16 ft affordable tiny house, Digi Mart USA News: A newly listed tiny house measuring just 16 ft (4.9 m) long is being offered for sale at US$34,500, according to a New Atlas report. The unnamed model is built on a double-axle trailer and has 128 sq ft (11.9 sq m) of ground floor space, which the publisher notes is considerably smaller than a typical North American tiny house.
The exterior is finished in dark gray board-and-batten-style siding with a metal roof, and includes a very small entrance porch. Inside, the majority of the floor space is given to a combined kitchen and dining area, with no conventional living room.
The kitchen includes a sink, a microwave, a fridge/freezer and a fair amount of cabinetry, along with a small dining table for two.
A sliding door leads to a very small bathroom with a walk-in shower, a vanity sink and a flushing toilet. The model has two lofts.
The main loft is reached by a fixed space-saving ladder and serves as the bedroom, with a double bed and a hot-water tank installed at the foot of the bed. A smaller secondary loft is reached by a removable ladder and appears suitable for storage.
The report describes the layout as involving clear compromises, as the home is not intended for hosting guests. The information comes from a single publisher article that has not been independently verified.
