Cohousing-L Mailing List: Re: Micro Living Units -- Affordable

[VAN DEIST (vandeist]

The Tiny House movement is quite interesting, but a retirement cottage should 
be w/c accessible.  The smallest 1 BR, 1 BA cottage that I have been able to 
complete as w/c accessible has been 576 ft2 on a 24'X24' floor plan.  I also 
have a 2BR, 2BA model with 864 ft2.  My study plans are available at no charge 
upon request.  vandeist [at] msn.com
