Maine Tiny Homes and Park Models
Have you ever thought about going tiny? Now is a great time to learn the basics and find out if tiny home living could be right for you. With so much beauty and charm hidden behind every curve in Maine, going tiny is a great way to downsize and appreciate a simpler way of life.
How Big (or Small) Are Tiny Homes in Maine?
Tiny homes in Maine are no more than 400 square feet – but you might be surprised at just how many modern amenities and creature comforts can be tucked into a small structure. While you’re not going to move everything over from your traditional house, tiny home dwellers maximize every little space for multiple uses and find creative ways to include storage.
Building a Maine Tiny Home
Custom tiny house builders like Utopian Villas are professionally trained and experienced in building the perfect space for our customers. With friendly state laws, tiny homes are welcomed across the state both on permanent slabs and as well as mobile RV/Travel Trailer models.
So whether you envision living permanently in a tiny home, building it as an ADU or granny suite for a family member on your property, or want to have a home that travels with you, Utopian Villas can help make your tiny home dreams come true.
What Is It Like to Live in a Tiny House?
True, going tiny may not be for everyone. But downsizing your belongings into a space about the size of your current garage has some major benefits. And don’t worry, tiny home living doesn’t require “going without” modern conveniences at all. Just the opposite, in fact.
Tiny homes from Utopian Villas actually make it easier to afford the modern luxuries and sophisticated designs. Rather than giving up creature comforts, tiny home dwellers find they have more time to enjoy life and the activities they love to do. Tiny homes are:
- Affordable
- Energy efficient
- Aesthetically pleasing
- Comfortable
- Low-maintenance
- Easy to clean
Imagine if cleaning your home only took an hour. What else could you do with your time?
Where Can I Build My New Tiny Home in Maine?
Maine is helping lead the way in the tiny home movement. In 2021, the legislature passed a state-wide law that lays out requirements for tiny home construction, among the first states in the nation to do so. Tiny house owners do need to check with the local municipalities for specifics on building codes, permits and tax liabilities.
Here are some towns to consider when building your tiny home in Maine:
- Chelsea
- Hollis
- New Gloucester
- Portland
- Stonington
- Wiscasset
How Much Will My Tiny Home Cost?
Tiny houses from Utopian Villas cost much less than traditional larger homes, starting at about $112,000. Tiny houses can be fully customized and built with the client’s needs and lifestyle in mind. Of course, the final price will depend on the upgrades and finishes a homeowner decides to include.
