Built by Nate and his friend Luis with Southpaw Trading Co., this space-efficient dwelling is a masterclass in small space living and minimalist design. Originally built for one, this home now comfortably accommodates two people and a dog, proving that living small doesn't mean sacrificing comfort or functionality. Tiny House Kitchen and Living Areas The heart of this home is a living room focused layout. Unlike many tiny house floor plans that prioritize storage over lounging, this design features a full-sized 8-foot couch that doubles as a guest bed. As a dietitian and avid gardener, the kitchen was a top priority. This tiny house kitchen includes: A full-range four-burner gas stove and oven. Breville coffee station with the Bambino espresso machine. Deep dish sink for easy cleanup. Custom live-edge wood shelving for dry goods. Pull-out pantry and intentional cabinet storage. Off-Grid Ready and Sustainable Features Living in the Pacific Northwest means preparing for winter storms. This home features a tiny wood-burning stove as a backup heat source when the power goes out. Sustainability is woven into the property through: Water catchment systems for gardening. A three-tier compost bin for soil health. A 12-bed organic garden growing everything from eggplant to corn. Shou Sugi Ban cedar garden beds using a traditional Japanese wood preservation technique. Bathroom, Laundry, and Loft Bedroom The first floor includes a bathroom with a combo washer-dryer, a flush toilet connected to septic, and a walk-in glass shower. Upstairs, the lofted bedroom fits a queen-sized mattress and features sixteen custom drawers for clothing storage. Smart home features like voice-activated Google Home Nest lighting make the loft feel modern and accessible. Homesteading in Washington Beyond the main structure, the property includes a multi-purpose shed used as a home office and gear storage for skis and bikes. The exterior aesthetic follows a sleek two-tone black and natural cedar theme, which extends to the custom chicken coop housing three chickens. Whether you are looking for tiny house inspiration, tips on downsizing, or ideas for modern homesteading, this tour shows how intentional design can create a fulfilling life with a smaller footprint.
