This small living space may not appeal to those who like to sprawl out at home, but the sustainable space sure is cozy. Measuring under 300 square feet, this dwelling means that homeowners have more money in their pocket and a smaller environmental footprint.
Crafted by builder Chris Heininge in Portland, Oregon, this super small home takes a huge amount of inspiration from the style of Asian homes, which are built to be as practical and space-saving as possible. With smart storage and an ultra efficient layout, the small living space contains a kitchen, bathroom, multi-levels, plus room for guests to sleep. Despite being so small, the house is currently on the market for $70,000, a cost which includes all of the tiny home's appliances.
