Hardship / family care dwelling
Hardship Dwelling in Brush Prairie, Washington
A Brush Prairie family added a tiny home so an aging aunt could live nearby instead of moving into full-time care.
What mattered on this project
The family needed a better care arrangement for an aging aunt. A small home on the property kept support close while preserving more independence than a room inside the main house.
For families weighing care costs against an investment in their own property, a small home like this can be a longer-term housing plan.
Project highlights
- Kept an aging family member close to daily support.
- Created housing value on the family property instead of paying only for care.
- Built on an existing relationship with the customer.
