This Cute & Affordable Tiny House Costs Just $20,000
Matthew has been living with his partner and their four pets for a month in a beautiful converted van at the Nomadic Desert glamping resort in Jacumba Hot Springs.
Priced at just $20,000, this is a very affordable tiny house, which makes it very appealing, especially as the beginner tiny house option. Let’s take a look at what the house is like on this tour by Tiny House Giant Journey:
The house is a 20-foot by 8-foot trailer, weighing around 5,300 pounds. The main reason for its affordability is the fact that it is made of recycled metal panels.
What you get for the price is the frame, the plumbing, and the electrical; after that, you can customize the interior space according to your preferences.
The tiny house is equipped with an off-grid package, including solar panels on the roof, 800 amp hours of battery storage, and a water catchment system. The 100-gallon water tank collects rainwater, providing a water source for the residents. There is also an unlimited hot water supply.
Despite its compact size, the tiny house offers a surprisingly spacious interior. There is a living room that is filled with light from the three windows, a small but efficient kitchen, a full-sized shower, and a composting toilet. With excellent insulation, the house is cozy and warm.
As the downside, due to the metal construction, the cell signal inside the house may be weaker, requiring residents to move closer to windows or even go outside for better reception.
The environmentally friendly construction, off-grid capabilities, and spacious interior of this tiny house make it an attractive choice for those seeking a minimalist lifestyle on a budget.
As affordable housing continues to be a pressing issue, innovative solutions like this tiny house present a very appealing and accessible option.
