Shipping Containers Transformed Into Rustic Off-Grid Paradise

Living off-the-grid is in Grant’s DNA and his home is testament to that. Constructed from two 40ft shipping containers, his rustic home is innovative off-grid living at it’s best. It took a lot of hard work to get to where he is, but the result speaks for itself.

The home has been cleverly designed to maximise on living space. The twin shipping containers are separated with a large roof over the middle to create a central, undercover, outdoor living space complete with pizza oven, breakfast bar, dining table and outdoor lounger.

The twin shipping containers have been divided into one hosting the lounge, kitchen and spare bedroom and the other housing his bedroom, office, a large wardrobe and bathroom.

Grant’s home is a place where everything is multi-purpose and designed to be efficient while also making life comfortable. Despite the industrial nature of the home’s origins as shipping containers, he has also done a lot of work to improve the aesthetic, adding beautiful stone work, rustic timber elements and sub-tropical plants that make the house look truly at home set amongst the beautiful surrounding natural landscape.

Here, Grant is on a dream 10 acre property, with native bush, fresh water springs, and grazing for his animals. He has also added onto his home by using an additional two 40ft shipping containers to construct a large barn and workshop for himself. This really is the off-grid dream!

We hope you enjoy the full tour of this super cool off-grid container home.
