Welcome to the charming world of tiny house living!
Meet Bill and Carin, a warm and adventurous couple who have embraced the tiny house lifestyle, nestled in the serene and picturesque mountains.
Their journey is an inspiring tale of sustainability, creativity, and the joy of living simply.
Let’s take a cozy tour of their thoughtfully designed home, where every detail shows their love for nature and clever use of space.
Bill and Carin’s tiny house, a marvel of modern design and eco-friendly living, measures just 10×40 feet but is packed with personality and practical features.
The house runs predominantly off-grid, powered by 12 efficient solar panels. Bill, with his knack for DIY projects, fortified the house’s perimeter with sturdy railroad ties secured by 5-foot rebar, ensuring it stands resilient against the elements.
The exterior is a blend of rustic charm and natural beauty, featuring a decorative fountain and a fire pit area crafted from locally sourced rocks, perfectly harmonizing the home with its mountain surroundings.
The lush landscaping around their tiny abode includes Japanese maples and bamboo, adding splashes of green and a touch of tranquility.
Bill and Carin have grand plans to extend their outdoor living space.
Apparently, a 12×22-foot screened-in kitchen and deck with a perfect spot for meals, entertaining guests, and soaking in the stunning views.
Stepping inside, the house greets you with a practical mudroom/utility room, ideal for storing outdoor gear.
Adjacent to this is the guest room, affectionately known as the “man cave,” complete with a large TV and cozy seating.
The main floor also features a cleverly designed bathroom with a hidden cat litter box and dedicated storage for pet supplies, catering to every family member’s needs.
The great room is proof of its thoughtful design, showcasing unique architectural features like inlays and arches that add character and charm.
Originally planned as the master bedroom, the den now serves as an additional living space with a spacious walk-in closet that doubles as a storage area and exercise room, exemplifying their smart use of limited space.
Heating the home efficiently is a breeze with their biofuel fireplace.
It’s an eco-friendly solution that can burn for 5-6 hours, covering up to 90% of their heating needs during winter.
Bill’s practical approach to sustainability is evident in this choice, aligning perfectly with their off-grid lifestyle.
Upstairs, Carin’s office offers a serene workspace with a scenic view, making working from home a delight.
Next to the office is the master bedroom, a cozy retreat that comfortably fits a king-sized bed and essentials, ensuring a functional yet intimate space.
The tiny house also includes a second bathroom, fully equipped with all the necessary amenities.
It also serves as Carin’s personal sanctuary for relaxation and grooming.
The thoughtful design and efficient use of space make this tiny house both practical and comfortable for daily living.
Carin shares their journey to tiny house living, motivated by her remote work and a desire for a simpler life.
They chose this particular home due to a special offer from the builder, Randy, which included a lot with the down payment.
Their deep satisfaction with the custom design and construction of their tiny house is evident, as they express gratitude for the opportunity to live simply and sustainably in their beautiful mountain setting.
