What £15,000 tiny home you can buy on Amazon looks like on the inside

Would you buy a house that cost only £15,000?

Would you buy a flatpack house you ordered on the internet?

As much as the housing crisis makes trying to get on the property ladder about as much fun as eating a bag of rotten raw meat smeared in s**t, you also don't want to fork out for a much cheaper option only to discover it's so bad that you wasted your money.

You might be able to skip out on paying a mortgage, but if you blow all your money for a deposit on a draughty flatpack shed where you have to empty out your turds yourself then you might come to regret it.

The drawbacks to such a place will include not being connected to the mains electricity or plumbing, as well as needing some land to put it on where you can actually plug it into the utilities and enjoy such amenities as switching the lights on or having running water.

One person who did actually buy one of these places was TikToker Nathan Graham, who decided to go onto Amazon and buy a 19ft by 20ft pre built home for £15,000 ($20,000).

Having bought the house online it was only natural that he wanted to put it together and have a look inside the place to see what it would offer.

Taking his first venture inside, he found a cramped hallway as well as a bathroom with a shower and toilet fitted, and they'd work just as long as he was able to find somewhere he could connect to a water supply.

Nathan quickly discovered that his new home was an extender, as the tiny flatpack house could be folded out at either side.

With help from a bunch of friends he folded out his house until it was much wider and he would have enough space to swing a proverbial cat.

Opening up the space revealed that the flatpack house had bare white walls but plenty of windows to let natural light in, although maybe it'd look better once you started decorating it.

Folks watching the video wondered 'how water proof is it' as erecting the walls and ceiling in this place was just a matter of pushing them out until they fit together, it wasn't exactly sealing up every single seam.

Others wondered about what sort of insulation this place would provide, while someone else asked the really important question: 'what if someone pushed your wall?'

In the video, they built this place by pushing the walls and ceiling out - it'd be a shame if the place could be sent tumbling by somebody pushing them back in.


It's perhaps not the solution to a great need for affordable housing, but maybe for some people this would be a decent enough living space for a bit.

At least it's a roof over your head.
