I moved out of my 2-bed apartment into an unfinished storage shed – now I live rent free in my luxury tiny home
WITH the cost-of-living crisis affecting households up and down the country, it’s little surprise some people are struggling to pay their rent.
But one savvy man has come up with a genius way to live rent-free…by moving into an unused garage on his parents’ land and transforming it into a super stylist tiny home.
In a clip shared to TikTok (@stanwilkinss), Stan explained how he took the plunge and explained: “I moved out of my two-bedroom apartment moved into an unfinished storage shed.
“Now I live rent-free in my luxury tiny home.”
And for anyone who needs convincing, the proud DIY whizz was only too happy to take his social media followers on a tour of his new humble above.
Showing off his very impressive handiwork, he begins by sharing a snap of the unfinished storage shed, which features a wooden floor and appears to have been previously used as a storage space.
But after some hard work and determination, Stan reveals the finished results of his new living room, which features a large cream L-shaped sofa, light blue walls, shelves with plants, and even a mounted television on the wall.
Meanwhile, the open plan kitchen has cream cupboards, an oven and hob, and all of the cooking utensils needed to rustle up a tasty meal.
Walking down the hallway, you then arrive at Stan’s bathroom, which includes a toilet, basin and spacious curved shower – not to mention plenty of storage.
And last but not least is his bedroom, which continues the light blue theme, has a double bed and boasts another mounted TV on the wall.
Stan captioned the post: “Never looked back.”
