Here are some small yet very cosy and functional homes. You can buy some of them as you’ll see once you get that scroll rolling, you can rent others but the main point here is to inspire you. You might want such a lovely little house someday. Whether you plan on building it in the backyard, in the heart of the mountains, at the seaside it would make a wonderful getaway place. Somewhere where you can spend your weekends at, closer to the nature, away from the busy city life.
