I am honestly SO in love with this place. What a clever conversion!
Such a delightful space! And the art 😍✨
It certainly beats filling your garage with junk !
This space is really nice. The owners did a wonderful job creating this.
I absolutely love this one!!! It is so eclectic but done very well!!! You could definitely turn this into a full time living space! Cheers
Beautiful space . Love the way they converted that ole garage into this well designed mini oasis !!! I would want the bedroom downstairs closer to the bathroom. Make the upstairs into a yoga meditation loft !!! So happy it's doggo friendly !! Great find #tinyhouseexpedition 👏👍🌿🏡🤍
Thank you! Like the meditation loft idea ✌️
This tiny home is gorgeous and spacious! It’s so-well decorated.
I love the design of this space! So cool! For full time living I agree about the areas of extra space being used differently. I’d leave the kids space upstairs but as an adult I’d make the living room the adult bedroom and the sitting space the living room.
Upstairs would be just a dreamy fort bedroom for kids!
This house has such a stylish charm! I loved it. It’s layout is really good and seems so spacious for being a small place. There’s something about it that gives a certain kind of feeling that is unique and different.
Well put ☺️
I love this beautiful creative space. So any great aspects, the garage door, the hands, the tiles in the shower, the wall papered door for the bathroom, the hanging space, not sure what I don’t like about the beautiful creative home. I really love it.
“YOU’RE KILLING ME SMALLS!” BEST MOVIE. EVER. 🤘🏻
Yesss 😁🔥🤘
That definitely would be my dream home! They did a great Job! I agree with your ideas to make it permanent. You could consider a spiral staircase too, that would free up floor space. Also, possibly consider converting the living room space into a bedroom with a half wall/headboard/dresser which would maintain the open concept space. The Garage door is definitely a keeper. Love it.
Excellent ideas! 😊
That's the coolest space EVER !
I really like this...with a fews tweeks, I'd have me Villa.
I love so many things about this home, including the decor and the doggie door. The shower is one of a kind! The living room is stunning. But for me, I would probably turn it into the bedroom so it is on the same floor as the bathroom. And use the flex space as the living room. Upstairs would become the flex space...office...storage...guest area, alternative place to chill. Your ideas to make the kitchen more functional would be perfect too.
This is such exceptional design space that I don't have the words!!!
It is such a beautiful space 😍
What a great little house. Looks comfy and nice.
this!! round of applause!!! its just so beautiful and "quirky" which i love!! they out did themselves!!!
Lol ya'll are so cute. I think the best way to make this place even better is a patio table with umbrella outside that kitchen garage door. Love the decor.
🥰 and good call on patio furniture 👌
And a barbecue grill.
I love the kitsch-inspired art in the house!
The living room would become my art studio, the 'flex room' - with the added window Alexis mentioned - would become the living room.
Sounds lovely 😊✨
I stayed in a hotel in Vegas that had that same bathroom but the tile where the subway tile is in this one, it had square yellow tiles
The Sand Lot is so Cool 😎 it Talks about history about are Amazing Baseball heroes
It’s beautiful! I lived in a large studio this size. Very easy to enjoy alone or with someone you really love.💗
!Loved the house - the interior & exterior and the location. Thanks for the ideas on making it fit full time living. Great to see a tiny home on a foundation. I wanted to build tiny 25 years ago on my 27 acres - building code wouldn't allow it.
Appreciate the love! Damn codes can really get in the way; there’s much improvement but much left to do
Beautiful as-is, but I would take both sides of the kitchen to fill out the kitchen. I'd take out the kitchen sink & replace it with a wall-oven and cabinetry underneath for pots, pans and bakeware. Then I would build out the other side for the sink, glass stovetop and bigger prep area, along with a tall cabinet for brooms and such. The "flex space" would then be the dining room. I loved your ideas for turning the water heater closet into a coat closet (or pantry) and using the 2nd "bedroom" for clothes & other storage. This is really a beautiful place and I loved all the imaginative art and fun pieces sprinkled throughout the space, especially the shower tiles and towel holder. Thanks for this great video. You both did a great job.
Overall, this is just gorgeous!! I’m obsessed with the art. I’m from Cleveland Ohio where the Christmas Story House still stands today so it was really cool to see that art and the shower…. Superb!!!
I’d totally live in that place super cute
I’d put storage under the couch. Like drawers with a SAC couch on top. Cozy with storage. Also an outdoor shower to match the hot tub
Great ideas, and we love an outdoor shower!!
It's a gorgeous space and the art pieces are so whimsical. I like your ideas for turning it into a permanent home. Personally, I'd love to punch up the ceiling in the loft...my knees would declare mutiny if I were on all-fours!
I often start rearranging a house...I was a designer for a few years in New Hampshire. I would prefer a bedroom on the first floor, too. You two made a lot of great suggestions! Thank you for sharing!
Very cool 😊 Appreciate your kind feedback too
I live in NH! what part did you work in?
@@crackers1039 I lived in Hampton Beach, Derry and Salem… Basically Sothern NH. I worked in Methuen and Lawrence, MA
I'd prefer to keep the downstairs "as is", but what about replacing the fireplace wall area with a murphy bed that becomes a DESK in the daytime? And yes, a window would be perfect. For the murphy bed / desk, could you use a "double size bed" or "3/4 size bed"? Would that allow enough space for a window above this smaller bed? It makes sense to sleep on same level as the bathroom. Upstairs could be used for storage and meditation, as already mentioned. Thanks for sharing this simple and gorgeous space.
Love the Murphy bed idea! Most seem to come with full size mattress size which definitely gives you some solid extra space in that room 👌
Yes, I’ve seen Murphy beds that are not “vertical “. They are opened like a book, so to speak. However, I’ve never seen that specific (open like a book)Murphy bed/desk but that’s the beauty of the Murphy concept you can make them however you need. I love your idea though.
A cabinet, tri-fold mattress Murphy bed would be excellent!
@@leelulady2010 a Murphy bed would be ideal for downstairs sleeping!
Murphy-tize everything! I agree with the ideas about utilizing the Murphy Bed concept wherever possible, and would like to suggest some kind of wall-mounted counters to use as workspaces or dining options. I'd also replace the garage bay door with a lovely glass single door and sliding window, and add cabinets and countertop along that wall. As for anyone who plans to include infants and small kids in their lives or to have them as guests: projectile puking & pooping, weeping kids often need to be carried between bed, bath & tub! Include a ground floor bedroom with enough space for a parent with a tired, aching back to easily & quickly ferry soiled kids & laundry to & from bed, bath & laundry, and make to easily make the bed (again). A bathtub or utility sink is a must for soaking & rinsing soiled linens, throw rugs & kids!! That said, families need separate washer & dryer units! The wash/dry machines take FOREVER, and are noisy. Sheets, towels, blankets & cloth diapers require a FAST turnover time! Seriously.🤮 I speak from a nasty experience: Wedding/Rental cabin/Yosemite/Salmonella.
I follow your channel just from a few weeks and I love it! I am not one to comment videos but in this case i really wanted to: this concept of you suggesting creatives ideas to change the layout/furniture to better the space is GREATH!!! Makes me dream and activate my creative brain even more! Thank you!
Happy to hear it, and thank you so much! We’ll be releasing more of these style videos soon ☺️❤️
Brilliant and beautiful 😍
This one helped me come a long way towards returning here regularly. It's good to see y'all back.
Thank you Kimberly ☺️
Sand Lot was an awesome video.
I love seeing you guys grow. I've been here since you started showing us your tiny. You crazy kids are adorable!! Big love
Thank you very much for the love & support! 😁🥰💕
Tiny House Expedition. Yes. You're crazy for living in a tiny house but you're also adorable as a couple who has spread the word about "living tiny" as an affordable lifestyle.
More importantly, this homr is nice and clean. I love the addrd light upstairs. Your colord used are great.
This is absolutely beautiful! And with extra shelves and cabinets would be a beautiful home.
A lot of creativeness went into making the upstairs unique. I'm loving that trampoline for increasing the bedroom space and also for not blocking the view downstairs which adds a feeling of spaciousnes to the bedroom. One thing I've never seen in a loft space where there isn't enough vertical space to stand up without one's head touching the ceiling is actually a very simple solution to navigating around the area without bending down, squatting or crawling. Just put a desk chair that moves on casters at the entrance/exit of the room. You can sit in the chair and "walk" around the room that way. I know that sounds odd but as a person with 40 years of back problems, I know that my back would be grateful.
Clever solution that’s more back health-friendly!
It's definitely a great vacation rental. If living there full time, I would want the bedroom downstairs.
You two were as much fun as the ideas for the house 🏠!
The hands lol 🙌 super cute
What gorgeous home. That shower tile is really amazing
I absolutely love that place. I've thought about a garage with the lean-to. I think it's great they made the safe area for pet's. Oh man...... I wish I was ready to sell and start my tiny forever home journey. I'm going to watch this video every day and hope it gets me motivated ❣️
It’s such a great size! Best wishes with your planning!! 💕
I"d take out the fireplace and move it to the living room under tv. Id add shelves behind the couch.. Then i would take out the garage door... wrap the kitxhen around to enlarge it.. put in a real dining table (side against the wall could be a storage bench seat.).. then id put an office and window where the fireplace used to be. Where the doggy door is, id put a real door (with a built in doggy door)... outside that door id put an outdoor small seating area.. then id put an outdoor grill and patio table and chairs on the concrete area. I agree with laundry and closet built under the stairs .. as well as the on demand hot water..
Dig your ideas! A full door with dog door would be much more convenient and practical 🐶
I live those bathroom tiles🥰
What a great idea for at-home offices, college students, aging parents, a guest house, a retreat or rental income !
It makes a nice sleepover place for kids.
Fabulous! And HOOKS rule! 😂 Funny…I just installed 6 hooks over the last weekend in places where they were needed. Game changers! Such a simple solution. This home is a terrific option and one that hadn’t occurred to me as I plan my upcoming retirement into a tiny style home from my 2K sq ft home. Beautiful
You guys are awesome. Such a great space and nice story!
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS TINY HOUSE, WOULD NOT CHANGE A THING EXCEPT MAKE A PINCEL CLOSET FOR THE VACCUM/MOP/BROOM, AND A TANKESS WATER HEATER. I LOVE THE OPENNESS/ less clutter. 🥰😍👍✌️
Clutter-free always feels fantastic!
Just amazing and so tranquil.
very intersting, nice and comfy with lots of natural lights
I could almost tell when the gentleman was going to say "yeah, totally" or "totally". LOL
Beautiful 👍💚🌸💖🎉
A very nice spot, definitely filled with potential!
The little hands reminded me of the hotdog fingers in "Everything Everywhere All At Once"!
🤣
Loved your approach to showing how this works as a rental, and thinking how it could work as a home. I like all your ideas - I'd move move the mattress(es) and build in storage where the roof slopes very low, instead of trying to sleep there.
Thank you! It would make an excellent storage loft 😁👌
Omg you haven't watch "The Sandlot". It is a kid movie for all ages. Great movie. One I'll put on for kids instead of wierd bobble heads. Love that movie and Sandlot2 wasn't bad either.
💯🤘
Wow! So loved your full time tweaks and ideas too. Great job!
Thank you Debra!
Love it and your suggestions for full time living make it even more desirable . Thank you 😊
So happy to hear it Susan! ☺️❤️
really great space! love it in the black stain... interior design is spot on...
Love the home.. Cle Elm is so beautiful. Also, good looking out with that Meow Wolf tee 🔥
Why thank you 😉😊
Would definitely put a closet in the upstairs 2nd bedroom (where the bed is) and add a work space there on the opposite wall.
that steve carrel print over the terlet tho👌
Nice just nice an loved what you fixed for your dog safe an sucure
You guys are getting so close to 300K subs!!!! 😃
Almost there!!!
@@TinyHouseExpedition As one of your O.G. subs, I am super stoked for you!!!! 🥰
@@ILOLnumber1 thank you very much 🥰
I love love this Tiny house it's so comfy great ideas to guys 💕
Love it!!
Love the hangnet area!💯
Very good design layout 💗
I would nix the cool garage door and do a wrap around kitchen and put a glass door in the flex space that leads into a dining area.My house now is 605 sq. ft. and storage is the key to a small house, so that other bedroom would become a huge closet.I love it for an Airbnb just the way it is though.
We do really love the character of that door but do dig your idea 😁😊 605 sqft sounds 👌👌
Flipping the L of the couch to the window wall would open the traffic pattern. It would be very tempting to put an array of Natural Edged floating shelves on the window wall wrapping to the other wall to highlight the woods outside and give you the illusion of the trees coming into the space. The dog door going out onto a covered porch & open fenced area is a great perk for animal friendly rental.
Brilliant!!!
Nice, guys!🤗👍. Fulltime living definitely needs a washing machine. Like the idea of furniture on casters.....work or relax by a window. Winnie looks content in front of a window. Take care.
Yes to casters! Winnie had a great time ☺️❤️
Adorable Place 😍
Luv it !!!!!
I love this little home, the home owner did an excellent job in building and the colors and elrmrnts inside are great ❤
Beautiful build.
This place is adorable. You guys are adorable too 😁. The little hands are a bit creepy, I think? 🤣
Why thank you ☺️ and those hands are a definitely a lil creepy 😂
Super cute set up!
Very pretty house. Nice ideas, dog door is great. Definitely needs storage spaces. Also kitchen is pretty tiny. Very pretty house though.
Thanks for the kind feedback 😊
I would put a Murphy bed where the fireplace is.
Dig it!
How cool is that to watch the train
It’s so charming!
Closets are essential; even for vacationers. Half of the upstairs netting could be enclosed to add a removable IKEA-type closet. After all, European closets are often removable.
I’m short so, I could def walk up there lol. But really, what an awesome house!
amazing decorate !!! Really Love it so so much ....
💕
I NEED to know where they got those art prints from!!
Great question!! Reach out to the designer/builders: www.digs-co.com 😊
