A tiny, 10ft-wide house has been listed for $619,000 in Florida.The two-bedroom property was completed earlier this year on a leftover lot in the north resort city of Jacksonville Beach.A next-door neighbour who had been using the site as a garden persuaded others to complain about the tiny house development at a public hearing vote - and the board was successfully convinced to disallow adjustments.The developer, however, took this as a challenge and according to Ryan Wetherhold of Oceanside Real Estate, almost built it “out of spite”.The property hit the market this March but has yet to sell.
10-foot-wide Florida 'skinny house' built out of spite. Here's what it costs, and a tour

Builder John Atkins and Ryan Wetherhold of Oceanside Real Estate decided to build a 15-foot-wide house on an empty 25-foot-wide lot in Jacksonville Beach, but they got some pushback from the neighbors.

$400k a ‘low budget’ in Northeast Florida housing hot spots
Grace Hardy works in special education, and her husband Kyle works in IT. The family lives in a three-bedroom, two-bathroom home in southern Duval County with their 4-year-old son.

But the Hardys — like many prospective homebuyers with spending caps of $400,000 — are finding that once-ample budgets aren’t cutting it in Northeast Florida’s most competitive housing arenas.
