Grace and Jacob, both 26, lived in an RV for three years before deciding to settle down. They traveled to 25 states before finding a tiny cabin in Florida for sale. The cabin, from Disney’s Fort Wilderness, cost $49,900 and was delivered to them in June.
The couple did most of the renovation work themselves, with some help for plumbing and electrical work. They painted, changed hardware, and updated the kitchen and bathroom. They sold some furniture that came with the cabin to help cover renovation costs.
Grace and Jacob spent their first night in the cabin in August. Even though renovations weren’t complete, they already felt at home. They plan to keep the cabin for the long term, possibly turning it into a rental in the future.
Overall, the couple is proud of what they have accomplished together and are excited about their new home.
