Posh, Spacious, and Cheap

Americans want luxury, they want space, and they want it for less. This works out to the artful use of manufactured housing and kit based garage / storage buildings. The middle class in particular is big on indoor outdoor living which really means a fully furnished backyard with major privacy. Accordingly VRT stuffed such a design brief into its bonnet, left it on a low simmer, and is ready to serve up the courtyard mobile home / steel building hybrid.


A typical lot size in the US, to the extent there is such a thing, is around 75 ft wide x 150 ft long, give or take, on the order of 1/4 acre. VRT has worked up a design adhering to these dimensions. The mobile home portion is actually two mobile homes stacked end to end rather than the more conventional side by side. One has kitchen / dining / living, the other bed and bath. As shown the mobile total is around 2,500 sq ft, the garage / storage around 1,500 ft, with outdoor deck space of perhaps 4,000 sq ft.
