480 sq foot, 1 bed/1 bath

Two key ingredients can transform a tiny home from making you feel like a sardine into inspiring you to host that summer barbecue you’ve always dreamed of: good layout, and outdoor living areas.

That’s why this 480 square foot Fairview cottage (nicknamed “The Puffin”) feels curiously spacious. Details like kitchen built-ins and an upstairs sleeping loft elevate this would-be cramped cottage to an open and inviting home fit for welcoming friends and family. Generous windows brighten the space and bring the outdoors in. To take advantage of our many seasons of good weather here in Western NC, ample outdoor living space includes a covered front porch and a large wraparound deck.
