This shipping container home is only 20′ in length, but even with it’s pocket-sized it’s everything you need to live tiny.

I love houses like this, but the prices are ridiculous. Their cheapest basic-shell model is $22K or $150/per sqft (before what you lose in walls and insulation). Then they are claiming on their site that this home is much cheaper than a traditional home built the same way, that you are saving on structural work and unnecessary construction. Price for delivery at 3 or 4 dollars a mile isn’t included. I just don’t see any kind of deal or savings
I agree.
The savings are huge if you can DYI.
I meant 110 per sqft…
Sweet finally a tiny house with a roof top deck..id add a small bedroom uptop..enlarge the vathroom area to fit a tub and a second deck above the bedroom
Yeah, in other words make it bigger than it is and add another bedroom???
Pretty much..i like the downstairs area, just no real sleeping area
I agree with adding another RR box on the top for a bedroom if it isn’t too high to go under bridges. I think the Shouse’s are a better deal. I am looking and analyzing too as I want to go to ND and find some land.
I think if I were to fix anything it would be to seal up the shower to keep water from going into the walls. Other than that very nice. Great little cabin.
The sink is the best feature in the kitchen but how in the world can you cook in a sink?
I like the flooring and love the rooftop deck. I assume you sleep in the seating area? It doesn’t look comfortable for lounging or sleeping. I also don’t see anyway to cook and I don’t see a refrigerator. I do like container homes but this one is missing way too many vital features.
