Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
Meet Chuck & Molly, a couple who recently opened Namastay Hideaway, a tiny living community in North Texas. They live on-site and accept THOWs, small RVs & bus/van conversions. Enjoy a look inside, plus a tour of a residents' park model tiny home! ❤️ Tiny homes have been part of Molly & Chuck's love story from the start. They had their very 1st date in Molly's tiny house on wheels! After getting married, they needed more room for their family but dreamed of starting a community. And they manifested it! Together, they poured much sweat equity & TLC into the process. The result is a thoughtfully crafted, welcoming, drama-free & lovely community. ❤️

Namastay Hideaway founders Chuck & Molly poured much sweat equity & TLC into the process. The result is a thoughtfully crafted, welcoming, drama-free & lovely community. ❤It's definitely helpful that Molly had experience living in a tiny house and in another community to know what matters.

There starting too, but I think it's council red tape and lack of understanding of the concept. Plus greedy landlords and the air b n b here in Australia. Old shacks never used are a money maker now. And everyone with an old hut, garage, shed are offering them up.

You two make me want to create a tiny community also. But I will probably just move to North Carolina and start a homestead! Namaste, new friends!

This was a great story .. love that these people put that much effort into creating a good place for others of like mind. It's difficult to buck the system .. in the cities .. so find a place in the country .. then you have much less to fret over!
What a completely amazing place and people! I wish we had this in Seattle.😢 So much respect and love for your vision, your realization of the dream, and the beautiful community you have built.
looks like a great place.
Nonresidential food forest surrounds would give people the space that a pocket village has. Fire pump proximity allows cars facing out from the central garden like a pocket village. Beyond that a food forest wedge with a shared zone 5 border path. Less permits if its not residential.
Wow, too hot for me in Texas, but what an incredible community and couple. Love the whole vibe and wish them well. Well done!!!

Salute to the couple. This is an inspiration for me. I'll keep this inspiration for the future home and community of my children. That safety vault/tunnel or storm shelter is a plus especially that we have been hit hard by Typhoon Rai in 2021 and left our forests bare of leaves and enumerable number of fallen trees. It was so disheartening to see our part of Palawan with barren trees. That one unforgettable experience led me to search for typhoon resistant houses and other means of keeping safe in a ravaging storm.
Love this, and thank you for thinking about the storm shelters. It's a huge sense of security to not have to worry about that.❤🙏🍀⭐♥️

How surprising, that watching American shows about people looking for a new home in a fairly large budget every time they complain about the proximity of neighbors, literally in every episode, it gives you food for thought, they seem as if they don't like people so much from the heart, while the community of the 'tiny house' movement emphasizes the advantages not only economically but also from proximity to people with whom they very often establish long-term friendships. And it's great that I would love to join them myself.

This book is a great source of inspiration for anyone who wants to build high-quality tiny homes. Instead of settling for ordinary materials and designs, you can learn how to create structures that are durable and aesthetically pleasing. kzread.infoUgkxLum--iPp9YKZ09j1BMdHaBMLkrGfIbcm The book does not provide detailed engineering drawings, but it offers plenty of photos that illustrate the concepts and designs. The book assumes that you have some basic building skills, but it also provides a range of ideas that can suit different preferences and needs. I found this book very useful and informative, and I appreciate it greatly. Thank you for providing such a valuable content in these Shed Plans. It is remarkable! For long-term service, it seems like it is worth investing a bit more money. Ryan, you are very generous to share such extensive information with us at a very affordable price.
