Extea Cabera (meaning: House Cabera), named by the owners for their Basque heritage, is a beautiful rendition of our Point model.

Built for full-time living, Extea Cabera features a full kitchen with custom shelving, an electric cooktop, and full-sized refrigerator/freezer combo unit.  
As always, our Point model features a full bath, and this home enjoys a custom tiled shower along with its Incinolet incinerating toilet.

This beautiful tiny home, along with all of our Point builds, features the smaller version of our Modern Tiny Living social area, along with all of the storage and comfort that this popular perk provides. We added larger windows to this unit, allowing plenty of light and fresh air. Last but not least, our loft is plenty large for a king-sized bed, so space for snoozing won't be a concern!

Say hello to The Bond, the newest variation of Modern Tiny Living's legendary Kokosing model.

The Bond feels similar to one of our earlier Kokosing builds, Niagara, but features an entirely different color theme and spec within the details. Featuring a full kitchen with oven, full bath, king loft with skylight, and plenty of other little perks, this home was built for full-time tiny house living.

​The Bond enjoys our full-sized, elevated Modern Tiny Living social area, including its comprehensive storage, bed convertability, and space for socializing. The kitchen features a small oven and cooktop, gorgeous concrete countertops (with adjacent desk/work area), stainless appliances, and our Modern Chrome hardware package. Despite the small footprint of a 24 ft. tiny home, The Bond has every amenity you need to make it a travel home, weekend getaway, or full-time residence.

Hey Tiny House family!

Please join us  in welcoming Ojai to the Modern Tiny Living family! Ojai is a gorgeous variation of our Kokosing model, a 24 ft. tiny house on wheels. We built Ojai for the legendary Justin Baldoni, an actor and filmmaker whose most recent book, Man Enough, is a bestseller nationwide.

Justin wanted a tiny house for his family out in California, and he chose the nation's leading custom tiny house builder, Modern Tiny Living, for the job. Ojai was built on our famous Kokosing model, but features some absolutely gorgeous wood accents throughout the home that truly set it off.

Justin was a pleasure to work with and we can't wait to see what adventures he enjoys in his new tiny house! Check out the gallery of Ojai below.

Modern Tiny Living co-founder trent haery interviewed by bankrate on tiny living

12/31/2020

 
Picture
Trent Haery, co-founder of Modern Tiny Living, was recently inteviewed by Bankrate.com about the tiny house industry and we are thrilled to share the story with you here!

Tiny living has certainly continued to grow in interest, popularity and reality since we opened up our doors in 2015, and we are proud to see the evolution and growth of the industry. 

In the the article, Trent tackles topics like zoning, parking, financing, and much more.

Here is a snippet about parking, zoning, and codes:

"Trent Haery, co-founder of tiny home builder Modern Tiny Living, based in Columbus, Ohio, explains that the rules for building a tiny house boil down to two types of regulations:

  • Codes, or how it's built
  • Zoning, or where it's put

State and local regulations may dictate permitting requirements, restrictions on the home’s size and guidelines for construction. Plus, some states, such as California, Colorado, Florida, North Carolina, Oregon and Texas, are more tiny home-friendly than others. By doing this research, you’ll know what you’re allowed to build and where, and how best to go about planning the project.

“The safest bet is always to work directly with the city officials and ask them, as opposed to taking a risk and hiding in your house hoping no one sees you,” Haery says."

Great job to Trent for
representing both Modern Tiny Living and the tiny house industry so well in this article!
