That's what I've got right now, down on the coast for my fish camp till I get the time to finish out the living quarters. Eventually I'll build something bigger down there, but it's just me and I'm only in my 30's so I don't need more than the 1 bedroom.

We built a 40' x 50' metal building on our property before we built our home. When we sold our house we moved all of our furniture into the metal building. We live in a 27' travel trailer inside the metal building while we built the new house. Worked out great I got my shop and I have a nice trailer for the deer lease. Total for trailer and metal shop was around $50,000.

We did this for 2 years. I walled off a portion of my shop and installed a mini-split inverter for climate control and we stored all of our possessions in there until we were able to build. It worked great for us.

We are in the process of doing the same thing with a 40x60 with a 24x60 lean to with one bay door. a 24x40 lean to on the other side with 2 bay door. We are also doing a small corner apt that will later be turned into my office
