I was thinking about using this plan as a basis for the micro cabin.

16 feet wide by 12 feet deep is larger than some of rooms in boarding houses that i've lived in before so it wouldn't feel cramped.

  1. there is gonna be a lot of work.


  2. plumbing, electric, air, heat, windows, insulation i think youd be better off just getting a used mobile home.

  3. It's going to be rustic, but I think it could be done.  A major impediment could be local building regulations.

    I see the biggest issue could be that it's not airtight.  Housewrap and insulation may cure that.  Get a good foundation and upgrade the window(s) to multipane.

    Sounds like a wilderness adventure.
