Good things come in small packages, or so the English expression goes. One custom-built tiny home located in Port Orford, Oregon, has proven the saying to be true.
On the r/TinyHouses subreddit, someone shared pictures of a post found on Tiny House Listings that shows an 8.5-by-24-foot trailer home that comes with a stunning interior finish and features an imaginative use of space. The original poster also noted the home is just 13.8 feet tall.
From the outside, it looks like a shrunken version of a shotgun house, with a wood-cladding exterior and a cute bay window.
Inside, there's a kitchen with a breakfast bar, a living space with a rocking chair, a gorgeous bathroom, and a lofted bed. The interior design calls to mind a country cottage, but it's achieved in a fraction of the usual dimensions.
This tiny house is also on wheels, meaning you could take it on a road trip. But that's not the only benefit of this dinky dwelling.
With less space to illuminate and heat, you can save money on energy bills wherever you are plugged in. In fact, as the post details, it comes with LEDs, a technology that is among the most energy-efficient ways to light up a room.
Get cost-effective air conditioning in less than an hour without expensive electrical work The Merino Mono is a heating and cooling system designed for the rooms traditional HVAC can't reach. The streamlined design eliminates clunky outdoor units, installs in under an hour, and plugs into a standard 120V outlet — no expensive electrical upgrades required. And while a traditional “mini-split” system can get pricey fast, the Merino Mono comes with a flat-rate price — with hardware and professional installation included. |
What's more, it also has a water-saving toilet, according to the Reddit post, helping to conserve this precious resource for a more planet-friendly lifestyle.
As of Dec. 16, the property was still up on Tiny House Listings for a sale price of $79,000, which is significantly cheaper than most available properties — and you wouldn't sacrifice much in the way of comfort, either.
One Redditor was certainly jealous and inspired by the pint-size property, commenting, "That is actually beautiful."
