Main Plan and Loft Plan: The miniHome features a main plan and a loft plan, with a total area of 960 square feet, including 576 square feet of interior space, a 96 square foot loft, and a 288 square foot deck. Key areas include cooking, dining, creating, bathing, entertaining, dreaming, and a sleeping loft.

Exterior Specifications: The structure is built with engineered wood frame constructions on a structural steel chassis. External cladding consists of pre-finished pine and Douglas Fir.

Water, power, and wastewater setup requirements vary based on available services.

Zoning Information: The miniHome can be classified as a building or manufactured home under the Ontario Building Code. Zoning depends on location, size, use, and permanency. Local municipality contact is recommended for zoning information.
