I bought a tiny home for $30,000

A TINY home with a full bathroom and an "elevator" bedroom has listed for just $30,000.

The 16-foot by seven-foot tiny home has several features that optimize space.

The tiny home hit the market in Colorado Springs, Colorado, according to Tiny Home Talk.

The home sits on a dual-axle trailer, allowing owners to move easily move the home.

Metal encapsulates the home's roof and walls - the frame is built out of reclaimed hickory barn wood.

Plumbing, electrical wiring, and a water heater are all included in the home.

The home can easily hook up with electrical inputs, including solar panels.

The front of the home has a foldable porch attachment that can fit two lounge chairs.

The porch hinges and locks upwards for easier travel.

Inside of the tiny frame, the home has several dual-purpose rooms that enhance the space.

The tiny home owner didn't respond to several requests for comment from The U.S. Sun.

The home comes filled to the brim with several modern amenities.

The kitchen has a refrigerator, microwave, and toaster oven.

Reclaimed granite countertops sit on the kitchen cabinets.

A full-size bathroom with a toilet and a standalone shower sits in the back of the trailer.

The home's most unique feature is the dual-use bedroom and living room.

A bed suspends over the living by daytime - the home's occupants can pull steel wires to lower the bed into the room.

The "elevator" bed is manually operated.

Tiny homes heated up in the property market following years of inflating home prices and shrinking stocks of low-to-mid-level homes.

One money expert estimated homeowners can build a tiny home for $25,000 to $35,000.

Because tiny homes are growing in popularity, many localities have needed to update zoning codes to allow residents to live in the homes.

The money expert suggests people looking into tiny homes consider moving to North Carolina, Florida, Colorado, Texas, California, or Oregon because they have updated zoning laws.

The U.S. Sun reports on other tiny homes - here is a design that sells on Etsy for just $49.

Also, Amazon marked 50 percent off a tiny home.
