If you’re thinking tiny house living means sacrificing comfort or space, the Mockingbird by Pratt Homes proves otherwise. At 390-square feet (about 36 m²) this park model home blends clever design, full-sized amenities, and a light, airy layout that feels much larger than its footprint. With vaulted ceilings, oversized windows, and quality finishes throughout, the Mockingbird sets a new standard for what small-scale living can look like.

Walk into the Mockingbird and you’re greeted by an open, inviting living area with plenty of space for a large couch. Pine ceilings and natural wood beams draw your eye upward while oversized windows let light flood in, making the space feel both bright and spacious. There’s enough room here not only for lounging but also for entertaining or working from home. The porch (front or screened back) adds outdoor extension and helps blur the line between inside and nature.

On one side of the living room, the kitchen holds its own with full-size appliances—refrigerator, range, microwave and full cabinetry. Unlike many tiny-homes where cabinetry is minimal, this one offers realistic storage and prep space. A sleek white-on-white backsplash, stainless-steel accents, and natural wood elements bring crispness and warmth. A nearby small dining table comfortably serves two to four people and overlooks the large windows, giving you views while you eat.

The main-floor bedroom is a highlight. With space designed for a king-sized bed (or large queen), it delivers comfort seldom found in such a compact home. Vaulted ceilings continue into this room, enhancing headroom and openness. Windows allow natural light, and with careful planning the room offers privacy while remaining integrated into the home’s flow.


The full bathroom maintains the home’s high standard of finish. There’s a shower with modern tile, a vanity with quality fixtures, and everything you’d expect beyond a standard tiny-home bath. It’s designed to feel like part of a full-sized home—not an afterthought.



One of the cleverest touches in the Mockingbird is its smart storage. Built-in cabinetry in the kitchen and bedroom, overhead shelving, and functional nooks make organizing easy. It shows that living small doesn’t mean compromising on storage or practicality.
What truly elevates this home is the wrap-around screened porch (or optional back porch), which acts as living space in its own right. With exposed wood posts and a natural cedar tone, it’s a nod to modern cabin style and gives you a comfortable place to relax outdoors while remaining sheltered and bug-free.


The 399-sq ft Mockingbird by Pratt Homes is proof that small house living can still feel big. With vaulted ceilings, full-sized appliances, generous bedroom space and a porch that brings in the outdoors, it ticks every box for comfort, style and livability. If you’re looking for a tiny-home solution that doesn’t require sacrifice, this model is worth a serious look.
