With a size of 18×22 foot (396 sq. ft.), it’s perfectly suited for an outdoor life without the inconvenience of a large, hard-to-maintain house. It comes with one bedroom and one full bathroom. The one-level cabin comes with a standard interior layout and 2026 material package price of $45, 570. It meets the requirements of people looking for getting a genuine cabin life without being tied up in the details of an expansive house or complicated maintenance.
Outdoor aesthetics bring out the traditional aspect of a cabin that matches seamlessly with both tree-draped areas and trail-side locales. A charming roof supported by full length trusses above the porch gives a decorative yet practical twist to the overall look. The standard 8′ gable porch stretches about 18’7″ in length making the cabin very accessible outside. You might be able to upgrade the porch from 26′ to 30′ in width to make more space for people or even include both sides with a deck to widen your outside living area.
Inside, open floor plan resembles living space design of a bachelor studio. It has one common bathroom and main living area. Vaulted ceiling constructed with rafters and ridge beam gives you an open, airy feeling that is a perfect match to that small footprint cabin.
The galley kitchen offers full-size sink, stove, and refrigerator that provide you comfort while making meals, etc., without much inconvenience. There are a couple sleeping set-ups that will work like a queen bed and a full bed, plus a queen sleeper sofa giving you sleeping arrangements for a couple of two, a family of three or a group on a trip. Besides, with the opening of the sliding main door you may turn the kitchen from the usual counter to the right (i) layout (counter to your right with the main door) to the L-shaped configuration with countertop and cabinet space being a bit more.
The cabin is suitable for a wide range of people’s needs. A warm and cozy little house is something that skiers, snowmobilers, hikers and trail riders really appreciate as they wind down outdoors to a nice cabin at the end of the day.
