The idea of never needing to pay another utility bill again is the stuff dreams are made of, but for Perlin, that’s his new reality after building himself an impressive off-the-grid tiny house compound.
I say compound because after completing his original tiny house he didn’t stop there. He has since expanded with a second tiny home which functions as an office / sleep out for guests, a workshop with car-port, and a storage container which is now used for storing materials for the further tiny homes he plans to construct in the future!
As an off-the-grid paradise, this place is set up exceptionally well. The abundant solar system provides enough energy to not only power his home and workshop, but also enables him to charge his electric vehicle. Rainwater collection from the tiny house and also the extended shed and carport space gives him abundant rainwater. He even has a bio-digesting toilet which provides his cooking gas. This 100% off grid set-up is very impressive.
Getting to this point wasn’t easy though and he had some trials and tribulations along the way. Wait until you see the damage done by the 2022 floods! EEK!
All is well that ends well though, and now, his set-up has fully recovered and is running better than ever! We hope you enjoy the tour.
Perlin has some big plans for his tiny endeavours in the future! You can follow his journey and find out more about what he is up to here on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@UCBY6RoYV_966rbMSfe0Cgfw

Perlin has created such an amazing home for himself here and this has to be one of the best off-the-grid set-ups we’ve seen so far. It’s crazy to see all that happened to this house during the floods too! We hope you enjoy this tour. Thank-you for watching this episode and supporting our channel! With Love, Bryce & Rasa
stunning
True freedom, it seems, is paying as little to the government as you possibly can. Being left alone, not needing handouts, iust living off the land.
Does your company ever donate Tiny Homes?
Congratulations Perlin (great name for someone who builds homes btw) I love your Tiny Home complex. I can see you have put your heart and soul into it. Have you thought of offering to buy the bit of land you have, that would surely make it complete. Wow the floods, nice to see the orchardist didn’t just rip out his trees, so many farmers seem to give up too easily.. What a gut wrench losing your roof and having so much water damage, it must have broken your heart and possibly gave your then girlfriend and in-site into Tiny Home living she hadn’t bargained for.. she should have stuck around, look at it now!! Awesome!! Love that honey coloured couch it goes so well with your decore..the timbers are beautiful…and who doesn’t like blue?? The pebble shower base is fantastic and you and I both said at the same time “its great on your feet,” watch the concrete around the pebbles though, mould can sneak in when you aren’t watching.. I hope you sealed them.. Well done Perlin good luck with your new business venture, thanks Bryce for another great discovery and to Rasa for great photography.. really love this one cheers from Western Australia
What an incredibly talented guy you are! I just love your home! Rich in color, texture and creativity! Well done!
I want to build a tiny home just to show Bryce an unflushed poo when he says “can we have a look in the bathroom” 😂
Time 11:01 a real Chef, like Perlin, has a spartan knife collection, each knife used for a specific task: cutting bread, paring knife, steak knives and a clever
No need for the big shopping stores 34 piece knives set.
He is a very handy man who is amazing with all he can do.
I think he is rather rich and that helped.
What’s the use of “Tiny” when you end up with all these buildings. Like why carry 100 pennies instead of one dollar.
What a beautiful home and property. Watching from Central California ocean coast
