We really can't believe the amount of attention the "Nugget" has gotten in the media. When we built this micro home for our wonderful customer Maggie, we didn't realize we were starting a firestorm! The Nugget is a 12' micro home on wheels, but with it's full bathroom, bed, and kitchen, you certainly wouldn't know it was less than 100 square feet! We love this tiny house, and will happily build you one starting at $29,000! Check out the article here: MTL on Country Living Learn more about The Nugget here: The Nugget Just wrapped up this perfect shell for our customer Alexa! We love the DIY movement over here at MTL, and applaud any qualified individual looking to tackle their own tiny house build, but it definitely makes sense for a lot of DIY'ers to have a builder do their shell.
We've met a lot of ambitious individuals who really underestimate the heavy machinery and tools needed to build a shell - not to mention a location to do it! Many people will spend thousands of dollars in tools alone to complete the job. We can build the perfect shell for your DIY tiny home project for a fraction of the cost of a complete home, and you'll have a nice, dry shell to finish the interior on your own time!

Our newest model, The Nugget, was featured on Curbed - we are so hyped! --------- A few thoughts on the Nugget - We've found The Nugget is a truly polarizing build. While some people adore it and see the value, others balk at the price-tag. The Nugget starts around $29,000, but the model as-shown is around $36,000. Why? It's fully solar, and fully off-grid, and is built to last 70 years with premium materials and craftwork. We noticed one of the commenters on the article said, and we quote, "You can buy a good used travel trailer for for about 1/10 that price." Well, we aren't arguing with that. You can definitely buy an old, non-insulated, non-off-the-grid, non-attractive, debilitated camper for a few thousand dollars. But that's not what we are selling, and that's not what we want to build. We don't have a passion for selling old campers. We want to build, and have a passion for BEAUTIFUL homes. Functional, high-end, and built to LAST. No, they aren't cheap. But we don't want it cheap. It's meant to survive in the wilderness for decades. It's insulated like a custom home, and built to last with 40 and 50 year warranties on the siding and roof. For the same price as a minivan, someone can have a totally off-the-grid, architect designed, and built to stand the test of time Nugget! It may not be for everyone, but we think it's awesome, and we're proud of it! Read the Article Here: www.curbed.com/2017/8/17/16160920/tiny-house-for-sale-modern-design-nugget
Just wanted to share a quick progress picture of this 22 ft. tiny house shell on wheels we are building for Alexa!
Alexa has a very strong DIY love, so she plans to finish out the interior of her tiny house herself. We love it! Having a builder do the tiny house shell is a very smart way to start your tiny house project - let us do the heavy lifting, and then finish the rest on your own time (and with a roof over your head). At MTL, we are here to support the DIY tiny house movement just as much as we are to design and fully build tiny homes for our customers. Whether you're looking for the perfect Trailer Made Custom Tiny House Trailer, the perfect tiny house shell, or a fully designed and built custom tiny house on wheels, we are here to help you any way we can! We can't wait to show you Alexa's finished tiny home when she puts her finishing touches on it!
