Designing a tiny house for a family can be tricky. The Soma, by Removed Tiny Homes, offers a solution with three bedrooms and a large living area.

This tiny house is built on a triple-axle trailer. It measures 10 meters (32.8 feet) long and 3.4 meters (11.1 feet) wide. This is a bit wider than standard tiny homes, which are usually 2.6 meters (8.5 feet) wide. The exterior is made of corrugated steel and engineered wood.

Inside the Soma

The interior feels open and bright due to its extra width, high ceiling, and many windows. It features timber flooring and plywood walls. Buyers can choose between a ply or timber ceiling.

The main living space, covering 52 square meters (560 square feet), includes an open living room and kitchen. The living room has a large sofa and an entertainment center. The kitchen is well-equipped with a sink, fridge/freezer, oven, four-burner propane stove, and a dishwasher. A breakfast bar seats up to four people.

The bathroom on the ground floor has a separate washing machine and dryer, a vanity sink, and a glass-enclosed shower. Buyers can choose a composting or incinerating toilet.

The master bedroom is also on the ground floor, opposite the living room/kitchen. It has a double bed and built-in wardrobes, with enough headroom to stand comfortably.

The Soma's upstairs bedrooms have low ceilings but include a lowered standing platform to make it easier to stand up and get dressed

Upstairs Bedrooms

Two more bedrooms are upstairs, accessed by a staircase. These are loft-style rooms with lower ceilings. Each has a double bed and some storage. They also feature a lowered standing platform, which provides extra height for getting into bed and dressing.

The Soma is available for AUD 204,990 (about US$148,000), plus delivery within Australia.
