The Minimalist is a sleek, modern tiny house on wheels in Monterey, Tennessee, listed for sale at just $32,000. Newly built in 2026 by Modular Dwelling, this 8-foot-wide, 208-square-foot home pairs blacked-out metal siding and a mono-pitch roofline with a warm cedar-clad entry alcove and covered porch, while inside, a vaulted wood ceiling, whitewashed plank walls, and oversized windows create a calm, light-filled space designed for clutter-free living.

A Bold Black Exterior with a Cedar Entry
The Minimalist makes its statement with restraint. Standing-seam-style metal siding wraps the home in matte black, broken only by crisp window openings and a striking cedar-lined alcove at the entry. That recessed nook does double duty: it frames the glass entry door and creates a small covered porch, a sheltered spot to kick off your shoes or sit with a coffee. The mono-pitch roof keeps the silhouette clean and modern.

Clean Lines from Every Angle
Set on a double-axle trailer, the home reads as a tidy, gabled box from the side, with a long picture window bringing light into the main living area. The all-black exterior and steel roof are low-maintenance and give it a contemporary, almost architectural presence that stands apart from the rustic look of many tiny homes.

A Bright, Open Interior
Step through the glass door and the home opens up far more than its footprint suggests. A vaulted ceiling clad in rich stained wood draws the eye upward, while whitewashed plank walls and light wood flooring keep everything bright and airy. Large windows on multiple walls, including a 6’x5′ and 5’x5′ window in the living area, flood the space with natural light and frame the surrounding views.

A Streamlined Kitchenette
The 6-foot kitchenette keeps things simple and functional. Matte black lower cabinets sit beneath a butcher block counter, paired with a black gooseneck faucet, an undermount sink, and an induction cooktop, with upper cabinets adding storage above. A window over the sink brings in light, and the whole run is built for efficient, everyday cooking without wasted space.

A Private Bathroom and Loft
A handsome whitewashed barn door on black hardware slides open to reveal the bathroom, a 3’6″ space outfitted with a shower, vanity, and flush toilet. Above the bathroom sits a loft with ladder access and its own small window, offering extra sleeping or storage space while leaving the main floor open and uncluttered.

The Floor Plan
The layout is divided into three simple zones: a bedroom/living area at one end, the bathroom in the center, and the kitchenette and a fold-down table near the entry, with the covered porch tucked under the roofline. It is a practical, efficient flow that makes smart use of every square foot.
