Adaptable tiny houses
Two entrepreneurs believe that the Westchester County housing market needs something that doesn”™t take up much room at all: tiny houses, which typically are 200 to 500 square feet, sometimes on wheels so they can be towed to different locations. Christos Athanasiou and Jonus Ademovic, both architects, are partners in the company, miniMax, which won approval from the Peekskill Planning Board to build a tiny house at 51 Hudson St. to be used as a sales office to introduce people to the tiny house concept.
“”¦There are a lot of people who have homes where they might use some kind of guest house or pool house or living quarters for an elderly parent. Our homes are kind of like a one-bedroom apartment that”™s been adapted to interact with nature,” said Athanasiou.
He said that anyone in Westchester with a regular house on a large-enough piece of property could add a tiny house to the backyard if zoning and other local regulations permitted. Prices range from $50,000 to $120,000 and the minihouses can be assembled by local craftsmen.
