Tiny Texas Houses
Building Tiny Texas Houses out of 100 year old materials.
Our newest adventure into the world of reclaimed materials and what one can do with them is the Tiny Texas Houses Project. We have begun a new phase of expansion whereby we will be using all of the great materials we stock to build 95% recycled materials houses that will look original in nearly every way except that they will have new wiring, insulation, plumbing and will be portable. They will be built to modern codes, Tyvek wrapped, extra insulated roof, and designed to last longer than anyone who buys one. They will be true to our company mission in that there will not be a better product like it on the market. Actually it should be the only 95% recycled portable Tiny House on the market in the USA. Yes there are others who make Tiny Houses, but none who use exclusively vintage lumber and focus on the handmade quality and details of the old days, with original Cypress windows, period doors, hardware, and everything old.
We will have at least five styles that we will create initially but we will be doing Custom Tiny Houses based on the incredible inventory we carry and the many styles of the past. No two will ever be exactly alike. Clients will be able to come in and pick from 6,000 doors, 3,000 windows, thousands of square feet of flooring, bead board, shiplap, and sidings all from the periods that the houses were originally made from 100 years or more ago. We will even offer a Tiny House Cloning Service to take a picture of Grandpa's house and duplicate it on a small scale.
The sizes of Tiny Texas Houses will range from 8'x16' to as large as 12' x 20' with the ability to put a couple units together in order to create a larger space more akin to the multi-generation houses of the past. They started with the small homestead house, then added on as the wife or kids arrived with the passage of time.
Join us in the adventure and watch as the evolution of Tiny Texas Houses comes into the world, born from tons of materials stored in the 150,000 square foot of inventory that makes up Discovery Architectural Antiques. Pricing for Tiny Texas Houses will range from $25,000-$55,000 but custom models could amount to more.
One of the other unique features will be the option of having grey water and black water plumbing systems so as to conserve water, allowing one to use the grey water for plants and separating out the black water for composting or simply taking away to dispose of elsewhere.
We will also feature a solar power option that will take care of lighting, water pumps if we use a cistern, and that way limit the amount of actual energy consumption for those that want to just drop them out in the woods or by the pond, far away from the utilities that most people are tied to for survival. Of course in Texas, you may still need a generator for the air conditioning.
