Park model tiny house provides apartment-style living on a single floor

Some tiny houses focus on being easy to move. The Apex takes a different path. It prioritizes comfort and space over portability.

This tiny house feels more like a small apartment. It has a single-floor layout.

A Spacious Tiny Home

Canada's Rover Tiny Homes designed the Apex. It's a park model, meaning it's not meant to be towed often. The home measures 492 square feet. This is quite large for a tiny house.

The exterior looks like a pleasant cabin. It features engineered wood, dark cedar shingles, and a metal roof. Inside, the rustic style continues with drywall, wooden trim, and vinyl plank flooring.

Double glass doors lead into the living room. This room has a sloping ceiling and large windows. There's enough space for a sofa, chairs, and an optional wood-burning stove. A mini-split air conditioner is also installed.

Rover Tiny Homes says the Apex has good insulation and is airtight. This helps it stay comfortable in both hot and cold weather.

Full Kitchen and Practical Spaces

The kitchen is next to the living room. It's designed for serious cooking. It includes a sink, oven, four-burner propane cooktop, fridge/freezer, and a dishwasher. There's also plenty of cabinet space and a breakfast bar for three people.

Further inside, a hallway leads to a mud room. This is unusual for tiny houses but very useful. It offers storage for outdoor gear and has its own entrance.

The hallway also leads to the bathroom. It features a laundry area with a washer/dryer, a vanity sink, a flushing toilet, and a bathtub. A bathtub is a luxury in a tiny house, even one this size.

At the end of the hallway is the bedroom. It's spacious for a tiny house. The single-floor layout means there's plenty of headroom. The bedroom has built-in storage, a double bed, and a ceiling fan.

The Apex model starts at CAD 212,400, which is about US$150,000.
