<\/p>\nA COUPLE who live off-grid in a shed have saved thousands on bills and rent since leaving their house 12 years ago.<\/p>\n
The innovative pair snapped up the shed for just \u00a35,400 but it\u2019s now worth so much more after they turned it into a luxury place to stay.<\/p>\n
\n<\/p>\n
John and Fin live in the fully transformed shack in Georgia and show off their lives on TikTok.<\/p>\n
The pair go by belovedcabin online and have gained over 143,000 followers and millions of likes on their videos about the shed conversion and their off-grid lifestyle.<\/p>\n
One of these show a detailed look into the shed \u2013 inside and out.<\/p>\n
Their lifestyle is working towards being fully self-sustainable with a gas cooker, wood-burning heater and a clever way of saving water.<\/p>\n
The shed started off as just one large empty space but John and Fin have transformed it into a four room house with a huge kitchen and bathroom added onto the original home.<\/p>\n A greenhouse kitchen where they grow most of their food sits overgrowing with plants from the walls to the ceiling on the side of the shed.<\/p>\n In a similar fashion the bathroom is also littered with plants climbing into the bath and over the windows.<\/p>\n As well as the extra spaces, there\u2019s a living area with a TV, sofa and fireplace, a bedroom and a storage room and wardrobe all within the shed.<\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n After buying the shed for just under \u00a35,500 they went on to spend \u00a35,000 on improving and building up the inside and an extra \u00a35,000 on installing the kitchen.<\/p>\n After splashing another \u00a31,200 on the bathroom their new home was complete for only \u00a316,700.<\/p>\n Almost all of the project was done completely by themselves and this saved them thousands.<\/p>\n According to one of the TikToks, the key to the restoration project according to the pair was, \u201creusing and re purposing to save money,\u201d and they saved loads simply by looking out for \u201csavaged material\u201d that most others would find useless.<\/p>\n The couple also raise chickens, goats and pigs and have a whopping 31 rescued cats and four dogs living with them.<\/p>\n The farm animals roam around their huge garden that they\u2019ve taken over after putting down the huge shed in a spot they fancied.<\/p>\n This isn\u2019t John and Finn\u2019s first big project as they\u2019ve fixed up a 126 sq ft, extraordinarily unique tiny house before.<\/p>\n The cute shack comes with a 100-year-old sink, a huge chandelier, red velvette sofa and a fancy golden bath tub with a lion\u2019s head.<\/p>\n On Airbnb they offer people the chance to stay in their other builds from tiny houses on wheels, a converted school bus, a tree house and two yurts.<\/p>\n They live by the motto: \u201cDo something BIG in your world\u2026 by simply doing something TINY!\u201d<\/p>\n Across the world more and more people are moving into more peculiar homes to help save money and live a better life.<\/p>\n One of these is a real-life Womble called Shadow who lives completely off-grid in British Columbia.<\/p>\n His house sits on a murky marshland and is made out of rubbish and recycled materials.<\/p>\n Shadow\u2019s goal in life is to leave the smallest ecological footprint he possibly can.<\/p>\n An adventurer also created her own off-grid home in the tropical rain forests of Hawaii.<\/p>\n![](\"https:\/\/www.thesun.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/lb-school-bus-comp.jpg\")
