Tiny houses: Living like Peter Lustig

Tiny houses are now even available at Tchibo, the cheapest cost is 40,000 euro. Are the mini-houses the salvation for big city dwellers in housing shortages?

Tiny houses: Living like Peter Lustig

Sometimes you wonder if you, as a big city, will soon have to live like Peter – at least if you still dream of owning a home. Funny was a television man and author who explained to children by end of 2005 in his show Dandelion world, and from which one learned above all one: How to live in a car. He said weekly that it could be well-maintained in this tiny room – and a lot more rooms than a normal earner can hardly afford in metropolises anyway: in Berlin two room flats are already free 300,000 euro and three rooms in Munich Are barely under half a million.

One has to think smaller, and Tchibo now advertises with a solution: mini-house, also called tiny home, a ten-square-metre home for 40,000 euros. It is about size of a construction car and is actually on a chassis, so that thanks to a trailer clutch can quickly find site and thus buyers and buyers with ir property always remain mobile.

On a small area, tiny houses offer a fully equipped living room, a sleeping loft, a telephone-sized bathroom and a small kitchen. The smallest of three houses even has a two square metre veranda. With a purchase price of 40,000 to 60,000 euros, Tchibo models are more likely to be among luxury models under Kleinsthäusern, but at least: y are affordable. And from square Meterpreisen between 3,750 and 4,000 euros, big cities can only dream in many quarters.

Meanwhile, it is no longer just goofy television moderators who live in such tiny houses. The tiny house pendants have become a broad movement. The idea originated in USA, originally to prove that construction of always protzigerer detached houses for ever smaller families can not be a solution eir. Meanwhile, it is also in vogue in Germany, especially in times of rental usury and priceless real estate prices. To buy a tiny house, a low interest building savings contract can suffice.

Tiny houses-home to build luxury version on 90 square meters

A dozen manufacturers in Germany have specialized in construction of such Miniheime between 15 and 45 square meters – luxury versions can also be 90 square meters in size. Architecture Forums Rave about how practical small living crates are. Artistic illustrated books impressively show ir beauty and in design highlights like Fincube you can imagine life in a small space effortlessly.

Some specimens look more like a garden house from hardware store, but most tiny houses seem like cuddly small editions of Swedish cottages or mini architect villas. Some can be stackinged as modules or rolled toger. First, manufacturers offered m as weekend houses, as affordable accommodation for students and trainees, or as mobile Zweitbüro for self-employed, who occasionally pitch ir office far away from city. The prices are affordable: usually square meter between 1,500 and 2,000 euro, complete residential blocks come to 15,000 to 20,000 euro. On reels, your price starts from 28,000 euro.

However, it is not so easy to find a place for mini-houses, even if y are on wheels. They can n be shipped with any vehicle, with TÜV approval, but only in United States are rolling homes not considered home. In this country, if you want to live in it, you need a building permit. However, se are only available for land, including water and electricity, as well as waste collection.

Stand against garden Maintenance

It is not possible to live wildly in nature. Simply parking on roadside or in a parking lot doesn't go well, at least it becomes difficult to register your first residence in your own house. In a city like Munich, however, plots are virtually priceless even for tiny houses. On outskirts a suitable building site costs around one million euros, Bauer maintenance country still a six-figure amount. Even in cities like Bayrischzell or Bamberg, for a building plot in sufficient size – with luck – 70,000 to 95,000 euros would be due. This means that even cheapest tiny house is no longer quite so inexpensive.

Some Kleinsthausbesitzer, however, are more inventive than building regulations and authorities allow: re are real estate exchanges for tiny houses on which owners and prospective buyers meet to buy toger a building site and re as a Kleinsthauskommune Living. Ors are looking for farmers in whose front yard y can set up ir Minibuden, or y offer seniors in large villas in Grünwald or Grunewald a deal: stand against garden maintenance.

Speaking of stand space, one thing almost always goes: to roll house on one of many small-house friendly campsites and to park re as permanent guest. Some of m can even register ir first residence, for example at Neckar. But you should ask yourself if you really imagined your life as a homeowner at campsite. or not, but rar like Peter Lustig buys a construction car or a discarded railroad wagon. You can park it in next business area and you will have a quiet evening in front of neighbors.
