Meet Emily, a young lawyer who moved back to North Carolina into a 41′ gooseneck tiny house. She left NYC to embrace a more outdoor-focused lifestyle. While she could afford a large traditional house, she wanted something simple and just right for her. Living tiny legally was a priority too. Importantly, she secured a lot in a brand-new tiny house community called Cranmore Meadows. Shortly after the completed tour video, shown below, Emily moved from a temporary parking spot to her wooded long-term lot at the back of the development.
Mint Tiny Homes built her 41′ gooseneck tiny house for about $120,000 (give or take with CAD to USD exchange rate). She worked with them to customize one of their models to best suit her work-from-home needs. Importantly, a separate room is dedicated to Emily’s home office room. This is located in the gooseneck, where many folks typically put a standing-height bedroom. Her office also features two spacious closets, which is definitely important for professional clothes.
Emily’s Tiny Home Transition
The post Lawyer’s 41′ Gooseneck Tiny House with Home Office first appeared on Tiny House Blog.“Going tiny for me is absolutely not a compromise. People always ask me what I gave up to go tiny or why I decided that was the best option. I genuinely wanted to do this for a while and was excited to do it.
So first and foremost, it seemed really cool, and I liked the lifestyle, and I liked the homes. So I went for it. Second of all, it’s cheaper than buying a traditional house in a lot of ways. Although, as you might see in my tour, I didn’t really skrimp too badly with this one. I put money into it to make it a house I wanted to live in for a long time.
I also liked the flexibility of being able to move it. I bought it before I knew where I would be living and working, so it let me look for different jobs in different towns in different parts of the country.”
