The Home Depot has a sleek tiny house for under $19,000 that will add some precious private space to your property for stretching out in.

This California Studio tiny home kit from Well Done 1 Homes gives you the steel frame needed to build a 240-square-foot suite with a primary room, a full bathroom, and a small covered porch out front. Far from the rustic cabin- or farmhouse-style tiny houses you often see listed online, this one has a look of cutting-edge minimalism that won’t go out of style.

According to the blueprints, this tiny home stands 24 feet long by 10 feet wide (not counting the 3-foot porch space), and the walls are 8 feet tall, with an extra foot of height on top for the flat ceiling. The awning over the entrance doors has spaces for three recessed lights, which adds to the modern look of the building. The main room measures just under 200 square feet, making it the perfect size for a distraction-free workspace or studio, or a guest bedroom with extra space for a sitting area. The bathroom is designed for a shower, sink, and toilet.

Tiny home kits like this are designed with DIY builders in mind but can be easily put together by professional contractors as well. You’ll get the pre-assembled steel frame, made from American steel with a 50-year warranty, which is termite-, rot-, and fire-proof. Plus, the durability ensures that your build won’t warp over time. In addition, the kit comes with assembly hardware and instructions to create your new future home, office, or getaway. 

Well Done 1 also offers a dry-in kit add-on that will provide exterior doors, windows, roofing materials, siding, and more to create the custom tiny home of your dreams. The company also says it allows customization to its frames if you want to change where windows and walls are located, and they can even add a deck.
