This tiny home has a lot to offer. It is a welcoming home, both inside and outside, that has been built on a lot of beautiful Alaskan wilderness. I love the addition to the porch. It shows how small spaces can be made larger.

There is even a corner nook perfect for a dining table. These 8′ tall windows let in tons of natural light, and make it perfect for your morning cup of coffee.

Often in tiny houses, you find the kitchen is underwhelming or lacking. This home has almost everything you would want, in a tiny place, with a modern look.

blue cabinets below a white countertop have that popular modern farmhouse look that matches the gray walls and exposed beam ceilings perfectly. The stainless steel accents on the sink and refrigerator are perfect to match this look.

While there is no oven, there is a 4-burner cooktop and room to use a countertop convection oven if desired.

You can also see the laundry closets in the image below. This is a great space to rent, but it can also serve as inspiration for tiny home builders.

The bedroom is located at the back of the house. This is a great bonus space as it’s not often you can find a main-floor bedroom in a small house. It has a wall and door but the other side doesn’t reach the ceiling. I love the open feel. It has a certain openness to it.

This tiny bathroom is located off the bedroom. It is very cozy and has everything you require.

The pedestal sink takes up less space that other cabinet styles. The toilet on the side wall is not in the way, but it is still convenient.

Although the bathroom has no cabinets or storage, there are two floating shelves above it to store towels. You can also see a simple above-the-toilet cabinet here if you wish.

The shower is my personal favorite part of the bathroom. It has beautiful custom tile accents and walls, as well as a unique porthole window. It’s a great addition to the space!
