Most tiny homes ask you to forgive something. The Amelia doesn’t. It speaks that language fluently — treating constraint as a design language rather than something to apologize for.
Stretching 26 feet long and 8.5 feet wide, the Amelia sits on a double-axle trailer and clocks in at 341 square feet of living space. It wears white board-and-batten siding with a maintenance-free steel base and a snap-lock metal roof — clean, unfussy, built to hold up wherever you put it. The kind of exterior that looks deliberate rather than compromised.

Step inside and the first thing you notice is the light. Generous dual-pane, low-E windows fill the living room with natural brightness, and the layout feels considered rather than cramped. There’s room for a full sofa — a sofa bed is available as an upgrade — alongside a large storage unit. A propane-powered underfloor heating system keeps the ground level comfortable year-round, complemented by a mini-split air conditioning unit and a Lunos heat recovery ventilator for air quality. The Amelia was built for Canadian winters, and it shows.
The kitchen sits just past the living area and does not ask you to compromise. A white apron-front farmhouse sink anchors the space, joined by a four-burner Furrion propane range, an oven, a fridge-freezer, a stainless over-the-range microwave, and a large pull-out pantry. Waterfall-edge marble-like countertops run along the perimeter, with an eating bar doubling as a workstation. Every detail, from the soft-close cabinet doors to the black Kohler pull-down faucet, feels chosen rather than settled for. It is the kind of kitchen that makes cooking feel like something worth doing.
A sliding door connects the kitchen to the bathroom — a thoughtful detail that keeps the living zone open. Inside, a 30×30 stand-up shower with easy-clean fiberglass walls, a custom vanity with a rectangular vessel sink, and an oversized round medicine cabinet handle the essentials without feeling like a compromise. There is also a laundry rough-in for those who want to add machines later.
Two loft bedrooms occupy the upper level. The main loft, positioned over the kitchen, fits a king-size bed behind a slatted privacy wall. The secondary loft, accessed by a removable wooden ladder above the living room, handles a queen or king with room to spare. A storage-integrated staircase is available as an upgrade and is worth it for full-time living.
The Amelia starts at roughly US$102,000 and is available for delivery across the United States and Canada. Teacup Tiny Homes, a 100% female-owned Alberta-based builder operating since 2016, offers significant customization across layouts, materials, and finishes. For a home this size, it carries a lot of conviction.
