A family of five from Temecula are in search of a tiny house that can accomodate their whole family. The parents, along with their three children, have decided to downsize and live more minimally. Their budget is $100,000 and they are hoping to find a home that has enough space for all of them, with a designated sleeping area for each child.
The first home they visit is a 400 square foot house on wheels. While the home has a lot of charm, the family quickly realizes that it's too small for their needs. The bedrooms are too small to fit a bed for each child and the family agrees that they need something with a bit more space.
The second house is a 500 square foot home with a loft for the children to sleep in. While the children enjoy the idea of a loft, the parents are concerned about the height and safety of the structure. They also note that there isn't enough storage space for all of their belongings and clothing.
The third home is a 600 square foot house that has been custom-built for a family of four. The parents appreciate the extra space and the fact that each child has their own sleeping area. However, the family agrees that the house is a bit too large for their taste and would prefer something smaller.
The last home they visit is a 350 square foot house that is currently under construction. While the home is not yet finished, the family is excited about the layout and potential of the space. They appreciate the designated sleeping areas for each child and the fact that there is still enough room for a small living area and kitchen.
After careful consideration, the family decides to go with the last home. They are excited to finish the construction process and move into their new space. The children are looking forward to having their own little nooks, and the parents are happy about the time and money they will save by living more minimally.
Overall, this episode exemplifies the challenges and rewards of searching for a tiny house that fits the unique needs of a specific family. It also showcases the importance of compromise and creativity when downsizing and living in a smaller space.
