    I lived in a tiny house looking building that was in the back yard of the owner. It was just one room building (very cute on the outside) (maybe 150 sq feet). Originally was built to breed cats so it had Air conditioner (no heat), a counter with sink and cabinets on one side. It had cages for the cats to stay in prior to us moving in.

    We manage to fit a full size refrigerator, small table for two and two chairs, a queen bed, a futon/couch and a TV center. There were no closets or anything.

    No Bathroom!!! So we had to enter the owner's house to use the restroom there.

    5 years!!! I don't know how I managed to do those 5 years!!! I was married to my ex who was not a nice man. No walls and no privacy!!!



    Now I live in a very old small house with huge land in the forest with a nice husband and feel like a queen! Eh even have two bathrooms (big smile!!!!)

      So do you have a lawn mower when you have a strip of grass that small? Or do you just go outside with your scissors?

        talk about utilizing all the space you gave available! My kids would love it as a play house.

        Theres a house up the road that looks like the sz of a garage for a compact car, but it has a yard so I think they'd need a mower over a scissors, but where they'd keep it was beyond me unlessit was a riding mower so they can cut the grass & drive it to work?
