81 Colonial Rd, Plainfield, CT 06374

People have all kinds of reasons for choosing to live smaller. Some are looking to tread more lightly on the earth, some want to unclutter their lives and some are looking for ways to live free from mortgage debt. This particular home in Colonial Woods affords a bit more space and yet not at more cost than the average tiny home. With just under 1,000 square feet, 81 Colonial Road can support guests or larger family gatherings easily. There's also more storage space than tiny living usually accommodates; two closets in the primary bedroom and a walk-in/reach-in closet in the second. Actually, the great room floorplan makes the best use of the space and this home doesn't feel that small. The roads in Colonial Woods are private and the subdivision allows fishing in their private pond. The clubhouse is regularly booked for birthday, baby shower and wedding parties. In general, tiny living works best for those who are willing to abandon the widespread social ideal that “bigger is better” and replace it with “less is more.” That is, having less space, and fewer things to fill it, means more money, more freedom, and more time for the things that matter most. That’s the ethos of the tiny house movement, and the key to its appeal. If you're curious about the tiny home lifestyle, see if this is the right fit for you!
