Left Coast’s Tantalus: A 26-Foot Tiny House With Stairs to the Loft

Exploring Alternatives walks Noah’s Tantalus — 26 feet long and 10 feet wide, about 300 square feet including the loft. Stairs take you to the loft. The floor drops, so there is no ladder.

Video: Stunning Modern Tiny House with Smart Functional Interior Design! FULL TOUR. Channel: Exploring Alternatives. Uploaded June 6, 2026. 11 minutes 31 seconds. Builder: Left Coast. This is a variation of his Tantalus model, with custom, site-specific windows.

The tiny house features a living room with massive windows, a kitchen dining counter with two stools, and an extra drawer bank.

It features a bathroom with a large vanity, a tiled shower, a flush toilet, and space for a washer and dryer. Left Coast’s Tantalus page, as of August 29, 2026, prints the model from $135,000–$180,000+ CAD. That CAD band is the model range, not a price for this custom unit. This 26-by-10 sits in the 10-foot size band on that page (10’×24’–30’ and 8’6”×24’–30’).

The living end holds the sofa and the dining stools. The kitchen stays in the same run.

The loft holds a queen bed, a built-in closet and dresser, and a seasonal storage cabinet. Stairs get you there — a drop loft floor, not a ladder.
