With this in mind, the Luxe 6.0 tiny house features a compact footprint that's laid out on one floor and has a space-saving design that's well-suited for use as a guest house or vacation home.
Designed by Highlands Tiny Homes, the Luxe 6.0 is based on a double-axle trailer and, as its name suggests, has a length of 6 m (20 ft). It's very small compared to most North American models, though Dragon Tiny Homes'Sorais actually the same size.
Its exterior is finished in metal and what looks like wood-effect vinyl, with a metal roof and a ton of glazing, including a large operable window in the kitchen. This really helps open up the home to the outside.
The interior is finished in tongue-and-groove, with timber ceilings and a vinyl floor. Like Escape'sVista, it forgoes a dedicated living room altogether in favor of a combined sleeping area/daybed. This includes an adjacent bench seat with some storage. The layout makes a lot of sense given the lack of space and I'd actually prefer this setup to a cramped sofa and TV configuration.
The kitchen is quite basic, reflecting its intended use as a vacation home or rental, but is still a highlight in this model. Arranged in a galley style with cabinets on each wall, it features lots of storage, as well as a sink, an induction cooktop, a microwave, and faux stone counters (presumably a fridge is stashed away in the cabinetry too). A breakfast bar for two is situated next to the large operable window mentioned.
At the opposite side of the interior to the living/sleeping area lies the bathroom. This includes a vanity sink, a glass-enclosed shower, and a choice of either a flushing or composting toilet.
The Luxe 6.0 starts at AUD 93,900 (for reference, this works out at around US$67,000). We've no word on delivery, so those interested should contact the firm directly.
