Double Wide
Specifications: 693 sq. ft. interior, 2 bedroom, 1 bath, Footprint: 24′ x 36′
Description: Originally designed to go on 12′ x 36′ trailer chassis, this design could also be built on the ground.

A trailer design is one way to legally circumvent certain building codes. If you’re building this on the ground, one 2×4 center wall can be deleted to save money and free up a little extra space. A deck or porch on the south creates extra living space at low cost. This design is one of my most efficient, having almost no wasted space.
