Baluchon's mission is clear. It's about extracting as much livable space as possible from a compact design. El Ball achieved this by turning the traditional layout on its head. Imagine a home with a bedroom downstairs, leaving space for a versatile living area above. It's like a small house standing on end.
Ellebor is a modest 20 feet long and rides on a sturdy twin-axle trailer. The contemporary look features red cedar siding and subtle gray aluminum accents. From the outside it looks like an ordinary little house, but step inside and you'll discover its delightful country charm.

On one side of the tiny house is a small kitchen with a sink, refrigerator/freezer, microwave, electric mini oven, gas stove, and electric water heater. Plenty of shelving, cabinets and a wood burning stove also make for a comfortable stay.

Next to the kitchen is the bathroom. With a shower on one side, it is compact and functional.
Opposite the bathroom is the toilet (no sink). Practicality takes precedence here.
Beyond the kitchen is the bedroom.
The bedroom is accessed through a sliding door. This is a cozy bedroom with a low beamed ceiling. The downstairs location and small doorway may be claustrophobic, but it serves its purpose well.

To reach the second floor, guests must climb a staircase with integrated storage. Stairs can be neatly stored away when not needed.
Suddenly you are upstairs in the living room. Headroom is generous, and large windows flood the space with natural light. The sofa doubles as a comfortable bed and sleeps up to 2 people.
Baluchon didn't stop there, managing to fit into a small home office area with a desk. Productivity and relaxation come together.
Above the bathroom area, there is a secondary storage loft providing additional space for storing your belongings. After all, every nook and cranny is important in a tiny house.
You would think you would pay a fraction of the price for a small house. Not so much about this. Baluchon models typically start around $91,000.
