The 2 bed 1.5 bath home was built out of new steel shipping containers by a custom home builder called Bobs Containers in the fall of 2022.
It was installed onsite in the spring of 2023.
The containers are welded together and sealed with silicone roofing adhesive at all junction points.
The foundation and retaining wall for the back patio is solid poured concrete with rebar reinforcement, not block.
The home is welded to steel plates set into the foundation at the corners, so this thing is built to last!
The home is designed to maximize views and accommodate enough storage and space for a small family to live comfortably.
The previous owners were a young couple who designed the home and lived in it for a year before unexpectedly having a child and outgrowing the space. With so many family members visiting to help out with the baby, they needed something bigger and closer to Murfreesboro.
They really thought of everything when building out and decorating the interior. A queen-sized platform bed was custom built with massive storage drawers underneath. Floor to ceiling closets were installed to maximize storage while preserving space.
A stacked washer and dryer, full bathroom, and cozy living room really make this place a home. The full kitchen with brand new appliances and large patio have everything you need to entertain guests.
Upstairs, you'll find a private room with its own half bath and incredible views of the surrounding hills. Use it as an office, or install a bunk bed for kids or guests.
The rooftop deck provides sweeping views of sunrises, sunsets, mountains, and wildlife in all directions. The hot tub is an AquaRest Premium 5 person lounger with 29 jets, ozone, and LED lights.
It was brand new in 2023. Works great, hard wired to 240V outlet so it heats up fast. Turn on the rope lights and relax with the best views around.
The crawlspace provides ample storage space, plus there is a huge detached garage. The garage has a brand new functional garage door, but has not been wired yet. A conduit was run from the main pedestal though, so it will be extremely easy to set that up.
The lot is 1.74 acres, surveyed in 2023 and marked with t-posts at all corners. It is 100 feet wide at the street and widens toward the bottom of the hill.
There is a two bedroom septic with a leach field at the very bottom of the hill, so no worries about backups or septic issues with that kind of fall. The home has three individual mini split AC units to heat and cool the home efficiently and effectively.
The home is extremely energy efficient with a 200amp service. The utility bills for water, electric, and internet never got above $175/month total with the couple living there full time.
The back patio is filled with gravel, not dirt so weeds won't be an issue.
The property has three peach trees, two apple trees, and a huge fenced-in garden area. It is a little known fact that the municipality of Auburntown is a unique place to build due to its opting out of building regulations. Avoid the annoying red tape and make this place your dream property. Start an agricultural homestead, generate income with a profitable rental, or have your very own private country getaway.
