Modern and compact, the Hudson by Crawford Compact Homes blends sleek modern design with the practical features needed for full-time tiny living. At just 255 square feet, this tiny home on wheels delivers a clean layout, light-filled interior, and clever storage—all without feeling cramped.
Designed and built in Canada, the Hudson is fully winterized for year-round living and well-suited for colder climates. It’s a great fit for anyone looking to downsize, build a backyard guest house, or place a stylish Airbnb rental on their land. Watch a full walkthrough video at the end!
The Hudson features a living room on the main floor, including a full-sized couch, large windows, and flexible open space that can accommodate a small coffee table or small desk setup & a mounted TV. The clean lines and neutral palette make it feel larger than it is.
The kitchen is impressively equipped for a tiny space. It includes a four-burner cooktop, convection oven, deep stainless sink, and vent hood—making it fully capable of supporting everyday cooking. Sleek cabinets and drawers provide ample storage while keeping the aesthetic clean and modern.
Across from the oven, there is an apartment-size fridge, a dishwasher, & tons of built-in storage in the stairs!
At the far end of the home, the full bathroom features a modern vanity, flush toilet, and standing shower with clean white tile. A washer/dryer combo unit is tucked away—another perk that makes this tiny home feel truly livable.
The main loft in the Hudson is designed to comfortably fit a queen-size mattress with enough space to sit up in bed—ideal for winding down with a book or watching a show. What sets it apart from many tiny home lofts is the thoughtful built-in storage, including drawers and open cubbies integrated into the stairway and loft itself. These touches make it easier to keep the sleeping area organized and clutter-free without sacrificing valuable floor space.
Above the living area, you’ll find a second loft accessible by a removable ladder. While it’s not tall enough to stand in, it provides plenty of room for storing off-season items, extra linens, or bins. Some owners might even use it as a sleeping nook for kids or guests. Its location above the living room keeps it tucked out of the way, maintaining the openness of the main floor while still maximizing vertical space.
Thoughtfully built for year-round use in Canada, the Hudson includes high-efficiency insulation, heating, and air conditioning. Its bright interior, functional layout, and stylish finishes make it a strong option for anyone looking to simplify without sacrificing comfort.
Whether used as a primary residence or an elevated guest space, the Hudson delivers form and function in a beautiful, compact package.
