Tiny House for Sale to Buyers Under 5 Feet Tall

— -- Anna Jones said she was surprised to learn that the house she was purchased 15 years ago had an additional little house sitting on the property, which was fit to live in for people standing under five feet tall.

"We bought it in June of 2000," said Jones, of Brick, New Jersey. "I have a corner property and the house is in the front. When I first looked at the house I didn’t even notice it. I know that sounds crazy, but I never did. I don’t think it was in the listing. When I went inside to look, then I knew that house belonged to the property."

Jones told ABC News that the previous owners of her home built the tiny house in the 1960's as a playhouse for their children, and as a replica of their own home.

After Jones and her family moved in, they discovered that a local news organization had done a segment on the house, making it a popular New Jersey attraction that people from as far as Israel have come to visit.

"So many people started to come and see the house," she said. "We would have parties and people would be walking up on our property taking pictures, so we were a little nervous of my kids going into the house because we weren’t sure of the intentions of the people visiting."

"I don’t have a problem coming to sight-see, but just be respectful," she said. "You can get a picture, but it's when the people that come and vandalize the house that make it bad."

The little house, made of brick, is equipped with running water, electricity, a small kitchen, living room, fireplace, bedroom, bathroom and even a scaled-down shower.

The furniture inside is made miniature to accommodate little people or young kids.

Now, Jones said she's willing to sell it to the highest bidder.

"It started out as a joke to sell it because we were having a little financial difficulty," she said. "We said, 'Let's just see if we could sell the playhouse. People are always interested in it.' I posted it on my Facebook and a local news station did another story. It aired in a magazine and that's when it really took off."

"If someone wants to make a nice offer on it, excavate it, and take it, it would help us financially," Jones added. "Or, if someone wants to help renovate it, that’s great. It needs some tender love and care, I just can't keep up with it."

The Jones family has had one person and multiple real estate agents inquire about the tiny brick house so far.

Jones said that New Jersey locals are pushing for her to keep the house, as they feel it stands as a neighborhood landmark.
