This adorable 240-square-foot tiny house on skids in North Carolina was built by Bonsai Homes and purchased by the current owner, who has been using it as a guest space and is now interested in selling it. They’re asking $69,950, and it’ll need to be moved professionally since it’s not on a trailer.
The cabin has a double loft configuration which is connected by a large catwalk, making it easy to move from one side to the other.
