- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 2 มิ.ย. 2024
- This couple are living the downsizing dream! After selling their four bedroom home, Amelia and Dan have moved into a spectacular tiny house in the country with a beautiful river and forest on their doorstep.
Their tiny home is beautifully crafted, light and spacious with duel lofts and ample space for the couple, who enjoy having more free time to enjoy creative projects. Bibliophiles will also really appreciate all the hiding spots for books around the home, while movie lovers will enjoy the incredible entertainment loft!
We hope you enjoy the tour of this beautiful tiny home in the country.

Amelia and Dan have built themselves such a beautiful home and what a parking space they have found too! Imagine being able to walk out of your home and right to a spot by the river like that. We hope you enjoy the tour! Thanks for watching and supporting our channel! With love, Bryce & Rasa
I miss your posts :)
Thanks Bryce and Rasa.
My partner and I are currently planning our tiny home. Hopefully we'll be on the show soon!
This is my goal before I turn 35
I wonder why they want to build again? Also, I was so used to hearing really low prices for tiny houses where the people did a lot of diy, that hearing $170,000 sounds so high now! Compared to traditionally built houses, it’s still so low, but I really feel for young people with lower incomes, or single moms, school teachers, etc.
So happy to see another new video...thank u for doing this
We've made these videos into a drinking game. Take a shot every time Bryce says: can we take a look inside, I love what you've done with this place, I'm able go stand up in here...
LOL 🤣🤣🤣 too early to be drunk.
You got alcohol poisoning yet?
Don’t forget “this is lovely”
😂🤣 love it!!
Or fair enough 😜
I love how respectful Bryce is every time he enters the home of another person or couple. Also admire the way he always manages to appreciate & mention special, beautiful, or utilitarian aspects of every home he enters, no matter how elaborate & custom built or how simple & basic each tiny home is. Bryce's open mindedness and open heart allow each home and each home owner to shine & we as viewers get the BEST tour in every single podcast. Thank you for your appreciative, thoughtful style Bryce- you are outstanding !⭐️⭐️⭐️
This/ he is the reason why "Living Big In A Tiny House" is my favorite tiny house channel :)
Absolutely agree👍👍
Total class, yes.
You said it best! Bryce and Rasa are kind hearted people that respect what people have done and to protect our land and environment. Down to earth people being interviewed by amazing couple.😊❤
Yes! THIS!
Thank you Bryce and Rasa ❤️
I would love to see a follow-up to some of these videos say 3 to 5 years after someone has lived in their home. I wonder if anybody has any regrets, things they'd do differently, or if anyone's feeling a little claustrophobic? 😱
I'm up for 'follow ups' too with answers to your questions...
I Mona, I AM not in the videos, but i've been living in a Tiny 2,5mx7mx4m for almost 2 years now...so far...no regrets and I Often stop and think how lucky and grateful I am 🙂 this is not a home, its a life Style! 🌷
I've often wondered about families with small children tucked into small spaces. How are they doing a few years later when the kids themselves take up more space and come to an age where they want some privacy. Does the family end up going back to a regular size home? Or do they add on to their tiny home?
@@neidesofiaalmeida3726 👋 thank you 😁
@@violetvotes2024 I have to admit, I wouldn't even consider a tiny home if I had children or wanted to start a family of my own. But for those that are living the tiny home lifestyle with children I would be interested to see how they manage to stay sane especially after a few years.
My sister in law, I’ve been here a couple of times and it’s absolutely incredible!
Is she a real wit ch?
Hello Karen how are you doing!!
@karenlyon6832 they talk about maybe selling their tiny in a few years, do you know if they will?
You know you have a great tiny house when you get the Bryce-can-stand-in-the-sleeping-loft stamp of approval.
Hello Christina how are you doing!!
Thats a very comfortable looking house, easy on the eyes as well. The land around is a bonus.
I agree with you.
Nice to see pets sharing the tiny house.
I loved this design! It seems like a perfect use of space and they have everything! I nice big bathroom, big open kitchen, a real sofa, real stairs, and a 2nd loft that serves many purposes. I loved the laundry and closet area too. And finally someone with lots of books! :) I thought it was really nice that you showed so much of their personality. My dream would be a partner that likes to cook and has a hobby that gives me time to read quietly... Go Amelia! Haha!
EVERYTIME I watch, I think to myself, wow, how amazingly edited. So easy on the eyes and the mind. Thank you so much for your beautiful work! This tiny is gorgeous, too!
I love that too their wardrobe is beside the bathroom and laundry instead of squeezed into the bedroom… just makes so much sense!
after 57 years in the house they lived & raised the 4 of us; my parents are having to downsize their lives to a travel trailer on a property dad bought 40 years ago but never got to move to. peeling back layers to dress up the old place exposes the wear that we put there. some things make us smile. some we cry. if y'all watching this wonderful series don't mind saying a prayer for all the older folks out there having to go through this, could y'all please offer up a little prayer for joy & comfort to all of them...
The strange thing for me to wrap my brain around is that my parents have a different phone number after 62 years! I think they sorted for about 3 years lol.
@@joantrotter3005 mom & dad are on their 3rd & sometimes i catch myself dailing that first one...
I'm sorry your parents and you children (grown I know, but you'll always be one of "the kids, trust me.") are having to go through this. It sounds like it wasn't their idea or dream for this to happen. I will say a prayer for them and you!
New Zealand is so far ahead of the U.K. when it comes to tiny house living….. the planning laws in the U.K. are so draconian, they don’t get it at all! Such a shame when it’s such a good option for so many reasons, especially considering the huge lack of affordable housing right now
My partner and I live in the south of England and thinking of a tiny home. Housing pricing is so expensive 🙄
Same in here Ireland, you rather get permission to build a big, ugly concrete building with tons of plastic and more nasties, than building a small, wooden and sustainable „sanctuary“.
Totally agree! We live in Scotland and I'm looking for years... so hard 😪 I really want a tiny house but seems impossible
Yes indeed. The UK planning laws are in the dark ages. Local authorities and the government wants to shovel everyone into dystopian sardine tin poor housing in marginal brown field sites, and they are STILL too expensive. Apart from obvious areas of valued natural beauty we need to relax planning laws and stop the exponential rise in property prices by taxing second homes, build GENUINELY affordable housing and lift the ridiculous restrictions on people who simply wish to live in efficient homes largely where they wish. Planning laws are nearly always exploited by the rich to preserve their exclusive access to pleasant places solely through buying power.
@@missglenellen they love a good old over consumption. 🤦🏽♂️
Love this house and this couple. Doggo is a little cutie.
At first I fell in love with the exterior of this home and then the comment of plants, crystals and books, noticing a similar style to myself...I WANT THIS HOME! and to be their bestie 😂❤
Adore the witchy vibe of this place with all the images of the moon, the crystals, magical themed books and tarot decks. All the plants inside really make it a welcoming space!
OK, I'm 5' 3" so now I know what I would look like standing next to Bryce! ;o) I love your all-black wardrobes. I would love to do that but have so many (colorful) clothes already; it will take forever until everything wears out. I love the black house and how neat everything is outside. Clearly esthetics are important to both of you. I appreciate that! I guess I should start my list of "things I need in my tiny". Two lofts for sure, and freestanding furniture. To my eye it makes a big difference to have a real sofa, table and chairs. I can picture a substantial deck giving you even more living space when the weather is good. Regards from Indiana!
These people and their home was such a vibe. Witchy aesthetic 😍
I love how calm and content they are in their tiny house. I could relate so much to the way they described visiting the city and being done with all the people within two hours. It's an absolute dream to live like this! Especially with all the books and plants, the animals and the wonderful land, it's really cozy and I can see how it would boost someone's creativity living there.
I love the layout of this tiny home: how the bathroom is away from the kitchen, great design.
Their wardrobes are just goth heaven!
They have plants, that's nice. Oh they also have crystals, fascinating. (opened the storage under sofa) okay, you know what's up when you know what's up.✨🖤🎑
This is a BEAUTIFUL tiny Home. 💙 Sofa
Love All the GREEN PLANTS 🌿 🪴 📚
🚿 🛀 Bathroom is 👍
Wish you the best with your little Sanctuary ❤️
Wow, this is probably my favorite design! I also can't live without books and always get frustrated seeing no books (or hardly any) around! Also, I love cooking, but I always find the kitchens so disproportionate, but this one is absolutely perfect and also has a REAL table! I also love the extra loft space and all the storage. Good done! ❤
It’s a great home, extremely well done. This video was a peaceful pleasure, also extremely well done, Bryce and Rasa.
The extra 1 1/2 feet from 8 1/2 to 10 feet is just worth it if you can swing it.
The steps to the bedroom are fabulous!
And the extra room for the bathroom is so helpful.
I like everything about this house.
I would put the office in the game room. To keep the desk out. Lots of great choices though.
Very much agree on the width. 8.5 feet makes it feel like a tunnel, not homey. I lived in an apt that was narrow in the middle, to the point where we could sit on the couch and put our feet up on the bookcases opposite. OK for a year or two, claustrophobic after a while.
The best comment is that they hadn't been on holiday since they have moved in, cos they feel like they are on holiday already. That's a great way to live, something to aim for. Holidays are a way of escaping your life for a week or two, imagine never feeling you HAVE to do that
This is just stunning! This couple found the most beautiful place on earth to build their dream home. I want to dip my toes in that river.
Ahh, the serenity.
Such a calm couple and a beautiful home.
I adore that sofa bed upstairs, it looks so comfy.
всё ужасно дом черный хозяева страшные вещи на них и в шкафу все черные она на ведьму похожа у них нет детей и внуков одна нещасная собака я не сторонник минимализма всё ужасно если люди лезут на лежачее место где не разогнешься и существуют в маленькой черной коробочке как гроб
I totally looove the fact that the kitchen is not next to the bathroom
This seems to be nearly identical to Helen's home in "Young Woman's Incredible Tiny Forever Home" from 3 years ago - right down to the plants and the big blue corner couch. Gotta be the same builder.
I really like that one, but I do like the window in the living room in this one. I like the pantry in the previous one better. But as they are so similar, I like them both. I am surprised that Bryce made NO reference to the previous one.
IT does, but I loved Helen's home and two others. One day when I will start my own tiny home I'll definitly use Helen's home as my main idea.
This is what I thought too. Also the bedroom has the wall. Hers was open. I feel even though I liked the idea of why they did this to me feels a bit to inclosed.
Don't know why Bryce never gives a shout-out to the builders. They both appear to be the Pohutukawa model by Tiny House Builders in New Zealand.
@@bartholomewcubbins9723 Think because what sets it apart from products by companies like Boxabl or Nestron that mass produce tiny houses , is the idea that its custom built rather than kit produced.
Helen's was my first LBIATH episode, so that was one of the more memorable ones for me.
Even the dog looks peaceful lol
I love watching your videos. Came across your channel in 2021, in the middle of Covid, as a medical worker, away from everyone who was dear to me. Your channel and beautiful vibe helped me get through it all. I now have plans for my own tiny home one day.
Thank you ❤️
Long time viewer first time commenter. Thanks Bryce and Rasa (and of course Dan and Amelia for letting us view your wonderful home). Bryce and Rasa your channel is my no 1 channel on You Tube and my 8 year old son loves it too and has converted a few of his friends over to your channel too! Bryce you are such a wonderful bloke and Rasa, even though you advised in a earlier episode that you had no Video Production skills I must say that you have a fantastic eye for visual appeal. Thank you both so much for continuing to bring us your take on the Tiny Home movement.
Just here for the cute doggo.
Also love how the two of them just repeate each other's words. So in sync.
Love the enclosed bedroom with windows front, left, and right! And yay to all the books!!! ❤📚🪴⭐🌙
I can’t find one thing I would change in this home, it’s perfect.
Started following this channel when the follower count wasn't even 200k. And now it's 4M! So proud of this channel. ❤️❤️❤️
“I do all the cooking….I like to come home from work, start cooking …de stress” 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌 Dan
The design & layout of this tiny house is so well thought out. Every room is roomy. If that makes sense. Lol! It has lots of cabinets & storage. Clear open spacious pathways throughout. Feels as if no downsizing required. Love it!
Beautifully done up & ĺove how peaceful it is. The dog is such a cutie too!
Hey sherry how are you doing today?
What a lovely witchy home, calming and enchanting.
My goodness, the way the talk is so enticing and calming. ☺
I think this one might be my new favourite. I really so happy for these two having found such an idyllic home.
The view from above is beautiful, Rasa is a badass on dem cameras. Lovely home, beautiful space, beautiful view, cute dog ❤️
You're blessed to be living in such a beautiful country!
This home was such a joy to visit and to hear about, with so many beautiful and interesting aspects in the home. Love the couple, too - they were interesting as well! You did a great job (as always) of showcasing their wonderful home and the people who reside there, Bryce and Rasa. Thank you so much for what you both do!
💙 the folding table... finally a tiny 🏘️ with 2 lofts, 👍👍
I love the black exterior, the plants, the little coffin shelves with the crystals, it's just amazing! Like a spooky tiny house haha. If one day I get my own tiny house I want to decorate like it's Halloween 24/7
I like the kitchen is across end. Leaves more living room and room for a real small table. Not just stool to topple on.
I am finally in my tiny home. It is better than I dreamed!!!
Wow, what a gorgeous home, on such a stunning parking spot. I hope Dan and Amelia don’t have to move too far away when they find their own piece of paradise. Wishing them all the best for the future. ❤️🏴❤️
This home is so beautiful, spacious-feeling and is decorated so lovely.I like all of the space saving ideas.Really cool couple too.
Thanks!
Beautiful comfortable, homely home… Love the shape of the sofa… ❤
Thanks, Bryce! Thanks, Rasa! Thanks, Amelia! Thanks, Dan! 🏡

this home!!!!!!!
One of my favourites!!!!
Also THAT COUCH is amazing.
Hi Brenda how are you doing?
It is a beautiful home and a really beautiful location. The doggo is super cute too.
What a lovely peaceful and tranquil home. I wish them many years of happiness living there.
A fabulous living spot indeed and within walking distance to a beautiful river. My kind of life.
They are a special couple, I noticed that their wardrobe is almost all black in the wardrobe 😊
A beautiful and well-divided, essential, elegant space.
the scenery around is wonderful and they even have a creek! Perfect. There is definitely an atmosphere of peace inside the house and outside.
I hope that they will add a patio out front.
The way I’m such a fan of this channel, I can tell their house is similar to another house I first saw on the channel. I love this model of house so much. The space is just right. For single people and couples. This house is gorgeous
my favorite couple. beautiful home . beautiful use of space
Thanks a lot. Because of you I now have a tiny house. Not with wheels though. In my country, trailer living is not that common. My tiny house is built on the extra backyard 5m x 7 m lot of my daughter. Need my alone time too. It has two floors; first floor is my bedroom complete with a cute bathroom ; second floor is terrace designed with sink and my six seater dining table and a sofa bed between my houseplants. And the most cherished part of the upstairs, my garden. Im a senior grandma of two wonderful grandkids with autism level spectrum and they are just so thrilled with my tiny house.
I think this is my favorite tiny house yet. It doesn't feel like anything was compromised. It's so efficient and cozy.
It is amazing how powerful and creative human beings are. The couple embraces these virtues as shown by their surroundings.
Thank you Rasa and Bryce for your dedicated efforts to deliver professional content while promoting the Tiny House Movement. 🙏
delightfully witchy little tiny home. I love the aesthetic.
Love the bags of books. My biggest fear of tiny living is not having room for my books.
Every tiny house I’ve seen myself living into had this very same layout, or a small variation of it. It’s just a dream that I keep looking forward to. It’s practical, with separated spaces and with barely any compromises. And this one in particular is stunning ❤
Keep thinking positive and manifesting.
This is a very nice tiny home, I know it would defeat the purpose but I would maybe want two stuck together.
Yes, the word sanctuary stuck me, she is so right! Well done and thank you for sharing!
Hi Elaine how are you doing today?
Absolutely stunning in its simplicity and elegance… truly a home that nurtures the soul☺️🌻
Hi tammy how are you doing today?
One of the best designs I have seen! Bravo. Having the kitchen across one end makes it feel so much larger.
Love that the bathroom is on the other end and not next to the kitchen. Beautiful home.
(The books and tarots might make me think twice about visiting lol - but to each their own)
Oooh, that's a good point, I hadn't noticed the bathroom and kitchen at opposite ends of the house. I don't care for the layouts where they're right beside each other. This seems a good practical solution.
Hello Alice how are you doing!!
That sofa is to die for!!!
Such a cool house, amazing site and cute doggy.
Beautiful sanctuary. Thank you for sharing your lovely home. Incredible parking spot. I can't help but smile when I see all the books, crystals, plants, and moon phase decorations. I have the same in my own home. I look forward to transitioning to my own tiny home in the near future.
Love this place. It does not look like a tiny house at all.
Binge watch this channel at your own risk. Next thing you know, you're looking into tiny house designers, land to put said tiny house on, etc. I love it and downsizing is the best feeling. We don't have a tiny house but did downsize by 1000square feet last year to a smallish condo and I don't regret or miss having all the extra stuff or house to clean and maintain.
I can't believe there isn't a link to Amelia's business. I would love to check it out!
Thee cutest dog EVER!
Idyllic sanctuary indeed.
What a lovely couple and pup. I absolutely love everything about the aesthetic. Heavenly location. And can we talk about that gorgeous sofa?
Lovely spot, lovely couple. Thanks for sharing.
Hi Cathelina how are you doing today?
Another lovely tiny home. That dining table is just what we are looking for, for our new home. Would love to know where they got it
I have a round drop leaf table Ilije that, purchased 1 or 15 yrs ago at Ashley Home Center. I have seen them at Big Lots and nice furniture stores too.
Lovely couple and exciting house and calm surrounding .
I realised near the end of this video I'd been smiling throughout- the word sanctuary certainly does apply here. Love the couple, their home as well as the surroundings; I love the trees and the river.. Thanks Bryce for another gem.
I have to tell, they have been more prepared on how to talk than other tiny house owners which is class and shows the quality of value they gave to your channel. The house itself is a class. Loved the design of it
This house looks exactly how i picture my tiny house in the future..
This is one of my favorite home layouts
Beautiful Home With A Fantastic Landscape. Would Love To Spend Rest Of My Life With My Family. Peace.......
Beautiful home, blessed beyond measures. 🙏
these is one of the best tiny houses,
Love those mini greenhouses! What a great idea!!
this is a beautiful tiny home meet all your needs
What a lovely home, and how wonderful they have books. So many people who downsize seem to get rid of books first (if they had many to start with). I'd quite like to live in a tiny home (probably a converted bus) and my biggest problem is all the books hubby and I have - about 6,000 between us. Makes tiny home living a bit of a conundrum. This home is just great and I like the two separate lofts and the walled in bedroom.
Hey Annette how are you??
That sounds like a small library! Just curious why you need all of those books? Have you read them all? If so, are you going to read them again? Research? Sentimental? Rare/valuable? I buy mine from the local library for a quarter. After I've read it, I put my initials in the back so I don't get the same one later on, return it, and buy more. I have so many stacked around my house right now. I need to get moving and get them back to the library. They look great, and company knows that I'm a reader, but they're really just taking up space and getting dusty. Regards from Indiana!
What a peaceful home on beautiful land, and gorgeous mountain views! My favorite is having a river nearby.
Another beauty Bryce and Rasa. 😊💃
Beautiful home, quite a good feeling of spaciousness, paradise site. Congrats to the couple, thank you to Bryce.
The view at the river is gorgeous. That would always be the place to find me 😁💕
It looks insanely spacious inside despite from looking so tiny outside! Magic! love it
Amazing design and loved your house. Also love the kitchen table that folds down and the chairs so it makes it cosy and not just a bench to eat your dinner at. Well done guys LOVE LOVE LOVE your house and having that big blue velvet couch is a must.
Hi kathy how are you doing ?
An astonishing home for an awesome couple! I love, love, love the layout, decor, plants and books!!! Absolutely gorgeous and I can feel the peace radiating from the home, the couple and their dog!!! Blessings to all in love and light! 🙏🏼💜🙏🏼💙🙏🏼🧡🙏🏼💛🙏🏼💚🙏🏼
