  • We're touring an ultra-tiny tiny house with a classic floorplan that manages to fit all the essentials onto a super-compact 16' trailer. This is The Thistle model and it was built by Summit Tiny Homes in Vernon, BC. It has a lot of charm with a gable roof and cedar shake siding, and a cozy farmhouse-style interior design.

    This tiny house has a storage bench and an electric fireplace, a combo washer-dryer, a galley kitchen, a beautiful bright bathroom, a storage staircase, and a loft with extra headroom and a railing.
    We loved getting to check out this tiny house and are glad we finally got to meet the Summit team and visit their workshop where all the magic happens.
    Thanks for watching!

    Thanks for showing this 16 foot tiny house. I personally am most attracted to tiny houses on the smaller side of the spectrum and would welcome more videos of tiny homes in the 12 to 16 foot range that somehow still manage to squeeze all the basic functions into such compact spaces.

    This tiny is as cute as a button! Small, yet airy, and it's not missing a thing!
    You're right, this is a nod to the original tiny house movement.
    This size is so practical as well, and the big added plus is the fact that it's easy to tow.
    I'd hook up this baby any day! A shout out to Summit Tiny Homes, you guy's did a phenomenal job on this here.
    It's a cute tiny little gem, I just loved it! Definitely saving this one as inspiration for a future mobile build because it's just the right size, a home away from home.
    This honestly made me realize that sometimes the basics are all you need: cooking, eating, a place to sleep, and to wash up in.
    This is my total kind of glamping, lol. What would be safer from the bears at Yosemite? Or more comfortable?!
    Well guy's I'm looking forward to whatever comes next, you guy's never fail to impress me, lol. Here's to to the tiny life 💝🏡🌺🌿🐱
    God Bless Xo ✌😘

    From Vernon and follow I follow the tiny house movement, thats where I came across this tiny home. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this tiny unit. It packs a punch and I've viewed thousands. If I could add two things they would be an extra window in the loft for cross ventilation, and.... this hasn't been done by ANY tiny home I've seen, turn part of the couch into a recycliner!! Tucks away when not in use and everyone loves them. But I love this. It's gorgeous and very well thought out

    I love it! I'd mount a tv above the stairs or something. Doesn't look like a ton of space for clothing, but maybe a small dresser could be placed between the foot of the bed and the railing.

  • @finbear

    This was gorgeous. I feel like there was some sacrifice of function for the sake of looks, though. Like in the kitchen, having books and a vase instead of like, a toaster or something. Makes for a nice picture but not realistic. Or saying the single shelf they chose in lieu of cabinets would be useful for "extra knickknacks." Er, you mean dishes or food? I'd also I'd have a two-burner cooktop in that kitchen nook, with shelves above. And I'd definitely need at least _some_ clothing storage (there's literally not even a single shelf or bin for that?).
    All that said, they did manage to fit a lot into a truly tiny space, and the aesthetic _is_ pretty. It's certainly inspiring.

  • @genkiferal7178
    @genkiferal7178 Před rokem

    This is in my top 5 favorites, I think. I'd put the door on the same wall as the seating, make the door all glass, so could sit there to look out. I'd put a second window in the loft opposite the 1st so I'd get better airflow and light. I'd make the mirror above the bathroom sink far larger and make the window in there larger, too - or add a tiny super-high window in the shower to let in light and let hot air moist out. Needs more clothes storage in there, but the area above the washer/dryer combo and the place where the loft's railing is could be used for that.
    Still loveeeee this unit.
    If only there was a space for a wood stove. But, if the area is so tiny, maybe there is no real cost savings.
    Oh, make the loft a one-angle slanted roof for solar and make the living room are flat to double as a deck.
    Not sure that last bit would work...
