VIDEO DESCRIPTION:
This episode follows Rebecca as she starts over in a thoughtfully designed tiny home she calls “Teeny.” After a pivotal life event in early 2020, she committed to downsizing, self-designing the layout with Many Mansions Tiny Home Builders and moving in by October 2020. For anyone exploring a smaller, simpler life—especially solo downsizers who still want real storage, a cook’s kitchen, laundry, and a soak-worthy tub—this tour shows how a tiny house can feel calm, capable, and truly like home.
What viewers will learn
How to downsize without deprivation: Rebecca went from multiple closets to a single well-planned wardrobe and says the more she let go, the happier she felt.
Storage that actually works in daily life: Pull-out pantry, lift-top coffee table, couch with hidden storage, full closet with charging outlet, bathroom linen closet, baskets, and under-appliance cubbies.
A cook’s tiny kitchen: Big sink (hand-washing by choice), reverse-osmosis water filtration under the sink (counter space preserved), garbage disposal, propane range/oven, microwave cubby, apartment-size fridge/freezer elevated over the wheel well with a bonus shoe/beach-gear “basement.”
Stairs that do double duty: Custom, chair-height first step for comfortable seating, slide-out work surface, integrated cat box that looks built-in, measured to the inch.
Light, privacy, and calm: Huge picture windows bring the outside in; top-down/bottom-up shades add privacy without closing in the space.
Real laundry + real bath: Compact stackable washer/dryer, flushing toilet tied to sewer, and a soaker tub/shower—rare in tiny homes.
Year-round comfort in Florida: Mitsubishi mini-split with dehumidify mode for humid days; ventilation habits and plant-friendly light throughout.
Lifestyle fit for long-term living: A standing invitation to read, craft, host, and relax—secondary loft fits a guest bed (claimed by her cat), primary loft is 11' long with a queen bed and headroom to sit up.
Who this video is for
Downsizers seeking low-maintenance comfort without giving up real cooking, laundry, or a bathtub.
Solo homeowners or couples who want big-window light, privacy on demand, and an airy, plant-friendly interior.
Pet owners who need clever, discreet solutions (hidden litter, protected trash, easy-clean surfaces).
Viewers comparing travel-friendly vs. park-in-place tiny homes (this build sits low for easy entry and long stays).
Design highlights to copy
Pull-out pantry at the stair run for max vertical storage.
RO filtration instead of counter units to save workspace and plastic waste.
Wheel-well plinth under the fridge to gain a stealth storage bay.
Lift-top coffee table for dining/desk duties without a permanent footprint.
Top-down/bottom-up shades on large windows to keep daylight while blocking sightlines.
Bathroom hooks + full-height storage to solve the “where do towels go?” problem day one.
Exterior shed for mechanicals (propane water heater) and tidy utility access.
Exterior & siting notes
Rebecca’s home sits lower to the ground for easier step-in access. Final plumbing was completed on-site underneath after delivery; if/when she relocates, those utility runs would be disconnected first. She plans to remain parked long-term and eventually place the home on her own land. Outdoor living includes a custom wrap-around stair, matching planter boxes, edible herbs/veggies, and flowering vines—proof that a tiny footprint can still support a big garden vibe.
Rebecca’s tiny-living mindset
Minimalism as a habit: buy intentionally, organize often, and keep surfaces clear.
Entertaining that flexes: the lift-up dining table seats up to six when needed, while the everyday layout stays open for reading, yoga, or movie nights.
Pets welcome: the “cat loft” and hidden litter step keep daily life serene and odor-controlled.
Peace first: the home was designed to feel like a reset—quiet, bright, and manageable.
