I stumbled upon The Retreat By Oakstone where the wondrous one-bedroom shotgun style Low Country Designer Cottage you see here is offered.

This tiny home is one of the Designer Cottages Dungan and his team designed, and it lit up my radar rather randomly. I was gathering info about lovely places to retire when Monteagle, Tennessee popped up.

PIN me!

Can you imagine living in a home under 500 square feet? (I have a better idea of what it’s like since we purchased a tiny house last year as investment property, but it looks nothing like this beauty!).

Elegant Tiny House Design

I am not yet ready to adapt to tiny house living. When I view episodes on HGTV about tiny house living, I am mostly filled with curiosity and awe about how daily tiny life functions for families with young children.

Tiny Living Minutiae

I must admit I am fascinated by what rarely gets addressed…tiny house minutiae.

What about living under the same tiny roof with someone who sleepwalks or snores? What if tiny impulsive toddlers decide to leap from a sleeping loft and land on the cooktop?

What I do know is humans are masters of adaptation. So I suppose, once you’re all in, with time, you adapt to the down side of downsized.

p.s. What I have learned in my experience as a tiny house owner is layout/floorplan is everything! Fortunately the little 1950 house I bought (as a rental…not for a primary residence) has a smart livable layout!
