I love it and I’d like it if it had a closet instead of the bunks! Great idea Mx Tammy!
Will they haul it to south west Alabama?
It’s already sold.
That's the same model i have. In the bunk space I put a pantry, an electric desk and under the desk a cat litter box. Wish Clayton would have told me I could do the windows differently since I opted out of the bunks. Oh well, it works for me. My neighbor turned his into a full blown closet.
Awesome. That’s a lot of flex space without the bunks. Thanks for watching! How long have you lived in your home? Are you happy with everything?
Please share if you have had any problems or issues with your home. Clayton floor plans are my favorite, but not my favorite builder.
The loft would make a great primary bedroom. I would make the downstairs bedroom a closet and dressing room.
@@michelb.8953It's a good point. Viewing these used models in their 4th year of light use gives you some idea of how they weather, and where the weathering shows. The floors seem to show a surprising amount of wear; I quite like rustic scuffed-up floors if they're real hardwood. If they're engineered, though, it tends to just look tired!
@@natalienetanya7401only if you made it a standup loft, which is doable - I left a comment on how I'd achieve that. I know we say, "I'm looking forward to crawling into bed," but we don't mean literally crawling!
Nice home. Very beautiful
We appreciate you watching!
I'd move the fridge over to the same wall where the sink is, moving the sink to the (windowed) outside wall and the stove to face the living room - so everything moves counter-clockwise. Not only does that allow you to look out the window at the sink, but most importantly, gives you space where the fridge currently is to drop the ceiling, allowing for a stand-up corridor at the top of the stairs. I predict that stand-up lofts will become the standard type of loft - even if you're able to crawl around on your hands & knees in a loft, why would you want to?! It's a real miss, IMO - especially when these are marketed to seniors.
Great ideas but a lot of changes if you were to buy this home. Maybe a different floor plan would work better. As far as the lofts go, we have seen only a couple with full height lofts but the rooms under them are short. Like a reverse loft. Manufacturers have a max height for the overall home to work with due to transportation requirements. Site built can be done though.
@@50pluslife360 I get that - we built our own w. a full 2 stories; the second story detaches & can be lifted-off by a crane, though we'll likely never move it out of our own forest. The one in the video wouldn't require a short room beneath - that's the idea behind moving the fridge counter-clockwise. I'd only do that to allow for the area under the stairs - and the future area under the full-height loft - to contain cabinets, or a washer & dryer side-by-side, rather than stacked.
Reverse lofts are abysmal - the only thing worse than crawling UP into a loft would be descending down into a crawlspace like a rodent, lol. Indigo River Tiny Homes is increasingly building w. stand-up lofts - and those will absolutely be the ones to appeal to seniors, with single seniors probably the largest tiny home market.
Depending on where you live it would be amazing if we could do a video tour of your home!
@@50pluslife360 Well, we're up in Canada & we've got it tucked-away in the woods - sadly? Canada is not a friendly place for tiny homes. Our own neighbour reported us to the city for having "an illegal structure," after spotting smoke from the woodstove, and sure enough, an inspector showed-up in the dead of winter, holding a clipboard. "We're from the government and we're here to help," lol. Left after learning it was built on a trailer chassis, but still - be glad you're in the US. The average cost of a home in Canada is $700K, so tiny homes could make such a difference. Unfortunately? In most parts of the country, they just can't make it through all the bureaucracy.
I remember the quote when Ronald Reagan was President! Canada is sure going through some tough times right now. How much did Trudeau spend to make homes in Canada more affordable? Average of $700k! Similar in the US - the tiny market is growing faster than the regulations. Most communities allow RV Park Models and tiny homes in unincorporated areas but not near towns and cities. We think it has to do with ‘tax base’ more than anything. Officials view them more as a single wide home and see little to no value in anything but land. Unfortunately in unincorporated areas most available land is unimproved thus adding to the cost of settling up a home unless you decide to invest in a full off-grid setup.
I like that you give measurements. What is the door opening width into the bathroom? It looks a bit narrow. The bunk area measurements on the floor plan are smaller than what you said. They are smaller than the size of a standard twin sized bed. According to the plan, a standard twin would stick out into the hallway.
I believe the bathroom door opening is 24”. Clayton has slightly modified floor plans over the last few years. These homes were part of a ‘Lakeside’ series in 2019-2020. Then they changed the series to a coastal theme for a few years (Sea Shore model, etc.) and now their homes are Alabama themed (Cheaha, Tannehill, etc.). While they add a new floor plan or two here and there, many have only changed in name and minor variations and modifications. It is quite possible the floor plan shown is not 100% accurate to the home. Plus I’m only human and could have made a mistake but I’m pretty sure the width is just over 36” A twin is 38” and I’m sure it will fit. Clayton likely made the steel bunks in house. I know for a fact the length is 75 inches which is a twin so I wouldn’t imagine they had custom size mattresses made.
I would put a 1/2 bath in there
Good idea for that space. A little work, but maybe worth it, although it would be right across from the full bath.
Beautiful home
Thanks for watching!
I would sell those stackble washer and dryer and put two regular washer and dryer in the bunkbed area and put shelving above for storage and i would put storage where the stackable washer and dryer were for a pantry, linen, and storage or i would put a standing freezer where the stackbles were
Speaking from experience, relocating a laundry room isn't all that simple. We just reconfigured our laundry room in our stick built house a few months ago and we were lucky to be over a basement so it was easy to move supply lines, drain, power and dryer vent. If you have the skills, it can be done, but you have a lot of considerations. First, you'd have to break the sealed underside of the park model and figure out how to properly reseal after you are done. Then, you'll need to relocate the hot and cold water supply and washer drain. Supply is pex in these homes, so it's easier than copper, but this would require either removal of siding or the shiplap. You have to mount the connection box in the shiplap, so it would be best to go at it from inside the home. You'll also have to relocate the dryer vent hole which requires a 4" hole drilled into the floor. Likely most difficult is the next step - moving the 220v electrical for the dryer. Hopefully, you have enough wire coming from the panel box to move it where you need it, but if you don't, I'd recommend pulling a new wire from the panel box to the receptacle - you wouldn't want a splice or junction box in a 220v line. Finally it's mostly aesthetics - replacing shiplap, sealing up holes around the old laundry area, and resealing the underside of the house.
Pretty home
We think so as well!
Unless you planned on moving it to a leased park, why not get a singlewide mobile home for roughly the same price?
There are pros and cons to both and it really comes down to personal preference. We recently went through a single wide that is Clayton’s entry level series for $59k. The only upside compared to these park models is the square footage. The level of material quality, construction practices and so on is very evident. Since park models are generally designed for vacation or income producing homes the level of materials, finishes, overall looks and appeal is generally higher.
And Mz Tammy wins the first round with the closet idea 👍👍 prize is new Harley!🍺
Nope. No new Harley!
funny how THEY didn´t spend the $14 to repair dog damage
If you buy it, I’ll buy the door seal AND install it for you. And fill the spot on the cabinet. They probably just didn’t really notice it.
To much money for all the damage
We’re not financial advisors but you can spend 40-50k more for a new one. Then in a few years spend $100 to correct some normal wear and tear. Or you can buy this one and save that $40-50k and go ahead and spend the $100 to correct some cosmetic issues. Unless of course you’re just a looky-loo who deep down inside wants to pay $25k for an Incred-I-flop and wait a year and a half to have it delivered.
Nice but someone treated it rough
Nah, no one treated it rough. The dog treated it a little rough, but nothing that can't be fixed inexpensively. The door seal is about $15 and a tub of plastic wood is $15. They left a can of paint there, so you don't even have to buy paint.
Amen
