A Texas couple remodeled an old shed into a tiny home with a bedroom, bathroom, living room and kitchen for their family of four. All for about $16,000.
A Fayetteville, Texas, couple remodeled the tiny shed on inherited land and transformed it into a place for their family to call home, Insider reports.over undertaking the project, asserting a comfortable and inexpensive lifestyle is possible in such a small space.
“I always wanted a kitchen like that and you don't have to spend a whole bunch of money just to achieve it," Katy Krebs said."I wanted a farmhouse sink, I wanted shiplap walls, and I could have them in my tiny house. You can live a nice lifestyle and still live tiny." The Krebs documented many lessons learned across their social media: creating new walls, getting other family members involved in the renovation, and learning to draw floor plans and laying details out before getting their hands dirty.“We wanted our AC in the bedroom, but it ended up being in the living room,” Katy Krebs told Insider. That set our plans back because now we have this big galvanized piping in the front where the porch is.
Rearranging the floor plan and adding a porch expanded the total square footage available to the family. After nine months of renovation from September 2020 to May 2021, the couple ended up with a new place to call home for about $16,000 - under their original budget of $20,000.
