Amazing Modern Single Level Tiny House Gives Couple Ultimate Freedom
This amazing single level modern tiny house has given this couple their dream home! From it’s striking all-black exterior, to the beautiful and cleverly designed interior, this home is nothing short of spectacular. This is an episode you won’t want to miss!
Russel and Leah spent three years designing this tiny house before turning it into a reality and you can truly see how all the design planning has helped to create a truly special and ultimately functional home which meets and exceeds all of the couples needs. Being a single level design home there are no stairs or ladders to climb and the home has been wonderfully crafted to be open, light and spacious.
Russel works as a police detective, and Leah a social worker specialising in at-risk youth. Both of these individuals have high value and high stress jobs and deserve a sanctuary to return home to at the end of the day and this house is just that. Beautifully designed and filled with clever features, this is a modern home which is sure to impress!
Best of all, downsizing into this incredible tiny house has enabled the couple to find a tremendous amount of freedom and has given them more time and resources to do things which are important to them, such as spending more time on holiday and with family.
We hope you enjoy the full tour of this incredible tiny house on wheels.

We absolutely love this tiny house! So much thought and planning has gone into making this home something very special. We hope you enjoy the video tour! With love, Bryce & Rasa
Love the surrounding decking…. Bigger than the house 😂😂 Brilliant video as usual my lovelies, take care Bryce & Rasa, keep safe & lots of love to you both xxx
I like this tiny house a lot! Thanks for the video.
Small but spacious house! The choice materials is great with elegant combination of metal and timber.
Thank you Bryce & Rasa…..Russell & I really enjoyed the day with you both …..even through the giggles and having the patience to take us through the journey…….we were nervous but you made us feel comfortable to share this with u. Thank you for the opportunity…..very much appreciated 🥰
I'm a huge fan of the copper accents. It'll have the awesome green/brown patina as it ages. Just fantastic!
Being a Senior, I adore the one floor living, and its huge. Not like a tiny home at all. I could live there in a heartbeat.
At 72, the thought of having to climb a ladder is terrifying! This design is for the long haul!
I think it seems huge because of the massive porch extending it.
I am not a senior. Yet, I am totally up for a single floor living. Don't mind a goose neck though. But crouching in a loft is not my thing.
@@malvikabaru totally agree
@@malvikabaru I've always thought I'd be claustrophobic in the sort of lofts we see and it requires that your knees always work. A simple accident could put not just getting up to one but moving about one out of reach. Having had one of those accidents at age 38 that would have made this impossible for two years and then 15 years later breaking a kneecap, which would have made it impossible for another 5, I think about these things.
Wow, this lady should design tiny homes for a living.
@foopyu nooui ...and COOK! 👍
So many people say "Bryce, it started with you." That says so much about the positive effect that Bryce and Rasa have had on people. And it's nice to see middle-aged people enjoying a tiny home.
Shout out to that husband. He looks like he is still marveling in the gloriousness of his wife's conceptual living. The wood and the green tile against the black is gorgeous. They both seem to have found a level of harmony most people search their whole lives for. I want that lady as an ally. Strong, confident, knows what she wants and knows how to achieve it. Obviously she loves her husband too but she is one lucky woman, let's just say.
Amen❣️ We need more loving, hard working,confident, a man that listens and is considerate towards her/mindful of her....I want me one of those, she is so blessed to have a great husband 🥰😍😻❣️
What a beautiful comment 👌👍💕
She is strong and confident BUT! Even if he did disagree, he wouldn’t be able to get a word in. However, some men are quite happy to let the wife do all the talking and run the show. She is one lucky woman in that her husband is man enough to let her get on with it.
Agreed. And Russ reminded me of my later father.
I think one of the best attributes of this house is the deck surrounding the house; it really integrates the outdoors with the indoors in a way that other homes aspire to but don't achieve as well as this one does.
no way that deck is portable though
@@SystemBot They’ll figure it out. Just bc they didn’t address it doesn’t mean they don’t know or have ideas about what they’d do. Many can lift & hinge up during a transport. I’m no expert, just sayin’ it’s not impossible even if they need to remove temporarily & reassemble.
@@marirose19 And some plan to just break them down and reassembly.
@@marirose19 that's like saying houses are transportable just because they can be taken apart and reassembled/rebuilt in another location.
Just commenting regarding decking .. there are many deck systems you can install where they can be totally transportable .. such as your main posts screw into the ground and can be easily removed, composite decking that is easily installed and easily removed. Ideal solutions for tiny houses 👍
I very rarely comment but this house is wonderful. Just the way I would like a tiny house. I wish Leah and Russell many many happy years in their house. It's a dream come true. Well done.
Hello Sue how are you doing?
Hello how are you doing ?Am Franklin and it my pleasure to meet you , you seem to be a nice person and I love what I read in your profile , You seem to be a woman with great values and I would love to further communication with you , Will be hoping to read from you soon Franklin
Exactly. This home is perfect
Comment more often
Exactly what I would like too!
The covered deck should make everyone realize that tiny home living really can work. This is the best deck/tiny house combo I've seen after years of watching such videos.
Agree, this tiny home is in my top five. What seems to be common is that people take their time to research, and conceptualize how they want to live their lives.
Unless you live in northern Canada 😂
I didn't want this video to end. Single level, one bedroom, spacious living & kitchen, combined bath/laundry AND large deck. What's not to love?
Exactly!!!
I like that the bathroom is located at the other end of the home, especially away from the kitchen; also that the laundry is located in the bathroom, and the comode is a ways away in the bathroom further from all the other spaces in the house. Very good planning! 💯💯👌👍👍👏
“I can’t wait to see the interior. Can we check it out?“ I am waiting for the day when someone says “No, it’s really messy and we’d rather not have anybody in right now.“ 😂
That's funny.
Those moments will go into the blooper reel Bryce is doubtless compiling. : D
LOL 😂
Living 'Whatever'🤷♀️🤷♂️in a Tiny House. Tiny homes of the world weary and downtrodden. Today Sharlene & Dwayne share their asbestos fibrolite ex Bach, some few miles West of Henderson. ' Yeah. Seen better days. Yep, chairs from the pawn shop next to the Warehouse. Only one is broken.' We had a possum living in the potbelly chimney, so mind the smell. Wanna Beer? Sorry, only got that cheap stuff from Oz. The gas heater doesn't leak much and the roof usually holds the water in. Except when the wind blows in from the East. When ya leaving Bryce? We got a housie meeting to go to. Yeah, finish drinking the xxxx. Mind the Rottie & Pittie at the tinnie house down the right of way " " As we leave the absolutely individual, compact, unique tiny abode of Sharlene & Dwayne, we breathe in the fragrant smoky incense of their landlord neighbours, the West Akld chapter of the ... ( insert gang name here) who themselves are living big in a tinnie house"
This comment made me laugh..real hahaha..i also wait if somebody could reply that way too..🤣🤣🤣🤣
Russell cooks, grills, & irons. I want the tiny house and my own Russell!
Lol, I was thinking the same.
@@cherylbarnard5621 Hell, I'll take a guy who does none of those things, just loves me and will make me giggle. I'm 67 so I think my bar is getting lower, lol!

AND...he gives his wife breakfast in bed, EVERY saturday and sunday..!! I'll guess I will say, just like Meg Ryan in 'When Harry met Sally': "I want what she's having"!! 😂❤🎯
And he farms!
If I was ever going to design a tiny home this would be what I’d want. From the color scheme to it being a one level, this home is beautiful & unique.
I love how Bryce notices all the details, colors and elements and appreciates them so much. We get to experience it through his eyes and Rasa’ s lens. Everything is wonderfully captured in such a personal way and this is part of why Living Big is set apart from other videos..💕
That's exactly right. Bryce you're such a lovely encouraging man, you get the best out of the people you interview.
I love the green tile and huge deck. I'm only 45 and I don't want to climb a ladder or go up stairs to get to bed. Future proofing shouldn't wait until you're old. It should happen when you build no matter your age. Always have somewhere to sleep on the ground floor.
I totally agree I happen to be 70 in pretty good shape until I broke my foot a few weeks ago and walking on anything but walking around the house is hard enough if I had to go upstairs every time I wanted to go to my bedroom I would be in a heap of trouble I have fibromyalgia on top of that and it's very difficult for me to climb because it affects the muscles and makes them very weak and so when I like go up a larger step than what we was thinking is normal I can't hardly lift myself up to that it's the upper thighs I have no strength so can you imagine that and then breaking your foot you need to have some place downstairs if you're going to have a two story where a situation like mine could easily be taken care of I can't climb the stairs very easily two or three is okay but a broken foot how would I climb up and down a ladder for pizza and you never know when accidents are going to happen and this was such a weird one it was so weird anyway but it happened and I got three bones broken enough you know big boot on my leg so I have to have some place downstairs I would be using the couch if there wasn't a bedroom
I'm in my 30s but had a bad foot injury from slipping on wet tile a few years ago and literally couldn't get through my house for months because of steps and odd doorways. Most people do not consider accessibility enough when choosing where to live. I always think about that injury when I see all the low lofts and ladders in tiny homes... It's one small slip from being unusable.
@@ktdid627 too true and it can happen to anyone in a split second....I slipped on 2 steps in the rain and for 18 months affter I could hardly move and getting into bed was a challenge let alone going up a ladder or steep steps. It was 2 years before I was back to normal.
Can't imagine being pregnant with a ever growing belly climbing up a ladder to a loft I can't even stand straight in.
Agreed
It's a gorgeous house. I'm always partial to a tiny house that has the black siding. Nice spacious living room and kitchen. Sidebar: I want Russell to fix a snack tray like that for me!! Good grief that looked yummy!!
I just want a Russell. Lol. He's a police officer, a farmer, a cook, a domestic god...does he have a brother? :P
@@dcmc7383 haha I think there will be a few with the same idea
Same. Looked so delicious.
Hello 👋 Debra. Happy Sunday
"Even though we're at the other end of our lives, we really feel like it's just starting" what a beautiful sentiment, to still have excitement for this beautiful gift of life.
After all the videos I've seen on this channel, and I've watched them all, THIS tiny house is my favorite of favorites. Finally, someone designs a beautiful, one-level home, and in my favorite color - black! Love the wrap-around deck and all the windows and doors. In my younger years, I've lived in studio apartments ... and I definitely would be more than comfortable in this home. Thank you Leah and Russell for inviting us into your home.
Out of all the homes you have showcased, this one ‘s color scheme is by far my favorite. It’s absolutely gorgeous! Those green tiles are stunning. What a nice couple I hope they have many happy years in their tiny🥰
The design/Colour are so incredible which can have my soulmate leaving in one of this
Yeah, she really made great color choices
I think Leah missed her calling, that house is stunning. I always thought a black kitchen would be oppressive as well but it is cosy and the green tiles, my goodness!
Yeah, I think it's because it's so open and blended with the rest of the rather large space, otherwise it would definitely feel claustrophobic IMO. But as it stands it just creates a subtle yet palpable sense of distinguishing the zones from each other, without being overbearing. Love it!
Hello 👋 how are you doing today?
My daughter-in-law had a black kitchen I helped her paint it and she loved purple so the insides were purple and on the top cabinet she left the doors off and then of course the dishes matched or coordinated and she did a great job she used purple and then sunflowers and so it looked beautiful in there I was actually impressed because I've always liked black also but I had never seen a black kitchen until hers that was 20 years ago and the only thing that she did wrong was she got semi-gloss paint rather than matte paint so I would definitely do the ladder I don't want any shiny unless it's white and not even there I want I don't even want that I live with my brother in his house and they have white cabinets that they put in I'd say 30 years ago and as far as the cabinets themselves they've held up extremely well they're beautiful they're still very lovely other than the countertop his kitchen is still very much in but the white paint is not completely flat or a matte paint what do you want to call it but it's certainly not what I would consider shiny and it still looks really good so white black not too much shiny on paint needs to be muted
A black kitchen is easy to make work well. Just accent it well and the balance can be wonderful. Ditto just a black room. The window size/placement helps too.
Yeah she has a natural talent for interior design
It's amazing how you've been on this channel for so long that you're encountering people that you've DIRECTLY influenced to go this route, that's so cool, keep up the great work!!
Truly there is no equal to this channel in the tiny house category! Bryce is kind and genuine, and Rasa is masterful behind the camera. What a joy to behold. This house and this couple are amazing! I love so many things about both.
Guys let’s not talk bad about this lovely couple, Bryce is there to showcase the design and layouts of tiny homes, so naturally the person who designed the home itself is going to be the one mostly speaking on how and why things were done the way it was, in this case the wife designed this home. She’s proud of her project so let’s just focus on the home and not talk bad about the wife as they seem to be a nice couple .
Absolutely agree with you on that one... play nice everyone, and just enjoy the content for what it is 😊
I listened and she said “We”, just as much as “I”. Fabulous home!!!
Completely agree! I guess New Zealanders are used to intelligent & capable women (current prime minister, governor-general, leader of the opposition, chief justice of the supreme court) and so it probably never occurred to Bryce that some of his audience would find it unusual and/or threatening...
@@davidhaywood8029 agree completely… some people in this world are not threatened by an assertive woman. Clearly her husband is not. Lovely couple, spectacular home design.
It has always sort of amazed and amused me at the same time that people seem to feel their called to make judgemental remarks about folks they know nothing about! Not sure just where that comes from but it makes me want to close down! It isn't a gift I would want to share...it is dark, mood changing, hurtful and harmful. Please respect others! The same qualities we may find intimidating in others may be just the right thing that makes them amazing at their job...only their mate may know that for true. Do not assume you are the self-designated truth detector in charge of audience education! Taking someone's inventory based on a pocketful of assumptions is as unbidden as it is unwelcome and says more abt the person doing the remarking than the subject thereof! I apologize for my curtness but it was drawn from necessity!
I loved it when Bryce reminded her about her husband's needs 😂
Me too. Russell seems like the quiet, nurturing type. But a man needs a good mirror to shave!!! Haha Bryce 😂♥
🤣🤣🤣 lol - I kept hearing “I, I, I…” from her lol
She is too tough to tolerate. I feel sad for the guy living with her
@@afiasheikh416 She's probably very nice really, and maybe he's just not very good at taking the lead so she's had to do it.
hahaha me too. She did most of the speaking and her idea and her idea... which is fine.. and he was shown cooking and ironing. hahahahaha which is fine also.... but the mirror thing I laughed out loud. hahahaha
She has great design language! Especially around how she coordinated the colours of the living and kitchen area. I love how the kitchen counters though black, are full height but still doesn’t feel overwhelming, because of how the shallow cupboard depth, for the top, balanced with the spatial from the windows and the lightness of the green backsplash. ❤️
Hell hath no fury on a woman who plans something for three years. All of the details, every single life movement planned out up to a roll out ironing board with a beautiful handle. Really enjoyed this one and oh the land! It's absolutely stunning with all of the hills and farm life. Then there's the cherry ontop, which is them creating a happy space to retreat to after working in the police force and with the youth. Just lovely.
Bryce is so genuine and friendly. He has a lovely way with people. Lovely couple
Yes I have a big fan of Bryce from Pakistan
Hello 👋 how are you doing today..?
What a house , so beautiful, guess you’re having a beautiful day out there
Hello Patricia how are you doing!!
This is probably my favourite house so far. Design wise, it’s factored in everything.
Totally!!!
@@missruth26 mine too! Stunning!
Mines too this one and the one where a lovely grounded gardener own on her family roots
Mine too ❤
Yes for me too that is a big crush 💛
I want a husband like that. He puts on a beautiful tray of food. Beautiful home. Wish you many years of happiness there.
One of the best tiny home thought-out and executed designs I’ve seen. Well done!
An incinerator toilet,yes!!!!!! Finally someone is using one,they are so under rated,kudos to them.Very cool digs.
That's what I want. I think it's worth it for less overall mess/ maintenance.
The incinerator toilet gave me a spark of hope! I've always wanted a tiny home but can't work out what to do with the poop.
I found out about the incinerator toilets not long ago and I was so happy to see it in such a modern design. Just a really beautiful design.
That black kitchen, actually makes the space seem bigger, because it sort of disappear. Black and copper works beautifully together.. 😍
Hello how are you doing ?Am Franklin and it my pleasure to meet you , you seem to be a nice person and I love what I read in your profile , You seem to be a woman with great values and I would love to further communication with you , Will be hoping to read from you soon Franklin
@@franklinwiesbrook8541 Well thank you for those kind words.. I am not very good at keeping up with videos on my own profile. Mostly because it's just for fun. 😊
Hi Anne, I had no idea that so many men would use a tiny home site to try and pick up a woman......I just want to give you a heads up that this guy has tried to get several of the women to respond. I guess they all want to be your “Russell”?
@@territroublled7585 Ooh no worries. People have met like this before you know..😊 There's no harm in trying, I guess.. 😉
I like how Russell's just confused about everything 😂 Like really, black is your thing, it never occurred to me.. Did we build this place? That's amazing Leah 😁😁
Russell just wants to go outside and do a mean BBQ 😂
I can definitely see who wears the pants in that relationship. *Insert whip noise here*
His face when she is describing the kitchen looks like he hates it, and he is the one who cooks.
He can barely get a word in
Iknowww is like he just noticed all the datails lol lovely couple and house 💜🤭
Wow! Just stunning!! All that outdoor space, the huge bedroom and bathroom, the farm setting ... I love it all! Well done to this couple.
What a great house, everything is so smartly designed, I think the bathroom is an especially clever use of space and function. I really like the way she designed two cooking areas for her husbands love of cooking, and how she spent 3 years planning, and working on it together once he agreed to make the lifestyle change. He seems so proud of her! It's really beautiful. I can see the slightly bigger trailor size gives that much more spaciousness in the rooms to make one level living really comfortable and doable. Great story to share with us, thank you guys!
The lady really did a great job with this house. It is the first tiny house on wheels that do not look like one. And i find the placement of the windows very smart. The house is not full of them, but because they are strategically placed, give the inside enough light and wall space to feel cosy without wasting storage space. An intricate balance that made all the difference
I'm disabled and those lofts have stopped me from building a tiny house. This design is fabulous! Thank you!
It’s beautiful. Hope you’re having a great day over there and also staying safe
They can create a design that would meet your needs, no lofts.
When I make the tiny leap, I will most definitely be referencing this episode 😍🥰
This is a fantastic tiny house design for us older ones who don't want a loft, and are staying in one place. Thanks so much to the couple for their clever design, and to you Bryce and Rasa, for your fantastic series.
This is totally next level. The house is amazing. I love that the bedroom isn’t a loft. The kitchen blew me away. It’s fantastic. The deck is amazing. The location is paradise. I would never want to leave.
Really LOVE this tiny house. Leah is such a person after my own mind! Big yes on the couch, big yes on the future proof one-floor layout, big yes on the kitchen layout and the bathroom one. Gorgeous home. Enjoy your home ❤️
Amazing!!! I really really LOVE the black kitchen with the green backsplash and wood. Plus ALL the black accents throughout the house. Awesome!
Breakfast in bed every weekend? Russ you absolute sweetheart 😍
Hello how are you doing ?Am Franklin and it my pleasure to meet you , you seem to be a nice person and I love what I read in your profile , You seem to be a woman with great values and I would love to further communication with you , Will be hoping to read from you soon Franklin
The wraparound deck of this tiny home really sets it apart from the pack. It's such a great way to add to the overall real estate of the place. Great design!
Having children who want to spend more time with you is a GIFT!
I am an interior designer as well as an artist and all my life I have loved black. But I keep being told black is not a color; black is out! However, seeing this video is a clear example that they are wrong and YOU ARE RIGHT ABOUT BLACK ( and so am I). I think you’re tiny home LOL is stunning from every aspect. I love the way you have taken the metal framing and extended the size of your tiny home out to the parameters almost twice the size of the building itself, to the corners of your deck. Not only does it give a feel of Vastness, but architecturally it is so pleasing to the eye with all the lines geometrically drawing you in so many areas of interest but especially with the copper accents complementing the black on the exterior!!! Even within the copper there are geometric lines creating a visual interest and how much of that is random versus planned I don’t know but overall, one of the most pleasing-to-the-eye tiny homes I’ve ever seen, & I’m just getting started on the exterior❣️❣️ by the way, I love that beautiful wooden table, chairs and bench out on the front deck❣️❣️ The rich colors in the wood complement the copper pipes and light fixtures, of course but it is a massive size it’s self which is ironic culture your tiny house yet, it says there holding its own as if it was always meant to be there!!! SO BEAUTIFUL, - WAY BEYOND FUNCTION ❣️❣️ You did an excellent job planting the interior portion of your tiny house it is beautiful, that is so obvious❣️❣️ as an interior designer you met all the Themes Perfectly, so that there is such a harmony wherever you Look… The painting you’ve had for years is not only a beautiful painting that such a great Designer dream play starting off point for the rest of your home…. But I also love how smart you guys were in measuring the items that you needed to bring to the Tiny House So that your Cabinets Not only met Everyone of those measurements, but provided you with kitchen cabinets that were so smart and stunning so that the rest of your life was going to be lived in comfort… I especially liked the pull out turnaround toaster cabinet yes it was exactly the size of your toaster… Who has that?!?!I could go over each and every detail of your home I think the thing I love the most was the view outside your bedroom window and the tranquility that you brought into the bedroom it was from a design standpoint, PERFECTION❣️ You have a piece of Heaven & you have chosen the right values to live out away from the madness the world and I couldn’t be happier for you❣️❣️ WELL-DONE♥️♥️🌈❣️❣️
Best layout I’ve seen in awhile. I’m 75 and don’t want a loft.
I'm 22 and I also don't want a loft haha
LOL - totally agree with you - every time I see tiny house owners on their knees I wince... my cartilage is long gone and kneeling without serious padding is not fun. 😩😩

Your profile looks beautiful
Having seen how useless a second floor could be when my late Mom couldn't climb stairs anymore, I love how this design take that into consideration. The deck is lovely and inviting to spend more time outdoors. To paraphrase Bill Bryson, we usually use houses and cars to shelter us from the outdoors. The wisdom of tiny house living is in providing a balance betwen our time indoors and outdoors. It's also a test for relationships since living so close to people who don't resonate with us quickly becomes apparent unlike in big houses where people hide in their own spaces.
This is sooo beautiful! What a stylish elderly couple! She has such great sense of design and style. She's so put together and planned it so well. I could live here and not feel like changing anything. Look at the overlapping roof creating a veranda on 3 sides....that huge barbecue/outdoor kitchen....that backdoor through the bedroom is so romantic! She's such a good homemaker....both of them really. I only wished they had more room for the TV. It's too close when you sit at the dinning. But I think this is my best of all of Bryce's tiny houses. I'm in love with it🥰😍😘. Thanks Bryce!
Wow! Russell prepared a nice party platter. Very well done 👏
I am in love with the out door deck looks so cozy.
My beautiful friends. Always beating the norms in style.
I love the fact that this house has the sleeping room on the same level as the bathroom! One floor plans are the only thing practical on the long term. ((NO to stairs, or worse yet, ladders, in those middle-of-the-night bladder runs! Also still livable should one break a leg or an ankle.) Interior was well designed, too. Great layout and colors. While the exterior industrial shipping container aesthetic doesn't appeal, I like the way the deck was incorporated. Such a roomy home for one-level living in a tiny house! It would be do-able if one ever needs a walker, too.
This is the kind of tiny house you get, when you've thought long and hard about how to put it together. I'm getting an incinerator toilet as well, I'm 63, not ancient but old enough to know, I'm not interested in dealing with a composting toilet. Really wonderful tiny house, it's going in my save folder.
My impression is that these two know themselves well. It was in the many details of their home design, and their conversation. Fabulous.
Yeah.. it’s beautiful, hope you’re having a great day out there
This tiny house is beautiful. I love the single level aspect of it. Im young but don't like the idea of climbing ladders everyday. And the sliding door that goes outside from the bedroom was a fabulous idea.
It’s beautiful. Hope you’re having a great day over there
Holy….she surly is pedantic! Sole- control about everything! Queen of the house! Husband does ALL, cooking/farming/cleaning and even ironing!😵💫😵💫😵💫 Nice design, Thanks for sharing!
This tiny house is perfect!!!!!
The COOLEST kitchen, a great bathroom layout, and wowowowow that charcuterie board! Loved this one
😍❤️OMG what a beautiful spot. The view is magnificent😍The house looked so well built🏡❤️😊. This is also the channel that got me obsessed with Tiny House. I can't wait to have my own TinyHome🏡 BTW kudos to husband for building the house so well. It's so nice😍
I’m a rather quiet subscriber but this house is exquisite. I really love every single thing about it, especially all the black! I’d love this home, I’ve got to have one. ❤️❤️ And wow, what a nice husband❣️
Wow, such a creative way to do a tiny house! It's just like a small apartment in paradise.
I totally agree
Wow she has it made in the shade, he irons, cooks and brings breakfast in bed. Need me one lol.
Don’t forget he’s also a detective/first responder by day and a farmer on the weekend. This man lives nothing but a life of service to others…
@@LadyKysar0214 Now that's a catch
This house is gorgeous. Love the floor plan. The huge deck makes this place so livable.
A woman after my own heart! Black & white, extra drawers for clothes, LOVE the deck and dining table! Also love the deck covering! Beautiful little home . Amazing looking kitchen. Never would have thought to do a black kitchen but it is stunning! Thank you for sharing your home! What a treat!
Thanks, Bryce! Thanks, Rasa! Thanks, Leah! Thanks, Russell! 🏡

One level Full kitchen Functionality 👌
There are a lot of beautiful views in NZ, including theirs! This may be ridiculously inane, but I was amazed at that ironing board!
And he was doing the ironing lol! Guess which one is the "domestic" in that dynamic?
@@pinky2245 Neither my husband nor I iron much. Only something we’re about to put on if absolutely necessary! My idea of ironing is yanking the clothes from the dryer while it’s still tumbling, hanging them up to dry, the wrinkle spray, or the dry cleaners who will press only. 🤣 I do a good job of washing, though! I was just fascinated by how small the space was that their board popped out of! My hubby is definitely the dominant personality, and I’m just gregarious and empathetic. Everyone has to work out their own dynamic.
@@meredithc2755 I agree! I do my ironing the same way you do.

It’s beautiful. Hope you’re having a cool day
Hands down the most dramatic, beautiful ,well designed,incredible views tiny house I have ever seen.I LOVED it! I wish that I had seen this before I designed my tiny home.I want to paint all of my white walls black now.
You know its exceptional when they aren't any dislikes. FANTASTIC!!
Masterpiece, this tiny house blows my mind, wow. Thank you for sharing.
That pull out ironing board has to be the coolest household gadget I've ever seen.
What a beautiful home! Thanks so much for sharing. ❤️😎
This is a classy tiny house and done in beautiful black. How stunning.. I love how she wanted a real couch. All the comforts of home. This house rocks! ❤️
Hello 👋 how are you..?
I love these two. Ur a team and ur home is beautiful. I have a 12x40 tiny home I recently moved into and I am still waiting on the arrival of my amazing partner . My life is so peaceful and simple. I placed it on my property in which my grandfather had a farm on when I was a little girl. Its a whole new world from living in the city. I save so much money and I am able to travel the world.
Did this man have a chance? Black, green, and copper.
I don’t think he hates it?
"Even though we are at the other end of our life, we feel like it´s just starting". I just love that!
Prettiest tiny home I've seen, a real functional home. Wow
Excellent.......congratulations Russ and Leah. Can imagine those late summer evenings around the barbie.....!!
Bryce, You are such a Primo host that you could interview some youngsters showing their stick fort and so many of us viewers would be completely enamored by their fort, that we would want to buy the blueprints for it or ask about renting it as a B&B. Lol Not to mention Rasa's fantastic camera work as well as the expert help of Ethan on the editing. Russel and Leah's home looked spacious, having enough room for family to be together. After all was said and done, it really did match up with their Dreams. What more could anyone want?
This is an OMG HOUSE! I love every single little bit of its aesthetics. Hats off!!! Thank you for sharing. I want to wish both a long life to enjoy this beautiful home! 🙏 PS: thank you Rasa and Bryce for the professional presentation of this mini-documentary.
I usually don't comment on most videos but I had to on this tiny home. It is absolutely gorgeous. I would love one identical to this. It's just so nice. I love that kitchen and the deck all around makes it perfect for cooking out. Love, love, love the outdoor table and bench. Whomever built it did an amazing job to detail. I hope they have many years of enjoyment living there.
Beautiful! Loving the black with the copper and I love those green tiles in the kitchen, the lights along the top make them really pop!
What a beautiful place! One of the most beautiful tiny house I’ve seen here in your channel! Not too tiny, which makes you walk curved in the bedroom. Not too big as a regular house, which makes you tired for cleaning. 😉 I really love the combination of the black cabinetry with the woody accent in furniture. I love that slide door to the bathroom. Great work again Bryce! Congratulations to this couple!
Thank you for this, Bryce & Rasa. These tiny home owners are a special couple with a lovely home--a well-considered floor plan, with great touches and unique character. A suggestion: "Pedantic." To sort-of quote Inigo Montoya, "I do not think it means what she thinks it means." 😉 That said, Russell & Leah, you're absolutely right--it is just the beginning--enjoy the good times surely coming your way!😊
Such a beautiful smart home. You both seem like a very lovely couple who have worked hard and contributed to your community. I hope you enjoy your beautiful home as you begin to slow down on work. And please ignore the ignorant internet trolls with their nasty comments, there’s nothing wrong with a woman having the more outgoing personality & the man being laid back.
I'm sold! Gorgeous home. I never thought about measuring my toaster to see where it would be in my home, but it's a good idea for going tiny. 👍😊🖖💕
Hello
This is what I'm waiting for, single level. Loving it
This design layout is amazing! She thought of everything and did not compromise. Well done!
It's obvious they invested 3 years in the planning to create such a well thought through design. They made provisions for all of their concerns, assigned a designated space for everything & intentionally crafted each aspect to be functionally efficient. It's a lovely home with all the comforts of luxury living incredibly done on a practical scale. Thank you for sharing, I truly enjoyed the tour.
What a delightful home! I have been watching Living Big in a Tiny House with Bryce throughout Covid-19 and it is the direction I will be going towards myself. This house is one of the top three I have "saved" for future reference. Wishing Leah and Russell the very best in their transition to "tiny" living in New Zealand. I live in New York City (we know about "tiny"!) but travelled through New Zealand - both islands - after building Habitat for Humanity housing for a Maori family on the North Island. New Zealand took my breath away with its beauty - there is no place on the planet like it --- you are very, very fortunate. Cheers!
Glad you liked our little corner of the world. I love New York too, such extremes. I have also helped on Habitat for Humanity - and my NY friend helped on a build in Fiji - such rojecta worth while p
What an amazing Tiny, congratulations to the couple for getting it so right!
Who has friends like this??? (That let you live on their property?) And what an amazing piece of land!!
I am an architect , and I can say beauty y simplicity is the mark of this home . Well done indor /outdoor relation . I could easily live in a home like this . Thanks Leah & Russell.- Bryce and Rasa.
A beautiful tiny home in gorgeous NZ location, thank you, ... but the gorgeous senior dog at the end in his awesome sheepskin coat took my heart. 🥰
One of my favourites! Great to see such a well-designed single story place. I think the darker kitchen gives a sense of calm and coziness, as well as emphasising the green of the outdoors. The three years of careful planning is very evident. Thank you Leah and Russell for sharing your home and ideas. It’s disappointing to see some negative unkind comments being made. I only see a happy couple who have made a new beginning for themselves. I’d be more than happy for someone to design a place like this for me, doing all the research and making the final decisions is not something I would enjoy
It’s definitely the bathroom for me! The way that they had their laundry room built in was flawlessly executed. I also loved those pull out drawers for the mini appliances in the kitchen. *chef’s kiss
That’s one of the 2 best I’ve seen. Have to have a ground-floor BR, full bath, needs a stackable W/D though; I hear the combo takes too long to dry. Love the deck and the French doors that open all the way. Absolutely beautiful terrain/views. Well done.
