Chelsea’s charming tiny cottage, the Irish Gypsy, is located on her family’s Oregon nut farm and serves as the ideal illustration of minimalist living.

Chelsea adopted the tiny home lifestyle due to the appeal of the gypsy life and her love of small places.

Her whimsically designed home by Vintage Cottages is a representation of her love of adventure and desire to remain near to her family.

When Chelsea isn’t traveling the world by jet, she makes The Irish Gypsy, with its increased height and width, her home.

The Irish Gypsy serves as a gathering place for the entire neighborhood.

Chelsea’s grandfather, brother, and his family all reside nearby, which fosters a sense of community and shared experiences.

The nut farm is a hub of activity and intergenerational bonding, with activities ranging from harvesting blackberries to preserving peaches and taking bike rides.

Chelsea enjoyed settling down with her loved ones after six years of travel and cherished the sense of community her modest cottage provided.

The call of the open road, though, was too strong to ignore.

Chelsea made the decision to go back to her nomadic way of life after spending the previous two and a half years in her modest home.

While she is away, the Irish Gypsy is rented out, earning her money to support her travels.

The house, which cost $33,200 to buy, is currently rented to a firefighter who is frequently out on duty.

This arrangement protects the home from excessive use while assisting Chelsea in covering the mortgage over a period of four and a half years.

The Irish Gypsy’s exterior is just as fascinating as its interior.

Chelsea can sit up in bed in the loft because to the house’s two-foot height addition and tall cedar construction.

Additionally, the breadth has been increased to nine and a half feet, giving the house plenty of room without compromising its mobility.

The house’s attractiveness is enhanced by the windows’ gypsy-inspired design and the porch’s addition.

Despite having neutral hues, the house shines out against the nut farm’s rich vegetation.

The house feels vast due to the wide layout and high ceilings, and the wooden interiors give it a rustic atmosphere.

Despite being modest, the kitchen is well-equipped with a refrigerator and an oven.

To meet Chelsea’s needs, more counter space and storage were added.

Although small, the bathroom is functional and comfortable, and it has a typical toilet and a shower that is bigger than those found in RVs.

The guy who used to develop boat interiors created the spacious closet, which is necessary given Oregon’s unpredictable weather.

With two distinct racks and additional storage space at the bottom of the stairs, the closet is intelligently conceived.

Chelsea actually keeps her treasured hope chest from high school under the stairs.

Although the loft is higher, it is still difficult to sit upright, but Chelsea’s nieces and nephews adore it because it is a cozy area.

The loft’s beautiful views from its windows make waking up to the sun in the morning a pleasurable experience.

Additionally, the loft has bookcases on either side, which Chelsea and her father built themselves.

The Irish Gypsy’s living quarters are evidence of Chelsea’s ingenuity and cunning.

Chelsea and her friend Lindsay created the pallet couches using pallets they found on the street.
Wide and comfortable couches that may be adjusted to become a guest bed are available.

A creative space-saving design in the living area also includes a table that can be folded away when not in use.

Chelsea may have the independence she loves by living small.

The Irish Gypsy gives her the freedom to live the life she wants, giving her the chance to see the globe while being near to her family.
