Inside the Alcove Bunkie 160 With Loft Cabin



The​‍​‌‍​‍‌ Alcove 160 with Loft bunkie cabin by Bunkie Life embodies a stunning design paired with a clever floor plan. It marries the timeless style of a bunkie cabin with an efficient layout and a little over 240 sq. ft. of usable space. At the same time, it retains that snug atmosphere which fans of bunkie cabins adore. At a cost of $22, 495, this model from Bunkie Life is a real steal if you want a small footprint cabin that is top quality and surprisingly spacious.

It is not hard to see why this cabin looks so inviting a glance from outside with it simple, well-proportioned lines and the addition of a small extension. The main body of the cabin 122¾″ × 140¾″ is combined with a practical side addition of 82¼″ × 70″ thus forming a gentle L shape that looks natural and has a purpose rather than simply an afterthought. This arrangement makes the bunkie cabin more massive and at the same time, you can still recognize the characteristic bunkie cabin shape that has become a symbol of backyard hideouts and garden retreats in North America.

The loft space that is the most eye-catching architectural feature of the Alcove 160 with Loft bunkie cabin. With the loft extending to be an impressive 6’10″ in exterior height, it makes a sharp A-frame ceiling line which visually, one can only be drawn upward and even the small main floor would not seem cramped. Strategically located large windows throughout the bunkie cabin allow light to pour in, while the loft railing is a perfect vantage to look down into the living space below, something that adds both character and spaciousness not only to the loft but the rest of the bunkie cabin as well.

Apart from being versatile in design, the Alcove 160 with Loft bunkie cabin has another selling point the main 120 sq ft room which is well lit can be used as a living area with as many arrangements as the owner can imagine. Through a lovely barn-style door one can enter the 40 sq ft addition room that can be a private room for the home office, a mini meditation or reading corner, a small bath or storage area, or even a tiny kitchenette. Having such a flexible floor plan, the Alcove 160 with Loft bunkie cabin is good for different ways of living and types of properties.

The loft bedroom of 80 sq ft is one of the downsides. The compact staircase who is a favorite among ascents and descents leads to the loft which offers a warm bedroom that without the clever management of the room height and the strategic placing of windows, might be a little bit too tight. The position high up gives a treehouse exhilaration that so many owners associate quite naturally with romantic and comforting feelings, a serene little world above the living area that still allows a visual link with the one below.

The Alcove 160 with Loft bunkie cabin offers so much more than just indoor space. One is even tempted to say that it is a summer cabin awaiting more than just a few people. The porch in this case can be extended in a number of ways including the covered area across the front if owners decide to go for this, the addition of the side decks and the creation of the wrap-around platform. These outdoor couches become a real living room space during the summer therefore this cabin can easily accommodate more people than the actual square footage allotted to the cabin would suggest. Moreover, the porch is a great intermediary space between the inside and the nature out there, thus blending the line of what is inside and what is outside.

The big windows and porch space in fact make the cabin feel open and close to nature come spring and summer. The colors of wood and the small size of the space work really well in the fall season for one to be able to enjoy the crisp air and the colors of changing leaves. Miniature homes or cabins with sleeping lofts are preferred in the winter for their smaller size, resulting in easier heating and maintenance, thus the loft area can provide one with a nice nest-like feeling during starry nights. Some owners run their cabin all year round by adding proper insulation and heating systems.

The cabin model is equally great in terms of the property types and locations it can be placed in. From a stylish backyard office, guest room or a studio for the artists in suburbs to be full-time tiny homes or fascinating weekend cabin ones in the countryside. Moreover, you can locate your small cabin right at the lake or deep in the woods where your larger counterparts cannot fit.
