murphy bed, bathtub, office under the stairs, entryway storage, huge backyard deck, hanging dishrack with drip tray, footpedal stopper -- so many interesting features! for 35k, this house is easily one of the best tinies I've ever seen. great job! 👍💚
Really lovely and affordable. It lacks nothing. Love the bathtub! So many tiny houses now are super expensive which I think is counterintuitive. If you’re spending a fortune you might as well buy a house with land. This looks way more expensive than 35K. The beautiful deck adds more living space. It’s very comfortable. Brilliant!
Exactly, I am not at all interested in a tiny house that costs as much or more than a home on land....people should really think first before paying that much. I'm a RE Appraiser and with no land...the value goes down rapidly like a vehicle...its a depreciating asset. In additon, very hard to find a place to park it permenantly
This is without a doubt, one of the best tiny house builds on youtube... and I've dozens and dozens of them from the super popular to up-and-coming channels. It's kinda my Netflix :) I took notes... I think the price is a typo though (: ...Details were refined to function well. I've never seen a foot petal for water nor an office with a real life window under the stairs before :D Not to mention a sunken tub and a bed that you can actually stand in! Pure GENIUS!!! Brilliant work Bonnie and Clyde! And the Tiny House Award for innovation well within budget goes to.... Sara and Joel!
Hands down the BEAT build ive seen that's actually attainable. $35k is very doable. These other builds are so expensive they defeat the point. Doing the labor yourself cut the cost down a lot. ❤️❤️❤️
Murphy bed and elevating bed would be my choice for a tiny house. This home has lots of character and many great design features, such as the office under the stairs and under units drawers. A great outcome for $35,000!
I really like everything about their design. I'd need a W/D (hate laundromats) but seems that is a possibility. I really like the murphy bed, very perfect design with places for clothing, books and a lamp. From what I've seen elsewhere, I cannot abide a bed that takes up the entire space with no place for a nightstand type thing. I mean where are you supposed to set a book, a lamp, a glass of wine a phone and some condoms? Let's be real. 😉
So many great features--I really appreciate the slightly bumped out front door. Even a little bit of transitional entry space is something most tinies lack--great solution!
I think if you build yourself, your blood, sweat and tears are in the build giving off good energy. I'm hopeful of the future for the new generation who are moving away from the system to live more intentionally. I like this home because tiny house living is about energy efficiency, and spatial minimalism and working on a tiny budget. What is the point of moving from a big house to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on a tiny house. It's about cutting out the consumerism and living simply. Congratulations guys! Enjoy your beautiful home
I love the drip tray above the sink, that's one of my favorite features of their tiny. The simple stairs with a desk/computer under it is a great touch! I like their kitchen table and the purpose behind it, but I'd round the corners so it can't stab me while walking past I'm not a huge fan of murphy beds, but their made me like them a bit more, considering how quickly and easily they adjust it. I really like the idea of a loft as a hang out space, not a main place you'd need to use every day. Great tiny for only $35,000!
Thank you! We originally planned to round off the corners of the counter, but decided we liked how it looked as-is. We thought walking past it would be tight, but it turns out there's quite a bit of room there. But we could always round off the corners in-place if we change our minds!
@@saraquinn2006 where did you source your dish drying shelves? We’ve been wanting to install something similar in our tiny house but I haven’t been able to find one hefty enough for hand thrown dishes. Yours looks like just the thing! Thanks so much and beautiful house!
@@hollybobisuthi7618 We got one that supposed to mount in a cabinet, but modified our shelving to fit with the open shelves instead! It is very sturdy, it seems. Here's a link to the one we got: www.amazon.com/Kitchen-Folding-Cabinet-Stainless-Organizer/dp/B07FVTKVJ9/ref=asc_df_B07FVTKVJ9/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=309820238078&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=7049131152898875929&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9061079&hvtargid=pla-683946101484&psc=1
Two things: 1) the biggest sources of moisture in a tiny home are metal siding, poor ventilation, and those that sweat (everybody). First two are easy fixes when constructing a home. 2) They could build a platform as part of the underside of the Murphy bed for a murphy sofa platform. And incorporate footrests/coffee table well as part of the bed support. They incorporated a great amount of value, and it's being without a loft bed is super.
Our biggest project was a camper van conversion. Although we had been married for ten years it certainly put our relationship under a lot of challenges. Ian was the builder and I was the suggestioner. We eventually got there, even though there are still changes happening to the van, but the relationship strengthened in the knowledge that we did it together. Ok, I suggested more than I did, but he is a wonderful wise man who learned that a happy wife was certainly a good life.🤣
This is one if the loveliest tiny houses I have seen! I love the Murphy bed the pedal for the tap and the hanging drying rack along with the esthetics of the materials chosen for the home. Nice work you two!
I like this couple. Imagine, two people who are actually willing to work at a relationship. Congrats to them for finding each other. And congrats for the wonderful home they built for themselves. Lots of great ideas! One suggestion that I would try...I would make the murphy bed a half-murphy bed. I would make it so that the bottom half folds up and over the top half, forming a couch. That way, they would still have floor space, a place to sit, a hidden bed, and access to the shelf space behind. Just an idea. Anyway, love the house. Hope they continue to enjoy it together.
I watch so many of these, & for some reason, I get a really good vibe from this couple. I can tell that they're good ppl - laid back, very comfortable w/each other, & a great team! Btw the 7 thumbs downs are ridiculous! This was well narrated by the couple, w/excellent editing!
@@TinyHouseExpedition Totally agree, wholesome and real people, think they would be good teachers/coaches/parents… also Joel somehow reminds me of Mark Ruffalo, dunno where that comes from!
Totally agree! You can see the look in their eyes that they are kind/good people. They are the kind of people you want to surround yourself. Pretty chill/relax vibe. And the way they let each other talk, that’s a great team right there!
Of all the tiny house tours I've seen on video (probably hundreds by now), I believe this may be my favorite tiny house so far! Everything about it seems exactly right, from the whole concept to some of the "small touches." You *should* be proud of it. It's wonderful!
So many greats: food pedal faucet control, Murphy bed design, side table drawer, loft (which would become my sewing/crafts space, corner window in the bathroom. I'm running out of commas. My goodness you did a elegant design.
You should be proud of it; it's one of the best thought out tiny homes I've ever seen. Love the design. I think I'd want a slightly longer home (2 feet) to accomodate a sofa (in three pieces that slide out of the way on casters - flip down brakes - leaving two seat on both sides - I'd make those drawer end tables a bit more deep so they could act as end tables when in couch mode - or a single piece in the middle the size of the bed width) and fold down table (an art piece) in front on the murphy bed. (A loveseat on casters would fit with the current design. When putting the bed down, you could shove it in front of the doorway as you'd still have egress through the back door.) That way there'd still be floor space but also additional working space. But more because I'm disabled and so getting up and down from the floor would be a challenge (and they'd also provide more storage. Love the desk under the stairs as well. Your kitchen is so well thought out and combined with the storage around the bed and outdoor storage means you've probably got a lot of the storage you need.
I thought of some of your suggestions too. I thought the end tables should've been the size of the whole drawer. I would've went with a fold up couch or chairs because I have some knee arthritis and getting up off the floor is not fun. But they seem to be in pretty good shape, probably doesn't bother them, haha! Also, she made a big deal about how they don't use much electricity, but then you see the stove is propane and heat is wood. Think it would've been easier to just hook it up to electric, unless it's real expensive where they live, there's a lot of outages or they don't want to be dependent on the grid. Could solve that with a solar panel on the roof.
I would have upholstered the bottom of the bed and placed a large ottoman in front to create a more comfortable fake sofa when the bed is closed. The depth of the ottoman and height of the upholstered section designed so that you slide the ottoman forward to sit under the foot of the bed at night. It wouldn't be supporting the bed, but a snug fit. I also think that I would have designed a cubby and a bit of a slide out surface in the side cabinets to serve as a side table/night stand.
What a fantastic, owner-designed and -built tiny house. Lots of clever storage, great space under the stairs for their office, and a really nice deck, and a storage shed for their bikes. Awesome.
I have yet to see a couple coming out of a building project, saying there were no challenges. Builds character and hopefully relationships. Often tells you a lot about yourself! Something to be proud of, while providing a more independent space that belongs to you.That has to be liberating! I'm older and found that no house is big enough if you can't comfortably share a space... You both seem to have much in common. Well thought out design collaboration. Biking and skiing are great sports, as well as Yoga. Good beginnings. All the best! ~ Diane
Totally agree Diane, Very well-thought-out, most impressed with the relationship you can tell they have and how they work together on it & video!! 💕 Just wondering how they fit all their clothes in those two small closets!! That would be hard for me probably the hardest part! 😅 I'm very happy for them!
if u told me i could move in next week i would and mot change a thing. so friendly and cozy. desk and stair idea clever. i am proud of this house for u also. good work😊🙂 and a bisiting friendly cat too. wish u all the best!!
This is not only my favourite tiny home but I adore this couple. Both they and the home feel so authentic and not staged. There are so many great ideas in this home and it's really the only one I could see myself living in rather than just taking snippets of ideas from. The price range is within the realistic realms of more people rather than a few of the $100K + that I have seen
What a beautiful and well thought out design! This is exactly what I would choose. I love the idea of a murphy bed for a tiny house, always have. AND, that bathtub...gurrrl I feel ya! It's my one non-negotiable. Well done.
This is such a beautiful tiny house! What a lovely couple, creative & hard working building this house must have been a true bonding experience! For sure one day when they want to start a family, they may need more room, but for now it’s a perfect sanctuary & they even have the neighbor’s cat who prefers to hang out there....LOL!
It is such a pleasure to see the creativity and uses of space that people design and live in. Why would anyone ever choose to give a thumbs down to someone's dream home? They didn't design it for you; they designed it for themselves. If it isn't your favorite, please just quietly move on.
Its always nice to see functional space in tiny homes. It helps to see the space actively being used as opposed to the 'Better Homes and Gardens look' that no one lives in. Great build!
This may be my favorite tiny house design that I have ever seen! Really love the murphy bed with wardrobe and the clever night stand drawers. So much creative thought went into the design for storage solutions and other unique features in this beautiful and functional tiny house.
I love your tiny house! I have looked at many tiny hoses and this is truly the best thought house I have seen. No really frustrating causing areas built in to your design. I wish you would sell a blueprint of your place and include how.to’s of your extra design features. I would be glad to purchase such a product.
I was thinking the same thing...I have watched 1000's of tiny house videos and would like to be first in line to purchase this one should you ever upgrade and sell it!! I'd even consider moving there!!! But since there's so much time, love and memories built into your home, can I settle for the plans?!
Hands down this is my favorite tiny house. Ya'll thought of everything! These two could advise others on their build or sell this design. Very impressive.
Love it love it love it! I would probably have a fold-out couch frame secured to the underside of the Murphy bed that could be then be unfolded and made into a couch for those two pillows that now are on the floor when the Murphy bed is folded up. So when the bed was folded away, the couch frame would be unfolded for those two pillows. When the bed was unfolded and down, the couch frame would be secured under the bed. But this home is just about perfect the way it is, and has given me ideas for my tiny condo.
This tiny house was created with such thoughtfulness, creativity, purpose, and love. This couple is so delightful, and I pray they are very happy and still enjoying this FANTASTIC home that they built. Kudos❣️👍❣️
Lovely home, lovely couple. I like how you used so much wood through out your home and kept it natural. It’s timeless and adds warmth and a connection to the outdoors.
Fun video! I loved their home. So many cool ideas: the over the sink dish drainer, the flip up step in the kitchen for a seat, the tucked away desk, the beautiful tub and the ‘waterfall’ sink, the tiny 8 inch entry way that was so functional (!), the drawer that became a nightstand at the bed, and so much more. Very clever!! Thanks for sharing!
What a fantastic couple and I loved how they talked through their design choices! For example, choosing to put a desk instead of storage, I thought...wow, this house is really meant to be lived in and used well. I'm always surprised when there are no coat racks or places for shoes in a tiny house. This couple has not only thought through so many "problems", but solved them in very creative ways. Such a livable house, I'd love to live in a tiny like theirs! Congrats!
They said they have been living there for about a year and a half, so they have had a bit of time to work through any design details that rubbed up against their needs. What a wonderful place they built!
The coolest thing to me is the "bump-out" for the entryway! I haven't seen that yet...and I have watched a ton of tiny home videos. Such a practical use of space as it also defines the entryway. Great job!
I absolutely love their simple style, which is very much my style. I could see myself living in this one. I love the murphy bed, the kick drawers in the kitchen, the drip pan/shelving system for drying dishes, the bathtub, the bathroom sink, their outdoor space, and the list goes on. I'd prefer a flushing toilet that's hooked up to sewer, since it looks like they're pretty well set in that spot, but I guess you can't win them all. Great job!
Very nice video. You are a great couple! There was alot of peace in your presentation. I enjoyed the background music choices too. Great job! God bless you!
I love your format. How you let the owners speak. We only hear the owners, there is no cutting people off mid sentence and such. It’s much more soothing that way. 😊💕
Loved how they made the drying rack and making the counter not look cluttered and is able to be used while dishes were drying. Also, great idea for the stairs!
I've watched so many videos about tiny houses and this is the most beautiful, best designed one I've seen. It's the first one I can imagine living in, particularly because of the lovely wood everywhere, the tub!, the Murphy bed, and the awesome kitchen with a proper sink and stovetop. Every tiny house I see with those loft bedrooms I think, Nope. This is a little bit of heaven.
So attractive and functional. It’s obvious how intentional you were in planning and building the spaces in your home. Congratulations on a beautiful home
Love your tiny home and all the great features you have put into place both inside and outside your home. You seem like a great couple and should be extremely proud of all you have accomplished in your build process. I also love all of the outside privacy you have. You seem likely a lovely couple and I wish you both a great future together. ❤❤❤
WOW! I couldn't have done better myself. Congrats on an extremely well built "Personal home". Nothing wrong with being a "tiny house" dweller...you're just ahead of the wave.
This is the most perfect tiny house I’ve yet seen. Stunning attention to detail. So cozy and homey. I too love the bathtub. And the Murphy bed is a brilliant idea!💕
Great Tiny Home, great video and great couple. Their story is fantastic. I love the Murphy Bed idea and I thought the same thing in my dream tiny house: Murphy bed with clothing storage on each side. The drying racks above the sink is another great idea. My home would be smaller, shorter with a deck above. I would incorporate a desk and tv on the Murphy bed wall during the day.
Greetings from New Zealand. Have to tell you this is the best tiny house I've seen by far. Cant believe the storage and love the private outdoor area. You have built an absolutely amazing home.
Aren’t they the cutest! What a fantastic home, such genius thinking went into this design! Love the minimalist ideas with all the details to make living easy, i got all emotional, silly old me! ❤️❤️❤️
I really love that your site shows tiny homes that are affordable. Most homes are over $100k which doesn’t make as much sense to me if your going tiny. I’m saving these videos and will be reaching out to your company when I’m ready to build. I just hope Georgia comes around and starts to allow tiny homes.
it s nice to see finally a tiny home that is cosy AND where people actually LIVE in. you know like their lives ;) a home without an extra spare lightbulb really isnt a home.. xxx
This is my fave tiny house! The design is so smart, elegant, efficient and clean!!! Their outdoor space is beautiful too. And, they did it all themselves which blows my mind. Such lovely and talented homeowners.
Many great ideas. I love the natural light with multiple windows, especially by the bathtub.Also the wood stove is great. I lived in the rainforest in Hawai’i and moisture was a major problem. Love the Murphy bed too! Good job you two.
A nice long enjoyable video you have here. So much aesthetic, clever solutions. The price is about as good as it could get for doing your own labor. It's just so different. Thanks.
They should put that big pillow on the floor in front of the Murphy bed in front of the head board/closet doors so they can sit up in bed comfortably and maybe read a book, watch tv? Then build a storage bench in front of the Murphy bed where the cushion was on the floor not too high so u can still open the bed fully when u take the cushion off and use as a head board cushion. Then when the bed is up more seating for people while your cooking because u said u like to hang out with people in the kitchen. Does that sound good? Maybe even a foldable bench u can slide under the bed? Lovely house💜❤️💜❤️👍😊
“We didn’t prioritize having a big bathroom” had to laugh at that, I think this is one of the best, but also one of the largest, bathrooms I’ve seen in a tiny house!
That sink cutoff is a killer idea. Every RV could use one. On the same topic RV showerheads have a cutoff button so you can get wet, cut the water off while you soap up and then turn it back on for a quick rinse. All of them dribble a little but that’s useful too. I have one in my shower in my cabin.
murphy bed, bathtub, office under the stairs, entryway storage, huge backyard deck, hanging dishrack with drip tray, footpedal stopper -- so many interesting features! for 35k, this house is easily one of the best tinies I've ever seen. great job! 👍💚
Very clever so very well throughout. Construction looks perfect. Kudos. Love it
Really lovely and affordable. It lacks nothing. Love the bathtub! So many tiny houses now are super expensive which I think is counterintuitive. If you’re spending a fortune you might as well buy a house with land. This looks way more expensive than 35K. The beautiful deck adds more living space. It’s very comfortable. Brilliant!
Well it was $35K because they did all of the labor. Otherwise it would have been way more money.
I agree at least $80,000

I have yet to see a couple coming out of a building project, saying there were no challenges. Builds character and hopefully relationships. Often tells you a lot about yourself! Something to be proud of, while providing a more independent space that belongs to you.That has to be liberating! I'm older and found that no house is big enough if you can't comfortably share a space...
You both seem to have much in common. Well thought out design collaboration. Biking and skiing are great sports, as well as Yoga. Good beginnings.
All the best! ~ Diane
Totally agree Diane,
Very well-thought-out, most impressed with the relationship you can tell they have and how they work together on it & video!! 💕
Just wondering how they fit all their clothes in those two small closets!!
That would be hard for me probably the hardest part! 😅
I'm very happy for them!
Oooh love the foot operate tap…in tiny home or off the grid, essential for water preservation. Excellent and thoughtful in every aspect.
This is still one of my all time favorite tiny houses and this couple...just love them!
Yes they really deserve to be proud of their house because it's simply beautiful.
if u told me i could move in next week i would and mot change a thing. so friendly and cozy. desk and stair idea clever. i am proud of this house for u also. good work😊🙂 and a bisiting friendly cat too.
wish u all the best!!
the love between the couple in this video is most noticeable and significantly very special
The foot pedal is genius! I'm totally doing this. Good thinking Joel ..
This is not only my favourite tiny home but I adore this couple. Both they and the home feel so authentic and not staged. There are so many great ideas in this home and it's really the only one I could see myself living in rather than just taking snippets of ideas from. The price range is within the realistic realms of more people rather than a few of the $100K + that I have seen
I love your home so many great features. I’m 75 and a widow so I appreciate your Murphy bed like you I think that made sense Brilliant design TFS
What a beautiful and well thought out design! This is exactly what I would choose. I love the idea of a murphy bed for a tiny house, always have. AND, that bathtub...gurrrl I feel ya! It's my one non-negotiable. Well done.
Really perfect house. So attractive and cozy looking. It's a HOME.
This is such a beautiful tiny house! What a lovely couple, creative & hard working building this house must have been a true bonding experience! For sure one day when they want to start a family, they may need more room, but for now it’s a perfect sanctuary & they even have the neighbor’s cat who prefers to hang out there....LOL!
It is such a pleasure to see the creativity and uses of space that people design and live in. Why would anyone ever choose to give a thumbs down to someone's dream home? They didn't design it for you; they designed it for themselves. If it isn't your favorite, please just quietly move on.
I love tiny houses! Such clever ideas. The foot pedal, the nightstand, and the murphy bed are perfect additions.
Its always nice to see functional space in tiny homes. It helps to see the space actively being used as opposed to the 'Better Homes and Gardens look' that no one lives in. Great build!
This may be my favorite tiny house design that I have ever seen! Really love the murphy bed with wardrobe and the clever night stand drawers. So much creative thought went into the design for storage solutions and other unique features in this beautiful and functional tiny house.
Say YES to Murphy beds! So much happiness is exuded from this couple and it created a beautiful space.
This tiny house is just brilliant !!!!! Congratulations to the couple !!! What a such achievement.
This tiny house is gorgeous. Practical and beautiful. Inspiring. Well done and thanks for showing.
Your house is beautiful! I love the layout! May you be blessed with many years to make happy memories in your home!
Hello Sarah your smile is priceless😊
there are many small things unique to this house that are very nice touches such as the water pedal in the kitchen. Lovely home.
👍😍I love the last minute desk idea instead of ”just” for storage. I think it’s smartly designed. 💝
I love your tiny house! I have looked at many tiny hoses and this is truly the best thought house I have seen. No really frustrating causing areas built in to your design. I wish you would sell a blueprint of your place and include how.to’s of your extra design features. I would be glad to purchase such a product.
I was thinking the same thing...I have watched 1000's of tiny house videos and would like to be first in line to purchase this one should you ever upgrade and sell it!! I'd even consider moving there!!! But since there's so much time, love and memories built into your home, can I settle for the plans?!
Hands down this is my favorite tiny house. Ya'll thought of everything! These two could advise others on their build or sell this design. Very impressive.
Love it love it love it! I would probably have a fold-out couch frame secured to the underside of the Murphy bed that could be then be unfolded and made into a couch for those two pillows that now are on the floor when the Murphy bed is folded up. So when the bed was folded away, the couch frame would be unfolded for those two pillows. When the bed was unfolded and down, the couch frame would be secured under the bed. But this home is just about perfect the way it is, and has given me ideas for my tiny condo.
Love the full size bathtub and shower with the windows to see the greenery outside.
This tiny house was created with such thoughtfulness, creativity, purpose, and love. This couple is so delightful, and I pray they are very happy and still enjoying this FANTASTIC home that they built. Kudos❣️👍❣️
Lovely home, lovely couple. I like how you used so much wood through out your home and kept it natural. It’s timeless and adds warmth and a connection to the outdoors.
Fun video! I loved their home. So many cool ideas: the over the sink dish drainer, the flip up step in the kitchen for a seat, the tucked away desk, the beautiful tub and the ‘waterfall’ sink, the tiny 8 inch entry way that was so functional (!), the drawer that became a nightstand at the bed, and so much more. Very clever!! Thanks for sharing!
What a fantastic couple and I loved how they talked through their design choices! For example, choosing to put a desk instead of storage, I thought...wow, this house is really meant to be lived in and used well. I'm always surprised when there are no coat racks or places for shoes in a tiny house. This couple has not only thought through so many "problems", but solved them in very creative ways. Such a livable house, I'd love to live in a tiny like theirs! Congrats!
The practical details are everything! ❤️
Their 'entry' is adorable, and so functional in such a compact space!
They said they have been living there for about a year and a half, so they have had a bit of time to work through any design details that rubbed up against their needs. What a wonderful place they built!
Thank you!
Love idea of Murphy bed. Excellent idea. Your home looks great. Having deck increases living space considerably
Hello lisa how are you doing!!
The coolest thing to me is the "bump-out" for the entryway! I haven't seen that yet...and I have watched a ton of tiny home videos. Such a practical use of space as it also defines the entryway. Great job!
Wow they did such an amazing job, very thoughtfully designed!
I absolutely love their simple style, which is very much my style. I could see myself living in this one. I love the murphy bed, the kick drawers in the kitchen, the drip pan/shelving system for drying dishes, the bathtub, the bathroom sink, their outdoor space, and the list goes on. I'd prefer a flushing toilet that's hooked up to sewer, since it looks like they're pretty well set in that spot, but I guess you can't win them all. Great job!
Very nice video. You are a great couple! There was alot of peace in your presentation. I enjoyed the background music choices too. Great job! God bless you!
Love the Murphy bed in a Tiny house. This looks like a nice home and they deserve to be proud of their work.
We had one and just folded it up when not needed. No problem.
Maybe just have a small bump out.
This is it. My dream tiny house. Was wondering about a murphy bed the other day and BAM, here you folks are. Affordable, beautiful, love it.
This tiny house is packed with smart features, ideas, solutions. And what a charming couple who work as an amazing team. Kudos!
I love your format. How you let the owners speak. We only hear the owners, there is no cutting people off mid sentence and such. It’s much more soothing that way. 😊💕
Thank you very much! ❤️☺️
Loved how they made the drying rack and making the counter not look cluttered and is able to be used while dishes were drying. Also, great idea for the stairs!
I've watched so many videos about tiny houses and this is the most beautiful, best designed one I've seen. It's the first one I can imagine living in, particularly because of the lovely wood everywhere, the tub!, the Murphy bed, and the awesome kitchen with a proper sink and stovetop. Every tiny house I see with those loft bedrooms I think, Nope. This is a little bit of heaven.
thank you!
I'm impressed by this couple! They're so calm, councious and seem to get along very well... Maybe that's why their house turned up so great!
Aw thanks!
So attractive and functional. It’s obvious how intentional you were in planning and building the spaces in your home. Congratulations on a beautiful home
Your Home is wonderful, I wish U2 the Best of Everything in your Tiny 💝🕊
I love this couple. The bed is genius. I can not believe this was $35,000! And that bathtub! What a treasure. Have a happy life!
Love your tiny home and all the great features you have put into place both inside and outside your home. You seem like a great couple and should be extremely proud of all you have accomplished in your build process. I also love all of the outside privacy you have. You seem likely a lovely couple and I wish you both a great future together. ❤❤❤
WOW! I couldn't have done better myself. Congrats on an extremely well built "Personal home". Nothing wrong with being a "tiny house" dweller...you're just ahead of the wave.
This is the most perfect tiny house I’ve yet seen. Stunning attention to detail. So cozy and homey. I too love the bathtub. And the Murphy bed is a brilliant idea!💕
Great Tiny Home, great video and great couple. Their story is fantastic. I love the Murphy Bed idea and I thought the same thing in my dream tiny house: Murphy bed with clothing storage on each side. The drying racks above the sink is another great idea.
My home would be smaller, shorter with a deck above. I would incorporate a desk and tv on the Murphy bed wall during the day.
Greetings from New Zealand. Have to tell you this is the best tiny house I've seen by far. Cant believe the storage and love the private outdoor area. You have built an absolutely amazing home.
Aren’t they the cutest! What a fantastic home, such genius thinking went into this design! Love the minimalist ideas with all the details to make living easy, i got all emotional, silly old me! ❤️❤️❤️
They did a great job with all the little extras personal touches. I love how he made the bed foot it looks great when the bed is up.
I really love that your site shows tiny homes that are affordable. Most homes are over $100k which doesn’t make as much sense to me if your going tiny. I’m saving these videos and will be reaching out to your company when I’m ready to build. I just hope Georgia comes around and starts to allow tiny homes.
Okay, this house is gorgeous, and I have seen a LOT of tiny house tours. Well done, you two! Love all the little extra features you built in!
This is by far the most best tiny i have seen.
Lot of space and still a snugg when the bed is down...looks light and everything is usable.
Nice job😊
Very nice. I love how you designed the nightstands on either side of the bed. Pretty cleaver.
Hello Linda how are you doing!!
Love this tiny home..even more meaningful that they built it together..so cosy and at an affordable cost
Hello Rosie how are you doing!!
Nice to see real people living in their tiny and not the usual Airbnb stuff
it s nice to see finally a tiny home that is cosy AND where people actually LIVE in. you know like their lives ;) a home without an extra spare lightbulb really isnt a home.. xxx
This is my fave tiny house! The design is so smart, elegant, efficient and clean!!! Their outdoor space is beautiful too. And, they did it all themselves which blows my mind. Such lovely and talented homeowners.
Haven't finished watching, but that sink is gorgeous!! I love that they incorporated friends' art in their space, it's so special😍
One of the most thought out homes I've seen. Love it all!
I love the Murphy bed. Best thing in the design.
I love the Murphy Bed and that deck is so nice! Very interesting outside and inside!
Hello Susan how are you doing!!
@Keanu Reeves Well hi there!
@Keanu Reeves Western MA
Absolutely the BEST tiny house I’ve ever seen!!!!
Many great ideas. I love the natural light with multiple windows, especially by the bathtub.Also the wood stove is great. I lived in the rainforest in Hawai’i and moisture was a major problem. Love the Murphy bed too! Good job you two.
I love the foot pedal at kitchen sink
Ab gorgeous it’s the finishing touches that make it so lovely ❤️❤️
wow... very nice... murphy bed really opens up for a lot of added space... tyfs
I've seen a lot of tiny homes that I have liked, but I think this design is the best! I absolutely love it!
very-well designed tiny house. So homey with all their functionality. Beautiful...
A nice long enjoyable video you have here. So much aesthetic, clever solutions. The price is about as good as it could get for doing your own labor. It's just so different. Thanks.
They should put that big pillow on the floor in front of the Murphy bed in front of the head board/closet doors so they can sit up in bed comfortably and maybe read a book, watch tv? Then build a storage bench in front of the Murphy bed where the cushion was on the floor not too high so u can still open the bed fully when u take the cushion off and use as a head board cushion. Then when the bed is up more seating for people while your cooking because u said u like to hang out with people in the kitchen. Does that sound good? Maybe even a foldable bench u can slide under the bed? Lovely house💜❤️💜❤️👍😊
“We didn’t prioritize having a big bathroom” had to laugh at that, I think this is one of the best, but also one of the largest, bathrooms I’ve seen in a tiny house!
Love the bathtub
That sink cutoff is a killer idea. Every RV could use one. On the same topic RV showerheads have a cutoff button so you can get wet, cut the water off while you soap up and then turn it back on for a quick rinse. All of them dribble a little but that’s useful too. I have one in my shower in my cabin.
