Brett’s Off-Grid Tiny House

·

At 15 Square meters and completely off-grid, Brett Sutherland has constructed a true, tiny house treasure. Packed with unique, space saving design elements, Brett has created a fantastic space to both live and work. Perhaps best of all, this was all achieved on a budget of NZ$21,000. The Tiny House was constructed on his parents property, and will soon be moved to a friends property in Bethells Beach in Auckland.” – Amazing Off-Grid Modern Tiny House Tour – YouTube.

    This is very nice, more contempary. So does he have plans to go by and how much did it end up costing him to build. I saw no heat source, I take it warm climate. It might be helpful if you mention meter/feet for countries that use feet. Very nice video.

      If you just mentally multiply square meters by ten, you are pretty close to square feet.

      I think he said $21,000 NZ which is just about $25,000 US dollars.

        As of now NZ $21,000 is US $18,000
