Question.. How do you move your Tiny House to a new location ? Thanks, P.S. Totally love the Shower... similar structure to Japanese Tea House...and one could enjoy Tea as well.
I love this house, but it looks like you are parked in someone’s backyard……Thats not legal in my state. There is also a problem with a LOT of land that you are restricted to what you can put on it….AND live in. 😞. I do love your home but I heard at the end that you are parked in a family’s backyard…and again, in my state, it’s illegal 😞😞
@@Noname-cn4ly get involved with local government and work to change those laws! :-)
Question about your Tiny Home: I noticed your tuck away stairs only have 2 steps (loved that BTW which is why I am asking) that tuck under the stairs. Is it possible to have stairs with a "higher option" - possibly maybe 3 stairs tuck instead of two or is that even an option due to space limitations? From: A Brother who has a Nephew that likes to climb and give my Sister heart attacks.
Man that's a pretty big tiny house. And it's so cozy inside, this is one of the only tiny houses I could actually see myself possibly living in lol
ISN'T tiny whatsoever
I agree 100%. I really like this (not so tiny) tiny house.
@@dieseldabz7104 and what would you define as a tiny house?
Yeah this is huge for tiny which is nice lol
This is a normal home in Europe
This is the most efficient tiny home for a family of 2 to 4. Extremely well thought out. I love the shower/tub area with the windows.
It's not efficient at all. It runs on propane and has ZERO solar or other renewable energy sources
But the tub is so small. You can't lay down in it and looks like a pain to bathe a baby/toddler in
Effective spacing for toys
@@leahtv7778 seems small, but you can sit in it comfortably because its relatively deep.
4? One kids gonna be an issue once he's a teen, but two will be an impossible nightmare If they raise two kids all the way to adulthood in this space, those kids are gonna have some issues regarding privacy and having friends over and such For the next max 10 years it might work, provided the kids don't develop a severe hatred for each other But after that they're either damaging their kids psychy or they'll be moving
Personally I feel like this is THE best example of what a tiny house should be. I know not everyone needs this much space but every corner, hidden space and inch of this house is used. That's smart, convenient and will give you the feeling of assurance knowing you're not wasting anything. I love this. ❤
This is one of the most impressive tiny houses I’ve ever seen! Honestly, this man has talent! I’d want him to build my tiny house if I ever get one. I absolutely love the shower & the cat nooks, also the starry sky in the child’s room.
Feel free to reach out to us on insta or our website if you want to chat further about your dream tiny home!
Holy crap these two are so clever. They've got so many cool little tricks that there's literally no compromises. This might be the coolest tiny home I've ever seen
Right?? Same haha
Thank you so much for your kind comments about our home 💙💚💛
please dont say holy like that
Isn't it though!!! Truly so unique and creative!! I'm sure a lot of time went into the construction and design💕😀 Here I was feeling so proud of myself for making a bench and a Murphy desk from scraps of old furniture.
I agree
Hands down the BEST tiny house design ever!!! Every square inch is carefully considered and oriented towards how this couple wants to live. So many clever features but the stand-out has to be the “child-proof” stairs. The best kitchen layout too… just stunning! Congratulations on this inspired build!!!!!
Yeah I like the stairs too but it kinda made me chuckle. I have a 3 year old so I know from experience that in about a year that kid will be climbing up that wall and onto the staircase lol
@@GlorifiedGremlin True - but by then he’ll be stair-safe!
Hands down!
@@akindofmagick Idk about that. My daughter is very sure footed but she still trips over air sometimes for no reason lol all it takes is bad timing and off they go to the bottom of a staircase
Take it from me that can happen to an adult. Lol
Now this particular tiny house could work. Most of them just look like boxes and I’d be claustrophobic. Kudos on the design
I love the thought they put into this home! Not only thinking of what they wanted they thought of the child for playing and his room! Also love the stairs go in at the bottom for child safety! Love the heating of the floors which helps if you live someplace where it’s cold in the winters! It’s so much better buying a tiny home than renting an apartment. Great job!
Hello Deborah how are you doing hopefully you are doing good??
I love how they incorporated the child’s room and designed for future children. It’s really well done. 👍🏼💕 Beautiful home.
Yes, the baby’s room is so cozy.
Lol yeah but imagine when that kid becomes a teen And then imagine a second teen Might work now when they're babies but even just one kid as a teen will become an issue, but two? That will be a nightmare.
But your sweet little boy stole the show, lol!
@@littleloner1159 no sealed doors, no privacy, just with a single teenager this will turn into hell pretty quick, or the child will end up as the weird one in school that gets bullied.
@@zhufortheimpaler4041 100% they are home schooling types
This house is BRILLIANTLY designed. So intelligent. Especially the kitchen. Fridge, sink, prep, cook and serve all in a sequence. I have seen sooooo many tiny house where the kitchens are just so piled in and on. Sink right beside the stove,.... insane. This is brilliant.
I love the concept of the dish drainer above the sink. I've seen it before, but it's like, why have we not been doing this from the get go?!?
I like how they use the corner cabinet space. Wasted space is my nemesis in traditional homes, and they have done a great job combating that while keeping it tiny!
Ive seen countless tiny homes, and this one is by far the most well thought out and adorable plan I have ever seen, it seems by design, every single space is multi purposed. I'm so impressed!
This is by far the best tiny home I have reviewed. So much thought was put into it. Thx for sharing.
Glad you liked the tour, thanks for your comment :)
The sliding lower steps to baby-proof the staircase is genius! As is the drop-down spice rack. And the corner chest freezer. And the atrium bath/shower....
My favorite features as well
lol pretty much everything is perfect it’s really amazing
if they need to service or change said freezer, i think it will be a headache to get out.
Finally, a tiny house where someone made their loft into an office! That's what I would want to do but I never saw anyone doing it, and it looks like it works great! Also I'm in love with that starry sky ceiling.
That’s a well cool little house in the kitchen the drop-down spice rack is particularly impressive you’ve made use of all the space in such a small house brilliant
Very well designed and thoughtfully planned including their fur baby which most people tend to forget about when planning their home. I love the dressing area away from the bathroom. It's one of the better designs I've see with 3 lofts. He said he builds tiny houses. It would be awesome to see a few of those too. Great work D'Arcy.
Thanks for the love Wendy! Check out our website if you want to see a few of the other builds we've done, and follow us on Instagram! We've got a whole build schedule lined up right now and there will be plenty more of these fun designs coming in the near future!
0pp 8 i8iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
This is the best tiny house I’ve ever seen on KZhead for years. Every inch of the space was well thought of and creatively useful. The bathroom design is my favorite.
IM OBSESSED!!! I've never seen a builder be so creative and use every inch so wisely. 3 lofts? Yes please! I'm short so the lowered ceiling downstairs wouldn't phase me at all.
As a cat lover, I can say that cat is in heaven. All cats seem to love having their hiding spots. But then times when they want humans around. Kudos for thinking of her needs, as well.
this is the first tiny house with storage for jackets and boots…exzellent design and well conceived!!!
Every family has that one person who will break the family financial struggle I hope you become the one

@@owenbrandy7248 you're right, it's obvious a lot of people remain poor due to ignorance, it's better to take risks and make sacrifices than to stay poor
@@johnclerk6760 I recently got into forex trading and I'm already marvelling over the profits am making
@@owenbrandy7248 same here, I wish I knew about this Bitcoin trading earlier, brace up and get yourself some bitcoin before it's too late
Obviously trading in bitcoin is very volatile and risky to trade that's the reason most traders trade with a company
This is, by far, the best tiny house that I've seen, this far. You guys did a great job! It's stunning and so well laid-out!❣️
I absolutely love the office space!! It’s often forgotten about in tiny homes or left for a pull out desk which is impractical for someone who will use it everyday 40 hours a week. It looks like it has storage and allows for multiple seating adjustments. Great video!
I like the chest freezer in the corner unit. The drop down spice rack is genius!Toekick storage is something that is big with me. Like the office space. Great lighting option, check! There is so much epic things that I am just about speechless.
Hello 👋 Rita How are you doing today
@@alexdiaz4181 I am doing well. For a Monday, it is a good day. Checking my KZhead, Facebook and Twitter on occasion. Blessed to be alive!🕊
@@ritabroils6190 Oh ok sounds great to hear Where are you from?
@@alexdiaz4181 Cincinnati,Ohio,USA
@@ritabroils6190 Nice place, Am originally from Finland but lives in Texas.. Are you originally from USA 🇺🇸?
1 of the top 3 tiny houses suitable for a young family I have seen over the past 10 years on you tube!! Such a great bathroom and laundry space too!!!!
I love how you designed the home with ALL of you in mind -including your kitty!! Great job!! Looks amazing!
Hello Mary how are you doing hopefully you are doing good??
Love your home. So much space, yet there is a small foot print. Great job! The little one is so happy and content isn't hurting for anything.
Hello Debora how are you doing hopefully you are doing good??
Love that this is spacious and fully designed to meet this family's needs. Love the kitchen (that counter space is really well laid out) and the bathroom idea with the windows and the dual shower and bathtub is amazing.
This is one of the cleverest tiny homes I’ve seen! So many smart storage solutions. It really feels like a home.
Hello 👋 linda How are you doing today
What I loved the most is the appreciation of the respective spouses by each other... I love how they think of each other and baby as well as kitty..!!
I am retired and 62 I would love to have a tiny home for myself and 2 huskys. Live in Utah and putting a tiny home on family s property is a great idea. I believe we will see more of these in the future.
I actually like that the laundry room and shower is there right when you step in. That is actually a smart placement more than anything I have seen.
That baby is growing in a fantasy world! One could only wonder the stimulation of his imagination when he goes to sleep in a room that looks like taken from a children story book; fantastic home!
imagine he is 14..... and has to share the room without door with his smaller sibling. going to get "fun"
@@zhufortheimpaler4041 Even more fun when that sibling turns out to be a girl and she starts having her period. It's gonna be like Taken, alright.
and did you catch his name? Osiris. !!!!!
I am genuinely impressed with that spice cabinet and the under-sink storage drawer. Well done! Also, very much in love with that shower bump-out, and the starry night sky in Osiris' loft.
I'm 65 now and am not sure how much time I have. This Tiny home would suit me fine. Very Nice.
I love how it was so well thought out! Space utilised perfectly. I was wondering what that was hanging over the kitchen and thought ‘is that like a massive rock or something for decoration’ then when showing the office I see it’s a desk! I would never have thought of that. Brilliant idea! The kitchen is deceptively roomy and that’s due to how everything has been placed perfectly and every bit of space used. I just love what they’ve done with their home
Deceptively roomy... I like that description 😂
That is a big tiny home that seams to be so cleverly perfect for the family who lives in it. It's gorgeous
This is a dream tiny house! I was instantly sold on the design seeing the cat tunnels and the beautiful kitty making use of them. Plus her spaces are well designed. The whole house is stunning. Very cozy, with tons of thoughtful touches to make it very efficient on space and storage. Very clever design throughout. The atrium shower/tub is the coolest I've seen, and I've watched hundreds of tiny house videos over the years. If I could afford a tiny house, Acorn is definitely who I'd go with. Spectacular design overall
This has to be one of the best "tiny" homes I've seen. It's design is fabulous and utilises every inch of space ... and kitty has been included. 😻
I adore the way they made sure of incorporating space for their lil furbaby 🥹🥰 no kitty left behind! 🐾🐈⬛
Very cool house. When you own a tiny house company, you can take all the features you like from your clients' homes, and incorporate into your own.
Hello 👋 jayme How are you doing today?
@@alexdiaz4181 not here to get picked up on..
This is one of the most beautiful tiny homes I have ever seen. I completely love the design and the bath tub is amazing. I especially like that there is room for a full sized french door fridge (that is a big plus for me) and a dishwasher. I would, however, need a queen sized bed as we have our pets also sleep with us. Great video.
Incredible design! So beautiful and efficient. Not a space wasted. Love the lofts and changing area. Brilliant idea! The decor brings spring nature throughout the home. I LOVE the Framed Egyptian art in living room! Osiris is an adorable little guy and thriving is your home. It's safety secured in every way, so PERFECT for raising kids!!
Seriously, THE nicest tiny home I have ever seen. It doesn't feel tiny at all. Alot of ingenuity went into the build.
This is beautiful -and your son is going to have so many sweet childhood memories of a close family👍❤️ today kids are left to much alone and just have an iPad/iPhone to use and parents too😔 we need more “living” like you guys👍👍❤️
Intelligent people lives like you! Congratulations!!!
This is the most Amazing multi functional beautifully crafted tiny home I've ever seen& I've seen thousands. Ty for sharing& I wish your family much happiness& love. Your Son is precious. My Son is not nearing 29 and my Grandson is 3 so i was thrilled to see how your Son is not missing out on anything💖blessings
I can't get over how cute his little suspenders are ❤️
This tiny home is awesome and it actually looks like a nice size. I absolutely love how you guys also have your fur baby in mind while building it. For me, that tells me your fur baby is part of your family and not just an animal. Love it.
Hello Lisa how are you doing hopefully you are doing good??
I never thought I could adjust to a tiny house. I’m used to living in a 21 room house with 5 bedrooms etc. THIS tiny house is the best I’ve ever seen. Now that I’m older and the kids are gone…I’d consider a tiny house but only THIS tiny house. It’s awesome! Thanks for sharing 👍🏽
one of my favorite tiny homes on youtube.
That shower is amazing! I really love this house design. It’s so well thought out. The kitchen is a really great set up. Just beautiful
Absolutely one of the most intuitive and functional living spaces I've ever seen (watched 100's of tiny house videos)! Really like your pull-out drawers and usage of "wasted" space!
Huge tiny house fan, but like RVs, by themselves (no land)….they are a depreciating asset, whereas stick-built homes stuck on lots generally appreciate over time and many in the US use this increase to help fund their retirement. Hopefully more neighborhoods will zone in areas for tiny homes to address this (even if just including smaller lots in newly built neighborhoods which could be bought or rented for tiny homes). I would love to see many more tiny home lots and communities. PS….an amazing build!
Perhaps a way to update vacant city lots.
I feel like this is a way to inflate the cost of living. That much square footage for permanent home land prices is a ripoff.
wow they really put hard work on this one and they take all the advantage of space.. This is brilliant
I actually fell in love with this family as they are articulate, humble and totally badass. Such a cool design!
Absolutely love the atrium shower!!❤️He is definitely going to do great with his business!!!
Thank you!! This was definitely one of our favorite features to engineer!
@@Acorntinyhomes my favorite feature!
This is probably the best layout, organization and space utilization I’ve ever seen in a tiny home
I've been viewing Tiny Homes for over 10yrs.. this is the best design I've ever seen.
Your use of cool spaces that are normally unused areas are amazing like the deep freezer and the spaces under cabinets
This is beautiful and unique. When the wife helped to build it. The wife is a keeper.
The two of you are amazing. Brilliant design. Love the way the whole home flows. The shower is a spectacular concept. Hiding the spice rack above the sink was genius. You both are to be commended. Beautiful home and well done. D'Arcy, you are definitely doing what you were called to do. God bless you both and thanks for sharing your home with us. Good luck in the future.
Hats off to anyone that can live that close to the parents.
One of the best tiny homes and use of space and lofts that I've seen.
What a gorgeous design!! And the baby is precious. You can see how happy and secure he is.
This has got to be the best Tiny Home I have ever seen... and I have seen allot. The work you and our wife did on this design is just amazing...
Best tiny my husband and i have EVER seen! Wow!
Out of all the tiny homes I have seen, THIS IS THE ONE!!! I❤THIS ONE!!!
The brilliance of this design made me cheer like I was going to live here! The countertop and the chest freezer are the best I've ever seen in a tiny house! Definitely more room here than my 2bdrm, 2 ba apt!
What is there not to like about this tiny home, it’s unique & cosy I love it, and the loft is amazing with the beams! Yep I could happily live here 😃
Hello 👋 misty How are you doing today
This tiny home is so awsesome and perfict! The bonus is you have a place to park it close to family!
Good to see a tiny home in a cold climate. I often watch you tube with a tiny home in a warm climate, and I wonder if it could work in our Canadian winter.
Amazing house with an amazing vibe. I loved the way Darcy was able to think outside the box and come up with interesting ways to make everything accessible.
Hello Alice how are you doing hopefully you are doing good??
The Japanese artwork looks like it has sparkles in it's eyes.
THIS HOME IS BEAUTIFUL...THE COMLAINTS I HAVE ON MOST I SEE S NICE HOME WITH NO TUB & NO TV'S YA HAVE 😁 BOTH...THE STRUCTURE OF IT ALL IS AMAZING.... I WOULD LIVE HERE!!!
I live in a small house - not a tiny one, but a small one, and just over half of it is mine completely. I can use the other side as long as guests of the owners aren't there - I live on a large property and the owners live in another house on the property. Sometimes their guests stay on the other side of my house if they don't have room for them in their house. My place is bigger than yours, but your bathroom is bigger than mine, especially your shower. I love your bathroom. Your house has been very well designed, and I love, love, love how you've incorporated your cat into its design as well. Not everyone takes their pets into consideration when planning their homes, but you've done a great job with that. When it comes to your son, too, you've done well by him. Great job on your house! It's wonderful.
What a beautifully thought out & built tiny house. And like others, probably the first I would actually consider living in. Love the way they incorporated their cat’s living spaces & especially love the kitchen with the full size bench space, the chest freezer & full fridge especially! And love the bright shower area that lets a lot of light into the house, although I’d want shutters for the side windows for when I shower as I like privacy. Love the upstairs rooms too. Really great little home.
It's really nice ❤! The only problem would be is I'm 6 foot 2 so I might be constantly ducking and minding my head while in a tiny home. But they did say 100% customizable, but at the same time it probably wouldn't be tiny anymore 😅. But if I had to downsize for any reason this home would be quite doable 👍!
I love this design. I especially love the office. Tiny homes often ignore the office part and this is very well done.
This is truly beautiful! And how perfect for raising children! Close by to stay safe, the light coming in is awesome! Your home is like what we'd call a show home ⭐. It's far easier as well for organisation than most would think, and well done you lovely young parents to be living and teaching your child and future children about having your needs met without excessive items 👍🇭🇲 I just love this 💕
Hello Susan how are you doing hopefully you are doing good??
Lower sliding steps for baby proofing; drop down spice cabinet; everything about the bathroom!; corner space freezer; living room setup; actually having railings for the stairs.... I just love every unique thought & feature of this home, including the lighting. It's just such detail that makes sense, but a normal person like me wouldn't have thought of. 😂. Thank goodness you created a company where everyone can benefit from your unique brain.
I love the bathroom! The shower/tub is so luxurious! Something you don't find in tiny homes that you commonly see.
Such a smart and beautiful home 😍. I love the backsplash ❤️
Those tiles kick ass!
One of the most well designed spaces I've ever seen
I love the mud room style entry! So many tiny homes enter right into living spaces where there is no room to remove winter gear. We’ll thought out home.
This is the most realistic and functional tiny house I've ever seen. I really love the shower and all the storage. This is by far the best Tony house out there.
very well thought out and functional. you can tell this man put a lot of heart into building this for his family.
Incredible!!! I LOVE Osiris room and the shower... the collapsing stairs are a brilliant idea, and I dig the cat has her own little areas up high... amazing ♡
It’s so lovely to see such a dynamic partnership in marriage and values wow that baby is blessed !
This is my favorite tiny house ever. Out of all of the tiny houses that I have seen on all of the channels this one is the best in my opinion. Wow.
You don't know how awesome that makes me feel to hear you say that 🥰🥳
One of the most livable tiny homes I have ever seen with a wonderful kitchen and storage! Love the design and such a great family! Thanks for sharing!
This home is absolutely gorgeous and perfect . I love 😊❤ what y’all did with everything. I would never go back to regular . I’d tiny house in this type of build any day.
Love this tiny house build! The kitchen and bathroom plus laundry area are selling points for me! Love the kitty areas too!!
What a fabulous design. That chest freezer in the corner is a brilliant idea. Love the drop down built in spice cabinet. So many neat little space saving ideas while leaving the home feel open and spacious.
What a gorgeous home you have!! It all seems to fit together so beautifully! Thank you for sharing! Enjoy and have fun!!! I love you.
I'm addicted to tiny houses. This one is the bomb. This design is one at the top. I love it and will be following
That’s pure genius on the office space, the kitchen is my favorite part of the build. Love the incorporation on the lil couch for the lil one own space.
Love that you’re raising your son in a tiny home. Kids truly need *even less* than we adults “need.” Can’t wait to see more from your family!!
Until it hits him how different his life is from all his friends in school.
@@justgivemethetruth that can be hard for anyone, young/old, to realize they're not the same as everyone else. but, then again, we all have something that makes our family unique...and we all share similarities, too.
This is definitely one of the better layouts I've seen. I'm in love with that japanese bathtub! So pretty!
What an amazingly well thought out home. Lovely
