Tiny House Scotland

Tiny House Scotland is owned and run by Jonathan Avery whose flagship build is the NestHouse ("a highly insulated modular moveable small eco-house") which is 3.4m wide and available in three different lengths ( 3.6m, 4.8m and 6m) although the modular nature of the design means additional sections can be added. He is also working on a NestPod which will be 2.55m wide and road towable. Here's what Jonathan says about his work: The NestHouse project is my personal crusade to bring together the physics of building science with aesthetic design and individual craftsmanship to create a new alternative for sustainable living. It’s a snug wooden building which could be an affordable starter home, a lifestyle micro living choice, or the venue for a home based business.

Tiny House in Bristol to be raffled

The Bristol Post reports on an intriguing idea from Bristol builder George Rose who is raffling off a tiny house he built during the first lockdown this year. He estimates the value of the house at £20,000 and each raffle ticket costs £3, with at least 7.5% of profits going to homeless charity Centrepoint. "This started as a project to hone my skills and build a home," he says. "I didn’t plan to raffle this off, but this years unprecedented events called for a different approach. Rather than watch my project sit alone and unloved, I decided to raffle the house and donate part of the proceeds to charity. This is the chance for a brand new chapter - could it be yours? The 6.6m x 2.55m house has two rooms, double French windows, solar inverter, composting toilet, and gas boiler. More details at Tiny Raffle . Raffle closes on November 30.
