High-End Shipping Container Home Built on a DIY Budget - TINY HOUSE TOUR
Вставка
- Опубліковано 9 чер 2024
- In this video, we’re touring a beautiful DIY tiny home that was built inside of one 40-foot-long high cube shipping container. Now when we say that this is a DIY build, we mean that every single thing in this home was made by hand. Not just the walls and floors and things like that, but also all of the cabinets and the countertops, all of the furniture in the living room, and all of the furniture in the bedroom.
The builder, Micah Woods, is a former woodshop and metal shop teacher who put all his skills and a lot of thought into creating a functional small space for full-time living. He came up with some really clever ideas to maximize everything from comfort, functionality, and storage to airflow, lighting, and more.

This is really nice! Please send me a quote without all of the furniture or appliances
One design change I would apply is rounded corners on all furniture etc. In a tight space and thinking of children too, that might save some bruises and/or injuries. ✅🙏🦘
Micah thank you for sharing your beautiful home that you ingeniously built out of a container! The way that the housing market is going at this time this is a great alternative as opposed to having a traditional home. Thank you for sharing and may your business continues to be blessed and help others obtain their dreams as homeowners. God bless you and your crew!
Beautiful home! I'm a little confused though: Did Micah show the actual 🚿shower?? Asking because all I recall seeing was the wc (toilet). Was/is the shower in that same space as the toilet?? Please, anyone, feel free to chime in because I'm stumped... 🤔
@@ruthadepetun9798shower description @18:01...
I’d love to see Micah and his team get contracts to make container home communities for elders, or people with lower incomes. These could be very affordable, but secure. It looks stronger than lots of these fast build, cheaply made homes these days. Great job Micah!!
These actually cost MORE than an exact same frame built home. it has everything a full size home so your only saving is in the fact that he built it himself. I am unsure why people think these hand made options are cheap. this is easily $140k to market plus permits are 100% needed
Great idea.!!!
, 6:26 6:29 Do you mean permits to place them? Because at that width and height, no permits are needed to haul the shipping container houses. Also, e-commerce is set up to haul containers and ship them too (they would need to be in the top layer on a ship though…due to the cut-outs compromising the strength).@@user-kx2cz1fh7y,
What a great idea. Only problem is that you need a space to put it.
@@carolmorris9855 buy you a piece of land for about $5k and your all set 😀
That's amazing, functional and beautiful! $60K to build an entire furnished home is a dream come true.
Spectacular 😍😍😍
Agree wholeheartedly💯
I would absolutely purchase this home if i could ! 60k in our economy !!?
Total genius, dude. This is 1,000 times more inspiring and well thought out than 99% of the crap the posers on HGTV tiny homes make! Outstanding work.
Indeed so sooooooo much more SPACE UTILIZED AND RESPECTABLE he's respected a person's living needs and created a well built home with LOVE!!!!!!!!! ABSOLUTELY STUNNING N I LOVE THE BLUE
I WOULD LOVE TO SEE MORE OF UIS CREATIVITY
BLESSINGS!!!😊
This guy is absolutely precious in his presentation. Passionate yet professional yet personable and he's clearly put all 3 (and more) into this very clever and stylish build. I hope he keeps on making and doing things that bring him such happiness. The joy and care in his work are just... soul nourishing to see. ❤
W O W !!! SO NICE !!! 👍👍
Genius in and out.
I Seriously Love Everything (and I Mean E-V-E-R-Y-T-H-I-N-G) About It!!!
It would be nice if you made a section of videos documenting everything as you do it on your channel!
Nah that couch is gonna be horrible to sit on.
@@pinut187I totally agree 💯
👏🏽Totally🤩
Absolutely!
for 60k this seems like a deal... so much customization and care. really beautiful.
Ikr😮😁💯👏🏾👏🏾 I was thinking higher! And furnishings included Great Build Great Buy!
That house is *gorgeous*. For $60K only? INCLUDING appliances?! That's awesome!!!!
Well, that's what it cost - but what would he sell it for?
This is a Tiny house mansion ❤Simply Genius 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👍🏾
I had seen Micah's build on another channel, a while back, and I found it extremely interesting then - he's a very personable host, too! It's great that you've featured him here, and I loved watching this video, as well. I hope the right buyer will connect with him, so they can begin to construct more beautiful container homes in the future. You go, Micah!
I totally agree! Micah is a very talented builder and he's also great on camera! Thanks so much for watching and for your comment, have a great day :)
This is without doubt one of the best and most well thought out tiny home I've seen! The bathroom behind sliding mirror doors is an excellent idea, everything is gorgeous! You are truly a craftsman, I love it!
Agreed! Thanks for watching :)
You havent seen many tiny house builds, it might looks great but it is poorly executed.
@@pinut187Show us yours
@@pinut187poorly executed? I would say the design is really well thought out, where is the weakness? you want more expensive cabinets, more expensive bifold doors whats the complaint, poorly executed is an empty comment?
@@pinut187poorly executed? Are you mentally ill?
As a container home dweller, I commend you brother for a high end build 👍🏼. Shalom👊🏼
So proud of you Micah! You are beaming with your architecture. Lovely.
Did he say this container is only $60,000? I consider that a bargain! Such quality! I’ll be following Micah.
Wow! I love this container home. It is extremely livable. Micah hit a home run with this design.
We agree! Thanks for watching :)
Great innovation and design, paving a road for alternative housing solutions.!
Great job. Realized that their options are still there. Housing is a problem. There is an answer.
@@ExploringAlternativeshow do we get in touch with you?
💯👏🏾👏🏾 Indeed!😁😁😁
I have seen many tiny home videos, but this without a doubt the best ever. Micah really was thoughtful in the design and amenities.
This tiny home is absolutely gorgeous 😍
Really nice. $60k didn't surprise me at all. I see on their website they sell for $85-$120k and $120k doesn't seem high considering the quality.
That is a beautiful build! I'm from Louisiana so I'm familiar with shotgun houses. I'm a USAF Veteran retiring to Virginia Beach, Virginia. This home would be perfect on a beautiful coastal lot!
I love the hanger, the mirror, the sink and his unclutter tought for the kitchen cane top, the front door, the coffee tables. Such masterpiece n hard work.
What a beautiful, functional home you've built, Micha. I love the piece about the Shotgun Houses and why you loved them. Thank you all for featuring this build. Stay safe and TFS🩵🧡
😊loved it best container home lve seen I want one
I am a teacher. I have been told "those who can't do, teach". You are an example of real life practical application. This was marvelous on so many levels!! Thanks for proving that insulting expression incorrect!! I wish you the VERY best on all of your future projects!
People act like we didn't or don't do anything else besides teach🤣🤣 I was a legal specialist in the Army(JAG) and a Crew Chief on 3 different helicopters so we can DO, we choose to teach🫶🏽🖤1 Continue to do what you do🫡 This nation and world needs more teachers, mentors, counselors, and coaches🌬
If you're teaching, you should be able to do as well. Otherwise, it's just theory if you can't show me by doing.
@@terib5467 I agree wholeheartedly🫶🏽🖤1
I could live here in a heartbeat! It's so beautiful and well-designed. Great job, Micah, best of luck to you!
I literally watched the second time to see the ring finger. I swear you model my dream life partner. Keep going. You're on a brilliant path of self fulfillment. Intrigued
Would kindly share more about the waste system, permit process and community this was approved for.
I would also!
So could I
This is amazing. So beautiful, so well thought out. One of the best designed and implemented tiny homes period! I’m obsessed. 🤩
You can tell he put his heart into this build very nice! Great job!!!!
Hi MIcah: You did yourself proud with your kitted-out container home! Gorgeous carpentry with its Japanese-style futon couch, tables, bed frame, marble-top counter, and cleverly designed wooden hangers and window frames. Everything about this home is well-crafted and built. Thanks for sharing. Jenny
Thanks so much for the lovely comments on Micah's build! And thanks for watching :) :)
@@ExploringAlternatives You're welcome! :o)
Phenomenal, please patent everything that you invented don’t give away your ideas. You did an amazing job with this container May God continue to bless your hands.🎉
I REALLY enjoyed the thoroughness of this walkthrough and ALL the hand built designs and thoughtful touches. I've been looking for something like this. Thank you for this one!!
The Best container home I have ever seen! So well thought out. Kudos to you Micah, I hope your business thrives!
By far the best thought out container home I've seen. I hope Uncontained Dreams is a roaring success!
Micah this is awesome! You are a genius and true Craftsman. Don't apologize about the price. Is people out here paying three times that amount for fully built tiny homes. You are good. And you're only going to get better. I wish you the best in your. Excellence on full display.
It's not only Beautiful but functional, and comfortable. In most tiny homes, it seems as if there is comprise. But with this home you have everything you need.
Man, I am so proud of us! This is unique and awesome. Great job❤
Omg I absolutely love this, definitely one of my favorite tiny homes I've ever seen 😍. The modern touches, and the zero clutter is amazing 😍 pleases my OCD lol. Great Job 👏👏👍👍👌👌👌❤️
Thanks for watching!! Glad the zero clutter was pleasing ;) ;)
I’ve seen amazing container DIY builds but this is definitely my favorite by far!!! Awesome job!!!
This is FABULOUS! I love it. ❤ I see you, Micah!
Thanks for featuring this container home! Micah this is truly amazing! There was nothing that I didn’t love. Perfect choices and excellent craftsmanship. It’s obvious how much time and care you put into your craft along with your commitment to excellence.
Wow! Love its clean but elegant design. Full of smart details. Fantastic job, Micah!
Where are you from
STUNNING!!!
It’s amazing Micah, you did such a fantastic job!
Impressive achievement! Kudos on a job well done, sir. The floor plan and design have been thoughtfully crafted and show a practical approach, all while maintaining a reasonable level of detail and staying within the budget.
Absolutely inspirational. This is truly a rising sun of a home, proud but humble man👏🏡
Couldn't agree more! Thanks for watching :)
Really beautiful work. The fine crafting of the details, such as the hooks inside the door, really makes it pop.
Hands down this is the best shipping container build I've ever seen. Well thought out.
You put a lot of thought into this home. This is amazing!! I would definitely live here. Wonderfully done !!
What a joy to turn your container home, Sir. You and a craftsman! Your attention to detail and innovative storage solutions are first-rate.
Glad you enjoyed it, thanks for watching :)
21:00 The customed-made standing desk in the bedroom is really awesome dude...very nice. 👏👍
You and your team out did yourself. You deserve a Standing Ovation. Amazing home.❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Excellent job, Micah, and to anybody who helped you. Great choices on all the finishes . Looks like you could be set to start a business. Congratulations!🎉🎊🎉🎊
This is beautiful! You did an amazing job, Micah 🖤
Well Micah, what a beautiful high end looking home. This is not your average tiny home. High quality,well made furnishings and a beautiful design. Good luck in your new venture.
One of the best container/tiny home builds yet. Lots of detail, thought drsign and functionality. Great job 👏 👍 👌 ❤
I've never seen a more beautiful and well thought out home than this one..and you did thlis yourself..this is absolutely gorgeous ..man if I had the money I'd commission you to build 1 for me..and pray that you would... it's genius
This is the best tiny house Ive seen. I like how flowy it is
Unbelievably beautiful!!!! You’ve done an amazing job 🎉
Thanks so much for taking a peek at Micah's build!
Gorgeous design, well-planned, functional, and affordable ❤
This is one of the best-designed single-wide shipping container homes I have ever seen, and I have seen many. Bravo!
I’m sorry, I just love how simple, beautiful, and functional it is!!!
I'm so impressed with the full size of everything: stove, shower, washer & dryer, queen bed, I mean, you're really not sacrificing much in comparison to a studio apartment, maybe even gaining a lot in design and peace.
@@continentalgin PRECISELY!
Absolute perfection. I am hard pressed to think of this as a #tinyhome when you have full sized appliances and a proper kitchen. The shower portion of the washroom is an excellent size and while changing the sheets on the bed won't be easy... it isn't impossible either. Truly a smart design for 21st century living on a budget.
Container home, not tiny home 😉
@@tendarhony I'll bet you were the assmite in school who told the teacher who was talking while she was out of the room.
I'm homeless+) Just having a home would be enough. .
How can anyone not be frozen in curiosity when she speaks- She is amazing 😊
My dad just sent me your video. I am amazed at what you can do in a cargo container. Honestly in the future i would like to do something like this. Thank you for sharing brother 🙏
One of the best container homes I've seen. You have thought of everything. Job well done!
This is a beautifully built container home. I love all of custom pieces and accents! This may be a diy tiny home, but everything looks professionally done. 🙂
I love this! It’s a tiny home that I could live in. It has plenty of space, it’s classy, and more functional than most. I like the full sized refrigerator, bed and stove. I love the original wood designs. Great job!❤
My name is Susan, and I am so impressed with your work and style of this container. I love the fact that you have a creative mind. This is great.

High-class design, excellent craftmanship, lots of well thought-through details. This shipping-container home is incredible! 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
This man and his small team of help (all) are GENIUSES!!!
Phenomenal job 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 my guys 👍🏾
Tears, tears and tears of joy. I am so proud of you. Very fine work. Nothing but the best for you and your next project ❤
You have the coolest shipment container ever. The work you have done is outstanding. I like your home very much 😊
I've seen this build on another channel and I LOVE it. Micah's craftsmanship and attention to detail are unsurpassed. The interior design is 100% my aesthetic - I love the dark wood, blue cabinets, and the marble-look countertops. Exquisite! :)
I love everything about this one. Beauty, comfort and functionality...it has it all.
This is the best use of space in a container home that I've ever seen. You did a Beautiful job. Well done.
What a gorgeous container home! Every detail is so beautiful and well thought out. Seeing a man of his power and height move so comfortably through that space makes me believe anyone could happily make that a home. Amazing craftsmanship!
This is a gorgeous home (and such a nice guy!). I am beyond impressed with his ingenuity and woodworking skills - everything is so well made and designed :)
It is beautiful how you turned a shipping container into something that has beauty.
That might be the most well thought out, most tastefully designed home I’ve ever seen. Not a bad idea in it anywhere. Amazing.
Amazing through and through!
Happy you liked it, thanks for watching :)
The design is spot on for the space! I like how the toilet sits behind the mirror doors and the mirror doors make the hallway seem bigger! I don’t think I would change anything. This just needs to be put on a nice piece of property with a nice deck off of it with grill and fire pit!
A ton of great custom features. Wow, really beautiful and really top quality.
Fantastic!
Love this,I think a great worker
The best that I have seen in just using the container itself.
Gorgeous Container Home. I am a retired Chef/Caterer so I really loved the kitchen and ALL the FULL size appliances. The woodwork was stunning. You paid a ton of attention to the details Micah. This is my forever home........ in my mind I will be following you for more awesome Container TIny Homes. I'm Ms J from Las Vegas. Please to meet you Micah.
I LOVE this container house. The design, the clever way everything works, the colour choices, the kitchen, the bathroom/shower/vanity, EVERYTHING! It’s just beautiful! I wish we could get something like this in the U.K.! Well done. I wish you every success - you deserve it!!
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
these cost more than a regular house built this size.
@@user-kx2cz1fh7ylol This nowhere near the cost of even a tiny condo, let alone a small house! You've either never purchased a home or you live in squalor.
It's EXTREMELY difficult to get planning permission to live in something like this here in the UK (unless you go off the radar and offgrid). The authorities don't want people living in an alternative cheaper way like this as they want you dependent on the matrix: i.e they want you on the hamster wheel of the work/consume lifestyle. Ordinary houses with a mortgage keep the masses in their place - and slaves to the system. I predict that living like this will be made increasingly difficult in the years to come. It's sad, but an indictment on how corrupt our system has become. Maybe research the WEFs ‘great reset’? It's all in plain sight.
This is one of the best container homes I've ever seen built! If you are going to build more, I'd like to see one with an extension for a second larger bedroom and bath! You are on your way, young man! What city and state are you in? I live in Clarksville, TN, and I would love to see a community of your homes here. I would buy one myself!
I think this house is Beautiful!
The container is perfectly beautiful. The price seems reasonable with all in. He seems happy, proud, and knowledgeable. I hope he can make building these homes a success.
Wow! This is probably the best thought out container home I've ever seen. Your efficient use of the space and highly functional layout are truly a cut above what else I've seen. Well done!
Beautifully done!!!
Hands down BEST container home I've ever seen !
I loved what you did with that container! Absolutely Beautiful! ❤️🙏🏾❤️
60 and 70,000 for that is not bad at All!
Housing is So Expensive, and on top of everything, your house is 100% Category 5 Hurricane Proof. You just need to tie it down properly once it’s moved to whoever buys it!
It is a tiny home, but because it’s just one container, it is INCREDIBLY Strong in Any Major Hurricane!
It is on of the nicest tiny houses I have ever seen ❤
Creator knows the dynamics of keeping furniture elevated for a more spacious feel and ocular perception of openness. This man and team is Grade A in my eyes.
By far . . . the nicest container build I've ever seen. I't so inviting and well organized . . . makes me wanna pack up my bags right now.
Genius! You are blessed with some amazing skills. Thank you for sharing. Your hard work and thoughtful planning shines bright as the sun. 🙏🏽
Thanks for the lovely comment about Micah's build! Much appreciated :) :)
I love how thoughtful & practical this living space is, not to mention aesthetically pleasing without having to sacrifice the size or inclusion of important everyday appliances due to the considerate layout & clever design. The only suggestion I’d make that could possibly be taken into consideration for future builds is perhaps a gas lift bed. They are effortless and easy to access and have the capability of holding (hiding lol!) an impressive amount of storage! Can’t wait to see your next project❤
Is a “gas lift” the same thing as a hydraulic lift?
@@terryg801 Both gas lift and hydraulic lift beds provide under-mattress storage, using different mechanisms. Gas lift storage beds employ gas struts for a lighter, smoother lift, making them user-friendly and often more cost-effective. In contrast, hydraulic lift storage beds use hydraulic pistons, which can be heavier to operate, and typically carry a higher price tag.
Technically, the main difference is that the pressurized system in the gas-based mechanism is powered by *compressed gas* whereas the *hydraulic* one is powered by *compressed liquid.*
Hope this helps!🤞
Just scrolling and saw this video. Good job its so lovely.
I come back to this video when I need to be cheered up bc I just love this home and the builder has the sweetest spirit
