Tiny home packs storage stairs, 2 lofts, tub in 136 sq ft
Julie Olson needed a traveling home for her mobile dog training business. With no architecture training, she drew up plans for exactly what she needed and sent them to Jason Dietz of Molecule Tiny Homes. Over a couple of months he built her home to her specifications: a fold-out porch, storage stairs, 2 lofts (1 for sleeping, 1 for storage or 2 sleeping quarters), a slim closet, and a bathroom with tub, composting toilet, tiny sink and escape window/door for viewing nature. The 136-square-foot home can run completely off grid with rooftop photovoltaic panels, solar batteries, a propane tank and a tankless water heater. Total cost was $45,000, but Dietz says you could bring that down by about half if you built it yourself. Part of the reason small homes on wheels cost more per square foot is because they require structural support to survive on the road. The home was built in Santa Cruz, California and it made its first trip over 3,000 miles to Maine where Olson moved in with her cats and dog to travel and study.

I'm not quite getting this. She needs a tiny home for a mobile dog training business? Exactly how mobile is it?
I don't really think these homes are normally made to be towed all the time like a RV or purpose built trailer. I guess it could be made to withstand the rigors of the road with good engineering and and proper materials.
While I understand the difference in feel and look from a tiny house and a trailer I'm not sure I would buy into this.
But if that's what floats your boat, go for it. -
I have a new name for that particle board shit.

Too expensive. I can live cheaper and better in a motorhome.

One of the best I've seen. Decent stairs. and a loft where the ceiling isn't in your face.

This is my FAVORITE design. Will we every get to meet the woman who designed it and a followup video? Kudos to the Southern Belle's design and the Builder who brought it to fruition.

Such a good design! Only bad thing is that you cant cook

It looks awesome! One question though, where are the washer and dryer? I have seen very few of these video/shows about tiny house living that have actually showed the audience where the washer and dryer are.

how much would it be to make one 1/2 the size and have a hand wench for the deck

what about low country bridges

The woman who designed that house was incredibly smart. If she was running a dog business with it, she probably wants that "fire escape" in the bathroom so that she can bring the dogs in and out of the tub to groom them without running them through the home.
