With its new Tulameen model, Rover Tiny Homes has produced its smallest tiny house to date. However, smallest is relative here, and this is still a large towable home, with a spacious interior layout that's arranged all on one level.
Taking its name from a Canadian mountain, the Tulameen is based on a triple-axle trailer and has a length of 36 ft (10 m). It also has an increased width of 10.5 ft (3.2 m), which means it requires a permit to tow on a public road in the US. So it's definitely on the larger side, though by no means up there with the biggest we've seen, like the 45-ft-long Tellico, for example.
The tiny house's exterior is a little different from the norm and inspired by traditional Cape Cod architecture, with cedar shakes cladding, an asphalt roof, and three decorative dormers. It also includes a main entrance plus a side entrance via a covered porch. Entering through that porch reveals the living room, which has a small sofa and a chair, plus a coffee table.
The kitchen is nearby and features a fridge/freezer, an oven with propane-powered four-burner stove, a sink, and quite a lot of cabinetry for its relatively small size.
The Tulameen's bathroom is further into the home, situated next to the other entrance, and has a laundry area with a washer/dryer area nearby. It has a shower, vanity sink, and a flushing toilet.
The bedroom is situated on the opposite side of the tiny house to the living room and, since the layout is all on one level, has ample headroom to stand upright. It contains a double bed and some storage space and looks particularly spacious for a tiny house bedroom.
The Tulameen is designed to withstand a Canadian winter so has excellent insulation and is kept warm with electric heaters and a mini-split air-conditioning system. It gets power from a standard RV-style hookup and is currently on the market for CAD169,900 (roughly US$118,000).
