I don’t think I’ll ever get tired of featuring round homes here on Tiny House Talk. There’s just something about them that feels both cozy and a little magical. This one is a 30-foot-diameter round cabin tucked into the woods, and while it’s technically more “small” than tiny, it looks pretty compact next to the larger round home nearby.
Inside, the space has been recently renovated and thoughtfully upgraded with comfort in mind—from radiant floor heating to low- or no-VOC finishes and organic cotton bed linens. The main circular living area includes a welcoming living room, dining nook, a surprisingly spacious kitchen, and a beautiful bathroom with a tiled shower and rainfall shower head. A small rectangular bedroom addition branches off the main circle, creating a private and restful sleeping space.
Step outside and you’re just a short walk from private lake access, with plenty of peaceful outdoor areas around the property to relax, explore, and enjoy the natural surroundings.

Amie and Tom took the whole idea of “use what you’ve got” and turned it into an art form. Tucked away in a quiet patch of Welsh forest, they built this off-grid tiny home almost entirely out of reclaimed and rescued materials — and it’s the same land where they run their forest school for kids. Solar power, rainwater catchment, composting toilet… they really went all-in on making a home that’s gentle on the land yet full of character, warmth, and a little bit of magic.
Let’s step inside and take a look around.

There’s something about a small cabin on the coast of Maine that just speaks to me. The Pine Cabin is a 420-square-foot retreat nestled on a former saltwater farm in Sedgwick, Maine, and it’s one of the most thoughtfully designed small cabins I’ve come across.
Architects Bill Bowick and David Bouffard discovered this waterfront property and knew it deserved something special. Working with builder Jon Ellsworth of Carding Brook Farm, they designed and constructed three boat-inspired cabins on the land. The Pine is the smallest of the three, and honestly, it might be my favorite. It’s a studio-style layout with everything you need and nothing you don’t.
What really sets this cabin apart is that it was built using pine milled right on the property. That kind of connection between the structure and the land it sits on is rare, and you can feel it the moment you step inside.
