A Tiny Stone House


The other evening I was searching for pictures of small houses and I came across this picture on Maria Roff's blog http://icelandeyes.blogspot.com/2006_07_01_archive.html

According to her blog, this tiny cottage named Sómastaðir (or "Pleasant Place") was built by her great-grandfather in Reyðafjörður, Iceland. According to her post, there were 22 children in that family. As she writes, "they didn't all live in house at the same time, but I understand that it was always pretty crowded nevertheless."

This is the first tiny stone house I've seen on line. If any readers know of any others, I'd love to hear from you.

Am looking for tiny stone houses myself - in a few years will be buying land and building on it and the first house I put in will be for living while the main house is built. After that it will be a guest house. And I want it to look like this:
