Porto has refined aesthetics that immediately catch your eye. The exterior measures 7.3 meters in length, and 2.55 meters in width, and reaches a height of 4 meters, neatly compacted on a lightweight trailer.
The well-insulated 2-pane windows and an exterior double door made of tempered glass invite you in, hinting at the cozy interior. Glance upwards, and you'll notice the lightweight and durable aluminum roof. Designed to endure the winter, the home features eco-friendly recycled textile insulation, ensuring comfort all year round.
Step inside, and the 25-square-meter living area welcomes you. A room height of 3.26 meters and the clever use of space creates an open and inviting environment. The walls, adorned with spruce paneling, emit a warm glow, while the laminate ground floor and spruce floor lofts add texture and grace to the space.
Thoughtful design continues with the implementation of installed electricity, plumbing, and ventilation systems, making the Porto as functional as it is beautiful.
Climb to one of the two spacious lofts, and you'll find cozy sleeping areas that can comfortably accommodate up to six people. The privacy and personal space they offer, without compromising on the roominess of the living area, is an excellent design.
Onto the kitchen - another great example of utilizing space without sacrificing functionality. Lower and upper cabinets, offered in either veneer or MDF, line the walls. A three-layer oak board countertop hosts either an electric or gas stove, with the choice of an induction or gas cooktop.
Whether you choose a small or large fridge, the Porto ensures you have what you need. Additional features like a dishwasher, kitchen hood, and protective glass panel add convenience and style.
Next, let's visit the bathroom, where the choice of laminate or PVC flooring underlines the aesthetic consideration throughout the house. Wet-room-approved walls, a shower cabin with a glass door, and various options for the toilet showcase the home's versatile design. The inclusion of a cupboard with a washing basin, an energy-saving hot water heater, and preparation for a washing machine showcases Porto's dedication to the contemporary lifestyle.
The house's lighting, with options for ceiling-mounted LED or spotlights, can be customized to your preference with dimmers. Coupled with a solar system, frost guard, and energy-efficient utilities like chromed copper pipes and a water tank & pump, Porto goes beyond simple living and enters the realm of responsible, eco-conscious habitation.
With features tailored to individual preferences, from kitchen amenities to bathroom fittings, it truly stands as a testament to Scandinavian design's prowess and Vagabond Haven's vision.
Our exploration of Porto reveals a refreshing take on tiny house living that genuinely captivates. The sleeping lofts provide an unexpected spaciousness, and the three-layer oak board countertop in the kitchen adds a touch of rustic elegance that stands out. The integration of eco-friendly insulation with the contemporary design of lightweight aluminum roofing strikes a balance between environmental consciousness and modern appeal.
