Stunning Scandinavian-Style in Off-Grid Tasmanian Tiny Home
Vložit

- This weeks episode takes us to the spectacular wilderness of Tasmania where we visit a stunning, Scandinavian-style, off-the-grid tiny home on wheels. Here, Anna has built her dream home. Originally from Sweden, her tiny home is filled with beautiful elements of Scandinavian design which help to make the home feel snug and cosy. The single level design is open and makes the tiny footprint of the home feel expansive and the style works perfectly set amongst the wild backdrop of the Tasmanian forest.
Completely off-the-grid, the roofline of the home is dominated with solar panels. Batteries and a back-up generator ensure she always has enough power, even in the depths of the Tasmanian winter, where the light of the day drops below the towering tree-line. Ample water storage, collected from the roof is carefully monitored during the dry months and a wood-stove insures the home is always warm.
For Anna, this isn't just a home, it's an adventure. Here, she has been learning to live off-the-grid, connect with nature and the elements and branch out into growing fruit and vegetables on her tiny homestead. Beyond that, the home has helped to provide her with financial freedom and security for her up-coming retirement.
We hope you enjoy the full tour of this lovely tiny home.

Anna's home is absolutely charming. Stylish, simple and surrounded by nature. Who could ask for more? We hope you enjoy this episode! Thank-you for watching and supporting our channel. RIP to our drone in the ending shot of this video! 😂
My condolences to your drone 😢😉
❤❤❤
Loved this place and Anna is a sweetheart!
🤭 Poor drone! Hilarious you left that in.
Perfect excuse to get a drone upgrade. Also, this is the best practical tiny house you’ve toured. Great work Bryce and Rasa!
You know what? Growing old and being alone as an independent woman is given such a bad rap these days, but doesn't lovely Anna make it all seem desirable and achievable? I love her attitude and outlook on life and that comes through strongly in her tiny home design, such practical simplicity with abundant flair! Thank you for sharing your brilliant space with us Anna and thank you always Bryce and Rasa for documenting her inspirational story! Arohanui 💛💚❤
Ahhh thank you so much! 🙏😊
@@AnnaOffGridIt's good to finally see a double sink in a tiny home! 🤗
@@AnnaOffGrid Hi Anna, you became my inspiration! I would like to chat more with you as I want to get my own tiny in Tassie if any chance.
Please let me know how to get in contact.
Do you have any Facebook group with tiny house owner in the area ?
@@tanial694so is everybody else everywhere including you, what r u talking about 🙄
@@rc6888I’m guessing tanial694 is a very sad human, who likes to criticize everyone else. It must be hard for her to see someone live such a fulfilling life 😉
Oh Bryce (and Rasa), how many years has this channel been around, how many times have you uttered certain phrases and then composed the perfect closing words summing everything up? I think I speak for your entire fanbase when I say that this channel - in a time when the internet is clogged with tiny home videos - remains unique because you have stayed true to a (seemingly) simple format and above all: even after seeing hundreds of homes and working on the subsequent films, you've lost nothing of your enthusiasm and authenticity. Every word is heartfelt and sincere, and that reaches us every time. Thank you so much for continuing your work and keeping this channel alive!
So true!
I was going to pen a comment but tbh, Bryce's summing up at the end, always nails it. So yes, I completely agree with you. I've been subbed for years and the vids never jade; each one is so fresh and delightful. I gave up with a top 10 long ago.... I mean it is meant to be just 10!!!
I know…! The sincerity, enthusiasm, respect for all of the tiny house lifestyle is really inspiring and frankly, humbling. Thank you so much for increasing the total amount of joy in the world.
❤Absolutely 💯% seconded ❤
Perfectly said!
WOW small world! This kind lady picked me up while hitchhiking my way around Tasmania in November, and told me allll about her tiny house! So cool to get to meet her again in this way haha. Back in Ireland now and still dreaming of Tassie
Wow small world indeed!!!! Let me know when you’re heading back to Tassie!! 💗
@@AnnaOffGrid Small world indeed, this video was recommended at random to me and I wasn't going to watch, but something looked familiar - I live on the other side of the pass from you and have always wondered who lived in your little house.
@@Alex-ty5jl👋hi! Come by for a cuppa!
That’s amazing! Nice
So much serendipity here.💞
What a lucky gal in today's world! This layout would be perfect for me too and I don't favor steps of any kind. She did a fabulous job designing this to fit her needs and wants. I'm thrilled for her!
Ohh thank you!!🙏
This is the first tiny home that, despite only being 8ft wide, has a lounge area that looks amazing! Many of the others have a couch of some kind with a TV opposite - often with a TV console. Not only does the area look so small in those others, but the idea of making the TV the (often, big) focus is so claustrophobic.
I love this home!
@@helenaquin1797thank you!!! I do love my lounge/sofa area!! Actually stretched out on it right now (with Peggy 🐶, of course!!)
I feel like I can breathe better, deeper and slower just by seeing her home and the land on which she lives. Like a long sigh. Kind of jealous. Just a little.
That’s pretty much exactly how I felt when settled in to my tiny - like a big weight had been lifted almost!
I love being older woman and living on my own with my pets. I am never lonely because I have wonderful friends and my son that I also keep close contact with. One of my friends is planning to buy a Tiny house and move onto her sons land and I feel as I do my research and after discussions with my son that I am going for a Tiny home too. 😊
One of my favorite designs. I like the single-level layout. And I know this probably sounds a little crazy, but finally, someone who makes tea in a teapot! LOL Thanks for sharing Anna.
There’s no other way to make tea than in a pot!! 😁
@AnnaOffGrid ,I love uour home, when the veg garden start blossoming ,you will love you space more
And it looked like chrysanthemum tea too.. nice!!
One of the few tiny homes i could live in (no loft, great kitchen, open feel). It's just lovely.
I love this one particularly because the host is clearly "not a spring chicken" anymore. I'm 40 and my mom is 69, recently retired. For years and years she's obsessed with work and I've been trying to tell her to balance things a bit and that there's more to life. She's starting to relax and realizing she doesn't need to be up and about soldier style every time, but I wish for a greater period in her life videos like these could be around and showing her the possibilities. Cheers, Bryce!
What a perfect layout for a single person! The bedroom area is especially lovely.
So cozy yet light. That's the Scandi way. I love the self sufficiency of the off grid and garden as well. Perfectly done.
As a Norwegian it doesn’t scream Scandinavian to me🤷🏾♀️ Can’t stand when they label something Scandinavian yet it’s not Scandi at all.
💯
@@kilipaki87oritahiti I'm a Brit living in DK and so I understand your "cri de coeur", but for people who don't really know Scandinavia, this does have the scandi "touch".
Totally agree with you. It has a scandi touch but I wouldnt call this interior scandinavian. I am swedish so I see a lot of scandi interior. Of course it has some elements
@@kilipaki87oritahiti as a Norwegian, I see and feel the light of the house has Scandinavian quality that's particular to northern European design. It's clear and magical. Bryce never mentioned the light, but he seemed to feel it.
Anna has done an beautiful job with her home, inside & out. This truly is one of my favorites & I have been watching for years. The bed looked so comfy plus the views out those windows, perfection! The towel holder in the bathroom was so clever & space saving. I wish Anna much peace & happiness there.🤗
Thank you!! 🙏
Its a lovely, comforting home. Her yard and the location she has her home on is so peaceful. Who wouldn't want that?
It's inspiring to see a lot of older folk making the move to tiny house living.
Best decision ever! Why sit in a large house weighted down with lots of stuff? I haven’t looked back!! 🙏
@@AnnaOffGrid Good on you - well done.
What a lovely home. It's practical, beautiful, cozy, light, and absolutely perfect for the person whose home it is.
I like that she didn’t have an upper level/loft. And to have a queen size bed, heavenly. Scandinavian decor is so beautiful in the home with the wood to warm the space. You can tell she put a lot of thought into what she wanted her tiny home to look like.
Love this tiny house. One of the nicest I have seen. Anna has beautiful style
I completely agree with you.
Ohhh thank you!! 😊🙏
I'm 76 & I would love a home like this. I wouldn't change a thing. ❤
This has to be one of my favorite tiny homes. I love the cozy bed as well as the swiveling table. Lovely build
The presence of Lord Ganesha's idols and other deities' artwork all around the house, spreads such positivity and light!
I could totally see myself living in this beautifully designed tiny home with that gorgeous piece of land.
Wow this is gorgeous! I'm in my 40s with two young children, but I'm filing this away for when they've left home as a perfect home layout ❤
I love the concept of no stairs and no loft. Its just simple layout yet so beautiful😊 Amazing house, amazing parking spot and a cute little puppy🤩 she has it all🫶🏻
Thank you! Stairs + wonky knees (and age!) = a recipe for disaster 😂. I love my single level living!
@@AnnaOffGrid Bless you and sweet little Peggy🫶🏻 Love from Germany💚
I love those tiny homes ,they yard space to create a lovely veg garden and away ftom neighbors ,in your senior years we just want peace and happiness ,no drama and trama with noisy people
Couldn’t agree more!! 😊
This is the first tiny home I have ever fallen in love with! I love everything about it.
Ohhh thank you! I love it too!! 🙏
Anna, it seems that you haven’t sacrificed anything to live in this beautifully designed & organized home. Love it. I’m so happy for you💐🥳🇨🇦
Thank you! Definitely no sacrifices, on the contrary I’ve gained so much 😊
Anna this is the nicest tiny home design I’ve seen for one person. Good on you!
Ohhh thank you!!! 🙏
For me personally, this is one of the best tiny homes I have seen, particularly for the older person. This really is the future IMHO. I am very happy with what I have (ground floor apartment, old but small building, quiet street, beautiful garden, 5 minutes on foot from the sea, train station and town centre) but I see the potential of the tiny home movement. A home, a lifestyle and a way of navigating the world. Excellent. Thank you so much for showing the world this new way of thinking and living. Can't resist a joke: the drone stopped droning on. Sorry.
Sounds like you’re in a lovely place! 💗
@@AnnaOffGrid Thank you. I even have a wood burning stove. And yes, I am happy to "face the final curtain" where I am currently living, but next life (If...) tiny homes will have progressed even further and I can't think of a better solution. I really love and enjoy watching this "show" (?). So many possibilities that didn't exist when I was younger plus an opening up of traditional mindsets.
Your home & location sound lovely. I’m happy for you. And I love your joke😄
Kudos to Anna for a really great design. There's nothing about her home that feels cramped, especially considering that she has kept to one level. Her living / dining area is masterful - actually the entire design is masterful. Really impressive.
And Kudos to Anna for cutting down trees! NOT! Disgraceful! She should be fined.
Beautiful one level home.
This was so nice, it's lovely to hear someone with a Swedish accent and background on this channel. The tiny house is great inspiration with a few modular features and Anna seems to have the same mindset as me, being able to live comfortable alone but also able to host people, one reason to have a bigger tiny than typically needed for one person
Tack/Thank you! 🙏
I always think that despite how beautiful a tiny home is, it's the location that it is parked in that really makes it so special and this is just a stunning plot to be in, I love it.
The location definitely contributes to the beauty of a tiny home, I agree with you.
Beautiful home---very calming design.
Such a lovely tiny home, no convertible furniture, all functional and still spacious. I love the lounge/dining space, no need for separate living and dining space.
Tasmania is so gorgeous. I love her parking spot! Lovely home too 💖
Great to see something from Tasmania! We have planning approval for a small cabin to be built near our main house; we are in northeastern Tasmania 😊
A glorious blend of paired back aesthetics, thoughtful storage and personal touches. A real home of functionality and beauty, with a gorgeous owner to boot ❤❤❤
Nicely put
@@pdq5465 aww, thank you 🤗
I love the cross over with boating ideas - the smaller fireplace, storage and table.
Amazing woman , she's done well and seems happy .
That home is fabulous. Loved it.
Anna has definitely achieved a sense of hygge with her beautiful interior space. There's a Scandinavian concept known as Swedish death cleaning, which is a process of elimination, downsizing and getting rid of your worldly belongings so that you can live more simply into your old age. It's the greatest gift you can give to your loved ones after you pass on.
I have Swedish ancestry. Maybe that’s influenced the way I live, having downsized & gotten rid of anything not necessary. Plus, I’m single & don’t want to leave lots for my niece to deal with when the time comes. 👍🏻🇨🇦
Adorable little dog.❤
🐶Peggy says thank you!
This is a fav!! Loving her choices of no loft bedroom, all full appliances... and the serene aesthetic!
Lovely home, lovely lady.
This one is the best tiny house I have seeen so far!!!
Anna has a such a positive attitude and I love everything she has, her property is spectacular away from the crowds living off grid such a peaceful place for her and the wee dog . The interior is so nice and bright , love the wood burner and where it sits wood floor and ceiling are lovely. And that kitchen love it ! nice use with the stainless it looks crisp and clean. Beautiful tiny Anna, I am 66 I think my dog and I would love a place like this.
Thank you!! 🙏
I am indian and when u enter from the door on top off her sofa are books right there's one statue on top of them is actually one of our gods Ganapati babpa or Ganesh ji it has various names
There is one near the stairs also
@@testcitsl1468 yes he is god for us we have many gods and 1 god has various names
Beautiful home. Excellent situation. Thanks for posting ❤
What a charming home. I love all the Indian artwork-hello Ganesh! I really enjoy seeing the one story homes. I sleepwalk and have joint issues so any home with a loft might not be best for me if I’m ever able to get into a tiny home. I also love how she managed to keep a good selection of books. All in all, she was funny and seems lovely. Bryce is such a genuine interviewer and always makes such thoughtful comments. Thanks for sharing your beautiful home, Anne!
Thank you!! I had to do a tough cull on my book collection but kept the best ones! And I have a great little library not that far away! 📚
Wow i could see Lord Ganesha idol 🎉
As someone who spent her life mostly alone in different places due to studies from childhood &as an INDIAN. am in awe with this house , she is so lovely & never seen these arts in this channel in other houses so yeah , it's really awarding ❤
The word envy comes to mind. Anna has done what I have been trying to do for years. Bravo🎉
What a cute compact chunky dog ❤
Peggy 🐶says thanks (but she wasn’t thrilled about the ‘chunky’ part 😆)!
What a lovely home for a lovely lady! Thanks for sharing.
One of the best tiny houses i've seen on your channel ! 👍❤❤❤❤
Thank you for these videos, dreaming of having my own one day. They do represent all you said. ❤
Normally I am not a fan of single level tiny homes due to space constraints, cramped interiors and small kitchens but wow, I think I am converted after seeing Anna's tiny home, it's functional, spacious, and everything just fits, the kitchen is functional, the bathroom has ample space and the bedroom really is one of the most comfortable looking I have seen in a while, the off grid system looks like a quality setup especially with a quality Victron inverter, the PV panel closest to the wood heater flue will probably get dirty quickly but easy enough to clean given the lower roof height. I have not seen this brand of heater as yet, amazing little design and really suits the Scandinavian styling. I will be moving off grid in Tassie very soon, I would love to pop in some time in the future and see you're lovely tiny home Anna, certainly one of this years most inspirational. Best of luck with the development of the yard will be great to get more home produce happening.
everything about this tiny house design is perfection
In the simple life is the beauty of beauties ! This one express this idea for me ... Thanks Bryce and Rasa for this video !
Such a beautiful place, beautiful and cozy Tiny house... and such a lovely lady 😍❤️. Thank you for sharing.
This is the most practical and pleasant tiny home I've seen. Could live there if I was single. What a beautiful space.
Her doggy is so sweet. Good for her this is a Haven I aspire to. Cheers from Seattle! Thanks Bryce for todays hope!!!
🐶Peggy says thanks!!!
This design was perfect for her needs and environment. Well planned out and cheap considering
I love this home, she has it designed just right, beautiful lot to be living on.
Perfect lay out for a single person.
An absolutely beautiful tiny home! I love all of the timber features combined with the stainless steel, the woodstove and sheepskin throw for added coziness, and the lovely watercolor of her dog. A gorgeous woodland setting and garden completes the picture. Thank you for sharing. Jenny USA
Nice that you have been highlighting older people recently.
I would lie on that bed and never get up. So cozy. The whole house is ❤
What a lovely home Anna has built! I love the color scheme, the bed on the main level, the relaxed feel of the whole place, etc. Well-done!!! Thanks for sharing, Bryse and Rasa. I always look forward to Fridays and the release of your weekly videos!
Happy Easter-Days Rasa&Brice and everybody here in the community 😃☀️
Loved the evening shots, so amazing sitting on the deck with the fire burning.
Wonderful home in a fabulous setting. Love all of it.
This is by far the best tiny home I have seen on your channel in all of the years I have watched. It shines shines in it's beauty and ease of use ☺.
In building a tiny home be true to yourself and make it fit your style regardless. If its a loft style or single level always think long term. This is a beautiful layout with pops of natural colors and crafts. Thank You Bryce
A new adventure for a better life. I love this tiny house and the design.
Lord Ganesha ❤ from india 🇮🇳🙏🏻
Love the design and with no stairs, I am sold...
You know what Brice I found your show in 2020 and it is one of the best out there! It’s calming delightful I get to see other parts of the world that maybe I wouldn’t have through your eyes and the buyers the home builders eyes. Thank you upstate New York, Mystic, Mimi 😇🥰
Anna's tiny home is stunning and roomier inside than it appears from the outside...I love the downstairs bedroom and the layout of the kitchen because it has full sized appliances AND a decent sized pantry...thank you for the tour Bryce and Rasa xo 💜
I looove my pantry! Always dreamt of a pull out one for easy access!
@AnnaOffGrid your kitchen is bigger than mine and I live in a 3 bedroom unit lol
I absolutely love the home and life that Anna has created for herself and her pup. It looks like sheer heaven. I’ve saved this for my future planning. Best wishes on many happy years in your bit of paradise!
Thanks Kelly! 🙏
What a beautiful tiny home. It seems absolutely perfect for her. Thank you for sharing this video with us. 👍🇨🇦😊
Easily one of my most fav designs. The simplicity yet size of the “working places” is perfectly balanced. The land site is…well…a place anyone might find a joy. Well done.
I saw the short story just yesterday and was happy to see the full video here. The build, the land, all around beautiful, and beyond.
❤🏡
Such a lovely cosy place. All that Indian art on the walls and the Ganeshas makes me feel quite at home as an Indian 🙏🏻
Anna, your home is gorgeous 😍....everything on one floor perfect
Beautiful home
Часто думаю о своей старости, и честно говоря, восхищаюсь Анной и ее смелостью и самодостаточностью, и и желаю много лет счастливой жизни в этом прекрасном месте!
What a lovely home. That ceiling is beautiful! It's so nice the way everything was designed around her wishlist.
This home is so pretty& serene.I love the art work & decor.The whole area is so pretty eith the big trees& countryside. Enjoy your home.🤗☮👍🌺🌷💞
Beautifully done. I'm going to watch this one again.
What a perfect little scandi Gem! She built EXACTLY what she needed and loved and it turned out brilliantly! Lots of great design ideas to note down like the bench seat couch and rotating table top. Love her bed too! Her obvious happiness and contentment is so inspiring to see. The land she’s found to rent is just ideal; she is so blessed.
Ahh thank you!! 🙏
Very very inspirational!! Such a beautiful and comfortable home within a beautiful setting.
Anna it is a gorgeous home. Well done!
Ahh thank you!! 🙏
I love to see all this beautiful and charming little houses...Thank you Bryce again and again for the videos.
A very cozy space on the inside. Lovely house. and i like the scandinavian vibes in the interior.
Wonderful little home. And lovely rural setting.
So stylish and in such a beautiful setting! Amazing! Congratulations for such an inspiring endeavour, Anna. 💗🌳🌸
Lovely lady''s
