A WOMAN has shared how her dad wanted her to live close by so much that he built her an impressive tiny home in their back garden.

The lady called Lauren had previously moved out of the property she shared with her father.

But when she told him she wanted to come back, he was clearly over the moon and set to work on giving her her own dream pad in the grounds of their home.

And he pulled out all of the stops, creating a mini property many would envy thanks to its impressive living space and fully-equipped kitchen and bathroom.

Lauren opened up about her new home in a social media video posted to her TikTok profile @laurenmarp.

In it, Lauren explained: “I said I wanted to move home, and my dad built me a tiny house.”

The social media user then took the opportunity to give her 19.1k followers and anyone else that wanted to see a tour of the cute home, which she revealed took around a month to build from scratch.

First, she showed how her dad – who she described as “wonderful” – erected the property and its roof using wooden slats.

The next part of the process was to install windows and doors so that it looked like any other home you could see on the street.

Lauren’s dad then divided the house up into several different rooms so that his daughter could have everything she needed.

These included a mini-kitchen with a brick effect statement wall, small sink, cooker, microwave and fridge.

Lauren also showed how she’d opted for a sunflower theme inside, with matching yellow curtains.

Elsewhere, the living area has a large seating area, wall art and a large, flat-screen TV.

There’s also plenty of other personal touches, including candles and photo frames in a wooden cabinet.

And while many people would assume that the bathroom would be small and basic, Lauren showed hers was anything but.

Not only does she have a toilet, shower and large sink, but also lots of bathroom accessories from plants to colourful towels.

And last, but by no means least, Lauren showed that just up the ladder was her bedroom, complete with a spacious double bed, plenty of storage and bedside lamps.

And the video certainly attracted a lot of attention on TikTok, as people said they couldn’t believe how amazing her home was – and that they were jealous they didn’t have a dad who would do the same.

One person wrote: “I need a dad and a tiny house!”

A second social media user added: “Your dad loves you tons. It’s beautiful – kiss him and hug him every time you can”

While another joked: “Meanwhile, my dad is like, ‘so when are you moving out?’”
