Prefab Pads has brought a European Designed Prefab Home to America. Last week I went to Chicago to check out their line of modular homes that are available now. They’re one of the first companies to successfully bring the Nordic look to America and here is a chance to get a tour of their largest model. In this video I check out their Milla Long, a 456 square foot prefab home with a 64 square foot loft. Watch to learn more about this cool prefab home.

WOW, $150K, that's insane! The whole purpose of these small homes was suppose be the affordability. These should not be more $30K.

For something this luxurious I would spend up to $75k, but agreed on defeating the purpose. This seems very high for the concept.

Very overpriced for tiny home living. Dehumidifiers are a must as they get very mildewy. Also windows don't open to let in fresh air. Should have big windows that open from the bottom up for great ventilation.

Having the washer in the bathroom also means you can come in from exercising or doing yard work and throw the sweaty clothes right into the washer before you take a shower. I would put the bath towel in the dryer so it was nice and warm along with my clothes.

Kerry, out in the wild, go to the origin of the deep dish pizza, Uno Pizzeria in Chicago. It is the best ever ! This is coming from a guy that lives on the beach on the Gulf of Mexico. Seeing a place with your 6 foot plus up in there really helps at understanding the size of each room. I Love the way you showed the loft area. You did it in a way that really Matters. At my farm, the washer/dryer lives in the bathroom. You strip, clothes go in the washer, very convenient.

@carolynvranjes3396 Месяц назад

@eattherich9215 Месяц назад

The bathroom is the correct location for a washer and/or dryer, albeit there should have been a door to hide them. I did a complete remodel of my last home and the washing machine went in the bathroom. I couldn't do it here since I only replaced some of the existing fixtures and fittings in a very small bathroom.

@cancelbubble6535 Месяц назад

The big windows always sound cool, but that place needs more standard windows that open so you can get good air flow to vent hot air. The problem with those big windows is they're going to act as a greenhouse in the summer and when the window seals eventually fail, which they will, those will be very expensive to replace. There is essentially no pantry in that unit, all the kitchen cabinetry is going to hold kitchenware stuff. They really need to build a unit 200 square feet more. Or two units that can be paired/joined together that overall would give you 200 square feet more. I think 700-800 square feet really hits the sweet spot at small, but extremely livable/comfortable.

@doloresreynolds8145 Месяц назад

@cancelbubble6535 Месяц назад

@@miles5600 between the layers of glass. Window seals fail, it's just a matter of time. Those exposed to direct sunlight fail faster. You can tell a window seal has failed by moisture between the panes or if they're foggy but nothing happens when you try to wipe away the condensation, because the fog is inside the window. In that case, the glass needs to be replaced.

@miles5600 Месяц назад

@@cancelbubble6535 maybe this isn’t really a problem with European tilt and turn windows. Overall they’re much better built than American slide windows and in my 30 years of living and having renovated multiple houses that were older than 30 years i’ve never seen those windows condense. They’re usually replaced in most homes after 30 years because of the improvements happening in the window industry, a new trend here where i live is triple pane that’s now seen in pretty much every new installation.

@FGM013 Месяц назад

Finally! A small home with compact appliances in the kitchen. I would prefer different windows (transoms and windows that do not go to the floor) and no loft but that’s just me.

@skyak4493 Месяц назад

I presume these are customizable (for the price), but what you describe is a garden variety prefab -available cheap from many builders. The premium windows and kitchen are what set this company apart. This is for premium lots and ADUs, not trailer parks.

@FGM013 Месяц назад

@@skyak4493 I refer to size not quality. Full size appliances use space that is better allocated for storage. Most prefabs and mobile homes have full size appliances because they tend to cost less than than compact versions. When I renovate my daughter’s rental properties, I have found that the tenants appreciate the smaller, quality appliances. Windows that go to the floor reduce the functionality of the space. You can get the same visual sense of an expansive space with a large window that is approximately 30-36” from the floor. Transom windows and skylights allow additional natural light.

@kschleic9053 Месяц назад

The windows to the floor are probably a wash cost-wise vs the material and labor of adding a knee wall, a window sill, and wall finishes. Where would you add a transom window?

@FGM013 Месяц назад

@@kschleic9053 Yes, it might be a wash cost wise but my point was about functionality, most specifically in furniture placement in very small spaces, not cost. Transom windows are placed above windows or doors. Historically, they would open and allow airflow into a room. Most modern transom windows are fixed. Clerestory windows serve a similar function. They are placed high upon the wall but are not in alignment with windows or doors. They allow additional light into a room while preserving privacy.

@kschleic9053 Месяц назад

@@FGM013 if the concern is just flexibility in furniture placement, a common solution is to apply a blackout film to the inside surface of the window where necessary to keep the sun off the back of the couch or chair.

I had two skylights taken out in the living room of my house, you don’t have to worry about bugs and spider webs. The heat in the Summer in your house isn’t so bad either. The loft doesn’t look very safe. Kids like to roll around an could easily fall from there. If you could have a separate space for a deep sink washer/dryer and cabinet above would give you a utility room. More kitchen and a little less living room. 👍🏻🇺🇸

My peeve is plumbing on exterior walls, in seriously cold areas pipes can freeze fast.

Having just moved back to Chicago after 18 years of too much Florida, I'm delighted to see a Chicago-based company in this space. I'm considering buying a few acres in unincorporated township of Illinois and placing four or five of these. What a nice way to establish a home in one and make rentals of the others. Call it AirBnB or normal rentals. Either makes great sense. Kerry as always, thanks for doing the exploring for us. Detailed walk throughs are great. My only suggestion is for Prefab Pads to make an alternate to the loft that would allow the raised roof to allow in the light and then have some storage over the shower and washer/drier stack for boxes. That would be enough for me and still allow the volume of the higher ceiling. Since I am local to these guys, I might make a trek up to see them soon.

Another advantage of washer dryer in bathroom is you can put your dirty clothes right into washer before get into shower. 😀. I did enjoy the tour (always do like how you do these). It does look spacious and i like the 'feel' and layout and all the windows. I love windows as long as it's on private land and rural with lots of nature surroundings...to look at. I shower mostly, and i really like this one, but i got to have a tub to soak in sometimes so i wonder if there is some kind of portable and removeable structure... that can go into a shower staff for occasional use. Where this stall looks big enough to hold one... to be used temporarily as a a small tub. Seems to me that i saw something like that in an ad many years ago. What i remember too is that it was even foldable and easy to store....until want to place it into shower stall when prefer a bath. I guess i should try on my own to see if i can find it again. Maybe it was a Japanese make is also the impression i have right now.

Thanks Kerry, I hope this comment is helpful: This home is very cute. But. At $155k, as pictured, most people are still going to find it too expensive, as a one bedroom tiny home. I think overall the tiny home trend isn't going to go as viral as it could until companies find ways to reduce both their costs and their expectations. The consumer is comparing these homes to stick built homes in their minds. Not to other tiny homes. There is no point to going with something like this unless it is substantially cheaper than a stick built home of a similar size. The only people that will see this as priced well are people who can afford whatever home they want anyway. But the average person will look at this home as being worth no more than $100k at best. And probably lower than that. One company that seems to have figured out the dilemma in building tiny homes is the Incredibox company on the east coast. They use Amish workers. I sincerely hope this comment helps someone.

The incredibox website says that their homes range from $19k-$149k. It would be surprising if they're offering a model 450sqft or larger with similar amenities at a price significantly lower than the model in this video.

@@Charlie_snail Yes they have a nice variety of homes for less than $100k. They sell different types of tiny homes with different price points. People have to keep their heads about these tiny homes. Yes they are very cute but buyers can't just go off whether they like them or not. Instead their cost has to make sense. Or else one won't be happy for long, their purchase will quickly cause remorse and not seem worth the ongoing expense. Leading to problems.

Thanks Kerry! I really like the layout and size. Renting numerous Paris airbnbs, most had washers in the bathroom.. Love the windows but dislike the walls, (no contrast) would prefer sheet rock for the walls and wood finish for the ceilings.

Seems like a cute small home. Personally I would want at least 1 more room, for an office. I do like the loft idea, which I would use as storage.

Yeah an office would be nice

I enjoy your videos and the exposure of what is possible. I always wonder how comparable these are to a custom built home. The base price of various prefabs seem to be in the $400+ per sq ft, which seems very high. I welcome a video explaining how prefab is more cost efficient. I always habe the same issue with tiny homes.
