This is a bit of a rare occurrence. Jay Shafer is selling his Vardo. If you’ve ever been to one of Jay’s monthly open houses you probably noticed this micro house sitting next to his much larger 89 square foot Tumbleweed EPU.
He’s asking $5,800 (or $4,800 without the stainless steel heater). If you’re a good with a hammer and saw you can build one yourself in about 100 hours and spend about $3,500 in materials. But if you’d rather have a turn-key micro house buying Jay’s little Vardo might be a much better deal, and if you hurry you can have it right away.
The Vardo would probably not make a good full time house, there’s no bathroom, but it’s perfect for a cozy home office or camping trailer. It’s so small most cars can tow it too. If you’d like to know more visit Kent’s Tiny House Blog for all the details. Visit Jay’s website to learn more about Tumbleweed Houses.
(update: this house has sold)
Great place for the In-laws to stay when they visit, but more then likely it will be me.
that’s the coolest camper/log house looking trailer. it is awesome! If i were him, i would market that in Florida, especially the Florida keys as people love to camp out of their own house by the water. Totally awesome
Rather than shelving, try a tote bag on a hook.
Hello: I just found out about vardos. They look like a wonderful solution for my needs at the moment. Could you please email and let me know if a car can pull one of these or if I would need to get a truck?
Thanks! Neva
Yes these little Vardos can typically be towed by a car. It really depends on the car and how you build the trailer.
