Room at the top: Kilimanjaro emphasizes loft (and kitchen) space

When we took a look at the Castle Peak, an early build from fledging West Coast outfit Tiny Mountain Houses, last year, we mentioned that they were in the process of creating a couple of additional models. In fact they now offer over a dozen different designs, although most of them haven’t matured to finished builds just yet. Here’s one that has, the Mt. Kilimanjaro, which continues the Pereyra family tradition of functional affordability in a 196-square-foot package with a base price of $55,940 (with some upgrades, the one in the pictures was $66,565). A big central kitchen with standard apartment-sized appliances occupies fully half of the 24-foot THOW’s length; it’s divided from the smaller living area just inside the entry door by a bar counter that also serves as the dining table. The bathroom is complete with a sink, toilet, 36-inch shower stall, and even a washer/dryer combo – but as it’s less than six feet deep, that means there’s next to no elbow room inside. (Or space to take decent photos, for that matter; please excuse the lack thereof.) The loft, on the other hand, is really pretty large, extending all the way over the kitchen and adding over 130 square feet of additional floor space. It’s accessed via a ladder that leads up to a square cut-out in the middle, and has a generous 48 inches of headroom.
