Bohemian Family Goes Tiny is the 12th episode of the fifth season of Tiny House Hunters. This episode follows the journey of a bohemian family who is in search of their very own tiny house. The family is comprised of a husband, wife, and their two children.
The husband is an artist and musician, while the wife is a yoga instructor. They have both lived in various unconventional spaces throughout their lives and are eager to downsize to a more practical and minimalistic lifestyle with their children. They are open to exploring different styles and designs of tiny houses, but they have a few must-haves on their wishlist, including a functional workspace for the husband and a designated play area for the children.
The episode begins with the family meeting with their real estate agent in their hometown of Athens, Georgia. They have a budget of $50,000 and are hoping to find a tiny house that can accommodate their family of four. The real estate agent shows them a variety of options, including a tiny house that is built on a trailer and can be moved from place to place, a tiny house that is built on a foundation and has a lofted bedroom, and a converted school bus that has been turned into a tiny house.
The family is immediately drawn to the converted school bus, which has a unique and playful design. The interior of the school bus has been transformed into a cozy living space, complete with a kitchen, bathroom, and living room area. The husband is impressed with the amount of storage space in the bus and sees the potential to turn the back of the bus into a functional workspace. The wife loves the eclectic nature of the bus and sees potential in the interior design.
However, their real estate agent reminds them that buying a school bus comes with its own set of challenges, including maintenance and finding a place to park it. The family ultimately decides to keep their options open and continue exploring other tiny house designs before making a final decision.
The next tiny house they visit is built on a trailer and has a more traditional design. The exterior of the house is simple and rustic, with a porch on the front where the family can enjoy the outdoors. The interior of the house has a warm and cozy feel, with a lofted bedroom, a kitchen, and a living room area. The family is impressed with the amount of storage space in the house, but they are disappointed to find that there isn't enough room for a designated play area for their children.
The final tiny house that the family visits is a modern and sleek design that is built on a foundation. The exterior of the house is a combination of wood and metal, with large windows that let in natural light. The interior of the house is bright and airy, with white walls and minimalistic furnishings. The family is impressed with the overall design of the house but notes that it may not be the most practical for a family with young children.
After weighing their options, the family decides to go with a tiny house that is built on a trailer and has a more traditional design. They appreciate the simplicity and the functionality of the space, and they feel that it is the best fit for their family's needs. The husband plans to turn the back area of the house into a functional workspace, while the wife is excited to add her own bohemian touch to the interior design.
In the end, the family is thrilled to have found their very own tiny house and are eager to start their new minimalistic lifestyle. They feel that the tiny house will allow them to focus on what's truly important in life, including spending time together as a family, pursuing their passions, and exploring the world around them.
