It has a total of 3 bedrooms, outdoor room, laundry, walk in pantry, bathroom, kitchen and huge internal living area with clerestory windows and 4m ceilings. It also includes large outdoor deck areas and a storage unit below.The 40 FT containers’ roof overhangs 3 meters to serve as a carport located right next to the main entry door.
Built on a sloping block, we utilised a 20 foot container to act as storage and part of the footing structure for the top storey. This helped to keep the home elevated on the block in order to make the most of the incredible views, while also giving the family an extra storage space.
