Chris Marsh has lived in tiny homes intermittently for the past five years, and last year created his own miniature wooden house to fit in a back garden.
A man is saving hundreds of pounds a month after giving up living in a conventional house and moving into a tiny eco-home he built himself in a garden.
Qualified builder Chris previously rented a two-bedroom house for £800 a month, with monthly bills of £80 for electricity, £70 for gas, £25 for water and £160 for council tax. "When you rent, it's just disposable money that you never get back really. Building something of my own was a bit of a win-win."
The garden he lives in is just 20 metres away from the owner's house, who he thankfully gets on with. He said: "It's just a nice way to live without having the burden of worrying about hundreds of pounds going out every month," he explained. Chris moved into the property in 2022 with his partner, who had never heard of eco-homes. The pair had to choose what to take with them when they moved and put other items into storage.
