Gorgeous Expanding Tiny Home Opens Doors for Solo Mom & Teen

[@TinyHouseExpedition]

Meet Reggie who went tiny to help create a smooth transition out of divorce, allowing her to be a homeowner. Her custom farmhouse-inspired 36-ft tiny house features 2 bump-outs--one in the living room & one in the downstairs bedroom to create a 12' wide living space. And it’s legally permitted as a Caretaker residence on her parent’s property! 👉🏡 *More tiny house tours & stories:* kzbin.info/aero/PLlvBXhDyr9H3XQbgDHQG23m1P_7LN1yyS

LOFT IS TOO LOW

[@samantha1877]

I'd like to know cost

[@theeasterbunny61]

Who built this home And where they are located? Love the pop outs!

[@emusaurus]

animallover I reckon it cost at least $150k usd. At least. Edit: it costs 135k But she’s paying it off over 10 years, so it will probably end up being closer to 200k with the interest.

[@nancywinstead4840]

like your house alot , can you give us name of the company ? and an idea what the popouts cost ,?

[@ILOLnumber1]

I love her house and how she managed to have the best of both worlds - the ease of a standard road legal width tiny house, and then the comfort of a 12' width where she needed it most. I also love how articulate and comfortable she is on camera. I wonder what her profession is. And hooray for Canadian tiny house builders!!! :)

[@HandbagDiva]

I’ve been searching for a builder in Canada for years & haven’t liked anything I’ve seen so far; but this is beautiful. I like the bump outs they make the living space so much better.

[@paxundpeace9970]

I do think that she does work in media.

[@lordbensontattoos2022]

yea i love her house to

[@nancygustafson5776]

She works at home for FEMA

[@schelliegris7481]

It is the first Canadian one I have heard about. I am sure there are more.🇨🇦❤

[@christinarobleto1786]

This is the one drawback, it seems alot of tiny home owners either have a friend that let's them park there or they have family that let's them live there. It would be great to see stories of folks who bought land or found a way to own land not related to someone.

[@Enoo-Wynn]

This is true. I wonder if municipalities could rewrite building codes to be more welcoming to tiny homes and if smaller size lots could be offered for sale (to individuals planning to live on them NOT people planning to buy them all up to rent on airb&b!)

[@michele5695]

@@Enoo-Wynn exactly. We need affordable housing for people who need it, like people with disabilities. Instead of making landlords wealthy, we need communities of small affordable homes.

[@luisholguin605]

I am living in Colorado , park county has a lot of land for sale and the county allows tiny homes there is no minimum sqft requirements other then the ones on the 2012 building code book you can google what those are, I’m going to start building there this year little by little till it’s done I’m doing a slab foundation but it will be a tiny house to keep construction cost down I’ll probably start posting videos about it in a few months, if anyone wants to look into it the lots are fairly affordable I got mine for 25k but the prices vary out there and I don’t have anyone helping me no KZbin sponsors nothing crazy , just me my girlfriend and our one acre lot and lots of painful government loops with waiting time on permits mostly

[@sandraburlace8298]

I notice this also. More people place their tiny homes on land belonging to family or friends. That isn't an option for so many people.

[@karenwalters2586]

I would hate to be dependent on someone’s land if thy decide to sell.

[@saophaixoan7861]

I am fully impressed! It's just a complete kzbin.infoUgkxGqOCINHE0Z0E5gxzSdNi9NWGugRY5Hm2 plan with the best resources and step by step instructions . These shed plans are so satisfying as if the sheds build themselves on their own. Worthy work Ryan!

[@karenlongworth8428]

I love that people are putting real furniture instead of all benches

[@rhondah.1478]

Very beautiful tiny home, you can tell she put a lot of thought into what she wanted, and as she said, where she wanted to put her money. I love the idea of the bump outs, that does seem to offer so much extra space. I'm also a fan of downstairs bedrooms in tiny homes, so the fact she has an actual bedroom is great. Leave the loft to kids and younger folks with good knees, lol. It's awesome she was able to park it on her family's land and that in return she is using the advantage of being so close to her parents to help them out and take care of them. It's also pretty cool that her daughter enjoys the house, we don't see a lot of teens in these tiny house adventures.

[@dottisiders6932]

I don’t have a tiny house, but Reggie is giving me so many ideas about making my un-tiny house pretty and more organized. I really like the way she decorates!!

[@debralines7232]

Love this house. It’s great with the extra room for the full size couch. I’ve seen many of these tiny homes and don’t like the small sitting. She was lucky to be able to put the house on her parents property.

[@Southamericangirl42]

I really hate most tiny house and bus couches. They often don't have enough sitting depth to be comfortable. Their legs must be tingling all the time.

[@twalker0877]

This is my favorite Tiny Home that I’ve seen thus far (on any video)…I love the layout, and the exterior look (and the pop outs are genius!) You can tell she put a lot of thought, care and research into this home! My dream is to one day own a tiny home for me and my dog and I will absolutely keep this plan and builder in mind! ❤️

[@TinyHouseExpedition]

So happy to hear your kind feedback!

[@KristerJonssonSverige]

Beautiful, beautiful house! And the owner such a lovely, balanced personality. I wish them nothing but the very best!

[@Southamericangirl42]

Hej Sverige! 🎶 'Jag hälsar dig vänaste land uppå jord.' It's a dream of mine to vacation in Stockholm soon.

[@3gmom408]

I love the fact that the whole house is painted white and this really opens up the space ! Beautiful !

[@sallyhover8173]

This is, by far, the best tiny home layout I’ve ever seen! This would be my dream home😍

[@jojomama2424]

Beautiful and I’m sure parents appreciate having them close by.

[@laurapatrick9475]

Your tiny home, is the ABSOLUTE BEST TINY HOME EVER DESIGNED. Great job. I've seen thousands and thousands I love everything about yours. 💜💘💛💚💖💙

[@robinricker9099]

Canada to California 6,000 bucks I guess that's about right

[@marjorjorietillman856]

Canada must have some GREAT builders of tiny houses, because I watch a lot of tiny homes on KZbin, and some of the most beautiful ones comes from Canada! Their homes overall seems to be the very best. I hope to visit my good neighbors in the near future! 🌹👍🏽

[@reggiewilliams8990]

Thank you, Alexis and Christian! You guys rock and I really love that you advocate/support the tiny house movement. Keep it up and come visit us again anytime.

[@TinyHouseExpedition]

Appreciate you Reggie. ☺️✨ Thanks again for sharing your home & journey with us!

[@sandrasews3765]

I’m so happy for mom and daughter, she made the right choice. Then her parents are right there.

[@paulmackyou9098]

I like her. She seems like someone I'd hang out with & I love this house

[@07laines07]

Bump outs like an RV… adding/saving floor space is awesome. Lovely tiny house!

[@sallythompson9958]

The best tiny home I've seen bump outs make it, very nice interior, a 10... you truly have all you need to be comfortable.

[@redshed2020]

This is a great layout, it's nice to see privacy and space for both mom and teenager.

[@elelegidosf9707]

Mom got the better deal, by far.

[@jodeming5088]

Gorgeous home. She did a great job with the design.

[@bluesue6687]

By far, by FAR my absolutely favorite tiny home! The design, style and layout is fantastic

Me too! I love it!!

[@travelconcarol7722]

e too!!! this table in the garden!!!! all is beautIFULL!!

[@lovingmayberry2000]

Love this tiny home, and the outdoor space is heaven!

[@debradavid929]

Beautiful! How well planned, and also the balance for her daughter and parents.

[@TheCaitling]

Truly lovely tiny home with great features - privacy at night for both her and her daughter despite her daughter not necessarily having a real wall on one side, ability to use the French doors to enjoy another "living room" and therefore also another way to not feel too cramped in the space with each other, and lastly a great way to live with family close together but not so close as to get on each others' nerves; close enough to be useful in each others lives the way families used to be when people were brought up in villages or more traditional community. Very cool!

[@Shiryone]

This is one of the most lovely and well laid out tiny houses I've ever seen. Love the pass-thru bathroom and full sized bedroom.

[@illus1onszgaming471]

This is the best designed tiny home I’ve seen that lady is very smart and creative

[@michaeldavies9533]

This is one of the most gorgeous tiny house that I have seen the decor so spot on , Reggie you have really nailed it,

[@onengkusumah2905]

10 years financing kinda kills the point of having a tiny home though...

[@sisimawarbiru7687]

Agree

[@ladylang3]

@@onengkusumah2905 I don’t know if there is a particular point, or if it is necessary to have a point. But if for example, she has a mortgage of just $300 a month, I think as prices go in CA it’s pretty good. In Bay Area the housing is outrageous and renting just a room the average is $1,200.

[@margreetanceaux3906]

The bump-outs make it so much more livable! Great tiny house 😘

[@auntdee5807]

Truly one of the best tiny homes I have seen. I have viewed a lot too. I love the bump outside which you do not see very often.

[@troydanielboy]

You have one of the best ones I"ve seen. Lots of light, height, rooms, two bedrooms, fabulous.

[@megg.1610]

Smart woman! You have your own space with your daughter, good job.

[@coffeytnmilk7]

Love how light and bright the bathroom is! The whole design is beautiful and does not seem tiny at all!

[@ruthbeacham5246]

Love this home. Especially her bedroom being downstairs

[@melissafaucheux6777]

It’s literally a more well built camper. Love this. So beautiful

[@christinesmith7505]

Best tiny house I’ve ever seen!!! It fulfills all of the issues of tiny homes that drive me nuts. Those bump-outs are the answer to more space. Love the bedroom double doors to the outside. Kitchen is my favorite room.

[@suereed3474]

It's a beautiful, liveable home. But she is so nice, so realistic and down to earth.

[@nanaellenmccallum1945]

I love this! Great and useful areas utilized in logical sense. I love the pullouts! This is probably the best Tiny Home I've ever seen. I love her colours and esp the fact that she made sure her daughter get some great private space.

[@recoveringsoul755]

For a home in CA is cheap, plus if her parents go, she'll probably inherit their home, and can rent out this as an air bnb. I love the big shower and downstairs bedroom

[@tahoe7779]

Love the cottage white interior. Looks so light, bright, and cheerful. 🤗

[@sopanmuller]

Excellent design. The pop-outs really work well for her, and the lady is able to accommodate her daughter very comfortably plus have her own bedroom... great job.

[@hilltopvt]

This is a beautiful tiny house - one of my favorites that I've seen.

[@ginalegg2463]

That is one super gorgeous tiny house. I love the design and would live in it in a flash 😍

[@dazzads]

this is one of the best tiny homes i’ve seen. it looks so cozy and liveable. 💙

[@Southamericangirl42]

At 10:06 it looks just like a regular farm house. To me at least. It resembled the farm houses from older British television series.

[@Poeticfloetic]

She is a lovely creative mom. Adventurous even. Her daughter is blessed. I love moms creativity. ♥️🔥

[@FayreeenAarow]

I love your tiny house the colors, the style, the floorplan how well you make manage to keep it. You’re so very blessed. Good for you both.❤❤❤❤

Really impressed with this one & love the pop outs . All the white makes it lighter, brighter, cleaner & larger looking. I am especially partial to decorating with white.

The best part was the French doors leading to outside sitting area. The front door is innovative too. Lots of wonderful ideas there.

I love this house. Not tiny at all. The white/black exterior. Interior is peaceful and gorgeous. I especially love the back bedroom.

[@pC-zd4qj]

Amazing design! Loved it and how Reggie is handling life at this point for parents, her daughter and herself.

This one is cute & I like the idea of having the master bedroom downstairs and the French doors that lead to the outside 😍

[@lightwarrior432]

Me too! 😃👍🏽😍……. Just like ours 😊🥰

I LOVED that and the high ceiling in her bedroom along with the French doors made it SO spacious. I would love a home like this one. It's by far my favorite tiny house and I've seen lots of them!

[@martegulbrandsen1308]

I have watched a lot of tiny homes here now, but this was my absolute favorite one! So beautifully made! I loved the style and how "normal home" it looked! I'm applaud this mother for how she choosed to think about her daughter ,going through a divorce, to make sure she could stay close to her friends, school and family. 🙌👏👏👏 Great work!

Glad that she mentioned the pricing and costs. The pop outs are wonderful!

Absolutely wonderful and love the fact you have a full height bedroom and the outdoor entertainment 🥰 well done girl !!! Wishing you heaps of happiness in this wonderful tiny home 🏡

[@giselet158]

This is one of my favorite tiny homes! Love the bump out. Makes such a huge difference. I would definitely move the couch up just a bit to fit some type of narrow shelf that's leveled to the top of the back of the couch. Just a nice piece of stained wood. She could display some books, pictures and even have a little lamp on it.

Bump outs are great they give you that much more room. happy to see that you have been able to smoothly move from a divorce to a home for yourself and daughter that is comfy . Ontario

[@niclasvestman]

Close to tiny mansion perfection❣️ Would just change 1 thing; standing headroom on loft along the width of the stairs. 3 mods requiered. 1) Lower the loft floor the width of the stairs. 2) Roof section over lowered floor lifted, so that it continues the same angle as the opposite side (lowerable for transport). 3) Have mostly fridge, cabinets, washer/dryer aso under the lowered floor. That way it would not noticably impact headroom or feel of kitchen space, other than relocate the bulk of couter space to one side. The benefit for loft space usability on the other hand, would be enormous. But... absolutely stunning house all the same ❣️
