WITH everything from food to energy prices rising amid the cost of living, it's no wonder people are trying to cut costs wherever they can.
And a clever woman has revealed the genius of what she did – by buying a shed and converting it into a super stylish tiny house.
In the clip posted to TikTok (@happy.homestead), she says, “POV: You turned a shed into a house so you can have financial freedom.”
The proud tiny house owner captioned the post: “Total cost is less than £235 ($300) per month including electricity bill, water bill and internet.”
She then gave social media users a glimpse into her shed transformation – and it's no surprise people were so impressed.
In stark contrast to the empty shell she starts with, the DIY guru then shows off the spacious open-plan living/dining room.
The living room has modern light wooden floorboards and a stylish brown leather sofa.
Meanwhile, the kitchen has all the amenities one needs, including ample worktop space, refrigerator, hob and sink.
Elsewhere, the bedroom is large enough for a bed and TV, while the fresh white bathroom features brick tiles, a bath, toilet and sink.
In response to an intrigued social media user who asked which country she lives in, the savvy DIY expert replied: “They're my grandparents!!
“My mother, my grandparents and I live on this piece of land, but it is so big that we can't see each other's houses when we walk outside.
“So thankful for my mom and dad.”
It didn't take long for the post to go viral, racking up more than 857,000 views and hundreds of comments from very impressed social media users.
“I'm living my dream,” wrote one.
A second enthused: “Yaaaas queen!!! now you can enjoy life without having to worry about money all the time. I wish you the best!”
A third wrote: “Amazing!”
Meanwhile, a fourth commented: “Goals!”
Another praised: “I love this!”
Another commented: “Small living is so much better. A big house with space you don't use, filled with things you don't need, is just sad.”
And another added: “Omg I love that idea!”
