Tiny homes are all of the rage but they are not always as inexpensive as they may seem. However, there is a wide range of tiny homes that can be had for next to nothing. The Arched Cabins company is located in various cities throughout the United States, and they provide would-be homeowners with access to tiny arched home kits that can be had for roughly $1,000 apiece.

$1,000 will get your foot in the door…literally. At this price, you can obtain the cheapest model that Arched Cabins have available. $3,600 gets you a 12 × 20′ cabin, while $4,000 puts you in the 14 × 20′ model. 12 × 40′ cabins are obtained for $7,200. When you compare these prices to the average tiny home, you are going to find that they are quite reasonable. The more expensive tiny homes are quite costly.

“Stunning” comes to mind every time we see this bold color combo. The deck extension on the side of this Arched Cabin leads to a huge deck off of the back with a gorgeous view. #archedcabins #archedcabin #boldcolors #exteriordesign #orange #metalroof #metalroofing #lowmaintenance #hardieboardsiding #hardieplank #custombuild #customdeck #designedintexas #madeinamerica

In fact, many of them will run you about the same as a normal-sized home. This defeats the purpose of downsizing in the first place, doesn’t it? Larger cabins are also available in a wide range of different sizes, allowing prospective homeowners to make the best possible decision for their personal needs. Even the larger kits come with very reasonable prices when compared to the prices of the average tiny home.

This cabin is tucked away into the North Carolina mountains, and surrounded by a temperate rainforest. You can also see it was built on a teeny tiny hill!! 🧗‍♂️ #archedcabins #diy #buildyourown #metalbuilding #archedcabin #northcarolina #livingsmall #hardieboardsiding #metalroof #madeinamerica #designedintexas #Repost @thelongwayishome with @get_repost ・・・ Noble Arch with laurels
