I’m not sure that we’ve ever seen a Baluchon build with no loft at all, but this new design has all the incredible craftsmanship of a “standard” Baluchon, with the benefit of a multipurpose living room/bedroom that easily transitions from day to night with the use of a comfortable sofa bed. No stairs!
The rest of the home is split between a galley kitchen with a movable table, and a roomy bathroom space. The two-burner cook top is separate from the oven that’s across the kitchen, which allows the chef to look out the window while sauteing onions. In the 3/4 bathroom, you’ll find a single-piece shower stall and a composting toilet. What do you think of this tiny home?

Highlights:
- This is a single-level home designed as a full-time residence for a couple.
- They wanted a first floor sleeping area, so the living room becomes the bedroom at night.
- A floor-to-ceiling black out curtain closes the bedroom off from the rest of the home when people are sleeping.
- The kitchen has a large sink with a built-in drying rack, and there’s also an oven and a separate two-burner cook top.
- In the bathroom, you’ll find a regular-sized shower stall as well as a composting toilet set-up. There are two linen closets to maximize storage.
- Cotton, linen and hemp insulation keeps the home cozy and warm!
- The house is almost 23 feet long, and the couple plans to add a deck to the front of the home once they get it settled.

Wow! I love this Tiny! Great kitchen and roomy living/bedroom area, too! I would make a couple of major changes to suit my own personal preferences…doesn’t mean that others wouldn’t accept it as is because it is fabulous. I would want a regular flush toilet. Man, I hate those toilets in an enclosed box! And I’d opt for an induction cooktop. Cleaner, safer, especially in such a small space, and the temperature adjusts just as well as gas. I know it makes the Tiny less independent but for me personally, that’s not an issue as I would always be where there was water and electricity. Bottom line is this is a fabulous Tiny and I could see myself living in it, even as is. Kudos to the design team.
I mostly agree with Donna because I don’t like crampy lofts and climbing chairs. Sofa beds are nowadays as comfortable as beds
and easy to handle. Many of these have storage for the bed utensils, too. On my wish list would be a full size fridge and freezer combo and a small dishwasher even if it reduce the counter space a bit. The movable multipurpose table is great.
Open shelves aren’t good when you plan to move often and doing that solar panels, batteries and water tanks underneath the floor would be necessary and easy to achieve with a flatbed trailer which gives good ground clearance.
I couldn’t find measures and weight of this THOW.
I would like to see this in a 24′ with center bath…Doing an End -of-Life unit for Seniors Mono slope to be as thrifty as possible and not just a Holiday Caravan…AmeriKKKOCH no longer can allow poor to own Land so everything will have to be on wheels…
I do love the design of the house but it’s just too fancy. Why do you people have to have all the fancy expensive stuff instead of more just functional less costly?
Mainly because it’s custom built and that’s the kind of product this builder specializes in. However, it’s actually not that fancy or intended to be expensive, aside from being custom built, tailored to the customer’s needs, and with nice looking details but it’s otherwise actually pretty minimal.
This is in France, and the European windows, sliding doors, etc. are standard there. The 3/4 bathroom has no sink and only a basic hand made composting toilet. The kitchen only has a basic mini-fridge, just a simple gas 2 burner cooktop, and small oven. Structure and built in’s uses much less material than the equivalent typical THOW in the states, it’s mainly just very good craftmanship… They’re basically just really good at making minimal look fancy and more expensive but most of the cost is just labor and not the stuff…
Besides, keep in mind, custom built means it’s what the customer specifically requested… as minimal as they may want to go, they can’t go lower than what the customer requests from them…
