Deb and Ron, enjoying retirement, embraced their roles as full-time grandparents to Amanda’s two sons. Living in Pennsylvania, the distance from their daughter’s family turned routine visits into challenging 13-hour journeys, relying on video calls for connection. Missing the lively presence of their grandkids, they sought a solution and found a lakeside property on Smith Lake in Pennsylvania.
Collaborating with Alabama Tiny Homes, they transformed shipping containers into cozy living spaces. Deb and Ron’s 480-square-foot home, costing $120,000, features a large picture window facing the lake. Amanda also built her 320-square-foot home with bunk beds and a Murphy bed, just steps away from her parents. Despite delays, the craftsmanship reflects quality, making the wait worthwhile. Both homes now offer comfort, functionality, and proximity, creating a haven for the family on the picturesque lakeside property.
