Description:

A tiny house mini-village in the Catskills. SEVERAL largely off-the-grid tiny houses for sale in beautiful Livingston Manor, NY. The seeds of a tiny house village amidst a blueberry orchard at the end of a shale road with NO neighbors. Three handsomely built, distinctly different, small homes with every conceivable amenity--full kitchens, hot showers, excellent wi-fi, spacious living rooms, enormous sleeping lofts, composting toilets, woodstoves--thoughtfully arranged to maximize space and ease of use. The hillsides high elevation provides an oasis of cooler temperatures during every heat wave. While the location is unbelievably private and delightfully off the beaten path, its only a short drive to the cafes, breweries, and eateries in town. Hiking, camping, fishing, and rail trails are even closer.

The largest house is a THOW(tiny house on wheels) that was towed here after being lived in elsewhere. A 2-bedroom house, its roomy enough for a couple or small family. The other two houses, a cabin and a truly magical YURT, are income-producing rentals for weekenders seeking a getaway and artists finishing their latest masterpiece. The breathtaking view of the Catskills from their porches has to be seen to be appreciated. The YURT is a round house, albeit with walls of fabric instead of wood. Like the cabin and THOW, it has a kitchen, shower, toilet, woodstove, excellent wi-fi, etc. The beautiful skylight atop it means you can sleep under the stars come nightfall without journeying outside.

The money from the rentals means the property pays for itself. But our property offers far more than financial opportunity. The water in the houses comes from a spring up the hill. Each bathroom has an easy-to-use, amazingly hygienic composting toilet. The houses are heated primarily with wood. Living here offers both a rewarding glimpse of the sustainable life and an invaluable education in how comfortable a small house can be. If you too aspire to a simpler and greener life, were looking for like-minded souls to continue our mission.
