About the host
Hosted by William Wells
Hello! I’m from Birmingham, Alabama. I went to The University of Alabama before moving to Waynesville, NC where I met my partner Kristi. We moved back to Northport in the fall of 2020 for work. I’m a thru-hiker and long distance runner. All of my free time is spent running or in our garden.
Why they chose this property
When my partner Kristi and I bought our house in spring of 2021, we had the idea of renovating this old building in the backyard into a tiny space to share . Shortly after looking more inside the building, talking with our new neighbors and doing some research on our own. We realized this was a old grocery store from the 40's and 50's.
Kristi's brother and dad, both carpenters from NY, came down to help us with the renovations. We are so excited to share the history of this historic building and let people experience tiny living in this renovated grocery store.
