This 144 Sq. Ft. Toy Box Tiny House is a guest post by Frank Henderson – share yours!
This tiny house is a custom design. Using reclaimed materials and high quality fixtures, the motto of this build was “Downsize and Upgrade”.
There is a spacious sleeping loft (7’x8′) and all of the windows are new and operable. The double patio door offers tons of natural light, and the loft windows create a nice breeze using stack effect.
The house is not set up to go off grid, but can be hooked up to a solar powered system. We have installed a solar vent to keep constant air flow throughout the house.
The base of the house is surrounded by a planting trough in which flowers or succulents can be planted.
There is no toilet, because it was our thought process that a buyer might want something other than what we would provide. The house is plumbed in case you would want to add a water operating toilet (RV flushing toilet).
The trailer is a Tumbleweed, designed specifically for building tiny houses. It has working brakes and lights. Please enjoy, learn more and re-share below. Thank you!
