements u hav done with ur layouts/constructions have been very helpful to me with the construction of my own tiny house. Thank u for all the uplifting posts!! 😊

[@sandykoenig1666]

Again!!!!! another great fun, interesting and informative video. The Mayor of the Beach has really dolled up the little backyard. Love the fence and plants. I would want a 10' porch on my place like this lady did. I can picture hanging ferns and such and some canvas curtains tied at the polls and let down when the sun is too bright or you just want privacy. Wow People buy you a Tiny home from Randy.

[@NadiaKilrick]

I absolutely love the exterior look of this one. That 'swoop' over the door is dreamy. I can almost smell all that wood. I love the way y'all think. I do recycle my grey water, but only for plants. Did I say I love the look of this home? 😄😉

[@lisacabana6058]

I also love this house.Wish I could could afford to downsize.

[@NadiaKilrick]

@@lisacabana6058 I hear you, Lisa. If I could, I'd be in Newport as fast as they could build this for me. I'd love to get out of my 5-er and into something with solid walls again. If only... :)

[@janlint7434]

Mike-your place is really taking shape! Love 💕 all that you have done. Thanks Randy & Amanda for showing the beach. I miss my tiny house so much. Hopefully I’ll be able to get there next month??? Love 💗 everything y’all do! Have a great rest of your day!

[@paulaneuspickel8981]

Love the houses you showed. The incredi box was done up nice. Love the other house. Mike house is amazing, love the painted concrete, makes it look like real sand. His house looks like it's at the beach ⛱️.

[@MC-tg1xk]

I love the outside of this one including the bricks! My cats would be climbing up on to the roof and sliding down! I love the porch!

[@chezmoi42]

Oh, lordy, wouldn't they love that? We have an old ladder-type stair going up to an upstairs egress door, and the cats love to go up there to sun themselves, then jump up into the gutters to patrol the house. Years ago, one of them found a way to get into the adjoining neighbor's attic, come down the stairs, and visit them. They closed hole that right off!

[@zedicus6519]

The Abington is just too small for me but it’s truly beautiful for what it is. I actually live close to Abington VA. It’s really cool that you guys are bringing culture into the build. So much hard work is going into your desert grassland beach. You really make me want to take a tour one day!

[@seawrightstudios]

Love the beach house with fencing, porch, and tiki bar!

[@maryharrison6776]

I love this tiny house. The bathroom is what sold me.

[@chezmoi42]

Doubt that they would include the bump-out on their standard model. It would have to be a remodel.

[@tteric67]

I like your train of thought for future sustainability! It would be a Incredi-GREEN- box! ❤️❤️❤️

[@vickilind5805]

Thank you Randy and Amanda for all you do for others. May God keep blessing you and your company.

[@jeanmyers8817]

i like the kitchen area better in this, looks like you could have a stove and a reg size fridge in it. plenty of living room space as well. i love it has a bath/shower combo as well :)

[@susanbeals7597]

Bet there is room under the bathroom countertop for a combo washer/dryer!

[@sonyacarmichael8146]

I love the kitchen area on this model. Would prefer a seperate bedroom. Love the deck. Extra living space..

[@cindysutton8632]

Love this Abingdon!! Also love the countertop idea!! So creative!

[@patriciatwalsh4479]

I loved the home with porch all wood. Love the bathroom layout. The Mayor of the Beach sure has a great outdoor space he is really Created a space relax in outside. I hope Randy & Amanda have a great day. I love seeing Ace out & about . Miss my dogs they had passed on in the last two years. I’m older will not replace them. It is a pleasure seeing Ace out about with both of you.

[@jillgott6567]

I think the countertop idea Amanda described would look fantastic in a bathroom such as in the Grove or the Forest. What a cool look 😎 Pointing out the mini renovations tiny houses offer is great selling point .

[@suzannenagy4975]

Wow! This Abington is a show-stopper! The outside is so attractive! Makes me want to go inside and decorate! So many creative possibilities!! What fun!! Y'all rock!!!

Mike's place looks AWESOME ! Love what he did there. You know they could put a Sofa Bed in the Cottage house. The Sofa Beds they have now are easy to open and close. Really like the bath tub in the tounge box space as well. Really there are so many Options with these homes.

[@tammycruz8189]

This is absolutely gorgeous I love it .,. I love the beach 🏖️

[@susanfitch1994]

Ooh amanda i love your idea of the pinecones, stones dry flowers etc! In the countertopsl

[@peterpanex3663]

Love the random bricks in the stucco. The entire area around the front door is such an attractive feature!

[@susanpratt3290]

I like the look of this house, with the wood on the bottom half and the stucco on the top, and with wood trim around the windows and doors. Love the large deck on the end with the sliding door, I would put decking on the side to the deck. Also love the long window over the sink area, and the big sliding doors to the covered porch. Also love the big sliding windows to go with the sliding doors. Put some pull down screens when you want some screens, or outdoor curtains, that you can open up or close. A picnic table on that deck and some outdoor furniture will be nice on that deck. Love the size of that deck. This is one sweet house. She has a really nice neighbor, in Mike. You all need a big pond behind the houses. I love what Mike has done with his lot, and the back yard. He has gotten a lot done. Love the colorful bench and the shark, and the TIKI Bar over the hitch, great idea. Love that triangle cover with the lights. The sandy color on Mike's concrete is a great idea, like being on the sand at the beach.

[@debrayoung9982]

I love all the ideas you guys are throwing around to move the whole tiny house movement. ❤️

[@ursulamorrow4964]

I love this design. Looks very roomy for a tiny house. All the room I need. And the bathroom I absolutely love with the tub. This model is the one I would want. The sliding glass door put the perfect view and natural lighting inside. The deck I love. I wish I could have one. I wouldn't need nothing else. I live in Las Vegas with someone else. Fixed income can't afford my own place. But im gone keep this tiny home in my prayers. You are so amazing. ☮️💚😊

I was born and raised in Michigan too, my Dad was German descent and my mother Hungarian. We always vacationed in Northern Michigan every summer, tent camping with 5 kids. We loved it. At age 29 though, after i graduated from Nursing School we moved to Texas, DFW area. When I retired we moved 100 miles west and live in cattle country. I love it.

This was an especially great video. I really enjoyed your visiting with a resident, looking inside a home in progress and as always the big dreams.

I need more videos on this model! I love all of the character. I’m 25 and I hope I can afford one in a few years as my first home that I will eventually use as a rental. Still have some convincing to do with the mom 😂

[@paigeshirley1744]

This home has a unique lay out. Hope the owner will let you video after they settle in it

[@deborahk.2490]

There are solar panels that come in different colors that work with diffuse light. They can be used as windows, too. Look up diffuse light solar panels. They are really expensive at this time. I found out about them when gas prices went up to $4/gal after G.W. Bush invaded Iraq. I'm waiting for a day when these colored solar panels are made to look like stained glass creations. ;)

[@dawn7882]

I'm off grid and I water my plants with my grey water indoors and out. But I don't use anything toxic. This is a beautiful home

[@ericnorthman9410]

I like the aqua house next door. I love how he did the front porch like a pier.. I grew up on the Great Lakes - grey skies 75 percent of the time even during the summer

[@hilarygreek7830]

The bathroom looks very accessible! Roll under sink is awesome! I’d have a bed that has a motorized lift so the bed is elevated above the living room during the day and lowers at night. They have them in toy hauler RVs. I have also seen people use a garage storage mechanism for a bed that moves. For me, I would need space for a craft room. Love the aesthetics of this home!

[@kellonwheelz_66]

I've been busy these past couple weeks so I haven't had time to watch the videos and BOY have I missed you guys! 💕 Now, it's time to binge a few and attempt to do some catching up because I'm still very much in the market for a tiny home. 😊

[@susanbeals7597]

Mayor Mike - since you are an artist, consider using pink board (rigid closed-cell foam) panels for your skirting. It comes from Lowe's in big sheets that are easy to cut with heavy duty sheers or an electric bread knife, and can be painted. You could make it look like your house sits out over the water on a beach! ⛱️

[@susanbeals7597]

@@CapysGardenShop - I can see why! It's super easy to work with. A 4'x8' sheet that's 1 1/2" thick has an R value of 7.5. It's solid pink on one side and all the writing is on the other side. It's pre-marked to cut in half lengthwise, for 2'x8' panels, and an Incredibox would only need 3 panels at $42 each for 2' tall skirting. Just spray or roller paint the outer side, and install.

I grew up in Western Michigan and I hated it from November to April for all the gray, ugly skies. I lived very close to Lake Mich. ( like within 2-5miles from it) where ever I lived, so we always were dealing with lake effect snow and clouds. It was hell for me because I have S.A.D. ( seasonal affective disorder) and need sunshine. I finally, very briefly moved to Montana, which I adore because if how sunny it was and the mountains just speak to your soul and change you for the better. However, no matter the love affair with the mountains, I just totally couldn't handle the cold (like -55 with wind chills like -70 or more). So Florida here I come. I finally found "home" here. Wonderful sunshine, and plenty of water and beautiful Sandy beaches that are best in the world. All I need to do is find a place where tiny homes are allowed and built to the rigorous standards necessary to meet hurricane standards.
