Linda decided to live tiny as she thought it would make sense for her. She didn’t want a mortgage and was not interested in co-living. She wanted a place of her own where she could equally enjoy the beauty of indoors and outdoors. So she started building for herself a completely off-grid tiny house. Her single-level tiny house is fully powered by the sun which adds to its off-grid credentials.
The small-sized dwelling is 33 feet long and 10 feet wide thus providing an ideal indoor living space for a single resident. The house is presently located at a rented property and Linda is happy that she has the liberty of moving her house whenever she wants now or in the future.
The exterior of this single-level DIY tiny house is painted in a soft green color. Linda chose steel cladding she could tender to allow the house to blend with the natural surroundings. The deck adjoining the tiny home provides chances to enjoy the outdoors with a decent seating arrangement. It is covered with a giant parasol, knocking off the heat in summer and providing some shade.
The interior of the tiny house is inviting and cozy. Linda spent a lot of time decorating the inner spaces. The back window was compromised to create space for artwork as that is what the owner preferred. The living room is uplifting with soft colors and comfortable furniture. It is an ideal place where one can unwind or indulge in great conversations with guests.
The couch placed in the living room can be converted into a bed. The window opposite the couch has a blind that Linda uses as a screen to watch movies using a projector at nighttime. There is a coffee table with drawers placed in front of the couch that converts into a full-sized dining table when required. The living room also features a fish tank Linda has brought here from her previous home.
Linda decided to go with the single-level design as she has a long-term plan of living in this tiny home. She wanted ease of accessing the indoor spaces. As there is no loft, the ceiling height is pretty decent giving the house a voluminous look and feel.
The kitchen has a lot of character with white and blue colors used for the cabinetry. The white countertop looks neat and beautiful with a sink, cooktop, and oven integrated into it with ample storage options. Linda customized the kitchen to her short height. There is a fridge toward the left of the kitchen and opposite it are the breakfast bar and chairs all of which are foldable.

The bedroom of this single-level tiny house is spacious too. There is lots of storage for clothes and shoes in the form of sliding cupboards. There is an under-bed storage as well. The window of the bedroom has a mosquito mesh so it can be opened for ventilation without worrying about mosquitoes or other insects. The sliding door in the bedroom opens up into the bathroom of this tiny home.
The bathroom is big and uniquely designed continuing with the characteristic white décor of the house. It features a washing machine and vacuum cleaner just in front of the door. There is even space for some indoor plants and artwork above the washing machine section. A beautiful-looking vanity with baby pink tile work, an oval mirror, and a basin is a great addition to the bathroom with decent storage options below it. There is a full-sized covered rounded fronted shower with shelves for toiletries. Linda chose an incinerating toilet as she liked this type more than a composting toilet.
The single-level tiny house was built for $145,000 but the overall cost, with amenities onboard, pulls it up to about $173,000. It is at the higher end considering most people like to build affordable tiny houses but Linda wanted to customize the house as per her preferences. The overall cost includes what she has invested in solar, deck, and the shed that is built separately to accommodate inverter and batteries.
