There are some tiny housemakers I love and some that I loathe. My preference is based on how they respond to media queries: Some are rude, some too cocky to reply, but there are a few, kind enough to not only share information about their models but are also expressive and concerned about the future of the tiny house movement.
Decathlon Tiny Homes, a Texas-based tiny house builder, has always been cordial to media queries and so to their customers, which is why Jerry Terry and his team have been successful in selling over 50 tiny homes to date. Decathlon is now out with its new tiny house dubbed the Mini Messenia.
Inspired by the company’s infamous Poseidon model, the Mini Messenia tiny house measures 32 feet long and is poised on a triple-axle trailer. It is finished in smart siding exterior and accoutered with a 2-feet eight-inch outswing door and a myriad of windows that allow air, light, and ventilation. Another notable feature of the exterior worth talking about is the F-Wave roofing. Made of commercial-grade polymer, the roofing is stronger, more durable, and lighter. Overall, the exterior is durable and equally elegant, courtesy of different colors that have been used in finishing.
The interior is quite sophisticated. Just like the other tiny homes from the Decathlon Tiny Homes foundry, the Mini Messenia features an open living room. For a little change, the makers have furnished floating shelves in the living area that double as a bench or function as storage nooks, depending on user requirements. We can also spot a projector in the room. There is no mention of a TV, but there is enough space to add a wall-mounted television or a projection screen.
The living room also has a storage-integrated staircase, which leads to the solitary loft of the tiny house. Capacious enough to sleep two people, the loft functions as a typical tiny house bedroom boasting a low ceiling and a set of drawers placed alongside a shelf.
Downstairs is the kitchen of the Mini Messenia tiny home with an array of features from butcher block countertop and storage-friendly cabinets to appliances (fridge, microwave, oven, two-burner cooktop), and 18k Multihead HVAC mini split, the kitchen is incredibly functional.

A little ahead is the bathroom of the tiny house. The space is equipped with a glass-enclosed shower, toilet, a separate washer and dryer, and a vanity with loads of storage. At the extreme end of the house is the main-floor bedroom. It sleeps two people comfortably and features a couple of wardrobes as well.
Decathlon Tiny Homes also offers a few add-ons to the dwelling. This includes a couple of skylights, a retractable ceiling fan, an under-counter oven, a folding bartop, and more. The Poseidon lineup starts at $112,750, this new model should cost around the same price, but we are not fully confident of it at the time of writing. We will update the information as and when the company divulges it. For now you can visit the Decathlon Tiny Homes website for more details.
