The Lusby is popular for its downstairs bedroom with extra loft sleeping above. The kitchen/main room has vaulted ceilings which make this tiny house feel much larger than it really is. The outside can be finished with board and batten siding, cedar plank (shown above) or corrugated aluminum (see Tarleton). The roof is covered with corrugated aluminum - and yes, you can hear the rain. The interior is completely finished in pine with stainless steel counters. The bathroom has a full shower, toilet and sink.
The custom built kitchenette runs the length of the living room and features a sink, 2 burner stove top, and refrigerator. Below the sink, there is a small water heater.
Can I add a dishwasher or laundry to the kitchen?
The kitchen is too small to add any more appliances.
The Lusby features a stainless steel fireplace which keeps this house warm in temperatures -35 F. Because of its small size, its 16R insulation is sufficient to keep this house warm in the harshest of climates of the continental US and Southern Canada. Heading north of Southern Canada? You can easily install a larger heater, or second heater. All four walls, the floor and the roof are insulated using polystyrene foam board which can withstand the rigors of road travel.
Can I add air conditioning?
Yes, a small ceiling a/c unit can be added to keep the house cool in any climate within the US.
This house is built on a 7' x 18' utility trailer. We designed and built a 18' trailer specifically for this home that surpasses the quality of a trailer you'll find off the lot. Or, if you choose, you can purhcase a standard 18' utility trailer in your area. Get more trailer info »
Do I have to build it on a trailer?
Because of its tiny size, it doesn’t meet the minimum size standards
required for houses on a foundation. That said, it can be built as a
shed (without a kitchen) on a foundation.
