This tiny home leans into its seaside inspiration with an airy, relaxed aesthetic and a layout designed for real-life comfort. Inside, you’ll find all the essentials: a functional kitchen, a full bathroom, and a standing-height bedroom loft that feels more like a cozy retreat than a cramped nook. Clever storage solutions keep everything tidy, so the space stays calm and clutter-free.
The Beachcomber is also deceivingly spacious, measuring 38 feet by 10 feet, with a maximum height of 13.5 feet, for a total of 390 square feet of living space. Whether you’re an individual or a couple, the ease with which you can live a regular life in this house on wheels will surprise you.
Best of all, this tiny home is available at various price points to support a range of budgets. The turnkey version is NOAH-certified, fully furnished, and move-in ready for $185,000. To purchase it with a completed interior but without non-essential furnishings and appliances, it’s $169,200. For only the pre-NOAH-certified shell, allowing you to finish the interior yourself, it’s $78,650.

This vibrant blue gooseneck-style tiny home features metal and board-and-batten siding with striking white windows. No matter where you set it up – be it at the beach or in an urban area – it can’t help but turn heads.
Access to The Beachcomber is via a convenient outdoor step and through a single white door into the kitchen. Here, you’ll start experiencing the 390 square feet of functional living space.
Just when you think you’re leaving the vibrant blue exterior behind, you’ll find a gorgeous blue kitchen that ties the look together. The rich blue cabinetry has been paired with quartz countertops and warm engineered hardwood flooring. The painted board-and-batten walls offer your eyes relief before they’re drawn to the stained tongue-and-groove knotty pine ceiling.
The kitchen is exceptionally well-equipped for everyday meal preparation. There are plenty of cabinets, drawers, and open shelves for storage, as well as bench space for within-reach essentials. There is also a convenient gas range, an easy-care stainless-steel basin with a pull-down faucet, and a generous 10-cubic-foot refrigerator. The icing on the cake is the large pantry storage.
Dining in The Beachcomber is simple and functional. A compact two-person dining set fits neatly into the kitchen corner, and large windows provide plenty of natural light for everyday meals.
The gorgeous blue splashback behind the gas stovetop ties in with the blue cabinetry, further enhancing the coastal vibes.
The designers at Backcountry Tiny Homes made storage a primary consideration during this build. Alongside a storage loft, there are also tip-out bins in the entryway for everyday essentials. Painted white, they blend into the walls and take up limited functional space.
The spacious, comfortable living area remains warm year-round, thanks to the mini-split heating and cooling unit. Adding ambience and supplementing the heat is the gas fireplace. There is also an electric bathroom heater. With R-38 insulation in the roof, R-15 in the walls, and R-35 under the floor, you can stay warm and comfortable through seasonal changes.
A dividing wall in the kitchen transforms the living area into its own private and intimate relaxation haven. There’s plenty of space for a two-seater sofa, décor, and your own TV.
If you own a cat, Backcountry Tiny Homes will happily accommodate it with optional upgrades, including elevated cat walks and a vented litterbox area with cat door access.

For anyone who values organisation and order, the large pantry will be a highlight in The Beachcomber. It can even come with a cat door for access to the optional vented litterbox area. Alongside boasting an abundance of storage space, it’s also home to a vented washer/dryer combo.
The standing bedroom loft features the same gorgeous engineered hardwood flooring and stained tongue-and-groove knotty pine ceiling as the rest of the home. Like the main living area, it also has dimmable LED ceiling lights and wall sconces.
For easy temperature regulation, the bedroom has its own mini-split heating and cooling unit, as well as two windows to provide a cross-breeze.
The king-size mattress sits on a convenient storage base, with pull-out drawers accessible from the sides. There is also enough room next to the bed for a nightstand with storage.
A dividing wall in the bedroom is a safety measure while also providing privacy from the main living area.
Whether you need space for work or play, you’ll find a desk in the corner of the room. Even when you’re sitting or standing, you’ll enjoy not feeling cramped or crowded thanks to the four-foot-11-inch to six-foot-six-inch headspace.
If you need somewhere to relax or additional storage space, there is a convenient storage/relaxation loft adjacent to the desk area.
A gorgeous bathroom with a coastal color scheme lies adjacent to the living area, below the bedroom loft. It has a plumbed toilet with a hot water connection for a future bidet. Off-grid appliances are optional.
The bathroom is well-planned and luxurious. The color scheme is warm and fresh, and it pairs well with the gorgeous shower, featuring porcelain tile walls, a handheld shower head, a sliding door, and a generous 48-inch pan.
You’ll also be impressed by the medium-sized sink vanity with cabinet storage, as well as the recessed medicine cabinet for even more storage.
