While I could live in one of these small places it is not possible to just build these just anywhere "legally" (deed restricted communities, compliance laws, etc.) also, what about family and hospitality? It seems these people probably have to go to their friends and families houses for visiting, birthday parties, holidays, visiting grandkids, etc.
Ah, the Nano House makes larger ones for families, looks nice.
can it built up on the slap of the building?
The interior design is very nice. I wouldn't say it's suitable for a FAMILY of four, but for 4 single people living together as housemates (or rather, roommates) this would be a nice living. Save cost, and still can live comfortably.
And no, I'm not paid for commenting this. Geez!
I actually think a family would be easier to live with than roommates, but I find that in general. Four roommates/housemates in that amount of space might drive me a bit batty!
Comments above are ridiculous and were made by people who are paid to comment on posts. This house is a concept home that's never been built and the image is a compilation simulated by a computer. this particular page is nothing but housing advertisements.
Some have actually already been built and are in use. Some are model homes. Some are concepts.
I doubt any of the comments are paid since everyone I show this to has the same "aww it is so cute, I want one" reaction.

This house is very beautiful and would be great for a week-end retreat. For everyday living it might be a bit too small, but definitely workable for one person. Too much lawn. Who is going to mow it, care for it, water it, etc. Definitely not an option for southern California. Thank you.
Typically, I think these end up in spots that either have no lawn, because they are used for dense urban area housing or in the country where the concept of "lawn" is pretty nonexistent. Of course, people with model homes to sell never put them in a setting that looks less than perfect. (sort of like how pictures in professional recipes never look like anything actually made from that recipe)
I would think if you went with xeriscaping in Southern California--it would be work lawn wise..... More
Where do you store the lawnmower?
Fantastic. How much does it cost?
The base price for the Nano House on this page is around $8000.You need to factor in the price for the land where you will put it and options like solar panels for electricity and water heating. You also need to find a dealer here in the U.S. You should be able to use a search engine to find one or click the link in the article to get to the company website and use their contact form.
Very Good. How much does it cost?
If not used for first home, which would be great, too, in many places with just the addition of a small storage shed on property. But as a summer or winter getaway home, or in a location often traveled to for business instead of a hotel room...really terrific and useful for even more people. Anywhere you would spend more time outdoors than in. Maybe also behind a relative's house you often like to visit but quite enough room for your family? Or year round. So many ideas and uses...and it.... More
Gorgeous and Eco-friendly I'm sold!! I absolutely LOVE the Nano House!!! Well done!!!
Well done !!!
I want the Nano House. I think it's so cute!
I agree its adorable actually!
Smaller is better when you want to travel and be unencumbered. Uses less resources and is planet friendly.
don't you think someone who had no place to stay would love to live in one of these homes?
