This house is in a post-war development in Houston called "Oak Forest"...

1000 square feet, three bedrooms, one bathroom...on huge lots.   They were heated with unvented gas space heaters...In the summer they were ventilated with a "whole house ventilator."  In the early 60's people started taking the big fan out and installing a large window air conditioner.  They also built an even more basic model that had no garage, just a carport.
Would this count as a tiny house?



What does such a house cost today?

That's probably worth a million in your area.

Easily but we're on the beach so it's more about location

These are almost certainly considered tear downs for the absolutely huge lots these houses are on, but this one is $270,000...

Upon reflection and viewing the photos, the lot isn't as big as I thought,  but some of this genre were quite large.

That sucks. Small house isn't worth it if you don't at least have a view.

I did not call you a gay midget. The first sentence I was making fun of your height, the second sentence I remembered a midget joke and wrote.

2nd sentence had nothing to do with you, read it again

Looks like the houses built in prison by inmates making $.25/hr and "sold" to Indian reservations for Indian anti live in. Not long before the windows(plywood) match the floors (plywood).

The houses up top look like hunting/trapping cabins. Cool if they're in the Black Hills or Montana, or Alaska and its just you and some heavy cal rifles and a full size double-stack 1911 in 10mm & a DP-12.

They are basically the new fad ::) I can see where a well designed one can be good for one person and a pet, but absolutely not for a family.

I heard that Vince Goodrum was preparing to go off of the grid. What happened?

You can't live a meaningful life in a small house unless you're insane? Ever been to Japan?

I'd be interested to know what you consider a meaningful life.

Seriously?

That's because to all the porn you watch.

The Japanese are one of the most productive, intelligent, disciplined and well mannered people in the world.

exactly, nothing, and it will stay that way. All talk. At least some of us chased it and built 2 tiny houses that are functional and in the middle of nowhere

Vince Goodrum, all talk, zero action queen
