As featured on A&E’s Living Smaller (Episode 1), the Tiny Sustainer offers a unique and upscale experience. Have it both ways with a retreat in nature AND a 10 minute drive to historic downtown West Jefferson or quaint Todd or 25 minutes to Boone. Enjoy the well appointed custom shipping container home with 3 decks, hot tub, fire table, wood burning fire pit, grill, hammock area, dining nook, and comfy outdoor furniture. Relax and refresh while experiencing the joy of tiny living!

The space
The Tiny Sustainer was designed and built with the vision for simple yet comfortable living that supports a deep connection with nature and a smaller footprint on the planet. The meticulously designed 160 square foot Tiny Sustainer makes use of every inch and lacks for nothing.

With the small interior footprint, the majority of the space is dedicated to four truly magical outdoor areas. The area directly in front of the Tiny Sustainer boasts a unique fire ball fire pit where you can bring your own firewood to build that idyllic campfire. The main deck is equipped with a dining area, propane fire pit (for those lazy evenings when you still want to enjoy a fire without the work of building one!), propane 3 burner grill, and seating area to relax and enjoy nature in. The second deck, right on top of the Sustainer, brings you even further among the trees, accentuating the winter views of the mountains and the year round tree encapsulated magical nook. Read a good book, take a nap, or enjoy the view of the trees while relaxing on the outdoor patio furniture on the second deck. The third deck, perched on a hill behind the Sustainer, allows you access to a 4 person hot tub with a private comfy 2 person hammock only a few feet away. You can expect to see birds, deer, and other wildlife about while you enjoy the outdoors.

The Tiny Sustainer itself was built with all the essentials and packaged into a cozy, comfortable, and retreat-like space. With an emphasis on sustainability, the home is partially powered from a local community solar installation. Tall ceilings, well equipped kitchen, unique high end bathroom, working/dining area, and a comfy sleeping space with cozy sheets are a few of the features. Use the high speed wifi to login to your video streaming accounts and enjoy a movie on the Smart TV while relaxing after a day of exploring. Complimentary coffee and tea, along with luxury shampoos/soaps are just a few of the other amenities provided.
