Tow it, drop it, hook it up—that’s all it takes to add living space to almost any lot. Wheelhaus makes prefab homes designed for “living large with less.” These rolling cabins start at $76,000 for just under 350 sq ft of living space. It is a cool way to add living space. Check out the styles.

The Wedge, Starting at $92,000

The original Wheelhaus, the Wedge, is the base model for our rolling cabins, all of which are designed to offer a combination of a rustic and modern aesthetic.

The Wedge features an angled roof, which starts low above the bedroom and builds to 17 feet in the living room. Trapezoidal windows grow similarly from back to front, offering natural light while maintaining privacy.

The front of the cabin is almost entirely glass. A large sliding glass door opens to a private deck.Each cabin features one bedroom, a bathroom, a kitchen/living room and a private deck. The ceilings and exterior sides are covered with reclaimed Wyoming snow fencing.

The Caboose, Starting at $97,000

The Caboose has a complex roofline that enables a loft. The loft is five feet tall and can accommodate two twin-sized beds or a king. Some buyers have chosen to make the loft their bedroom and convert the downstairs bedroom into an office, dining space or spare room.

The Light House | Wheel Haus

The Light House, Starting at $92,000

The design of the Lighthouse is long and lean to enable more expansive windows. This is a great option for anyone looking for an incredible view. The front of the Lighthouse has windows across the entire 40 feet, as well as much of the sides. This enables massive light and outlooks. The Lighthouse is the right model for buyers who aren’t concerned about privacy.

Since this cabin is wide instead of long, many buyers choose to add on a 10×12 foot front deck across the front, creating 120 square feet of additional outdoor living space. It’s for this reason and the Lighthouse’s easy ability to combine with other models that we recommend this model for buyers interested in larger cabins.

Each cabin features one bedroom, a bathroom, a kitchen/living room and a private deck. The ceilings and exterior sides are covered with reclaimed Wyoming snow fencing.

The Silo | Wheel Haus

The Silo, Starting at $76,000

The Silo was designed to move. Measuring 41 feet in length and 8 feet 6 inches in width, it is surprisingly lightweight, very easy to transport and affordable to ship. Retro meets modern on the Silo’s exterior, which features aluminum with rounded corners complemented by circular windows.

The Silo features one bedroom, a bathroom and a kitchen/living room. In the bedroom, a set of four drawers and an under-counter hanging closet support a butcher-block counter top, which also serves as a desk. Track lighting is included for properly lighting artwork.

 

The Rail Car | Wheel Haus

The Rail Car, Starting at $95,000

The Railcar has the addition of a rear door and back deck, giving the cabin two entrances. The extra outdoor space is perfect for a BBQ or hot tub. The roof continues over the back deck at an opposing angle. This simple addition has a large impact on the striking, modern appeal of the Wheelhaus structure.

The Railcar’s design features an angled roof, which starts low above the bedroom and builds to 17 feet in the living room. Trapezoidal windows grow similarly from back to front, offering natural light while maintaining privacy. The front of the cabin is almost entirely glass. A large sliding glass door opens to a private deck.

Each cabin features one bedroom, a bathroom, a kitchen/living room and a private deck. The ceilings and exterior sides are covered with reclaimed Wyoming snow fencing.
