Growing Family of 5 Goes Tiny: In this episode of Tiny House Hunters, we meet the Andrews family who are looking to downsize their living space from their current four-bedroom home to a tiny house on wheels. The Andrews family consists of parents Rachel and Andrew and their three children - 10-year-old twins, Jack and Ava, and 7-year-old Calvin. The family is excited about the prospect of tiny living, as they believe it will bring them closer as a family and allow them to focus on experiences rather than material possessions.
The Andrews family has a budget of $100,000, and they are looking for a tiny house that can comfortably accommodate their growing family. They are looking for a model that has a separate sleeping area for the parents, a separate sleeping area for the children, and a designated area for Calvin's homeschooling. In addition, the Andrews family is looking for a tiny house that has a full kitchen and bathroom, and enough space for them to entertain guests.
The first tiny house that the Andrews family visits is a model that is designed specifically for families with children. The home is 28 feet long and has a sleeping area for the parents, a loft for the children, and a separate room that can be used for homeschooling or as a guest room. The kitchen is fully equipped with a full-size fridge and stove, and there is a bathroom with a shower and toilet. The Andrews family is impressed with the layout of the home and the fact that it can comfortably accommodate their family of five.
The second tiny house that the Andrews family visits is a model that has a more modern feel. The home is 24 feet long and has a sleeping area for the parents, a loft for the children, and a designated area for Calvin's homeschooling. The kitchen is compact but functional, and there is a bathroom with a shower and toilet. The Andrews family is drawn to the modern design of the home, but they are concerned about the lack of space for guests.
The final tiny house that the Andrews family visits is a model that is designed for full-time living. The home is 30 feet long and has a sleeping area for the parents, a loft for the children, and a designated area for Calvin's homeschooling. The kitchen is fully equipped with a full-size fridge and stove, and there is a bathroom with a shower and composting toilet. The Andrews family is impressed with the overall size of the home and the fact that it has enough space for them to entertain guests.
After touring all three tiny houses, the Andrews family sits down with their real estate agent to discuss their options. They are torn between the family-friendly model and the modern model, as both homes meet their needs in different ways. Ultimately, the Andrews family decides to purchase the family-friendly model because it has enough space for them to accommodate guests and provides a better layout for their family's needs.
The episode concludes with the Andrews family moving into their new tiny house and embracing their new way of living. They express their gratitude for the experience and their excitement for the adventures that lie ahead.
