Craft House’s Mini packs a full home into 16.8 square meters

Craft House’s Mini is 6 meters long and about 16.8 square meters, but it still packs in a full kitchen, a proper bathroom, and a sleeping loft. The trick is not extra space. It is a floor plan that wastes almost none of the body.

A 6-meter shell that still reads as a house

The Mini sits on a road-ready SYMA trailer and is the most maneuverable model in Craft House’s range, which matters as much as the dimensions do. A tiny house this short only works if the exterior feels complete and the structure is built for real towing, not just parked display. Craft House leans into that with torched honey-pine cladding, a single-pitch roof, black-framed windows, a glass entry door, and a large picture window that opens up the short side of the house visually.

Inside, the material palette stays consistent with the mobile-home brief: Scandinavian spruce on the interior, thermo pine and aluminum standing-seam sheet metal on the exterior, double-glazed plastic windows, a 220 V electrical installation, smart air conditioning, and underfloor heating.

The layout does the heavy lifting

The Mini works because every major function gets its own real zone instead of being squeezed into a token corner. The plan is tight, but it is not careless. A galley kitchen, a separate bathroom, and a loft sleeping area give the house the same basic rhythm you expect from a larger tiny home, just compressed into a much more disciplined footprint.

Kitchen usability without the usual tiny-house compromises

The kitchen is the first place small homes usually betray themselves, and Craft House avoids that by building in the pieces people actually use. The Mini gets a black countertop, an induction hob, an oven, a fridge, and a fold-down bar counter. That means the kitchen can handle real cooking instead of only reheating and coffee, and the fold-down counter gives you a place to eat or stage prep without stealing permanent floor space.

The galley layout helps here because it keeps the work surfaces linear and efficient. There is no wasted island, no decorative dead zone, and no awkward jog just to make a room look bigger on paper.

Storage that is built into the circulation

The best storage move in the Mini is not hidden under a bench or tucked behind a false wall. It is the staircase. Instead of a ladder, Craft House uses a set of box-like storage cubes that double as the route up to the loft. That choice does two things at once: it makes the sleeping area feel easier to access than a steep ladder would, and it turns the path upstairs into useful volume.

If the stairs are doing storage work, the rest of the plan can stay cleaner.

A bathroom that behaves like a real room

The bathroom is where the Mini makes its strongest case for full-time living. It is not treated like a leftover space or a wet-room afterthought. Instead, it gets a glass shower, black-marble-look wall panels, a vanity, a flush toilet, a water heater, and a backlit mirror.

The glass shower and vanity make the room feel like a proper bath, not a utility closet, while the water heater and flush toilet push it well past the bare-minimum setup so many small builds settle for.

The loft still has to earn its keep

The sleeping loft spans the rear of the home under the roofline, which is the right move for a house this length. By pushing the bed up and back, Craft House frees the main level for the kitchen, bath, and day-to-day movement. It is a familiar tiny-house strategy, but here it is executed in a way that keeps the layout feeling balanced instead of cramped.

Anyone shopping in this size range knows the trade-off: you get a separate sleeping zone, but you also accept stairs, a lower ceiling, and the realities of climbing in and out of bed in a compact shell.

Towability is part of the value, not an afterthought

KAP House lists SYMA trailers as having been on the market for 30 years, carrying up to 3.5 tonnes, and coming with full road approval and a C.O.C. conformity certificate for registration and approval across Europe.

Tiny houses can work as year-round homes, summer houses, rentals, studios, mobile shops, or offices, and Mobi House says it is one of the few companies in Europe with full vehicle approval for a tiny house as a caravan.

Customer feedback on Craft House’s homepage points to smooth transport, setup help, and responsive support.

What the price says about the target buyer

Starting at 144,000 PLN, or roughly $36,000, the Mini sits in the range where first-time buyers, guest-house shoppers, and downsizers start paying close attention. At that price, the question is not whether it is luxurious. The question is whether it gives enough for the money to justify choosing a tiny home over a van conversion, a cabin shell, or a larger second-hand build.

Craft House answers that by making the Mini feel finished. It is not an empty trailer waiting for a fit-out. It is an all-season build with underfloor heating, smart A/C, a real bath, and a kitchen that can cook an actual meal.
