Cornelia Tiny House for Sale – 256 sq ft – $185,000 | New Frontier Design

The Cornelia Tiny Home is New Frontier Design's artist-focused retreat, created when best-selling author Cornelia Funke needed a cozy backwoods guest house and office to write her next novel. Starting at $185,000, this model is a peaceful palace for creatives, couples, or anyone seeking a nature-connected workspace with refined craftsmanship and whimsical detailing.

The Cornelia measures 24 feet long by 8 feet 6 inches wide by 13 feet 6 inches high, with 256 square feet including the loft.

A 24-foot custom triple-axle trailer supports the home, while interiors showcase maple board-and-batten siding and ceiling, solid reclaimed hand-hewn hardwood flooring, and a comprehensive custom stain and paint package.

Designed with writers in mind, the great room includes a solid maple drop-down writing desk, floating cedar library shelves with rolling ladder, concealed utility closet, Pella large sliding window, and custom cabinetry with storage chest. The kitchen offers stainless faucets, an 18-inch stainless sink, butcher block countertops, floating cedar shelves, custom cabinetry with hidden-lock Hafele knobs, a two-burner electric cooktop, and countertop convection oven. The king loft delivers a 270-degree panoramic view, accessed by a custom oak library ladder with sliding hardware, recessed LED cans, and retractable reading lights.

The bathroom includes a custom sliding pocket door with full-length mirror, Nature's Head waterless toilet, designer wall sconce, 36-by-36-inch tile shower with glass door, and wall-mount vanity sink. Dimmable LED lighting throughout uses half-mirror Edison sconces, retractable desk lamps, recessed cans, and interior and exterior valance strips to set mood for work or rest. Optional off-grid packages add solar, water systems, and Separett composting toilets. Buyers can customize paint, sinks, countertops, backsplash, flooring, and fixtures within the standard Cornelia floor plan. Confirm current pricing and lead times with New Frontier.
