Hey there! I’m moving to Chicago in March 2018 so, unfortunately, I need to sell which breaks my heart. I hope to find someone great to take it on!
My house is about 2.5 years old and 8 feet wide X 20 feet long on a towable trailer. It has a metal roof, wooden flooring, and Zip insulation.

In the main house space there is a small sink with cabinets and a nice stainless steel propane, three-burner stove I installed about 1 year ago. Opposite the counter top and stove, is a wardrobe from Ikea and another wooden countertop that I just made and installed. There is an energy star mini freezer/fridge below the counter top.
Next to the kitchen area is the bathroom which is about 8X3 feet. There are shelves built into one wall and a nice shower around 3X3 ft in size. I have a compost toilet which I love, but there are also normal toilet hookups in case you ever want to connect to a sewer system. The shower/water system is provided by a normal garden house and there is a tankless propane water heater which works wonderfully. Aside from the kitchen and bathroom there is a little living area with a mounted TV and little  love seat. There is an AC window unit, and last winter, I installed a propane space heater for warmth in winter!
It has a lofted sleeping area that fits a queen sized bed. The loft also has a little window to let the breeze in on cool nights, electrical outlets, and secret storage compartments where I put valuables.
The house comes with a portable solar unit from Sol-Solutions. The exact unit can be found here http://www.sol-solutions. com/off-grid-solar/solman-clas sic-portable-solar-generators. html. I love this little solar unit. It provides all my power, aside from the electricity for the AC. Unfortunately during the winter when there is less sunlight, it can run low/run out making the fridge difficult to keep cold so having a back up electricity supply during the winter months is ideal. You can recharge it with a generator or by plugging it into an electrical socket. I just camp out whenever this happens which honestly is pretty nice.
When it comes to utilities, I go through about 1 20-lb propane tank every 2 month so a $20 propane refill every 1.5-2 months. Other than that, you just need a hose hookup and some sun!
The house, solar, and the porch I made from pallet wood for $25,000!
Let me know what you think and what questions you have! Serious inquiries only!

- 25k Tiny House in Charleston - November 14, 2017
Nice and very small. Like it but would probably not work for me.
What is the land situation? Do you rent? Would I have to relocate it?
Can you tell me where exactly in Charleston this is? I will be moving to the Carolinas from Massachusetts so trying to pinpoint my move location.
Thank you!
Double that solar array and you might just never run outta juice. I’d get a larger propane tank, if possible, for fewer refills.
When I had a home on wheels the whole point was *taking it with me* when I relocated. You have a very spiffy little house here – why isn’t it going with you to chicago? Will it be inadequate to the more heavy climate there?
Presently, tiny houses aren’t allowed in most Chicago suburbs… For those on wheels, most of the metro Chicago area only allows mobile homes in zoned mobile home/RV park areas which are rarely allowed.
There are efforts to change this but progress is slow and there are a lot of issues to work through in Chicago…
Hi – I love this and am interested in purchasing. How hard is it to move?
I would like to know more about the house
