at 6 feet wide, how could it NOT be?

2 floors for a whopping 252 sq feet. If the basement is finished, 378

no way they live there full time. that's a treehouse without the tree.

Shower room, and a bedroom? It's better than living in the car I guess... maybe...

When I was five, four of us lived in a one car garage for a year. A sink in the corner with a pitcher pump, a wood burning stove, a hide-a-bed couch for the folks, and bunk beds for sister and me.

The following summer they built a cinder block kitchen and bathroom into the side of a hill, then dragged the garage up on top with horses and a homemade tractor. The steps up & down were six stone steps set into the hill and seven wood steps up to a wood deck the length of the garage, outside. We lived there for a couple years, then almost 2 years in the cellar of a new house, until there was enough money/time to build the rest of the house.

Most people have way more room than they actually need, and most of that is used to house stuff they don't need and seldom use.

The Dutch have them beat. Narrowest house in Amsterdam. I saw it on a recent business trip there. There are actually many many contenders there for 2nd place as well; loads of unbelievably narrow row houses, many less than 2 meters wide!!!

I fart bigger than that.

That place is so small, you'd have to go outside to change your mind.

That place is so small, the roaches have to crawl along the wall because the floors are too narrow.

That place is so small, you can't cuss a cat without getting four feet in your mouth.

That place is so small you can actually find your own ass with two hands.
