House in mini format: This is what the tiny houses in Puchheim-Ort should look like.

Puchheim is getting a new place to stay overnight for tourists: the building committee approved three rather special holiday apartments.
These are mini houses, so-called tiny houses.
Puchheim – In the end there was agreement in the building committee of the city of Puchheim.
The application to build three holiday apartments at Augsburger Straße 5 was unanimously approved.
In the future, there will be a fifth overnight accommodation option for non-residents in addition to the Parsberg hotels (which are in the neighborhood) and Seidl as well as the Leitner and Obermayer guesthouses.
The base area
Strictly speaking, the planned holiday homes are not apartments, but rather tiny houses.
These should have a floor area of just 30 square meters each and a ridge height of 4.2 meters.
Three car and four bicycle parking spaces are provided.
Some committee members briefly had doubts as to whether Puchheim was actually a travel destination.
Third mayor Thomas Hofschuster (CSU), who chaired the meeting, countered not entirely seriously: “Maypole, church, bus stop and a shop nearby, what more could you want?”
Will this be a campsite?
Economics officer Hans Knürr from the Green Party also expressed concerns about whether more tiny houses should follow.
In principle he has nothing against it, but he is afraid of a “permanent residence”.
Knürr: “I see a whole campsite coming.”
Hofschuster then emphasized that one can only assess the application that is available.
So three tiny houses.
If more mini-houses are applied for in the future, there will be a new assessment.
When it comes to use, the third mayor also assumes that “it is as imagined”, i.e. as a holiday home.
But he made it clear: “If there are any doubts about this later, it will be checked.”
There was also a request from Wolfgang Wuschig, who sits on the city council for UBP.
Wuschig feared that the area previously used as a storage area could be a suspected area for soil contamination.
However, although this suspected area exists, another area of the property is affected.

Really trendy
Puchheim's future holiday homes are very trendy.
Tiny houses are becoming increasingly popular in Germany, not just as holiday homes, but as residences.
The trend recently spilled over from the USA.
There, the space-saving miracles experienced their big boom after the financial crisis of 2007. While originally it was primarily about lower costs, a minimalist lifestyle and a low CO2 footprint now also play a role.
You can distinguish between three types: The classic is mobile and fits on a trailer.
Alternatively, these can be built from repurposed shipping or shipping containers, or like a normal house, just smaller.
