Our first bus will be for sale in a couple of weeks, as a school bus but if you purchase it, Texas Tiny Homes is available to design and custom build you a conversion. The advantage to us doing the conversion is; it would be insurable since we are a professional building company and a Texas corporation. Insurance companies are not big on insuring bus conversions and tiny house trailers done by non professionals.
The bus is a 2002 International Bluebird 3800 and has 61,XXX miles on it. It’s powered by the International Harvester T444E diesel engine. It has air-brakes, front and rear air-conditioning, electric entrance doors, cruise control, AM FM stereo and is 28′ feet long, 8’6″ wide, and will provide approximately 20′ X 8’6″ of build-able space. The bus has two brand new batteries and a brand new starter solenoid.

Name: Natalie Pollard, owner of Villagers, and cat Melon Location: Candler, North Carolina Size: 265 square feet Years lived in: 6 months Natalie’s home may only be eight feet wide, but it is packed with inspiring design details and unexpected features for a tiny home including a large side entrance, a central bedroom loft, and the creative use of heirloom furniture pieces to contribute to that familiar feeling of home. She worked with the designers at Nanostead to create the 265 square foot portable home with the features that were important to her—mostly lots of windows for natural light—and the result is one of the sweetest small homes you will ever see.
Tim Eddy and Hannah Fuller: Tahoe, California Size: 196 square feet Years lived in: 1.5 years; Owned Hannah grew up in a home her parents built (her father is a boat builder), so it was only natural for her to follow in their footsteps. Tim, on the other hand, has never built anything but fires. With that in mind, Tim and Hannah started out with 20 acres of land and no blueprints, and built one of the most impressive houses I've ever seen in my life — not to mention it's fully off-the-grid.
