Soooo Cute! Tiny House, Tiny Yard - Updated

This is so cute, tucked snug between two larger homes.



I love the little yard. Together with the backyard, it's ample space to grow one's own herbs and veggies.

Here's the The Tiny Life blog from which that image comes.

ETA: The little house has its own website, writes a commenter! And the house is in Toronto!

But I find this interesting: "Current value: priceless." Does that mean no one lives there? That no one is allowed to buy it?

Also, I notice that the backyard has been paved over. What a shame! From the History page on the website:

After his wife passed away, [architect and builder] Mr. Weeden, 77 years of age, ... lived in the house for 6 more years, during which time he tended to the vegetable garden in the rear of the house, growing tomatoes, cabbages, Swiss chard, rhubarb and some flowers.


That's more like it!
