The Little House That Could

Eccentrically contemporary, yet in character still reminiscent of Pasadena’s classic craftsman style homes. The design borrows spunky spirit from the “Tiny House” movement, while delivering full functionality, plus a home office/guest or kid’s room, spacious loft, parking for two, all on a very small footprint.

This “Big Little House” is a showstopper for those who drive by it. It stands tall and proud while being the smallest house on the block.

At only 1,230 SF total, it is built on a small narrow lot of only 2,587 square feet in size, the house looks big in that it strikes a pose.

Every inch of the property was used to its maximum potential with efficient use of spaces.

The result was light and spacious interiors designed with cathedral vaulted ceilings. This house was meant to be lived large in a small space. There’s even a cute backyard. With its whimsical, quickly and upbeat blend of traditional and contemporary, this compact design fulfills an American dream of affordable homeownership.
