The Amelia tiny home measures 26 feet long, 8.5 feet wide, and provides 341 square feet of living space on a double-axle trailer. Built by Teacup Tiny Homes, the exterior combines white board-and-batten siding with a maintenance-free steel base and a snap-lock metal roof. Dual-pane low-E windows brighten the interior, while propane-powered underfloor heating, a mini-split air conditioning system, and a Lunos heat recovery ventilator support year-round comfort. The open living area accommodates a full sofa, with a sofa bed available as an optional upgrade.
The kitchen features a farmhouse sink, a four-burner Furrion propane range with oven, a fridge-freezer, an over-the-range microwave, a pull-out pantry, waterfall-edge countertops, and soft-close cabinetry. A sliding door leads to a bathroom fitted with a 30-by-30-inch shower, custom vanity, oversized medicine cabinet, and laundry rough-in. Two loft bedrooms provide space for king-size beds, while an optional storage staircase replaces the removable ladder for the secondary loft.
