This was a lightly used eOne that ESCAPE had touched up and put back on the market. The layout runs the length of the home: a full bathroom at one end, a living area with a Smart TV at the other, and a staircase between them rising to two unusually tall lofts joined by a walkway — which is what makes the upper level function as a storey rather than two separate crawl spaces.

The kitchen is all-electric with stainless appliances, an induction cooktop, a tall refrigerator, and a washer/dryer unit, with generous storage worked in. Large windows run down the living area, which is the main reason a home this narrow reads as bright rather than boxed in.

Editor’s note: this unit was listed at $79,630 with a $5K discount in mid-2023 and has sold. The eOne is still built to order — current listings are linked below.

Here’s a really neat floating home that’s moored in Sarasota Bay in Florida, where you can stay for a couple of nights. It’s an off-grid adventure, but they have some solar power and plumbing to make your stay as comfortable as possible.

The one-room houseboat has a couch that turns into a bed, a little kitchenette, and a bathroom that allows for a 5-minute shower. The coolest feature of this vacation home, however, is the rooftop patio where two lounge chairs sit basking in the sun!

Salina and Marcelo met in California while Marcelo was living his dream as a professional skateboarder. They got married and traveled for Marcelo’s competitions. But their rent in San Diego was crippling, and they wanted more out of their lives. They decided on van life, but couldn’t find an affordable van — so they bought a 90 sq. ft. short bus instead!

It took them 6 months from buying the bus until they moved into it, and they did a great job! There’s a hidden bathroom, a kitchen space, and a fixed queen bed in the back. They also have a unique table covered with pictures of their travels. What part do you love the most?

A third-generation carpenter built this stunning 324-square-foot tiny house as an ode to his elders. Inspired by the Colorado Rockies, the tiny house features a beautiful green metal inlay on the exterior, designed to look like a mountainscape.

The inside carries on the cozy cabin vibes, with lots of wood tones all around and plenty of wood paneling. There are two loft bedrooms (one accessible via a storage staircase), and a gorgeous kitchen with navy cabinets. In the back, you’ll find a 3/4 bathroom with a cedar-lined shower stall, and in the front, an L-shaped built-in couch provides a spot to relax. It’s for sale in Boulder, CO and you can buy it for $110K.

Nick owns some awesome property near the Cascade Mountains, and while he originally intended to use it for personal vacations, he realized later it was a good opportunity to make money doing some short-term rentals. The “Clay Baby” is a shed kit he purchased and had delivered pre-built back in 2019.

At the time, the shed cost $8k, and he put another $22k into adding plumbing, electricity, and finishes to create a cute vacation cabin for a couple. There’s a bathroom, cozy living space, kitchen with a dishwasher, and two loft bedrooms. Could you live in this?

When Ginnie and Austin met during Army basic training in 2017, neither of them imagined they’d end up living full-time in a pink school bus. But after both were stationed at Fort Bragg in North Carolina and serving four and a half years, the couple left the military with a clear plan: build a home on wheels, use the GI Bill to chart a new course, and see the country they’d served — with their two pets by their side.

Their creation — a 32-foot 2001 Freightliner FS-65 they named “The Bumpin Bus” — is one of the most thoughtfully designed boho skoolies we’ve featured. Built over 14 months for a total of $32,000 (including the $4,000 bus purchase), it packs a spacious eight-foot-counter kitchen, a cozy bedroom with a ceiling-mounted projector, a two-section bathroom with tiled shower and composting toilet, and dedicated spaces for their dog Lucy and cat Waffles. The “pink” color was actually an accident — they wanted light orange on top and bright orange on the bottom, but the Sherwin-Williams tractor paint had other plans.

What sets this build apart isn’t just its cheerful exterior. It’s the attention to full-time livability — from the Havelock Wool insulation in the walls to the Starlink dish on the roof, every decision was made by two people who knew they’d be calling this bus home every single day.

This is a beautiful little houseboat docked near the Gulf of Mexico in Clearwater, Florida. It has one bedroom in the back, a 3/4 bathroom with a lovely tiled shower stall, and a nearly-full kitchen that has a large fridge and a little cooktop.

There’s also a little porch off the front of the houseboat with gorgeous views and a couple of chairs where you can drink a nice cup of coffee. Both sides of the home have big porthole windows that let in lots of light. What’s your favorite feature of this floating house?

Turns out, old mills make great tiny homes! This stone windmill in Portugal still has the old gears that made it function up in the bedroom, along with vaulted wooden ceilings that make you feel like you’re hidden away in a fairytale tower.

But even if the stone looks rather Medieval, the accommodations are not. There’s a full bathroom, a kitchenette with a cooktop and fridge, and even a cozy fireplace for cool nights. You can eat outdoors and look out at the breathtaking countryside.

Brittany had all the normal stuff — a spouse, a house, and a business she was successfully running. But she got divorced and later met a couch surfer whose life she was envious of. He called her out, saying she could do what he was doing and travel the world. So she sold her house, sold her share of the business, and took off on a backpacking world tour for two years!

Eventually, she wanted a little more stability and built out a van. The van had so many mechanical issues, however, that she decided to get a new one — and this time she got something newer and professionally built out by Dave and Matt Vans. The build is gorgeous! Enjoy the tour below.
