078 Tiny Retreat

This thoughtfully designed two-bedroom, one-bathroom tiny home combines style, comfort, and practicality within a compact 78m² footprint. With 71m² of internal living space and a 7m² covered patio, it maximises functionality while maintaining a modern, open feel.

The open-plan living and kitchen area serves as a spacious hub for daily life, with seamless flow onto the patio for outdoor dining or relaxation. The clever placement of the laundry, bathroom, and separate WC ensures both convenience and privacy, while optimising circulation throughout the home.

Both bedrooms are fitted with built-in robes for ample storage, while the kitchen features a dedicated pantry and an efficient, practical layout. Additional storage solutions, including internal cupboards, ensure every square metre is utilised effectively.

With a strong focus on smart space usage, this home balances compact living with generous storage and usability. Perfect as a granny flat, first home, or downsizer’s retreat, it delivers comfort and livability without compromise.

Importantly, this home has been designed in line with the NCC 2022 Livable Housing Standards, providing a safe, accessible, and adaptable environment for people of all ages and abilities. Key features include:

• Step-free entry with ramped access to the patio and main entrance.

• Wider internal doorways and circulation spaces for ease of movement.

• Reinforced bathroom walls to support future installation of grab rails.

• Accessible bathroom layout with a step-free shower recess.

• Continuous and even pathways to all key areas of the home.

These inclusions ensure the home is both future-ready and fully compliant, offering peace of mind and long-term liveability.

This design demonstrates that tiny living can deliver comfort, safety, and flexibility, while meeting modern building standards and accessibility requirements.
