As the tiny home movement grows more momentum, TikTok account @minihomemonster has been sharing videos inside people’s pint-sized pads.
One recent owner wanted to show off his Tuff Shed purchase from The Home Depot, which cost just $176 in monthly payments.
Although it is only 16 by 16 feet, the building has two stories and a clever use of the living space.
For example, the owner pointed out how the area under the stairs could be used as a closet, “or you could put a small bed there.”

Downstairs, the living space enjoys plenty of natural light thanks to several small windows, including two that look out onto the porch.
The TikToker then climbed the small staircase to go up to the second story.
Upstairs, he showed how the eight-foot-high loft would be used as a spacious bedroom.
“You could easily put a king size bed in here,” he suggested.

This ready-built tiny house is available at The Home Depot for $8, 967, and the price includes delivery.
However, any owner will stay have to pay to insulate the property and install electricity and water.
Another cost to consider is the price of rent for the land you want to keep your tiny home on.
But living in a shed isn’t the only way to achieve your tiny house dreams.
LIFE ON THE SMALL SIDE
Some tiny home owners live in their own self-built creations.
One such person is YouTuber David Rule, who built his tiny house alone for $8,000 despite having zero prior construction experience.
David began with an old trailer bed that he used as the base for his 150-square-foot home.
He learned the carpentry skills necessary by watching YouTube videos.
“I was able to turn my dream into a reality and become a homeowner,” David said, proud of his DIY accomplishment.
Another tiny homeowner, Raychel, also lives on wheels.
The TikToker (@notluxe) explained that her 7x14 feet converted ambulance “has everything a normal house would,” just smaller.
For example, the van boasts a tiny kitchenette with an induction stove, a foot-pump sink, and a cool box that functions as a refrigerator.
Raychel and her husband have lived on the van for two-and-a-half years and traveled to three different countries, 15 states, and two provinces.
