In a time when tiny houses are becoming luxurious and pricier by the minute, Dragon Tiny Homes has introduced the Genesis to bring the tiny living movement back to its roots. This compact, towable home is offered at a modest price of just $39,500, and it is simple yet super comfortable and cozy. The Genesis is constructed on a double-axle trailer and measures 16 ft (4.9 m) in length. This makes it exceptionally compact, even when compared to European models like Baluchon’s Cardabelle. Its size is ideal for those who enjoy traveling frequently, although it’s not designed for family living. The home features an exterior finished with engineered wood and relies on a standard RV-style hookup for power.

The entrance of the Genesis leads directly into a cozy living area, which is modest yet functional. It is equipped with a small amount of space allocated for seating arrangements. Just a few steps away lies the compact kitchen, equipped with essential amenities such as an electric cooktop, a sink, a refrigerator, and a few cabinets for basic storage needs.
For those seeking enhanced functionality, Dragon Tiny Homes offers optional upgrades to cater to a broader range of lifestyle needs. Potential homeowners can choose to add an oven, a dishwasher, and a built-in dining or work table to maximize the use of available space. Also, some upper cabinetry can be installed to provide extra storage solutions, ensuring that the entire kitchen area is effectively utilized.
Access to the bathroom is conveniently located through a sliding door adjacent to the kitchen. The bathroom is equipped with a shower, a sink, and a flushing toilet. There is also a small laundry area near the bathroom, thoughtfully designed to accommodate a washer/dryer unit, making efficient use of the space available.
The sleeping quarters in the Genesis are positioned upstairs, accessed via a staircase ingeniously integrated with storage compartments. This typical tiny house loft features a low ceiling and comfortably accommodates a queen-size bed. The layout also includes a designated area for a nightstand or additional storage, ensuring that personal items are within easy reach.
While the base price of the Genesis is around $39,500, the price will go up if buyers choose to add a dishwasher or oven. This will increase the overall cost; however, for those interested in exploring other options, Dragon Tiny Homes also offers several other affordable models that are worth checking out. But if the Genesis’s price suits potential buyers, then it is definitely an excellent purchase for those wanting to experience an authentic and true micro-living setup without any of the excessive bells and whistles.
