Susan is a former dialysis social worker who was tired of working but couldn’t retire without selling her home. So she hired Movable Roots to build a custom tiny house, downsized, and moved to a Florida tiny house community. It’s been two years, and she hasn’t looked back.

She loves her home, with a small deck off the front for relaxing, a comfortable couch where she hangs out with her dog and a custom staircase that allows her to stand in her loft bedroom. Let us know in the comments which feature of her home was your favorite!

These house plans look perfect for a retirement cottage, a small family home, or a vacation property. At just 640 square feet, this is just above tiny yet still well within “small house” limits. The clever layout could easily sleep six people between the two twin bunk lofts and the two first-floor bedrooms.

One of the bedrooms is shown as an office but has the exact dimensions of the primary bedroom. There’s a single full bathroom and a second utility room the same size. Turn that into a powder room with a washer/dryer unit. The center of the home has an open-concept living/dining/kitchen space that looks out over a lovely porch. What do you think of this design?

The Urban Park Max is one of Tru Form Tiny’s most popular models, and for a good reason — offering a private, spacious first-floor bedroom is especially attractive, and the high-end finishes throughout the home only make it more enticing!

Even though there’s a bedroom on the first floor, you also get the benefit of a loft with staircase access, which is great for kids, storage, or maybe an office space. Like in most homes, the kitchen and living space are open-concept, which helps keep the tiny house from feeling claustrophobic. What do you like most about this spacious, tiny home?

The Urban Park Studio is a new style of tiny house by Tru Form Tiny. Based on the Urban Park Max, this compact version of this modern-style tiny home is perfect for a single person (or maybe a couple) who wants to simplify their life.

While it has a less convenient loft bedroom, that space allows for a roomy first floor featuring a couch with a chaise, an electric fireplace, and a kitchen with a dishwasher! The bathroom is small, but the walk-in tile shower looks luxurious.

Lucy lives in a small cottage on the edge of Tasmanian woodlands that she and her father brought back to life after nearly 30 years of disrepair. The shed-like structure had been Lucy’s first home, which her parents built as a temporary dwelling place while constructing their forever home.

She added three extra spaces during the build, which allows for a gorgeous first-floor bedroom that is well-lit by large, low windows and overlooks the magnificent countryside. But the part of the home that was original, Lucy has tried to keep as true to the past as possible, beautifully remembering her roots and appreciating those early years of her life!

Tru Form Tiny recently completed a custom 28′ Urban Payette for a customer, and the results are stunning, as always. This unique home has flat dark green metal siding with cedar accents around the door. The flip-down deck matches and provides outdoor living space wherever the house is parked.

Light wood tones and white shiplap inside the house make the kitchen area look bright and cheerful. A moody book nook sits beneath the small loft, inviting you to curl up with a novel. A storage staircase leads to the main loft bedroom, where the partition wall doubles as a bookcase. What do you like most about this design?

Rich might sell massive luxury homes for his work, but he has no interest in all that square footage and those high mortgages and taxes! Instead, he keeps things simple in a tiny house he purchased in the Lakefront Tiny House community in Orlando, Florida.

His home has two lofts, both with staircase access. Beneath one of them is his cozy kitchen space, and his living room looks right out the French doors and onto the Lake. Enjoy the tour below!
