SHC-5 KYKA $149

The Kyka is a perfectly sized cabin for getaways, for an ADU, mother in law cottage or just a small home for one or two people. Simple lines, large windows and a gable roof combine to create a timeless looking and straightforward to build home.

Everything you need in a small home is available in this well thought out floor plan. A full bath, nicely sized main bedroom with plenty of closet space and a fully appointed kitchen with built in eating bar and an open concept great room cover all the bases. There’s even a covered porch entry to keep you dry on days when the weather is rough plus easy access to the deck for peaceful summer days.

The ladder accessible loft space is an added bonus and gives you room for extra storage, sleeping space for guests or kids or a work area or crafting space. In fact, you can use this extra space for anything you envision. 

By combining right sized work and living spaces within the relatively small footprint of the Kyka, there’s enough room for everything. The kitchen has all the appliances you need to create good meals, plenty of storage in the cupboards, eating space at the bar…large windows make the living room friendly and spacious, inviting relaxation and good conversation.  A cozy wood or gas stove makes for a natural focal point, and in warmer months the view out the windows replaces the flickering flame as a place for your attention to center.

A well designed space doesn’t end up being notable for small-ness, but for functionality and aesthetic. Plenty of windows bringing the outdoors in and just the right amount of space for well proportioned furnishings create a perfect space for living.

Vaulted ceilings in this open concept floor plan work synergistically with large windows and doors to create a space that flows and never seems too small. 

A long line of sight adds to a feeling of spaciousness and plenty of room for everything. At the same time, the hallway is a space saver rather than a waste of square footage.

Storage and enough room for a full suite of bedroom furniture ensure that your sleeping quarters are not only restful but comfortable. Access to the outdoors lets the light or the night in, as you like it.

The fully appointed bathroom has under vanity storage and a full sized tub for soaking.

While we show the sleeping loft set up as a second bedroom space, it could just as easily provide storage, a work space, an area to write, paint or pursue crafts or just about anything else you might think of. Ceilings are high enough and wide enough through the center area to accommodate movement without a sense of being cramped or having to duck. A ladder provides access.

A home unifying the indoors and out via a planned and functional deckspace is a thoughtful touch that helps finish the space and make it whole. There is enough room on this deck to entertain family or friends and egress from both the bedroom and living room ensure that you can come and go from inside to outdoors easily.
