Each time I break the news of a new tiny house on wheels, it sounds like I am announcing a professional wrestler. As bizarre as it may sound, there are striking parallels between the two. Both attract attention, have impressive build, and come with hefty price tags. While Wrestlemania season may be over, the tiny house fever is everlasting. To that accord, Texas-based tiny house maker Decathlon Tiny Homes has unveiled an incredible tiny house dubbed the Phoenix.
Just weeks ago, Canadian-based tiny house maker Acorn Tiny Homes unveiled a mobile home of the same name. However, there are vast dissimilarities between both makers and their approach to constructing a tiny house. As a result, the Phoenix tiny house by Decathlon is very different from what Acorn Tiny Homes offers.
Measuring 32 feet long and 8.6 feet wide, the Phoenix tiny house comes built on a triple-axle trailer. It offers 272 square feet of space on the main floor with a 68-square-foot space in the loft, hence accommodating four people with ease. Despite its humongous size, this cute habitat can be pulled by a one-ton truck.
The Phoenix tiny home boasts a smart-siding exterior with an outswing door and egress windows that allow light inside. Inside, the tiny home on wheels features an open living room, a gourmet kitchen, a bathroom, a main-floor bedroom, and a secondary bedroom in the loft section.
The living room features a small window ledge that can be used to place planters and other essentials. In addition, the huge window allows dwellers to form a connection with nature by offering picturesque views. Not to mention, a skylight that keeps the living room lit and airy.
Ahead is the kitchen of the tiny home. Boasting a countertop, an array of cabinets, a sink, and a gaggle of electric appliances (microwave, oven, refrigerator, and many others), the kitchen is functional and aesthetic.
Move a little forward and you will discover the gorgeous bathroom of the Phoenix tiny home. I like how Decathlon Tiny Homes doesn’t make bathrooms a hassle or squeeze them in one corner. Just like the other homes constructed by Decathlon Tiny Homes, the Phoenix has a bathroom with a washer/dryer, toilet, vanity, and glass-enclosed shower.

The Phoenix tiny house features two bedrooms. Stationed at one end of the house, the main-floor bedroom sleeps two people and also features a couple of closets. The second bedroom is in the loft section and can be accessed via a storage-integrated staircase. Despite its low ceiling, the loft is capacious enough to sleep two people.
I am not familiar with the exact price of the Phoenix tiny house, but since it’s based on the company’s popular Poseidon model, I estimate it to cost around $112,700.
It is the sad truth that the tiny house movement is drifting toward loftier prices and sizes, away from its founding pillars of affordability and downsized form. But if luxury is your aim and you’ve got heavy pockets, this might be the right pick for you.
