Welcome to the River Loft.
This is my 550 square foot tiny home in Connecticut,
about an hour outside New York City.
I'm gonna give you a full survey of the property
and show you all the details.
I think this property is gonna blow your mind.
So come on with me.
Let's go.
The River Loft was built in 2015 by a local architect
and she thought of everything.
And the first thing you may notice when you walk in here
is it feels a lot larger than 550 square feet.
And that's because of the tall ceilings
that she thought of.
And also the open air concept with the garage door.
But what I think you're really gonna find interesting
is all the appliances and the details that she thought of.
So come with me and make sure you stick around
to the very end.
Setting up the Murphy bed is simple.
The first thing we're gonna do
is just move all the cushions
and then we're gonna slide the end of the couch
towards the middle.
So when the Murphy bed comes down, it's secure.
Also hidden in the cabinet are the linens
and two extra lamps for extra light at night.
Even though this is a small house,
the kitchen is fully set up.
We have everything you can think of
from an oven, microwave, full fridge.
We even maximize the space by having a cutting board
that's in the wall.
And even our coffee nook is hidden in our toaster.
So everything here, we're just trying to maximize space.
But next I wanna show you the hidden bathtub.
I think you're gonna find this really interesting.
Side note, there's radiant heat throughout the entire loft.
And when you walk in the bathroom,
you'll immediately see a custom concrete sink,
a rain shower, and a small hatch
that can open up into a large hidden bathtub.
Now that you got the full tour of the downstairs,
we're gonna go upstairs on the library ladder
and I'm gonna show you my private workstation.
This is where I spend most of the day.
All we need to do is pull out our chair,
open up the cabinets,
and there's gonna be two small sticks
that we're gonna slide through the rings.
And then we're slowly gonna bring the desk down.
Now that you've seen the interior, let's go outside.
Favorite part about the River Loft is not inside,
it's actually outside.
So the River Loft sits on over two and a half acres
of private forested land.
And as you can see, there's hundreds of different types
of wildflowers and fruit trees
to help you really get back in touch with nature.
Other thing about the River Loft
is we have tons of different private trails.
So whether you're just trying to go on a nice nature walk
or you're trying to actually go outside
and do some trail running like I like to do,
we have it all here.
And one of my most recent investments
is this four-person barrel sauna.
I love this.
This is something that gets up to like 185,
almost 190 degrees.
That's plenty hot for me.
I haven't used it in the winter yet,
but I'm really looking forward to that.
But when you get out of this bad boy,
one of the best things to do
is jump straight into the shower.
So we have this outdoor shower we just installed
and this does hot and cold,
but getting that cold water on you after the steam
is the best feeling in the world.
And when you walk down here,
we actually have a direct path that's private
that goes to the river.
So in the summer, I like to spend a lot of time out here,
especially after my trail runs to just jump in,
cool down, make fires, s'mores, that type of thing.
So I'm gonna show you that in just a second.
So this is the perfect spot, in my opinion,
to make some s'mores or just campfire
and just relax and chill.
And again, I wanna show you the river now.
This is the spot where I go to cool down
and jump in every once in a while.
And this is part of the reservoir.
We have some tubes too,
if you wanna jump in or float around
and not have to actually get your full body in.
If you enjoy the tour, make sure to give us a follow
and book a trip with that special someone.
