First Tiny Home Neighborhood Planned in Georgia
Eight homes, varying in size from 250 square feet to 500 square feet have been approved in an Atlanta suburb.
"The first 'tiny home neighborhood' in Georgia is coming to the small city of Clarkston," reports J.D. Capelouto.
"The DeKalb County suburb approved 'The Cottages on Vaughan' at a Tuesday night City Council meeting," explains Capelouto. "Situated one block from downtown Clarkston, the eight homes will be built on permanent foundations on the half-acre lot."
The diminutive size of the homes (at 250 to 500 square feet, eight in total on half an acre), are matched by the price tag: $100,000 to $125,000.
