Jori Wilkinson living with her husband and son in a tiny farmhouse shed in Washington state. Jori was drawn to the idea of debt-free living. To her, the tiny house seemed like the easiest way to do that. Jori always wanted to start their own business and she knows that it requires a significant amount of money. Therefore, they decided to live tiny until they afford to pay cash for a little bit bigger house someday in the future.
So they bought the 14’x40’ shell from a shed dealer and decided to finish the interior themselves. Luckily, both of them are really handy so they didn’t end up needing any help with the project. Likewise, Jori and her husband did all the work themselves from the plumbing to the finishing touches. However, from start to finish it took about 6 months to finish and costs about $30,000 including the shell.
If you are planning on living on a farm or with children I would recommend a mudroom.

But if they hired someone to do everything out it would probably have been double the cost. Further, they have been living in this tiny house for 4 years now. Currently, Jori’s tiny house is located on her parent’s 33 acres in Washington state. They have a plan on moving it onto their own land once their business is on steady ground.
However, the most challenging part of their house has been keeping it clean. Their small space gets dirty really fast because it is a farm with chicken and goats. Moreover, they just built a greenhouse off the side which will be a vegetable garden and also acts as a great hang out spot in winter. One of their businesses is in the beginning stages of is an Airbnb rental.
They are currently renovating it and will be available to rent this coming summer near Mt. Rainier in Washington state. Surprisingly, it’s located on 10 acres and has a private waterfall! How cool is that! To get the updates, you can follow their rental business ‘Northwest Cabin Co’ on Instagram here!
