Base Kits: Prefabricated interior and exterior walls, batt insulation, exterior sheathing, precut floor joists, precut rafters, windows and doors, and installation instructions.

Full Kits: Base Kit, plus… siding, flooring, cabinets, countertops, interior trim, light fixtures, and plumbing fixtures.

Not included: Concrete, sheetrock, mechanical, electrical & plumbing components, roofing material, stair railings, guttering, fasteners, and tools.

Are microMansions on foundations?

Yes.  All microMansions are built on foundations, much like a normal house. You can decide between a crawl space, slab or basement.

How many microMansions can fit per acre?

There are a few variables, but in a traditional subdivision layout, there can be 6 microMansions per acre. In smaller “pocket” neighborhoods or infills, you can expect more density, depending on the site.

How much will it cost to build my home kit?

You can expect a contractor to charge about $30-50,000 to build your tiny home kit from the ground up. This fee is in addition to the kit cost.

How much does a microMansions tiny home kit typically cost?

Most of our premium tiny home kits cost somewhere between $45-$95,000. This includes high-end finishes, windows and doors, plumbing fixtures, electrical fixtures and cabinets.

We are also offering a “base kit” that ranges from $25-60,000. The base kits include the prefabricated interior and exterior walls, windows & doors, batt insulation and waterproofing.

Can I pick my own finishes?

We have hand-picked a selection of finishes and colors for you to choose from if purchasing a Full Kit. You can mix and match from anything we have selected to fit your style and make your microMansion unique!

Base Kits come with no finishes.

Can the layouts be modified?

The layouts of the homes cannot be modified, unless otherwise specified (Merlin). The homes are designed as a system. A simple wall change effects the heating/cooling, plumbing, and electrical, as well as building codes, city plan review, etc.  This can greatly increase the cost of your home and the time it takes us to build it.

Upgrades are available at an additional cost. Items such as porch roofs, detached garages and garden sheds can be added to your order.

 

What is the square footage of your homes?
