What is the cost for this container home, including amenities like the washer/dryer?

[@thejesussquad5525]

I want to buy this tiny house, how do I?

[@spphiareynolds6943]

Have to agree with you

[@thekingsilverado8419]

Wow kinda leaves me with the feeling if me and my beloved lawn tractor wanna become better friends have lunch together take a nap a place like that one might be for us...

[@suelyons531]

Great design and what a terrific way to use these old shipping containers!

[@josephbaumann292]

This is by far the best tiny house I’ve seen. I would move in in a heartbeat.

[@timdouglass4980]

I am in the process of modifying my own container. It's 40' high cube. refrigerated unit completely insulated and all stainless steel inside.I have been in full conception of researching any and everything about this incredible adventure for the past 2 years. out of every video documentary .anything to do with containers or tiny houses. Your garden style container studio is hands down the best overall single high cube container house I have seen. your 25 years of being a craftsman truly shine in your prototype Thanks for sharing your project and your awesome vision of where you would like your humanitarian effort to flow with less resistance as your dream enables others to help themself s to set realistic goals of owning there own home some day giving another human the chance of experiencing pride in ownership. Keep up the authentic efforts of being part of the solution and not part of the problem . This crazy world were living in ,is lacking beyond compensation !! Yours Truly, Timothy Douglass.

[@alexlarson833]

This container home is awesome!!! I love the modern design and the exterior is beautiful. Congrats Adam👍👍👍

[@WanderThisWay]

The more I learn about shipping container homes, the more I'm convinced it's the lifestyle for me. I'd love to one day build a custom home, and by using shipping containers, I feel like this dream is a real possibility.

[@truckin66]

Agree...if you could be totally off grid with this, that would be the ideal scenario...

[@ElleAshterra]

I had to remember this is located in Canada, whilst listening to an Aussie talking about the unit.

[@kayelle8005]

Particularly when he references Victoria. I was thinking great I can look at commissioning him thinking he meant Victoria, Australia.

[@Indoman_71]

HA! Victoria, BC, Canada. My hometown!

[@marine919]

The best shipping container home I've seen on KZbin.

[@Mywhtjp]

Ditto. Very well done. All it's missing is a HOT TUB..! Oh.. and a better view.

[@RussSchoonmaker]

Probably one of the most expensive too!

[@adellaharbar4262]

I agree... well thought through and superbly created inside and out!

[@MonkeySpecs301]

its in a yard behind a real home. lol

[@cynmann4584]

Same.

[@sgrvtl7183]

Beautiful exterior color , love the wrap around porch and the roof is the best I have seen- makes so much sense to have the overhangs . Beautiful home

[@sarkarabhik]

Love the full length balcony!

[@margaretlittle6800]

I would love to live there, really downsize & live simple

[@queencleo1151]

I love the outdoor design of the house! The layout inside is very efficient other than the 'compact' living-room space. I definitely would want a 20' container added to expand that space and give it a dining area too. Other than that, I love the position of the bathroom - it serves as an ensuite whilst also providing a separate toilet area for the rest of the home. What I did not see is ample bedroom wardrobe space!!! This house definitely needs more storage area...

[@SFlaidlaw101]

THE HOUSE IS BEAUTIFUL! 😳😍

[@shelbytownsend3511]

How long does it usually take to get the container approved by the county or state? And what was the total cost for the container and the finishes like HVAC, electrical, plumbing, kitchen counters, appliances etc. Do you and itemized list you can share?

[@matthewgaler6544]

The best single 40’ one I’ve seen. Impressive. 💥

[@annpatrykus3637]

The roof is very appealing.

[@deneray2886]

This is the nicest little hm I've ever seen, it is beatiful.

[@pattym4543]

What a beautiful shipping container home! I love the peaked roof and wrap around covered porch. Is there room for storage in the ‘attic’ above the actual top of the storage unit? The placement of the windows yields lots of light into the home. Great job! 👍👏👍

[@lindathompson4770]

Very Nice! Great idea putting a roof over the container as well as the porch! Maybe it's the angle of the camera... but the roof looks shorter on one side than the other. I'd want it the same all the way around. And I think I'd have the lav against the cabinet and the toilet facing it/sideways so it's not sticking out in the walkway or visible from the living area.

[@Whatta33]

Very nicely explained. Sturdy quality craftsmanship. Very nice 👍🏻

[@ДжоБлэк-ш5у]

Интересная планировка. Только за место крыши я бы сделал каркасную мансарду . Таким образом получил бы 2 этажа. На первом кухня-гостинная и ванная с туалетом а 2 этаж пара спален и кабинет.

[@cathylynnpietranton]

Thanks Danielle we love the design. We can see ourselves living there.❤

[@garypeterson2921]

Hello Cathy

[@babasusie9002]

Superb plan, Bravo indeed.

[@MichaelSkinner-e9j]

Have you guys thought of putting exterior cladding, like Fiber cement or a bamboo/composite, or something that both insulates and protects from fire? I know it's a shipping container (metal box) but it I just thought it would add to it?

[@leahstewart6979]

One of the nicest setups I've seen.

[@beefair420]

This is amazing. Congrats to them!

[@savethebees2506]

Loves your channel. Life should be this simple.

[@shanet7511]

That looks pretty good, but why not put it on its side to add an extra 1.5ft of width down the entire length? The units is wide enough to still have the needed headroom.

[@stephaniedodds7329]

This is Stunning!!!

[@preethamv18y79]

Amazing I love these type of House

[@wendylbranchfield7959]

So beautiful!

[@avajackson26]

It's a beautiful house real lovely I love the layout

[@petrabiedermann1947]

Looks like really nice quality. But I didn't see any closet in the bedroom and no room for storage of towels and other bathroom stuff.

[@urbanfarminrobin5184]

Everything is well planned, except the toilet set up, there must be a better way, perhaps the toilet and shower kept to one side with a passage to the bedroom?

[@wawawillegers4991]

Best for the environments and the nature. If you think about it, how much more do you need? Job well done 👍

[@beautifulcrazy]

Only thing I worry about with containers is the energy/aura of the space having steel as the structure. Has anyone got any thoughts on this?

[@HogOnWelding]

Love the layout HogOn 👑

[@himynameis3102]

Living in Australia I’m curious to know how much this cost to build

[@jennysmith38]

He's an Aussie, but this is in Victoria, Canada.

[@DG71]

Beautiful,🤗

[@missycitty9478]

Love!!!!

[@paulabenjamin2853]

I wish I can get one exactly like this I'm in Grenada

[@darkangelw8472]

Love it 😊

[@sst6358]

Beautiful 🤩

[@alicebarrington1109]

I love this design but for me I would shorten the kitchen to include a bigger lounge room .

[@emilybh6255]

It is too bad you have to walk thru the bathroom to get to the bedroom. To me that is a big negative. I'd like to see some "double wide" or homes made with two or more containers. 8 feet is a little too narrow for me.

[@Mywhtjp]

Check out "Life Uncontained" here on YT.. if you haven't already.

[@Mywhtjp]

Oh.. and then there's this guy.. kzbin.info I think he has about 5 containers put together..

[@carmenbrisebois1151]

Beautiful! I love it!

[@rondihoover5605]

Good job well done.

[@lovingmayberry2000]

It's lovely, I could definitely live there. (But that's a pocket door, not a barn door.)

[@morgan.a.mcneill]

this is beautiful, I want one!

[@bull_honk]

This home is gorgeous, but why is my favorite thing about it the tiny stove-top? haha

[@manuela4970]

What do you use to circulate the air?

[@Club6official]

Bravo

[@michaeld954]

Murphy beds would give more space

[@bradleydrake1809]

Look amazing

[@ericlanglois2501]

I’m going to build something like this in my backyard; this is a lot more fancy than what I’m going for but I’m curious how much this build cost to get a ballpark.

[@fofofofo3076]

Whats the total cost ?

[@archanaudupa210]

Am I the only person who saw a lizard 4:03 on that piece of wood outside the house😄

[@angelrivera8558]

This ok just ok for one person who want to live a minimum passion kinda Like a teen, elderly. Short term or over night, this would be great when you live next family with all the

[@lolawalsh9187]

Love it

[@knottiebabe]

I want one in my huge backyard and have it rented out!!!

[@darknessislight3689]

Fantastic design 😍 this would be my kind of space if I weren’t married 🤫 😂😂😂😂

Beauitful mate

[@kosycat1]

Wouldn't it be cheaper to just start with a different material? I mean its cool

[@butterflies9383]

How do you heat and cool this house?

Hi there, great vid. Just a FYI that the link to the VPN does not work. Thanks.

[@hew1263]

Oops, think it was my fault with a blocker. Sorry.

[@coyotefeather4896]

Definitely too squeaky clean upscale modern for my taste, I wana build something that I can walk in with muddy barefeet after working naked in my vehgie garden all morning, but I do like the layout. Nice work!

[@paularolle4974]

Where's the mirror in the bathroom

[@alisonjenkins6708]

Great container home! Was this built to be Step Code compliant? If so, which level?

[@buildfixflip]

What is step code?

[@mariaschwartz447]

Why only two burner when oven below looks standard?

[@itzel1735]

More counter service space? I use only a two burner.

[@jackthomson73]

Honestly when was the last time anyone used more than two burners at a time. Have a hard time fitting more than two pans on a normal cooktop anyway.

[@lutherikean5319]

How much

[@olhafilimonova4396]

Е perfetta.

[@dirtygirl2808]

You could have built a foldable wall table and save more space

[@mystisith3984]

I love the idea of a "detached large roof" over tiny houses, containers or not. Protects the structure, can collect water or sun (then you can have less side useless windows)...

[@smittyadventures4188]

You could even have more storage above the container and below the roof too

[@lisetteem588]

what are side useless windows?

[@lcomfort8683]

I like the side windows in case of fire, or just need out, but can't get to door.

[@babasusie9002]

Superb plan, Bravo indeed.

[@wandarodriguez7057]

Beautiful 🤩

[@ladygreensleeves901]

Love it 🥰

[@danielhall3151]

I’ve seen hundreds of container homes. This is the very best design for a single container. The roof is brilliant!

[@scottmichaels1764]

I agree. Makes outdoor space far more usable and adds touch of class to an otherwise industrial box.

[@yourlandladysson6395]

Yes I agree. This is very brilliant

[@hazelem1266]

Love the openness and light. Just don’t like that if you need something in the bedroom and someone is on the toilet, it’s a no go.

[@StacyForest738]

The house is only big enough for two people...you can't walk through the bathroom while your husband is peeing? Or you can't wait two minutes? How often do you need something in a tiny bedroom while someone is in the bathroom.

[@denzdato-on3733]

[@faeryfossil3472]

@@StacyForest738 you could definitely have guests in here, if someone is using the bathroom, someone else has to wait to go into the room, which i can understand would be a little odd

@@StacyForest738 not saying someone can’t wait, just that it’s a little weird to not have a door. I would feel a little uncomfortable using the bathroom in general as a guest there. No need to get all defensive

[@rek8193]

This isn't flashy, it's just pure design excellence. This is what I'd show someone if I was trying to convince them single container homes were viable.

[@remicaron3191]

Container buildings are useless. For the price of buying a container you can stick frame for the same or even less experience than the container. It’s simply a fad which people who know nothing about building love because it seems simpler but the facts are that it only limits your building footprint by forcing container sizes to your projects. The expensive part of a building is its interior and finishing which a container does nothing to lower.

[@eysank]

Exactly. The only benefit I can think of is that these types of buildings reuse otherwise scrapped materials such as the container. It might be better than using wood or other framing materials. But that's pretty much it. I can understand why people still choose to build with a container since it might be environmentally friendlier; in their eyes at least.

[@Mywhtjp]

NOT USELESS..! You CAN'T buy any house for $5000. Then you add to it to insulate it and make it cozy\yours. This is UPPER END living in a container.. but still wayyyy less than any stick built, thereby making it USEFUL.. :P These peeps have done great work to make 2 containers a nice home..

[@remicaron3191]

@@Mywhtjp it is very nice. But no cheaper that stick frame and way less hassle.

[@losnamazzottino6188]

Imagine this house but with two containers attached side by side. It wouldn't be so narrow.

But, unfortunately you mess with the integrity of the containers. So you have to reinforce them in some way which is costly.

I am surprised to hear it was the first one approved in Victoria. They have about 30 other refurbished shipping containers being converted now for homeless people too with shared bathroom and shower facilities won't be as fancy I'm sure but it's a viable solution to our housing crisis.
