VIDEO DESCRIPTION:
Welcome to Brad's beautiful and functional tiny home living space! In this complete tour of his 28 ft tiny house, Brad shares why he chose the Clever S model and how it perfectly aligns with his nature of essentialism. Discover how this thoughtfully designed 8x28 foot tiny house on wheels (THOW) maximizes utility and beauty, providing a surprisingly spacious feel in only 220 square feet.
Inside Brad’s Minimalist & Functional Home
Brad highlights the exceptional layout that separates the living, kitchen, and bathroom areas. The design emphasizes natural light, especially in the kitchen—a feature Brad notes is rare in many other tiny homes.
Gourmet Tiny Kitchen: See a restaurant-quality kitchen with ample counter space, a huge farm sink, and an induction cooktop. Brad explains his choice to forgo an oven for more storage, tailored to his needs as a 50-year veteran cook. The counter area is brilliantly lit by large windows, offering mountain views and natural light for a joyful cooking experience.
The Cozy & Flexible Living Zone (Bedroom): Explore a versatile space that functions as a living area, greenhouse, and bedroom! The key feature here is the Queen-size Murphy bed, which conveniently disappears to free up space for yoga, Qi Gong, or just relaxing. This area also boasts clever storage solutions and a cozy banquette seating area.
Spa-Like Tiny Bathroom: Unwind in the stunning, private bathroom, which Brad considers his "greenhouse spa." It features a huge frosted window, a vessel sink, high-quality quartz countertops, abundant storage via large medicine cabinets, and, notably, a large bathtub—a coveted amenity in a tiny home of this size!
Storage & Utility: Brad details the impressive storage throughout, including a discreet laundry nook for a stackable washer/dryer unit.
The Tiny Home Lifestyle & Finances
Brad, a 63-year-old yoga instructor, discusses his perspective on aging gracefully through subtraction, not addition. He details his extensive research process, including visiting a tiny home festival, before settling on the Clever S.
Location: Brad found his perfect spot at Paradise Tiny Home Community in Desert Hot Springs, a community powered by solar energy and well water, offering a flat-rate utility fee.
Affordability: Learn about the surprisingly low monthly mortgage payment of $650 Brad secured through 21st Mortgage, making this high-quality home an exceptional value compared to conventional housing costs in 2025.
Brad has named his home "Santosha," a Sanskrit word for peace. This tiny living space is more than a house; it's a peaceful sanctuary designed for functional beauty and a clutter-free life.
