Tiny Homes Making Big News! #tinyhouse

Tiny Homes are a housing trend making big news coast to coast, particularly around the Atlanta area and the mountains of Northeast Georgia. First there were hiker hostels and rustic cabins, most providing rudimentary, short-term shelter needs. Now, Tiny Homes are being built as full-time, year ‘round residences. It’s not unusual to see a newly built or renovated, Tiny Home popping up on a country road in the Georgia mountains.
