This 12ft by 15ft house is so much more than just a very tiny house. It is a true sanctuary. The small dimensions only add to the beauty and comfort of this home. The first thing that one notices approaching this tiny house is the wonderful wrap around deck. With a enclosing fireplace around the cozy seating area the back section of this deck is the perfect place to lounge and relax after a long day. The fireplace allows this space to be ideal temperature whatever the weather.  The deck also has a hot tub which can be used to soak sore muscles or warm up in the winter. Around the side of the deck are two swinging chairs and a grill for some outdoor cooking and evening chilling. With the trees around and the birds chirping this outside space is a huge part of the appeal of this tiny house.  Entering the house from the deck through the sliding glass doors, which also provide lovely light for the living area, one notices that despite being tiny this house has everything they need without feeling cramped. Directly opposite the sliding doors is the kitchen area and bathroom, both under the loft. The kitchen has a granite sink and counter tops for cooking and cleaning, a stove top, a microwave, a mini fridge, and plenty of cabinets  for storage. I love the grocery store so the small fridge and limited storage won’t be a problem as I will restock frequently. At the end of the kitchen is a small table which seats 4 facing the lovely windows for eating when one can’t or doesn’t want to eat outside. The bathroom is walled off to the side of the kitchen and has everything a bathroom needs. By the stairs to the loft are two bookshelves and two beanbags for some reading relaxing in the open space, with lots of lights. Climbing the stairs one sees the loft bedroom. This is very much a bedroom space with a comfortable bed, nightstand, and dresser/mirror. It also has a washer/dryer for cleaning the clothes which is conveniently right next to the dresser so putting clothes away is so easy. At the end of the bed is a love seat for relaxing and reading or watching netfilx when one doesn’t want to relax in bed. The loft setting  and copious windows give the feeling of lots of space in this room as well as in the rest of the house. Overall this tiny house doesn’t feel tiny at all, cozy perhaps but it gives everything you need and doesn’t have the excess and unused space that often is found in regular houses. The needs in this house are the kitchen, bathroom and bed area. My wants were the reading and relaxing spaces both upstairs, downstairs, and on the porch. Also the pool and hot tub were wants not needs.
