Compact Comfort: This Eastern Iowa Tiny House is Just 500 Sq. Feet [PHOTOS]
It seems like most things are getting bigger and bigger these days. TVs, phone screens, and me during the COVID pandemic (which feels like it was forever ago now, thank goodness). But what about homes?
Well, when it comes to a house, does everyone truly need a really big one? A jumbo-sized home isn't for everyone or every couple. But, do you think you could live in a 506-square-foot house? If so, I think I found your dream home! Sadly, it's not on the market right now, but that could always change.

Is this an actual tiny house?
Now in case you're wondering since I've thrown around the term "tiny house" if this is a tiny house, the answer is yes. Technically anything under 600 sq. feet is considered a tiny house, so if you're still trying to get in on that once-popular trend, keep an eye on this property.
Let's take a poke around the outside and inside of our Waterloo tiny house, shall we? I'd love to know what you think of this tiny home, and if you'd jump on it, or one similar, if it became available.
