Here’s the gorgeous City Model from S’Mouse Tiny House Co. The all-new build is for sale in Houston, Texas for $74,500. It looks like a modern take on a classic Shepherd’s Hut, with the studio-style layout, curved roof, and modest 18-foot length. But the moody interior and contemporary fixtures make this an innovative design.
The house features a floor-level lounging area, with portable mats for a couch and a large television. Cork covers the walls and ceilings, and the rest of the features are painted a sleek gray-black color. There’s a loft bedroom (with plenty of headroom) built over the 3/4 bathroom. What’s your favorite feature of this design?

Details:
The City model was designed and built with city utilities in mind. This tiny house works best in a location where water, electricity, and sewer are all readily available. However, the City Model can also be used on a generator and with a portable water and sewer tank solution. Due to its incredibly efficient design, the entire tiny house, with the exception of the Stiebel-Eltron electric on-demand water heater, can be powered via a single 120v 15amp household plug. This also means the tiny house can easily be converted to solar to run all the electrical, again with the exception of the electric on-demand water heater.

Love the efficiency, the look, and the cork ceiling in loft for less painful head bumping. Would not want cork backsplash in kitchen as it would get wet and messy with cooking. Easily fixed.
Really nice smallerTHOW, great for Air B&B but without clothing storage not great for daily living.
Fabulous shape, love the shingles, love the cork, love the induction cooktop…it’s great! Well, except for the fact that there is no closet/storage areas and the floor mats are not so good for people who deal with being less flexible than we used to be. 😉 Add some length to this THOW to provide enough space for a full sized couch, more storage and a downstairs bedroom and it would be very close to perfect. I know that would mean more expense but if it isn’t livable, I wouldn’t pay anything for it…even as wonderful as it is.
