this right here is a 2200 square F foot shipping container home built out of six six shipping containers that's pretty big as far as shipping container homes go that's massive and we're going to take a look at what this place actually looks like on the inside it's really cool it's got three beds three and 1 half baths it's got a cool balcony area with a motorized screen I'm going to show you all that a cool bar area attached I think you guys are going to be blown away with this so let's go ahead and take
a [Music] look I love the address plaque right here super cool see you've got a mixed so you've got a bit of mixed materials used here so you have like traditional building materials along with the shipping container so you can sort of see on the outside of that panel that it's a shipping container and on the inside there's actually some spots where you can see the original paint from the shipping container so again right here you can see uh the metal here and that is the um that's a balcony area so that is a motorized
screen that goes up and down it blocks sort of everything so let's go and take a look so it's a super open concept so you've got these really high ceilings you have the shipping container wall here so again six different uh shipping containers were used in the creation of this place we're going to go up there there's a uh the balcony is over there and then this is a cutout for a bar so you can just sort of hang out so that's a really cool space there if you look at these floors these floors are
actually the original floors from the shipping containers and they've used an epoxy over them so this is a red oak material that they use when they're actually transporting goods so you've got the dining room here you have like sort of the skeleton stairs here so you actually keeps your sight line so you can actually see everybody who's hanging out like you've got these big Windows too so I don't know if you can really get a sense of the space here again 2200 ft is pretty large for a shipping container home because usually you would just
have this one zone right here so like this would be one container right here um from let's say so down there at the end to here and if you just had a single home made out of a shipping container that would be the only space that you really have but here I mean that's that's just like a hangout Zone in your kitchen so let's see here TV here so you can sort of hang out over here so this place is actually going up for sale right now it's in Royal Oak Michigan suburb outside of Detroit
if you're interested in it give me a call I can absolutely help so again so in the center here we have cement so you have cement floors here with an epoxy coating so these are like a painted floor and then you're sort of flanked by the Red Oak and epoxy you sort of an eat in kitchen area like all the windows in here it's like a big wide open all way just you could just skateboard or roller blade down here so here's your laundry room so these um this place does not have a basement so
your laundry is going to be here on your main floor and what they've done here is you have a instant hot water heater so instead of it taking up there's a house right next door that has similar home and it has a fullsize hot water tank where this is the size of a suitcase and it Heats all your hot water for your house which is the way to go really I'm excited to show you guys that balcony so the the balcony and the bar I think is probably my favorite um so right here so right
off the kitchen area so you do have your half bath and it's big I mean it is big enough to um if you wanted to you could put like a corner shower area in here but it's not really needed cuz you have three other full baths here then you have the sliding doors because you know like when you're not working with a ton of space so any little bit helps so this is bedroom number one it's currently being used as an office looks out under the back patio we'll go out there in a bit but
you've got it's all hardscaped so that's super low maintenance here got bedroom number one this would be a good like guest space because you do have a full bathroom here this one has a tub lot of times people remove the tub i' say that's a bad idea don't ever remove a tub oh you need to at least have one tub and then this is a pretty big closet in here lots of storage space so right here you have these big double doors that lead out into the backyard so you do have a you know it's
a pretty big garage it's two cars two and a half Cars you got all that hangout space and then you've got this sight line which I think is super cool like all the way from here to here like a ping pong table right here be perfect fold up a ping pong table put it right here have it out right here it's sort of like the mud room SL Drop Zone again with the epoxy floors this just goes right out to the the side so we're going to travel upstairs here take a look at the what
do you think about this like you see the orange I like it I like that it it gives a little bit of Pop you've got the orange there the blue over here and we're going to travel up so again so they when they were building this they decided to keep a lot of this raw so let me let me see if I can zoom in on this a little bit to show you you've got like got the welds here so I think I love it I love the industrial look of it you lined up here
it feels big um it feels bigger than 2200 feet because it's 2200 squ ft of living space so this doesn't really count so whenever you have vaulted areas if you wanted to make some sort of a loft I assume you could um but this is you know being that it's so open it's very cool so right here you've got another bathroom walk-in shower definitely not a tiny home this will be your mechanical room high efficiency furnace again you can see so you can see the shipping container here right so you see the metal up there
I love that they kept these floors instead of like doing some new stuff over it just keep with the character of the ho a closet here a lot of extra storage it leads into another one of the bedrooms now so this bedroom again being used as an office here a view of the front yard and they have a Murphy bed here so this thing just pulls right down it's easy so you pop it right back up turns into an office again now let's go so that's the that's the balcony and bar I'll show you that
in a minute let's first go into the primary suit so it's right here so this is actually a piece of art uh that was turned into a door so I don't think that's going to stay replace it with something else so it's cool to see the different materials so again that's another shipping container here the width here of the container itself definitely the biggest room of the house but yeah I mean like why wouldn't it be a nice view of the patio got the blue again nice color pop Walkin shower sink toilet walk-in closet it's
got quite a bit of space here all right so now we have the belcony area I love this so you've got right here so this is that screen that we saw from the outside so you can actually see through it a little bit not a ton but it blocks sort of everything we've got this TV here uh covered up because of the elements and then in here we have the bar but let me let me show you this first so we have right here look at this love it so the owner has also added in
a space heater here or not a space heer it's more like a garage heater so you turn that thing on and it'll heat up this whole zone so you could really you could spend time out here anytime this is Michigan so you know the weather is gets a little dicey it could be sunny and then it starts snowing hanging out here and then you've got the full bar in here and they had this cut away so this wasn't a a standard thing here so he had this cut away and then this created here so you
can look over very cool very very cool so this right here this is the original paint on the shipping container itself so uh if anyone can look up this shipping container and figure out where it was or where it's been let me know tried to look it up and it just says decommissioned so the owner said that he tried to do it got any inter internet sleuths out there and then these little patches you'll see them in various spots apparently when the wood starts to rot in the original shipping container they cut it out and
then they replace it with this stuff so it's usually like a piece of metal here so these are like steel panels that are put in to sort of stop the rot to you know prolong the life of the thing all right we got to take a look at the outdoor space here so again you don't have any grass back here so this is all hardscaped and it is super low maintenance so you have this these Pap patios here got these Edison bulb lights cool like chill hangout Zone this fire pit little gardening area and then
the space is all fenced in so you can shut that gate down here close off this whole area use it hang out Park some cars do whatever you want and you're good to go I love that it's all exposed back here so you have the old shipping container doors here can't open them anymore but they're there is very cool to see so what do you think about the shipping container home would you want to live in one yourself let me know in the comments what you think about it um I think it's super cool I
love the entire concept of it and if you're still looking for places to live in Metro Detroit area or interested in other homes or tours check out some of the other videos and playlists on my channel I'll see you there [Music]
