Each unit is equipped with a pre-installed bathroom and kitchen. All you need to provide is water and electricity, which can be supplied through grid power, a generator, or solar energy.

The company will deliver the Portable House to your specified address, and their delivery team will handle the setup. 

They will also assist with connecting water and waste lines to your main home system. 

The only catch is that furniture is not included in the price of the tiny home, but this allows the homeowner to decorate however they like. 

According to the website there are only three tiny houses left in stock, so shoppers had better be quick if they want to grab one. However, currently there aren’t any customer reviews for the homes. 

A tiny home is defined as a caravan in UK law, as long as it doesn’t exceed 19.8m x 6.7m in size.

The small dwellings are becoming increasingly popular in the UK as many struggle to get on the property ladder due to rising house prices.  

House prices in England continued their steady increase, with homeowners seeing 1.6 per cent or £4,894 added to the value of their property, making the average property worth £305,879.

It comes after a tiny home appeared for sale on Amazon in the US for less money than a standard car.

The two-bedroom mobile home – with an open-plan living room and kitchen, and bathroom including a toilet and shower – cost $19,000.

The pre-fabricated home, mostly made of metal, is framed by a fenced-in porch with stairs leading up to the front door. It is also equipped with plumbing and electricity, as well as a water heater.

The house, made by Emonia, comes with wind protection, fire protection, earthquake resistance, sun protection and rain and moisture resistance, according to the Amazon listing.

The small home, costing less than a new Mitsubishi Mirage, may be a tempting option as home prices continue to hit all time highs.

Around 64 percent of American adults own their own home, according to the Federal Reserve. This figure falls to 36 percent for those who make $50,000 a year or less.

The current 30-year fixed mortgage rate is around 5.8 percent which can also present barriers to buying a more traditional home.
