All you need is around $2000 to begin building one of these epic homes – made from recycled shipping containers! Check out some of these amazing creations!
A luxury home doesn’t always necessarily mean thousands of square footage, towering great rooms and gilded toilets. Take these homes for example: to begin building one of these epic houses, all you need is $2,000. That $2,000 will buy you a shipping container. What you do with that shipping container… well, that’s completely up to you. Some creative people have found a way to transform this rudimentary “room” with metal siding into luxury housing that blows us away. These homes are epic.

I would never have though of doing most of these things with a simply shipping container. Like turning the container into a pool. That idea is just genius, and so resourceful. Also turning a few containers into a house is so awesome. I would love to try living in the house, I think it would be fun. http://www.bettastorage.com.au/shipping-container-hire-nsw

I can't even tell you how awesome and cozy these shipping containers look after the renovations and unique ideas were applied to them! Some of these shipping containers honestly look better than most homes that are 100 times more expensive! How much did you say it was to get a shipping container to do something like this? Also, how much on average would it be to renovate one of these containers to be a comfortable living quarter? I'm going to look into some more plans for these shipping containers, especially the picture in the middle where they turned it into a swimming pool!
