Coming back to watch a 2nd time. I've seen some amazing tiny houses, but so far, this one has a character that I haven't found in others. A unique beauty.
There's something special about having that little bit of extra space in the center since the cabin in more square than a tiny home built on a trailer.
This is a very elegant and well-designed space, with all the visual features working together for a wonderfully cohesive rustic but functional look. The one thing that I noticed that would make me uncomfortable is the lack of a more secure-feeling protective edge beside the bed in the loft. I love the current look, but for me to sleep there I would need something more substantial-feeling - if only a partial wall of plexiglass in a wooden frame, higher than the current rope frame. How beautifully this is nestled in a backyard space - right in Toronto!
Really neat little spot. I particularly like the wooden interior which provides a distinctly rustic look and feel to it. The use of space is also really neat, and living there must be just awesome. I think that a relatively simple way to expel heat in the loft would be to put a louvred extractor fan at one of the gable ends... Louvred to ensure that it remains closed when not needed or in use. Great Little place and I love it ❤️😄
I love this cabin. it’s so cozy. I wish we could have gotten to see it when he still lived in it. I always enjoy more when the people are living in the homes we see. 🙂 love the videos guys!
@@muyemiakinsete1496 Yes- knowing it is a B&B or something like that changes my perception of such spaces. As my husband and I have already built one tiny home (as a camper- too small to live in legally) and are contemplating building another larger, more permanent one I do prefer those videos wherein the owner is sharing the reality of the day-to-day life in the space he/she has built.
Great tour! You are really the best showing these Tiny spaces, especially mentioning each and every detail 🤓 Wonderful woodwork, functionality and home feel. This place is a gem, bravo to the owner 👏🏻
Have been watching your videos for many many years. Probably around 8 years ? Very happy to see you guys are doing better and better and I must say the tiny houses featured in your channel are always the best !
I think this cabin is my favorite so far… First of all, it’s made out of a horse barn I am a horse owner, lol❣️ I really love the whole layout. I thought it was very thoughtful and very clever. I especially love the sliding barn door! The stacked washer and dryer and basically a walk-in closet, fantastic idea💯💚👍🙏☮️
Complete, high quality, well thought out, old country charm and aesthetics, right next to coffee shop and market. I wonder how well it’s insulated against sound.
This is Amazing and I would love to rent a place like this to live instead of your typical apt... My goodness it's so charming and perfect! Kudos to the man who rebuilt this.
Gorgeous place to stay in the middle of downtown. All details are respectful of the history of the place and very well though. Love the inviting couch and this friendly stove. The kitchen is well organized and the dishwasher is a top! All this wood around Gide such a nice feeling. Sure you don’t have the impression to be right downtown. I am not so sure about the rope very close to the bed that doesn’t give much protection when you wake up….from a nightmare! I would like to stay there anyway and enjoy the patio during summer. Thanks for this nice discovery!
I want one like this,been considering a tiny home,main worry...heat,I always said when I get one, must be with wood burning stove,/fireplace etc, & plenty of hot water ♓👏😉
A nice tiny home. Almost looks like one of those CUTEBEE scale model kits you can build. I think a skylight would add a bit of airiness and natural warmth to the space. 👌
This is absolutely beautiful 😍. I would love to live in this. The simple life in a beautiful little log home. Now that’s living the good life. I’m in love 🥰.
beautifull work even if i would change some points it is a lovely place. it looks inside so much greater than the shown outside views. i would chance: pipe instead the rope, change the concrete countertops with some light stone
My house used to be a barn and has the original ladder, horse stables, we have 4levels but only use 3 . We have original chains n hooks also . My house is pretty unique
A very lovely redone barn! I am surprised that an egress was not required in the loft? I had to have this done in my loft due to having a wood stove within city limits in US even though my home was detached from other homes. I had to do this as required but also realized that with no window in a loft it was a safety feature should one have a fire regardless of wood stove or other fire hazard.
Love it. I would want a double sink n island. Unfortunately, the stairs wouldn't work for me. I'm disabled n old. I'd be up n down for the restroom several times at nite. If it had a downstairs bedroom, this would be ideal. I do love the look of this n the kitchen. A tub would be ideal also.
The only thing I would change would be the beam over the bed. As it is right now, it's a definite head-banger. I would take it out and put a much smaller beam there. That way you keep the rustic look, but it's not a hazard.
Funny, when i saw that i shared your feelings as a first impression, then i remembered my cabin. A boyfriend/handyman thought the ceiling ties, connecting the two halves of the ceiling (perpendicular to the ridge line, like this piece of wood), were obnoxious, so he took out every other one. Instead of every 2', i had one every 4'. Then came another carpenter/handyman. He assured me we could do without any at all, since it was a small cabin, we don't have any snow load where i live, etc. So he took out the remaining ceiling ties and sheetrocked over the entire inside of the roof. Looked great. Then later, having some unrelated roof-leak issues, the roofer casually mentioned that the house was pulling apart, and that below the tarpaper and composite roofing, there was a 1-inch gap between the ridge beam and the rafters! Silly me, for letting those ceiling ties go! Anyway, i think the designer of this renovated stable has thought it through carefully, and i bet if he considered that one piece of wood unnecessary, he would have gotten rid of it-- in favor of aesthetics and headroom comfort-- in a jiffy. Instead, in my opinion he wisely chose to retain it so as not to run into the problem i have.
Very neat. My barn in the back yard is an old timber frame blacksmith's shop - 18' by 28' inside. The size would be like two tiny houses side by side - not so tiny. The only thing stopping me is the plumbing. We have town water but we are on septic bed. How to get that flush toilet???
I don't know what a "septic bed" is but a septic system IS for flushing toilets. The waste is contained in a holding tank that either leaches out slowly into a special field whereby the waste is slowly neutralized or simply held until full and then it gets pumped out by a service pump truck.
@@LaLadybug2011 Septic system and septic bed are the same thing. The problem is that municipalities have tight control of how many fixtures you can add without expanding the system. On a small lot where there is no room to expand the existing septic bed, you are pretty-much stuck. So developing our old barn into useable living space is pretty-much a "pipe dream" ( oh forgive me!)
Just charming to be sure. My only suggestions are ditch the chandelier, dishwasher seems an unnecessary waste of valuable space, and would rather have pipe railing in place of the rope, upstairs.
