Top 5 Smallest Houses in the World

Are you living in a big house? Or an average-sized house? Or a small house? Today, I have some of the smallest houses in the world. When I say small, I really mean small that only a single person can live in it.

For a small house, it still manages to have some space to fit in a  friend or two and has amenities like a bathroom, bedroom, workspace and some living space but no kitchen. How do you manage to eat then? Canned goods or just eat out?

I dream of owning this small house. It looks like one of Snow White's seven dwarves lives in it. I just hope it has a bathroom, a bedroom, a kitchen and some space that still makes it a home.

This is the smallest house in Britain. A stove, a cabinet, a water tap and a bed can still fit in this small house. It is said that a fisherman owns this house and is now an attraction site.  No child can run a round inside so they have to go outside to play. The only game that a child can play inside is chess or scrabble. I doubt his friend would fit to play with him in the house.

This house was made by John Stuart from Canada. A kitchen with a dishwasher and microwave, bathroom, bedroom, work space and a closet can fit in the house. The mission of this house is to allow more people to live more sustainably with less electricity costs. I can definitely live in this house since it has all the essential space you need in a house.

This house was made with recycled salvaged materials. Big houses mean more trees being cut down so if you're an environment-conscious sort of person, this house would work well for you. A single table and chair can still fit inside this house with the bed in the upper deck, a  ceiling fan and a bathroom. Not so sure if there was a  kitchen or just a sink.

Will people be able to see you changing or bathing inside? All those light can easily get inside and there's really no much room to hide, so you better make sure to close those windows before doing anything private. I'll have to make sure that the bathroom gets the best ventilation because I don't want the smell of my poo around my small house. But come to think of it, I might not be able to live in such a small house after all. But they're all very impressive and brilliantly done. I hope I get to visit them all. Choose your house wisely and plan ahead of what house you would want to live in.
