Lara is a remarkable solo builder who has created a beautiful tiny home that feels warm, rustic and full of heart. She built her home completely from scratch for just £12,000 and even milled her own timber to make it happen.
With no prior building experience and plenty of people telling her it couldn’t be done, Lara decided to give it a go anyway. The result is a handcrafted home that’s simple, personal and filled with creativity and charm.
Inside, her tiny home is thoughtfully styled with collected treasures, natural materials and clever design ideas that make the space feel inviting and full of character. Every detail reflects her artistic background and the care she put into every step of the build.
Building her tiny house didn’t just give Lara a place to live, it also helped her find a new direction in life. She was once a costume designer, but her experience building this home led her to a new career working as a set builder for the circus.
Her home is parked on a peaceful farm surrounded by horse stables and the gardens she has created herself. It’s a quiet, nature-filled setting that perfectly complements the way she has chosen to live.

Rasa and I are having an absolute blast filming in the UK! It’s amazing to see just how much the tiny house movement has grown since we were last here and Lara’s tiny home is such a strong example of the real heart behind all the momentum. Building this tiny home is such a huge accomplishment and the fact that she did it all herself and for the amazing cost of only £12,000 is so impressive. I absolutely love that she even milled the timber herself! We hope you enjoy the tour of this wonderful home. Thanks for watching and supporting our channel. With Love, Bryce & Rasa
I really want this tiny home! It’s truly fabulous, perfect!
What a beautiful home, great interview and, above all, what a charming and delightful lady!
“Life is filled with people who love to tell us all the reasons we can’t do something”….. so much truth in that. A lot of those reasons are lies. Albert Einstein once said:”Impossible is an excuse the unimaginative give to the ignorant” . same sentiment. Wake up people! You CAN!
The most beautiful tiny house I’ve ever seen!
Thank goodness for someone who doesn’t “love to cook” like everyone else on this type of videos. And a burnt cake – brilliant!
Love this tiny house! The design reflects her artistic personality!
Es klingt so künstlich , diese abgehackten KI Stimmen ….
Warum sprechen die Menschen nicht mehr selber …. ? Ich meine deutsche Übersetzer, echte Menschen …. Ist vielleicht billiger das so zu machen. Aber es ist anstrengend und abstoßend diesen KI Stimmen zuzuhören. Es ist ein schönes kleines Haus, aber das macht den Film weniger schön ….
I could not sleep without my pup next to me at night.

Your house is so cool and I love that you built it yourself. I can guess which circus you work for ❤❤ How do you move your home?
