The Vesta 32 from California Tiny House in Fresno is a 10-foot-wide, 32-foot-long tiny house with 320 square feet of living space, all on one level. The builder designed it around the features its custom clients asked for most: low-maintenance materials, the maximum allowable height, two entrances, and a flexible layout that works as an ADU, a guest suite, or a standalone home.
There is no sleeping loft and no ladder. Everything, from the kitchen to the bathroom, sits on the same floor, so the house lives and furnishes much like a small apartment.
Two Entrances and Windows Placed for Privacy
The dark exterior has white vinyl windows and standing-seam steel on the end walls. Two entry points, a glass door in the middle section and a sliding glass door at the far end, let you decide how the house faces the lot. It can sit in a corner, face a garden, or turn away from neighbors. The second door matters on small properties because you are not forced to orient the whole house around a single entrance.
The house is built on a deck-over trailer and weighs about 15,000 pounds. At 10 feet wide it is wider than the 8.5 feet generally allowed on US roads without special permits, so moving it usually means an oversize-load permit. A mini-split heat pump handles heating and cooling, and the walls are insulated with mineral wool, which resists fire and moisture and helps dampen sound.
A Galley Kitchen That Opens to the Living Room
Painted birch covers the walls and ceiling, with LVP flooring underfoot. The galley kitchen has grey cabinets with black hardware and an acacia butcher-block counter. One side holds a deep stainless sink under the windows, and the other has a two-burner induction cooktop, a microwave, and an apartment-size fridge. A galley keeps everything within a step or two, which is why it is the layout of choice in tight spaces.
A high acacia bar on a black metal frame separates the kitchen from the living room, giving you a spot to eat or work without a separate dining table. Past it, the living room has a ceiling fan and a sliding glass door that brings in light and opens to the outdoors.
Bathroom and Bedroom End
Off the kitchen, the bathroom has a shower insert, a vanity, and a standard residential toilet, so there is no composting toilet to manage. Hot water comes from an electric tank water heater, and water and waste can connect to either residential or RV hookups, which makes it easier to place on a lot with or without a full utility setup.
The official plan shows the living area at one end, the galley in the middle, then the bathroom, and a room at the hitch end. That end room could serve as a bedroom or flexible space, but the model page does not label it, so ask the builder how it is meant to be used.

The excessive amount of advertising obscuring the tiny house photos is getting to be ridiculous. Some can be x-ed out but others remain making it difficult to see the whole picture. Stop already!!!!!!
I agree, I am deleting more of their emails because I can’t see anything but advertisements 90% of the time. It never used to be this difficult.
Redesigned the website entirely over the last couple of weeks, still working out some kinks, and hoping that the content-to-ad ratio provides a better experience than before. I appreciate you coming back and taking the time to leave your thoughts. Will keep making improvements to find the right balance for the site. The ads help us run everything for free, but I understand they can be too much, so still working that part out. Thanks everyone for your support.
I never liked cramped lofts and the space waisting stairs. They aren´t suitable for the FL climate because physics let hot air always going upwards.
Beside that more overall height for them is needed to get to the bed and crawl over your sleeping partner.
Downstairs skeeping is the way to go.
A good compromise for smaller THOWs is a lift up to the ceiling bed. This can be huge and avoids to make the bed using a sleeping sofa at the beginning and the end of the night.
