Charming homes for sale have a California twist — they are in a tiny home village

Tiny houses have swept the nation recently due to soaring real estate prices and sky-high rent, so a lot of people are looking to down size. And a village in California is taking advantage of that opportunity.

Recently, three homes in a tiny home village in Topanga have hit the market for $299,000 each.

“As the U.S. continues to tackle affordable housing, these tiny home villages have become lower cost entry points for first-time homebuyers. These airstream-like homes offer a chance to own in the heart of the Topanga Village for a much lower-cost than a traditional home,” listing agent Christopher Damon said in a news release.

The tiny homes in Topanga, California, are close to everything — Pepperdine University, Calabasas and Santa Monica — all​ where a typical home costs over seven figures.
