Rustic Cabin Perfection & The Art Of Salvage

This week we visit an incredible cabin which is packed full of rustic charm. From the large ex-telephone polls outside, to the reclaimed timber and brick interior, this cabin’s construction shows a mastery of the art of salvage.

At only 30m2, this cabin packs a real punch! It's cozy, stylish and emanates a strong sense of home. The clever addition of a semi-outdoor bathroom and the large connecting undercover deck completes the home perfectly.  This small home has largely been constructed using reclaimed materials making it not only affordable but packed full of character.

The cabin is situated on a 5 acre property which is being established as a micro farm, with a small amount of land for grazing animals, growing vegetables as well as impressive conversation wetland plantings.

As you all know I'm such a huge fan of using reclaimed materials in homes. There's nothing the builds story and character into a home faster than the re-use of materials and this beautiful rustic cabin is a brilliant example of that! We hope you enjoy the tour of this wonderful home. With Love, Bryce & Rasa

Been following this channel for years. Bryce is a perfect host. Always professional, always encouraging, always lovely. Seems like a special person.

Love how they built a whole life on the land... martial arts, gardening, beekeeping...wow

Nothing quite like a newborn baby. Man I’m tellin U! I’m a father who misses it dearly. My children are adults now so the hugs, & kisses don’t come as often as they used to, but hey, at least I have grandchildren to love on now!!! 🙏🏿

This is absolutely another of my favourites. I really like these one-floor houses... future proofing.
This is beautifully planned. I love the eco-friendly options and it's a great outcome for 85kUSD (of course factoring in personal work without labor).
Thank you Rasa and Bryce. This was amazing. I really like how you've been featuring single -floor houses of late, showing how one could live an environmental-friendly life while also catering to personal preferences and convenience.

They can easily add on another bedroom to the right of the master bedroom without having to build another home. 😊💕

Julia is correct. Items left on open shelves get dirty very quickly, and even more so if you have a fuel stove in the room. Open shelves may look pretty, but they are not practical and create a lot more work for the person who has to clean them.

This home is so beautifully rustic. I love the fact he used recycled materials, which when one finds them, are a super deal. That porch really makes it look like a regular sized home - I love it! He also has room to add on an addition if he chose to. Living off the land he has, which is gorgeous, is smart. A good way to teach your children. This man and his family are on the right track. Thanks for sharing!

L❤VE the front porch! The fact that this couple values land more than house size, used reclaimed materials to build their home and are ‘working the land’, by growing food, etc… makes it one of my favorites. Also, the Jujitsu gym is great! Two of my favorite things: gardens & Martial Arts, right on their property! ❤

[cindykaye]

This home is a zen symphony of simple, eco & budget-friendly materials, beautifully designed & executed! There's such a sense of peace with this lovely young family. Wishing them all the best in their endeavors! Thank you for sharing, Bryce & Rasa!!!

[wakingtheworld]

Well, Bryce & Rasa, yet another winner of a They just keep coming or you keep finding them! This one is a cracker; a mish-mass of textures and timbers that work so well together. Such a lovely couple too with one super cute baby...

[christineingram]

It’s nice and airy inside, you don’t feel cramped at all like some homes.They could even add on two more bedrooms for the children if they need to in a few years around that one side .Perfect place to bring up children.

[Greentrees]

It is so impressive how well they are using the land! A home, a garden (with cattle and sheep!) and not one but 2 businesses, AND habitat restoration! It is so impressive, and also is a sharp reminder how inefficiently we use land with other forms of housing development.

[kristenkindoll]

I love how he found all of these deals. The house has so much character. Also, I'm more comfortable with a small home on a foundation. Love that there are more of these about and being featured.

[thetendencyofallarts]

Oh, I was never this early for your video. Just wanted to say thank you for showing us these incredible homes and thank you for showing what a nice human being in general you are. Support and love from Belgrade, Serbia.

[janmoline]

I love the single floor designs. I've wrecked my foot and ankle so ladders are out completely and even steep stairs give me pause. I really hope to get property soon and subdivide to put 2 tinies. That way my brother (retired Air Force) and I can each have our own home but close enough we can help each other out! Loving the ideas I can check out on these videos!!

[lauraleazenby]

I so appreciate how the ingenuity of this couple and their tiny home outsmarted the inflation costs of the day! Bravo! Your baby boy is beautiful! Stay Blessed.

[alexandrastratanphotographer]

heavenly, loving the saw materials the trunks with the minimal clean aesthetic, the bees the landscapes, gardens who could ask for more?

[denisebd]

I love the bathroom and their tiny house looks spacious and their closet is huge. I believe they can add to the tiny house for the baby and children to come!

Wow they live in a beautiful place… love that they added shade to the house
