Tiny Homes from Carriage Houses Northwest Provide A Variety of Options for Northwest Living

Tiny homes in the Pacific Northwest are for more than just affordable housing - they are providing a wide variety of home improvement and housing solutions for Northwest living.  Multigenerational living, alternatives to home remodels/home additions, “she” sheds, man caves, building on remote properties and living off the grid are just some of the many ways tiny homes are being used in the region.

Marysville-based Carriage Houses Northwest is a tiny home builder who offers a variety of types of tiny homes for Northwest living.  These include modular units constructed off site then transported to a property for placement on a foundation, tiny homes on wheels and custom built tiny homes.  Their homes are used in the Pacific Northwest for backyard offices, detached accessory dwelling units (DADUs), vacation properties and more.  Many homeowners opt for Carriage Houses Northwest as an alternative to building a home addition, or as backyard cottages for extended family, backyard office or rental income.

A unique feature of Carriage Houses Northwest’s modular tiny homes is that they leave the factory with the building inspection by Labor & Industries completed and ready for placement on location.  Because the modular homes are built off-site and then placed on the foundation, they can be installed in as little as a day.  Tiny homes on wheels come with the Washington State Department of Labor & Industry’s RV insignia, a certification that is recognized in all 50 states.

Tiny homes, of course, are used for affordable housing in the Pacific Northwest too.  Carriage Houses Northwest, for example, has models specifically geared for affordable housing.  As well, the company builds tiny homes for several non-profits, including shelters for Tacoma and Seattle tiny home encampments and for veterans.
