Mindy and Chase are excited to show you around their cozy tiny house, named the "Little Lotus." This space is designed with a relaxed, zen vibe, perfect for their lifestyle. From their full-size couch for cozy family nights to their multifunctional furniture, every piece serves at least two purposes to maximize space.
Living Room & Workspace
Their living room doubles as an office and dining area. They have a coffee table that lifts up for ergonomic work and a bistro set where they can stand or sit for meals. They love light, breezy spaces that are easy to maintain, and their furniture, including a storage stool that doubles as a tabletop, reflects that.
Kitchen Essentials
Despite the small size, their kitchen is designed for big cooking and entertaining. It features a full-size propane range, microwave, two-sided sink, and a wallpapered refrigerator for a personalized touch. They prioritized ample storage for their serving ware and cookware, with plenty of space to keep everything organized and within reach.
Bedroom Bliss
The master bedroom in the loft is the largest they've ever had, featuring a king-size bed, extensive clothing storage, and plenty of room for yoga and meditation. Chaseโs bedroom downstairs offers him privacy and space for his interests, with room for friends to stay over and plenty of storage for his books and toys.
Spacious Bathroom
Their bathroom, one of the largest they've had, is designed to be both beautiful and functional. It includes a full-size shower with seats, ample storage for linens and toiletries, and a light, airy vibe. They have a full-size toilet and use electricity and propane just like a regular house, ensuring comfort and convenience.
Efficient Hallway
The hallway is incredibly functional, with a full-size stackable washer and dryer, storage for cleaning supplies, and a library area for hats, scarves, and accessories.
Why Tiny Living?
Mindy and Chase transitioned to tiny living to reduce costs and simplify their lives. With a monthly cost of just $1,000, it's cheaper than renting in San Diego, and they enjoy the added benefits of a yard and a close-knit community. Their journey into tiny living was made easier by finding a pre-designed tiny home on a lot with all utilities set up. It was a perfect solution for their needs.
Personal Touches
They cherish items that bring them joy, from artwork by friends and family to special artifacts and personalized decorations. Their home is a blend of functionality and beauty, reflecting their love for a healthy, organized, and joyful living environment.
Thank you for joining Mindy and Chase on this tour of the Little Lotus! If you're curious about tiny living or want to follow their journey, connect with them on social media. They hope to inspire you to create a space that brings you joy, no matter the size.

Just so everyone knows- the birds and cats are rescue animals. And they go outside everyday. I have a catio for them. ๐๐ผ๐๐

This is by far one of the best tiny houses that I have seen. It checks all the boxes,size,comfort, and beauty!โคโคโค
-
This is a beautiful tiny house. Your son is a talented artist and seems like a really sweet kid. Thanks for sharing your home with us.
-
The altar made me almost cry. This family of two is really special. Beyond the homeโฆ this mother is a really special person. What a wholesome story. Thank you for showing this to me YouTube!

Mom is so loving giving her son the bedroom on the ground floor. I feel the same way and think it was a good move giving an area of space to call his own and to allow for that sleepover with friends when the time comes. Iโm so happy for them but so upset with the circumstances in our country and the economy that has pushed hard working citizens out of the housing market and has made them seek other alternatives in order to live. This mother said something similar to what my aunt told me a number of years back and has stuck with me since โ the way youโve done things here isnโt wrong sweetie itโs just a different way โ . This after being told how wrong I was I so appreciated that and hearing this lady say something similar made me smile. Best of luck to her and her son, they seem very delightful.

Gorgeous home! Can't believe it's only 399 SF....seems so much larger and doesn't appear as if you're missing anything. So impressed. ๐
-
I like the idea of making all items have at least two uses.
-
'Everything needs two uses to stay"... towel storage doubles as cat bed!
-
Love your spacious & bright, lovely home. It feels so peaceful! Chase seems so intelligent & articulate.
-
This tiny home is better than my city apartment, well done! More expensive than others but very nice.
-
This is a really nice tiny home and I like her decorating style. :)
-
My favorite tiny home. Gorgeous and spacious.
-
Cody, that's called a trundle bed. I grew up on one. Except it had a steel frame, and if flipped a lever, thst came up to full bed height. They used to be very popular. Very nice interior, sounds very reasonable in today's housing market, too!
-
The decorating of the interior makes it such a great looking home
-
Mom gets to feel like a kid again in her loft. Iโd love a loft to turn into a Movie watching room. I really wish states would start allowing tiny houses neighborhoods so you can own your own land. In this housing market that would make the most sense.
-
Ur little boy is so full of life and has a good personality wow good job mama !
-
Love your layout!!! And what a cool kid!!! He's definitely going to go places!!! โค๐
-
I love this home. And sheโs raising such a little man. I love when children find the things that really bring them joy ๐
-
This house is so cute. A lot of tiny homes have so much character compared to a โregularโ size home usually they are so bland inside with no life to them.
-
Can not believe how big this is- the kitchen and bathroom , Chase's room- wow
