MyCabin, a Latvia-based startup, started building and selling minimalist, Scandinavian-inspired tiny homes to European customers in 2020.
Now Americans can purchase four of their units, which cost between $37,500 and $140,000. Already, there have been 7 orders in the US.
The Kalmus is a smaller option at 185 square feet. It costs $56,000 without a bathroom and $63,000 with a bathroom.
Two customers bought the Kalmus and put it in their backyards to use as an office, said Peter Seltenright, the cofounder of PrefabPads, the company that manufactures and distributes MyCabin designs in the US.
PrefabPads builds the MyCabin units — from the initial framing down to the smallest fixtures and finishes — in a brand-new Chicago factory.
The company wraps up the homes up and puts them on trucks to travel to their final destinations. Clients in Connecticut, New York, Maine, Utah, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin make up the first batch of US orders.
