$95,000 · Tiny House on Wheels for Sale

This tiny house is essentially a very sturdy, very cozy partially off-grid capable cabin on wheels, perfect for the environmentally-minded minimalist. Its no-loft open layout feels very spacious. With its wood stove and propane cooktop, you can stay warm and well fed even if the power goes out, and even then, the 100 Ah backup battery will keep the lights and a mini fridge going for several days. Currently, it’s parked on a good gravel pad on private property in the Highlands area near Victoria, BC and connected to well water and 30 amp power. There is the possibility of staying on site; you would discuss this with the landowner. It’s a beautiful forest location with cedar, fir, hemlock, salal, ferns, ocean spray, and other typical west coast temperate rain forest flora. One window looks out onto a pond. There’s a large garden on site as well. I’m only selling because I realized the hard way I’m actually a city person more than a rural person, and this house is definitely designed for rural living. It was built by a private builder in Jan-May 2024, with the electrical and plumbing done by Red Seal tradespeople. The wood stove was installed by a WETT certified installer and is EPA compliant.

Excellent stove; I was NOT cold this winter. In the spring and fall, a small electric oil heater keeps the unit more than warm enough. I did use a portable air conditioner a bit during some of the hotter weather, but it’s shaded most of the day. • Wood storage: There are two wood racks are set up outside that would be included. • Cooking: Very reliable Dometic two-burner propane cooktop with piezo ignition. • Kitchen sink: Large 29 x 16 in. stainless steel (no sink in the bathroom). • Counters: 20 linear feet of maple butcher block countertops (12 ft. on the sink side, 8 ft. on the cooktop side), open underneath for customizable storage. • Tile: Dark charcoal grey/black tile (backsplash, shower surround, wood stove hearth). • Windows: Nine total. Four on the passenger side, four on the driver’s side, and one on the hitch end. Three that open for both egress and ventilation. Black frames.

Perfect for bucket baths. Saves a LOT of water and you don't have to deal with any complicated heating systems. Sun-Mar GTG compost toilet. Simplest compost toilet on the market and it doesn't require electricity. It does have a 12VDC vent fan if you choose to vent it outside the unit. I haven’t had any odour issues as I use coconut coir as a cover material. NOTE You need to know how to manage a toilet compost system. • Outlets: Grey water outlet has a typical RV style bayonet fitting and drains water from the shower pan and sink. Solids interrupter filter (grease trap) on the sink drain reduces food waste from washing dishes going into the grey water. • Water supply: Cold water intake goes only to the kitchen sink. I heat water in a kettle on the propane cooktop. There is no water heater otherwise (and one less piece of equipment to worry about). • Laundry: Laundromat in Langford
