Jay Shafer’s Vardo is For Sale

- Add a Comment

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.

Kent Griswold (from tinyhouseblog.com) and I finally connected by phone yesterday. It was really nice chatting with a kindred spirt (blogger and tiny house enthusiast). I’ll have to make the two hour drive over to Sonoma County one of these weekends to visit. Seems like Sonoma is becoming the center of the tiny house world.
