This $9K Tiny House at Amazon Has Tons of Natural Light

I’ve been living in New York City for almost five years and have always rented my apartments, but I dream of one day owning a home with enough space to store my entire luggage collection (and then some). Tariffs have caused price hikes across a variety of goods, so I’m relying on Amazon’s more affordable prefabricated tiny houses to make that dream a reality.

The online retailer’s outdoor store is stocked with customizable tiny homes, including this luxury cabin-inspired design that has two bedrooms, a full kitchen, and a bathroom. It’s less than $10,000, which is a major steal compared to the six- and seven-figure traditional homes in my area, and the entire space can be customized. Keep reading to learn why it’s the perfect space for a rent-free home, a cabin for camping, or a backyard guest house.

Off-Grid Tiny Home Kit

Lily Wang, a product manager for the tiny house manufacturing company ZHong Machinery, described this model as one of their most “hot selling” homes—and we can see why. It comes practically move-in ready with insulation, windows, doors, plumbing, and electrical outlets pre-installed, a full bathroom with a toilet and full-sized shower, as well as a kitchen. Plus, half of the front of the house is covered in floor-to-ceiling windows to help drench the space in natural light, which is especially beneficial for morning yoga sessions.

The manufacturer even gives you the power to customize the tiny house, too. You can switch up the exterior color and type of flooring for no extra cost. You can also increase the size of the home to 800 square feet and go up to three bedrooms. Those personalizations come at a cost, but they’re worth it if you need the extra space or want to add an office or guest bedroom.

If you want to make the space even more energy efficient, you can have solar panels and a rainwater harvesting system included in the design, which will capture water that you can use for drinking, washing dishes, and more—and help cut down on your water and electric bill, saving you more money in the long run. You’ll just need to contact the company through WhatsApp with all of your customization requests. 

Constructing the house won’t take a lot of time either, thanks to its easy foldable design. All you have to do is unfold the walls and install them into place—no need to construct the walls piece-by-piece as if you were building a traditional house from scratch. Then you can have fun incorporating your own furniture and favorite home decor.

Amazon has no shortage of tiny houses under $10,000. Keep scrolling for more, and be sure to head to the retailer’s sports and outdoor storefront for additional options.
