HOUSE-HUNTERS could snap up an entire house for less than £10,000 from Amazon in an incredible deal.
As the cost of living has rocketed, roaring prices have put many hardworking Brits out of the property market.
Prefabricated Tiny Home with Lockable Doors and Windows, £8,500
But budding owners have turned to other solutions without a hefty mortgage hanging over our heads.
Any prospective owners may well want to purchase the tiny property from Amazon which comes complete with a number of facilities.
The item is described as a “Tiny Modern Villa” on the listing and while small, has a lot to offer.
Inside, there’s a double bedroom with enough space to also fit a desk, as well as an en-suite bathroom and an open-plan kitchen dining area.
Weighing only 5,600 lbs and measuring 8ft in height, 19ft in length and 20ft in width, it’s enough for two people to make into a humble abode.
Made from stainless steel and flame-retardant foam wallboard, the container house is easy to transport and assemble thanks to its design, as reported by What’sTheJam.
It’s also waterproof and thermally insulated, with the exterior able to withstand up to 70mph winds.
From Alpha Fusion, the “ready-to-move-in” home aims to provide a hassle-free experience – at a fraction of the cost of a traditional house.
According to the UK House Price Index, the average price for a home in the UK was £282,000 in January 2024.
But for £9,500, or currently £8,500 in the sale, the tiny property can be purchased and delivered within two weeks.
However, an electrician and plumber will need to be booked in to get it set up.
If you don’t fancy moving in full-time, the container can also be used as a portable office, storage shed or for guests to stay.
Other tiny homes from Amazon have previously hit the headlines.
One costing $27,000 (USD) – about £21,000 – reportedly takes only less than half an hour to put together.
It comes as the UK’s smallest bungalow“as big as a box of Jaffa Cakes” has gone on the market for more than £100,000.
The one-bed pad in Wales appears to have been carved out from the home next door and is for sale for £111,000.
Meanwhile, one woman decided to massively downsize and buy a tiny box home after her kids flew the nest.
Karen spent roughly £16,000 to buy the home, which was a blank slate.
But after putting her own touches inside it’s now her dream home.
She keeps the tiny home in a mobile park, where she pays £320 a month in rent for the space.
Inside the house is a lot like a studio flat with everything in the same space.
As a self-described minimalist, Karen didn’t worry much about how she would fit everything in the tiny space, but she did still install some savvy storage solutions.
