The upside-down approach<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Baluchon\u2019s mission is clear: extract as much livable space as possible from their compact designs. The Ell\u00e8bore achieves this by turning the traditional layout on its head. Imagine a house where the bedroom resides downstairs, leaving room for a versatile living area above. It\u2019s like a tiny house doing a handstand.<\/p>\n

Exterior aesthetics<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The Ell\u00e8bore measures a modest 20 feet in length and rests on a sturdy double-axle trailer. Its contemporary exterior features red cedar siding with subtle gray aluminum accents. From the outside, it looks like any other tiny house \u2013 but step inside and you\u2019ll discover its delightful country charm.<\/p>\n

Interior features<\/strong><\/h2>\n

On one side of the tiny house is a small kitchen with a sink, refrigerator\/freezer, microwave, electric mini-oven, gas cooktop and an electric water heater. It also has plenty of shelves, cabinets and a wood-burning stove to keep you toasty.<\/p>\n

Next to the kitchen, you\u2019ll find the bathroom. It\u2019s compact and functional, housing a shower on one side.<\/p>\n

The bedroom is accessed through a sliding door. It\u2019s a cozy sleeping nook with a low-beam ceiling. The downstairs location and petite doorway might evoke a touch of claustrophobia, but it serves its purpose well.<\/p>\n
