UPDATE: Uma is sold. Today, we’re introducing you to “The Secret Van Man,” a camper conversion business in the United Kingdom that’s creating gorgeous vans. Like many conversion companies, this one started with a personal passion project — a 2020 van conversion that went right!

Below, Joseph shares his story about getting into van life and then into professional van-building, and the pictures are of his latest creation — the Uma! This campervan may be compact, but it’s bursting with features so one can live the road. The asking price? £12,995, which translates to about $16,414. Let us know what you think in the comments.

It’s hard to find a tiny house already on land that you can rent or purchase, and this gorgeous double loft tiny house on wheels has a prime location at Acony Bell Tiny Home Community in North Carolina. You can take over the lease for the lot, at $700/month, and enjoy the private location that faces the gorgeous woods. Most homes in the community are lined up, with a nice buffer between them, but this one sits apart against the edge of the village.

You enter the home in the living room, which includes a couch and seating for two that looks out the window. A U-shaped kitchen takes up one end of the home, while a bathroom sits at the other end, with a tiled shower stall and washer/dryer unit. The house has two queen-sized lofts, and one is easily accessible via stairs with a neat pipe railing I’ve never seen before! You can purchase the home for $115,000 and take over the lot lease. What do you think?

This is the Fjallstuga A-Frame plans by the Small House Catalog. While we’ve shown you an earlier version of these, they recently updated the plans and added some new renderings to show off the possibilities!

The great thing about these plans is the first-floor bedroom at the back of the A-Frame, which means you don’t have to climb a ladder or stairs into a loft bedroom. That space could be used as an office, storage, or a place for kids. The plans have a 3/4 bathroom, a compact kitchenette, and a spacious living room with a wood-burning stove. The plans are available from the Small House Catalog for $149.99. What do you think?

CargoHome builds impressive shipping container homes; this “short” container home is no exception. The rooftop deck, which you access via a spiral staircase, adds square footage with a view! Plus, the large glass front doors open wide to let the outside in during nice weather.

To “fit it all in” without a loft, the house has a Murphy bed, a couch by day, and sleeping space by night. The home also has a galley kitchen, bar seating, and a small bathroom at the very back of the house. According to the listing, you can purchase this model, as pictured, for approximately $83,438 in Elm Mott, Texas. What do you think?

After traveling the world with nothing but a backpack, living tiny was nothing new to Gemma. But building a tiny house from the trailer up? Well, that was a new challenge, but one she met gladly with the help of her dad.

She has a whole off-grid setup, including solar panels, a rainwater catchment system, and a composting toilet. Recycled materials, such as donated insulation, helped keep costs down, and she chose to use MDF instead of plywood to save money. You’re going to love the tour of this creative space!

Angie is a veteran who was sent overseas in one of the first waves of the war in Iraq, where she was exposed to horrible things that left her struggling with PTSD and her overall mental health when she got home. Eventually, she tried weaning off of the many prescription drugs she was taking (as prescribed) to help with her trauma, but the withdrawal was challenging. Vanlife allowed her to get closer to nature, which ultimately helped her the most in her healing journey.

Her Winnebago Revel van includes a lift bed, which was the selling point of this model. That said, she’s done oodles of renovations to the rig to where it works best for her, including overhauling the kitchen and adding a deeper sink to make cooking easier. You’re going to love her inspiring story and epic van!

Meet the Blue Ridge Mini Lux Retreat, a modern cabin in the Shenandoah Valley with mountain views — and a sauna! Outside you can sit by the fire pit, soak in the hot tub, or even plunge into the cool pool for a revitalizing chilly swim. When you’re done, you can sit in the Adirondack chairs on the deck and admire the stunning landscape.

Inside the cabin, you’ll find an open-concept living area and kitchen, with grand vaulted ceilings and exposed wood beams. The couch faces an electric fireplace and there’s a TV above it for movie night. The bedroom fits a King-sized bed, and the bathroom has a large walk-in, tiled shower. I could definitely live here full-time. How about you?
