![]() ![]() We used a folding door to keep the cool air from wandering off to the back hall and basement.ĭue to our house being on top of a hill with few trees and having several people with breathing problems we ended up–remember last summer?-with this unit and two small units in the bedrooms and several fans. This cooled our east facing LR with a HUGE picture window and helped very much with the eat in kitchen which is the same size as the LR. It also comes with a drain pan but that could overflow if not watched carefully so we used the pipe. The vent was small and went to a window–the unit came with panels to fit in your window to hold the vent. Our windows would not work with a regular model. They are bought an in-room AC unit last summer at Lowes and I think it cost about $300. I would highly recommend checking these out. Sold it and built a regular size house but I actually really miss the little cabin now. I literally had a 400 square ft cabin with 400 square feet of porches so it made the place seem huge. The porch covered three sides of the cabin and was screened on two. We had a 10×12 shed that connected to the porch and turned it into a second bedroom. I had built ins in the bedroom and my queen size bed was on a platform that raised up on cylinders so there was storage under the bed. The bathroom was way bigger than tiny house bathrooms and the shower was big enough for two average size people. The under belly of this cabin was well insulated and enclosed with a heavy duty plastic sheeting and I never had a problem with pipes freezing. My porches were added once the cabin was brought to the site so there was no wasted space on the chasis. My heating/air conditioner bill was never more than 60 dollars a month and that was on an area where it snows in the winter. It was my vacation cabin and was in a community of 38 cabins just like this one. I actually owned one of these for 3 years. This seems like the perfect size to me…smaller but still roomy. And since I will be in Arizona, I don’t need the warmth of carpets.īut I do love the size of park models. I will also be getting rid of all carpeting and going to either plank vinyl or laminate. The unit I am buying has no porches or decks, and that is one thing I will be adding. By adding the screens, this is in fact a clever way of increasing the space legally. Since this cabin has 400 sq feet of interior space, the cabin cannot be bigger…but it can have porches. As to the comment about floor space being used by porches.park models are limited by law to 400 sq foot of living space (except in florida where I think it may be 500). Most park models are no longer being built with lofts…they aren’t very practical and give the unit a cave-like look under the loft. I like this one a lot, but would ditch the loft. I am just in the process of purchasing a park model home in Arizona. ![]() See The Latest: Go Back Home to See Our Latest Tiny Houses More Like This: Tiny Houses | Log Cabins | Solar Off-Grid Log Cabin | THOW You can also join our Small House Newsletter!Īlso, try our Tiny Houses For Sale Newsletter!
