When the roof is down, the tiny house meets all of the legal height requirements for a vehicle in Australia, allowing it to easily be transported on the roads. Once parked up however, the roof can be lifted up, and a wedge / wall system is installed which is cleverly designed with all the flashings needed to keep the tiny house water tight.

Standing space in the loft helps to make the house feel even more like a home, but it’s only a small part of the beautifully designed home on wheels, which has a wonderful kitchen, comfortable lounge space, very functional bathroom and even a second sleeping loft for Ben and Nat’s daughter Charlie, which is currently in the process of having some additional safety features installed for the toddler.

A love of plants in the home is obvious. Although the family has just moved into the house, it’s already filled with plants which Nat has been tending to for months, getting them ready for move-in day and knowing exactly where each and every one of them would live within the home.With the build of the home now complete, the next phase will see the addition of all the off-the-grid technology, including solar power, solar thermal water heating and a good sized battery system to allow the home to be completely autonomous.
