At 77 She Sold Half Of Her Stuff To Live In Her Downstairs Bedroom Tiny Home On Wheels

Penny sold over half of her possessions to live simply and tiny in her tiny home on wheels. I am often asked about lofted areas and ways around not having one. I think her setup is a perfect example of someone finding a great solution to that problem! Also, she mentions wanting to sell/trade this particular tiny home. It looks as though she already sold this tiny home in the time from shooting to posting.

I haved lived in a tiny home for 6 to 8 weeks over 11 summers while visiting UK while i lived abroad ..the secret is to be super tidy and dont buy anything unless essential

[@Shayna11NM]

I'm not near 77 yet, but when I am, I want to be like this woman! I was a widow at 30 and lost our big, 3 bed, 2 bath home after he died. I've been single for a decade now. This place looks like something my cat, dog and I could call home.

[@lyndaporter9156]

I was thinking about getting a tin house too. There are some amazing styles, but, now I've been following van life and am considering living that way instead. There are too many many snags /laws and regulations for tiny homes. I just know that I can't afford apartment life and my city is not tiny home friendly. I wish you and your fur babies the very best of luck. 🐾🐾🐈🐕 Sorry for your loss at such a young age.

[@Shayna11NM]

@@lyndaporter9156 Thank you, Lynda. In the grand scheme of things, I think that's why we met at 16, moved in together at 19 and got married at 21. Maybe somehow we knew we needed to live it up while we had the chance. (I still miss him every day though.)

I burst out laughing when Penny said she doesn't have cable because she is cheap...lol. I like her home it looks comfortable. She can easily change her dog food storage bin to one that fits into the cupboard. Be well Penny!.

Ms. Penny, your home is absolutely beautiful and appears to be very efficient. Thank you for sharing.

Hello patty how are you doing!!

[@maried3717]

My sister is going to California as I write this to rescue a 76 yr old woman who has been living in her car for over a year. Her employer went under and she lost her job, mobile home of 19 years, and all of her clothes and possessions when she fell behind in her storage rent. I put up money for her to stay in a motel with complimentary breakfast until my sister can reach her. She is not the first we have worked to keep from a worse fate. We ourselves are not well off, but have been fortunate to keep our heads above water. Family and friends have to pull together to keep going. Not everyone is benefiting from the economic climate we are in today. Being a senior and homeless after a life time of work is not deserved by anyone.

Tell that to dave ramsey, he is against helping family who fall behind.

[@maried3717]

@@Mongo-ui1ll Ramsay has good ideas....just no heart. A lot of people fall behind through no fault of their own....they do all the right hings and someone gets sick and everything crashes down from there....others fall on hard times because they are careless...don't prepare and want everything NOW! Others won't work to help themselves.....Can't throw everyone in the same bucket.

Penny, your tiny house is so charming. I'm 71, and chose a toy hauler (to renovate) as my home and live in an RV park. It is the way I figured out to live tiny (without a loft) within the city limits, so I'm close to work. I too love living small, and like you, can't imagine living any other way. Can't wait to see what you do to accomplish your single floor tiny home. 🏡

[@bryanjason1980]

How are you doing 😊😊

[@jgjg3848]

You could also run a rail across the ceiling in the bedroom to hang more clothing up. Then, you could have all the clothing you'd want. Could also hang sheets/blankets on hangers up there too.

[@Wolfy39565]

Sometimes u dont need a lot to be happy

[@hollyslaughter5505]

Hey Penny I’m having one built without a loft by Incredible Tiny Homes in Newport TN I chose Randy Jones as my builder because they were able to incorporate my ideas into a beautiful spacious home. I love your galley kitchen and walk thru bathroom.

[@MarcP5267]

holly slaughter I’m considering Tiny Homes myself. Do they do all the finishes etc?

[@ZeoCyberG]

They'll do just about everything, option range from 16' THOW shell/kit for lowest possible pricing that starts at $15K and completed homes that start at $20K on up... and will do full custom if your budget allows... You can check out their website at incredibletinyhomes.com They also have a Facebook and KZbin channel...

[@bark8650]

@Dill Rogerz He is awesome but, Andy Bennet has been doing similar inexpensive homes for years. Check out www.corehousingsolutions.com you will be shocked they beat out Randy Jones!

[@evelynmellichamp818]

I live in Tennessee, too and have been thinking of this, especially with a downstairs bedroom- actually for when my dog gets older and can't climb to a loft.

[@rhondaw6503]

I am in VA and still a few years away from possibly going into a tiny home. I also want one without a loft. Do you mind me asking how much yours will cost? I might contact them. thank you!
