Tiny house boosts living space with motorized deck and spiral staircase
The latest towable dwelling by TruForm Tiny squeezes an impressive amount of living space into a length of just 38 ft (11.5 m). Most notably, the tiny house includes a spiral staircase that provides access to a rooftop terrace, while the ground floor also includes an enclosed porch area and a deck.
The Cascade Mini has a total floorspace of 350 sq ft (32.5 sq m). Visitors enter the home through the main entrance into the kitchen, which occupies the center of the home. This area contains a fridge, a small drawer-style dishwasher, a three-burner propane-powered stove, an oven, a sink and some cabinetry, including a central movable kitchen island.
Adjacent to the kitchen is the living room. This has a sofa, a small coffee table and a fireplace. The living room opens onto the enclosed porch area, bringing daylight into the home and offering a pleasant place to sit. The porch in turn connects to the outdoor deck, which, like Minimaliste’s Nomad, is motorized and can be lowered into position using a switch or raised if it’s time to tow the home somewhere else. The deck has some additional seating and a fire pit.
As mentioned, the Cascade Mini has a rooftop terrace. This is reached by the spiral staircase from outside and includes another small fireplace plus some seating.
