You are looking at Charles Miller and his 1929 Model T Ford that he built his very own mortgage-free tiny cottage on. If you notice it even has a patch of grass on the side that constantly needed a good mowing! More info here.

I’m just so impressed with this teardrop trailer tiny home because it has so many useful features packed into a small and aerodynamic package which makes it great for those of us who want to use our build for traveling. For me I’ve always wanted to adventure with a tiny house on wheels but I soon realized that it’s sort of impractical because they’re heavy and huge compared to travel trailers. But here’s a solution that works and you can still get that homemade wood/cabin feel that’s so attractive with tiny stick built homes on trailers.
See more pics, learn more, and see how it was built over at the builder/owners blog.

If you’re like me you love tiny houses but you might also realize how little outdoor space they usually come with (if any at all).
In most cases it’s just enough to keep you covered in the rain while you unlock your front door.
And again, if you’re like me, you want more outdoor space than this!
And it is nice to have that space easily accessible from your front door.
That’s why I love what this guy did with his 192 sq. ft. tiny home once he parked it on his land…
He built a separate stick built covered front porch since he doesn’t really plan on moving the house anyway.
This is the same tiny house project with the DIY hidden TV cabinet I showed you a few days ago.
Great idea! And the solar panels are nice, too! More info on this post too. Be sure to browse around his blog for more (it’s really interesting!)

To me small houses like this are perfect for families.
I just know that modern designs like these are not very affordable but at least once built they are efficient, easy to maintain and have a relatively small footprint in comparison to McMansions.
And what if they were built for the masses? Wouldn’t they become more and more affordable then? I think so.
My wish is that developers would provide more housing like this because the truth is it’s just easier to get an oversized house (they’re everywhere). AND they’re cheaper.
It’s a shame that in most of today’s communities and neighborhoods you wouldn’t even be able to build out a floor plan like this because it’s less than 1200 sq. ft.
I consider 667 sq. ft. designs like this one to be McMansion killers because if they were widely available and easy to finance lots of people would actually choose them over 2400 sq. ft. cookie cutter homes.

This couple purchased the travel trailer so that they could completely re-do it. It was pretty banged up as you could see (especially the inside). But just shows what you could do with something that already exists. Just takes time, patience, a little bit of money, and lots of labor.
They completely gutted it and rebuilt it from scratch and I think they did an amazing job. They even rented a garage just so they can do this. Read the complete and original story with even more photos here. It was later put up for sale as you can see here.

If the interior of this tiny cube house is confusing, don’t worry, I was pretty baffled by it myself until I read the description. It has three floors, so when you first walk in you have to take the stairs to the first floor. That’s where you have the living room with TV and the […]
