Something interesting that has been seen worldwide recently is a move toward smaller spaces. It wasn’t all that long ago that the battle cry for most families was bigger and bigger but now, but most families are downsizing because of the economy or simply because they want more time to focus on what is important.
Although we’ve seen a lot of tiny homes in our day, we feel that this home is almost a perfect example of what can be done in a small space. It was built for that purpose and the farmhouse roots that can be seen throughout the home give it an appeal that is quite amazing.
One of the interesting features about this tiny home is the front porch. Any good farm home is going to have a large front porch where you can sit outside and watch the world go by. This tiny farm home is no different and it even includes a brick walkway and gas lanterns to provide perfection in entryways.
Another factor that goes into making a small home work well is to have plenty of natural light. The only way to do this is through windows, and this tiny home is certainly not short on windowpanes. In every room, light tends to flood in from every angle and it makes the space feel much more open. Vaulted ceilings also add a depth to the room.
Reclaimed wood floors can be found in the bedroom and it contrasts quite nicely with the white walls. Throughout the home a rustic feel can be found but this is especially true in the bedroom, including the furniture and bedding. It seems like a nice place to take a nap.
The living space of this functional home does not seem so little after all. There is an open layout and it is perfect for entertaining several guests. In addition, the sofa opens up into a bed, making it perfect for having overnight guests as well.
The vaulted ceilings can be found throughout the home and they also carry into the kitchen as well. Although the kitchen may be smaller than what you would find in a standard home, it still has room for a full-size dishwasher, a small refrigerator, microwave and even a toaster oven. The centerpiece of the kitchen is a farmhouse sink that is easily accessible in the island.
Working our way into the bathroom, it certainly is an area of the home that has a lot to offer as well. There’s plenty of storage space and the dark porcelain flooring looks great against the white woodwork.
This farmhouse is not only functional, it is quite charming and would make the perfect home for an individual or even a small family.
The design of this tiny farm home is so unique that it almost invites you to come live there. Even if you decide that it is not for you full-time, it still offers a comfortable getaway for those who love the country.
