This Beautiful Single-Story Tiny Home Boasts a Functional Railroad-Style Layout

There are plenty of one-story tiny homes on wheels on the market, but few look and feel as sophisticated and cozy as the Florida model. Created for upscale tiny living, this stunning tiny house uses quality materials, eye-pleasing aesthetics, and sleek finishes to offer homeowners luxury and convenience at an affordable price.

The Florida compact dwelling is the very first model created by Gadding Tiny Homes, a family-owned company that aims to create tiny houses that effortlessly combine smart design and cozy living. In a world where the dream of homeownership is becoming increasingly expensive and less attainable, the owners of this Florida-based firm want to help more people realize their seemingly elusive dream with this streamlined design that is available for just $49,000.

This beautiful tiny with a traditional home-like styling, a covered porch, and a unique interior layout with a walk-through bedroom is a gem among small dwellings. It offers a total of 298 square feet (nearly 28 square meters) of living space, but despite its compact footprint, it packs plenty of thoughtful features that enhance its functionality.

In terms of dimensions, this home is 35 feet (10.6 meters) long and 8.5 feet (2.6 meters) wide, which seems quite fitting for a single-level layout, as it is essential to have enough length to play with in order to incorporate all the necessary amenities for comfortable living on one floor.

Built on a double-axle trailer, Florida boasts a charming exterior with a combination of vertical white timber siding and horizontal vinyl lap siding, complemented by black trim all around. The roof is gabled and covered with durable metal. The covered porch is one of the standout features of this design and is spacious enough (7 feet) to fit a few chairs where you can relax and take in uninhibited views of the surroundings. It's a space that inspires you to spend as much time as possible outside and connect more deeply with nature.

A wide sliding glass door brings the outdoors in, making the interior seem larger than it actually is. Usually, tinies with single-floor layouts embrace open living, with bedrooms that double as lounging space during the day, but the Florida design is long enough to offer separation between living areas. It features a railroad apartment-style layout with succeeding rooms that flow into one another without hallways, so you have to walk through a living space to get to another as if moving through the cars of a train.

Florida's floorplan includes an open-plan living room and kitchen area right as you enter, followed by a private walk-through bedroom and a separate bathroom at the end, which makes it suitable for an individual or a couple looking for a simpler way of life.

The kitchen and living area is smartly designed to make the most of the available space while still looking stylish and cozy. Two plush armchairs coupled with matching footstools and a small side table make up the lounge. The whole setup is strategically placed next to large windows and the entrance door, which allow plenty of natural light inside.

The adjacent kitchen offers a minimalist and clutter-free space to cook your favorite foods, but it stands out with its understated elegance highlighted by butcher block counters and robin egg cabinets accented with pops of silver in the handles. In terms of appliances, it comes equipped with a residential-size refrigerator and freezer, a large black sink, and a two-burner cooktop. There is also space for a washer/dryer unit, and a TV mounted on the wall offers entertainment for those spending time in this social area of the tiny house.

A barn-style door leads to the more private areas of the house - the bedroom and en-suite bathroom. The walk-through bedroom is intimate and cozy, and besides a comfortable queen-size bed, it also offers decent storage space for clothes and other personal belongings courtesy of a closet and under-bed storage.

The bathroom at the end of the house is also designed with privacy and functionality in mind. It is decently sized for a tiny home and includes a vanity sink, a toilet, and a large tiled shower. A small storage loft can be found above the bathroom.

Having everything you need for comfortable living on the same level makes the Florida tiny accessible for people of all ages. Though there is formal separation between areas inside the house, each room effortlessly flows into the other, allowing an easy transition from one space to another.

For just $49,000, the Florida tiny house shows that you don't necessarily have to pay a premium price to get a high-quality, well-equipped home for upscale tiny living.
