Phil Ross, with the help of the Local Lake County Seasoned Freelancers, designed and built this one-of-a-kind “functional art” tiny house on wheels that offers 360-degree views of the outside with the clever placement of windows all around the tiny home.
But what really makes this unique is there’s an electric bed lift and an elevator to the loft bedroom! While we’ve seen elevator beds before, I don’t think we’ve ever seen an elevator *to* a loft. Would that feature make you rethink a tiny house with a loft bedroom?

Electric Bed Lift & Elevator to the Loft!

There’s a barn-style metal roof to keep it weather-tight.

There’s also a ladder to the loft that lowers when needed.

The elevator bed has lots of head room even when all the way “up.”

From Phil:
A Functional Art New Self-Build (with helpers). It’s a culmination of dozens of years as a Full Time RVer.
What makes it clever is that from any point in the unit, there’s a 360-degree outside. And each area has three functions. No cabin fever in this model. PLUS, it has an electric rear deck. An electric lift bed. And an ELEVATOR plus stairs to the master bedroom loft. The entire exterior is fireproof.
It sits on an olive ranch in Clearlake Oaks, CA. It’s on wheels but ready for a foundation or floats. Like all spontaneous creativity, the inspiration came from a napkin drawing to celebrate my 80th birthday. It’s a Legacy Project. The square footage is 320. There’s radiant heat with a ceiling fan. And 13′ high windows over the breakfast nook and upper loft. Check it out. Questions honored.

Totally love the idea of an elevator to the loft! This is a great concept for those who don’t want to or can’t climb stairs. ♥️
How big is this home length and interior width? What would something like this cost?
They don’t provide the interior dimensions but the exterior is 28′ Length and 8′ 6″ in width. Typically, the interior dimensions are around 9″ or 10″ less than the exterior dimensions.
Pricing isn’t given and may vary depending on a number of factors, like when it’s ordered, etc. but it last sold on Tiny House Listings for $116,000… It was called the Quantum House on that listing if you want to look it up…
