Ep 6. Tiny Honeymoon Home In San Diego

In this episode of Tiny House Hunting, a couple from San Francisco are on the hunt for their ideal "tiny honeymoon home" in San Diego. The couple is excited to embark on their new adventure of marriage and tiny living. They aspire to live a minimalist lifestyle and prioritize experiences over material possessions, making a tiny house the perfect fit for them.

The couple's budget is $100,000, and they have a few must-haves, including a full-size kitchen with a gas range stove, a queen-size bed, and a separate workspace for their side businesses. Furthermore, the couple would like to have a bathroom with a full-size shower and a composting toilet. They also would love an outdoor space to enjoy the California sunshine.

Their real estate agent shows them three options. The first option is a tiny house on wheels located in a tiny house community with an asking price of $65,000. The home's interior is designed to maximize the use of space, with a spacious kitchen and living area, lofted sleeping quarters, and a bathroom complete with a shower and composting toilet.

The second option is a tiny house on a foundation located in a community with similar homes that run on solar energy. The home features a full-size kitchen and an inviting living area that makes creative use of small space. This home also features a sleeping loft and a separate workspace, but unlike the other homes, it features a full-size bathroom.

The third option is a newly renovated studio that is not technically a tiny house, but it meets all the couple's specifications for living small. It features a full-size kitchen, a queen-size bed, and a dedicated office space. It also boasts a full-size bathroom and a small outdoor space.

During the viewing, the couple weighs the pros and cons of each option, taking into account their budget and lifestyle needs. They deliberate between the mobility of a tiny house on wheels versus the stability of a house on a foundation. They also weigh the benefits of having a dedicated outdoor space versus an indoor living area with more room to work.

Ultimately, the couple decides on the tiny house on wheels. Although it lacks a stable foundation and permanent outdoor space, the mobility of the home makes it easier for them to travel and explore California's many natural wonders. They are excited to customize the home to their liking and embark on their new adventure as newlyweds in a tiny house.

This episode of Tiny House Hunting highlights the many benefits of tiny living, customized for the specific lifestyle and needs of the couple. It also showcases the different types of tiny homes available and the variety of communities where they are located. Tiny House Hunting season 3 episode 6 is a heartwarming look at the joys and challenges of tiny living and highlights the importance of prioritizing experiences over material possessions.
