Couple transforms old school bus into a dream home for two

The tiny house movement can add two more converts to the list now that the Pucketts took this old school bus and turned it into a cozy home for two. Despite the limited space, the couple even found room for their dog, Starbuck, and their car, Mr. Butters.

The interior is basic, but it has everything a young couple needs: a kitchen, a lounge, a bedroom, a bathroom, and even a dining table. The windows stretch along both sides, opening up the space and providing plenty of natural light.

All the space is used carefully and comes with multi-purpose furniture. The couch lifts up to reveal a large storage cupboard and is also the guest bed. The dining room table folds up and provides the roof for Starbuck’s kennel.

The kitchen has a gas range, a full refrigerator, a sink, simple wood countertops, and custom beadboard cabinets made by Julie’s father. Many bits and pieces were handmade by the couple and their friends and family, including artwork, cabinetry, furniture, lamps, and textiles.

Just like the rest of the bus's features, the kitchen cabinets are optimized with sliding tiered shelves and child locks, which keep them from bursting open when the bus is in motion.

The driver's seat is perfect for putting your feet up on the dash and enjoying some quiet reading time.

By far the best decision the Pucketts made was installing this wood burning stove. Thanks to all the plants, art, and natural wood surfaces, the renovated bus was already cozy, but the warmth and smell of a wood stove always takes comfort to a new level.

The bedroom is located at the back of the bus and doubles as their library. Tucked away in the corner, this cozy sleeping nook comes with a fluffy duvet, an air conditioner, and even a TV.

Just like the couch, the bed lifts up using hydraulics to reveal more storage space. There is also a wardrobe closet in the hallway, next to the wood stove, hidden behind a simple fabric panel.

Along the hallway that leads to the bedroom, you can find the two-piece bathroom. On the left is a full stand-up shower and on the right is a wash closet. The shower is framed by corrugated metal sheets and cordoned off with a shower curtain. The space also provides more storage for personal effects.

The two-piece bathroom is separated from the bedroom by a sliding partition and includes a sink and toilet. The couple chose to decorate with blues and greys to create a beachside coastal cottage atmosphere.
