For the Cost of a Year's London Rent, They Built This Amazing Tiny House!

If you're living in a big city and watching your income fade away into a giant black hole of rent, then this story is for you! This week we meet Lizzie and Patrick, an inspiring young couple who built their very own, incredible tiny house for the equivalent cost of just one years rent in London city!

And the home is beautiful too. Stunningly designed and easily accommodating the couples needs, this home has provided both Lizzie and Patrick with a lot more than just a secure roof over their heads. It's also given them the ability to save money and focus on the things that are truly important to them in life.

We hope you enjoy the full tour of this couple’s amazing DIY tiny house!

With the cost of living in the UK (and around the globe) at astounding highs, I'm sure there are many people out there who love the idea of giving up a years worth of city rent in exchange for building their own dream tiny house! Lizzie and Patrick are an inspiring young couple who have built a truly impressive home for a remarkable budget and we hope you enjoy visiting their home as much as we did!

This episode kicks off the start of a series of videos we've filmed in the UK. The tiny house movement has significantly grown since we were last here and it's so exciting to share our new discoveries with you. There are some real treasures in this series!

With Love,

Bryce & Rasa

So good to see more of these videos in the UK again! The regulations here just don''t support tiny houses, they have to be "caravans", and you can't get mortgages for them as far as I know, so you have to either save like crazy in this economic climate or be fairly well off to begin with. Would love to hear more from any other UK participants on how they got around this.

Interesting. As a Londoner paying extortionate rent, this is relevant to me. Unfortunately, most people don't have family with extensive land to park a caravan / tiny house. And presumably a convenient nearby house to do laundry and store food -- no fridge or washing machine visible here?

People need homes close to transport hubs, jobs, amenities etc, This channel doesn't ever explore the systemic issues affecting people's housing options. It's not as simple as exchanging a year's rent for a tiny house -- these folks must've benefited from family help during and after their build. Generational wealth, or the lack thereof, is an obstacle to many ordinary people,

That lounge area is just perfect. You would never know it was in a tiny house. This is an amazing DIY build.

What a great couple, seems like a true partnership. Love the house & how it sits in the trees. That price, so impressive. I really enjoyed Lizzie's artwork as well. Great episode, thanks Bryce & Rasa.

Such a beautiful home for so little money! We need more of these in this world.

I’m sure we’d all be able to build something and put in the hard work if we had parents with a massive detached house in Oxfordshire with land and outbuildings. Would love to see some more variation in the types of places being visited and different stories for the people who’ve managed to achieve this lifestyle. It seems as if it’s currently unavailable to anyone without the land their parents give them. No hate on the couple they’ve built a lovely place for themselves, but for many who are stuck paying unaffordable rents this is a pipe dream.

What a lovely couple. May they enjoy many more projects in the future.

The most gorgeous tiny house i've seen so far. This design really resonated with me. Lizzie and Patrick seem like such a cool, creative and intelligent couple. Love Lizzies art as well.

[JBDRAGA]

Such a sweet couple and a beautiful home. Congratulations to them both!

[alineliline]

Lizzie, your engravings are magnificent. I like your style, of art. And I love the layout of the interior, the choice of colors, the wood...

[tammyjantzen]

You two did an awesome job! All the wood inside & out is gorgeous! And I love the layout!

[levibates]

Phenomenal exterioral cladding contrasting with the door and window frames! Nice roof design as well. Thank you so much for even more content!

[margreetanceaux]

Lovely, and very livable! And in my book: bonus points for the free-standing table, that allows you to sit opposite, over dinner.

[rinamorgan]

I'm in awe of that result. What a charming home and sweet couple. We need a follow up video about their canoe!

[teresam]

I get so excited when viewing the Tiny Homes here on this site... But I MUST say that this may be one of my top favorites. Lovely job these two have done.

[lindajames]

A lovely tiny house. Especially like the wood accents on the interior without it being over done! Light and airy! Great job!❣️

Ive binged these videos since I've found them. I love the vibe of the channel. I think the biggest factor of the channel for me personally feeling chill is the host. The feeling he gives to each house is amazing. Especially since he doesn't fit in most of them. Lol. Love his energy and dedication.

[nicolakestel-lifestyleceo]

Absolutely beautiful, as is Lizzie’s artwork.

[armlovesmetal]

Lovely tiny house. It is amazing how innovative Lizzie and Patrick are with their build. The area looks very peaceful.
