Introducing Kill Devil Hills, a charming tiny home designed and built by Modern Tiny Living, inspired by their popular Mohican model. Nestled in the heart of North Carolina, this unique tiny house boasts a playful green exterior that is bound to catch your eye. As you step inside, you'll find yourself immersed in a contemporary beach cabin atmosphere, accentuated by the soothing contrast between gray-white solid surface countertops and custom wood cabinets.
As you walk through this cozy abode, you'll learn that it was named after the town of Kill Devil Hills, located in the Outer Banks region. This tiny home is destined to join the River & Twine tiny house hotel, where it will serve as a delightful rental property. Given its primary purpose as a short-term vacation rental, it doesn't feature full-sized appliances. However, the Mohican model can easily be adapted to include larger appliances, a washer/dryer, and additional storage for those seeking a full-time residence.
Built on a 20-foot Trailer Made custom foundation, this Mohican model showcases LP Vertical Smart Siding on its exterior, a durable steel roof, and an exterior storage box. As you step onto the luxury vinyl plank (LVP) flooring and take in the PVC interior walls, you'll appreciate the tasteful brushed nickel hardware package.
The social area, designed with relaxation in mind, features a custom couch by Modern Tiny Living, three drawers, and the ability to convert into a bed. Up the custom staircase, equipped with built-in storage, you'll find a spacious king-sized loft perfect for a restful night's sleep. Additional amenities include a custom bookcase, a folding eat/work table, and a hanging clothes closet with shelving.
In the kitchen, you'll find custom cabinetry, solid surface countertops, an undermount stainless steel sink, and a mini-fridge.
The bathroom and laundry area feature a fiberglass shower with a glass door, a standard flush toilet, floating shelves, and a custom sliding barn door. However, there is no vanity, sink, or washer and dryer included in this particular model.
Kill Devil Hills ensures year-round comfort with a ductless mini-split for heating and air conditioning. A gas propane water heater from PrecisionTemp provides hot water, while the home is powered by a 50-amp electric service. To top it all off, the home is well-insulated with 3-inch closed-cell spray foam in the walls and ceilings and 4 inches in the floors, ensuring energy efficiency and coziness in all seasons.
As you complete your walkthrough of the Kill Devil Hills tiny home, you'll undoubtedly feel the warmth and charm this small-scale dwelling exudes. The perfect blend of modern design and beach cabin flair, it is a testament to the incredible work of Modern Tiny Living and their ability to create an inviting and comfortable space within a compact footprint.
The thoughtful design and attention to detail make it not only visually appealing but also highly practical for short-term vacationers or those considering a full-time tiny living experience. We appreciate the adaptability of the Mohican model, which can be customized to accommodate larger appliances and additional storage if desired. Kill Devil Hills is a testament to the potential of tiny homes, and we wholeheartedly recommend it for those seeking a unique and memorable vacation rental or as inspiration for their own tiny home adventure.
