The tiny house plans were created by Lamar Alexander, a homesteader who lives mortgage-free and off the grid on a patch of family-owned land in Utah. His designs are for people looking to live a similar lifestyle. Below, learn more about the accommodations of this tiny home. Alexander says this small home makes a great starter home or bug-out retreat that can sleep up to six people. So, what’s the catch? A fully tricked out interior that includes a solar or gas power source – not to mention appliances and fixtures cost extra. If you’re interested in learning more, his “Ultimate Off-Grid Guide” e-book, which includes the building plans for the cabin, shares how you can finish the interior on the cheap.
