It's official: The one thing your backyard's missing is a prefab tiny home. It might sound like a pricey and involved project, but tiny houses that are affordable and easy to build abound. And while Costco sheds are among the most popular backyard builds, you can also shop tiny homes on Amazon. Choose from a wide variety of design styles—cottagecore, modern, colonial—and layouts, from a backyard tiny house for multigenerational living to a modern outdoor guest house, gym, or greenhouse kit.
The second-best thing about an Amazon home (aside from the often reasonable price) is the speed in which you can receive your product. Your tiny piece of heaven can arrive in under a month—good luck finding a contractor who can match that! Whether you're a DIY pro or a crafting novice, you shouldn't have any trouble constructing these tiny houses, which kind of serve as your own custom dream house. Plus, is there anything better than enjoying something you actually made yourself? We think not. Though if you're not feeling particular handy, rope in a friend or parent to help with assembly–you can bribe them with post-build drinks!
If you have big plans to use the unit for more than storage or a fitness room, check your local zoning guidelines and restrictions. Some of the kits include insulation, windows, locked doors, and flooring. To make your shopping experience as seamless as possible, we listed the specifics, including dimensions, materials, and benefits. Below, check out 15 charming tiny houses and storage sheds you'll be proud to own.
Modular Wooden Tiny Home
This tiny home is perfect for anyone looking for a modern aesthetic and something that's actually inhabitable. It has a modular design that's customizable and is made of sturdy pine wood to help withstand bad weather conditions. Plus, it comes with floor covering and a panel roof, whereas many other tiny home kits require separate purchases.
Modern Foldable House
Build the cozy hideaway of your dreams with Officer Owl's prefab tiny house. The foldable home features a steel frame, complete with a hydraulic ceiling, four walls, and a floor. This house also has a built-in electrical system complete with LED lights as well as a fully plumbed kitchen and bathroom. Best of all? Set-up takes around 15 minutes or less, so you can retreat into the home ASAP.
Classic
With sturdy galvanized steel walls, this prefab shed is durable and has an industrial design that makes for a great DIY storage unit. The doors are designed, so that you can easily padlock them and it comes in a steel gray color or a fun bright blue. It works best as a storage space or work shed, and will help keep your backyard a bit more organized.
Hudson Wooden Storage Shed
This farmhouse-style shed comes in four different sizes and has the option to arrive with or without a floor. Its extra wide doors will be particularly handy if you're using this as a storage shed for furniture.
Arlington Storage Shed Kit
Finally, your colonial dreams can come true! This charming unit features gable windows, double doors, and a full second-floor loft with four to six feet of headroom. The light fixtures, paint, and shingles are not included, but that's an opportunity to put your own stamp on the place. You can easily personalize it by adding a few design features to your shopping cart.
Manhattan
The eight-foot wide doors of this tiny home open up and leave ample room for the prefab to be used as a garage, studio, or shed. You'll have to add a floor yourself, and unfortunately paint and shingles aren't included either, but that leaves lots of room for customization. You can even adapt the side door and windows to be exactly where you want them for a one-of-a-kind design.
Palisade
This instant pool house has a mod, Palm Springs–style flair we love. It's big enough for lounging after fun in the sun and for storing towels or pool accessories. Throw open the sliding barn doors to make an entrance with your favorite float.
Garden Storage Shed
This is a sleek looking shed that can be used to store lawn mowers and garden tools, pool toys and floats, and more. The design of the shed includes vents in both the front and back of the tiny home, allowing for proper ventilation for the items you choose to store inside.
Sun Room
The plethora of windows in this backyard tiny home let in loads of sunlight for you to enjoy through all seasons. You can use it as a studio or keep a table and chairs inside for outdoor entertaining. The front and back walls feature sliding doors you can keep open or closed depending on the weather.
Windemere
This elegant tiny house looks like it belongs on the shores of Cape Cod. It's also quite easy to assemble, with precut wood and two sets of operable windows. Paint the siding crisp white or classic navy to bring that New England beach aesthetic to your backyard.
Lifetime
This multipurpose unit is ideal for teenagers who insist on having their own space. The kit includes a shelving system—just add their favorite books or plants—and shatter-resistant windows for maximum volume. The door opening is extra wide for moving in furniture (or a drum kit). You'll want a helper to assemble it. They might want to pitch in this time.
Colonial Gable Greenhouse
Attention, plant parents: It's time to get the greenhouse your trees, shrubs, and flowers deserve. Though this isn't exactly what comes to mind when we picture a traditional greenhouse (or a mini home, for that matter), we're loving how the Dutch door and crisp white color instantly add charm to your outdoor space. It also comes pre-cut, primed, and ready to be painted.
Fairmont
Once this prefab find goes up, it's not coming down. All of the wood is dip-treated, which is a technique to help preserve it, and it's weather resistant. The screened windows with shutters let fresh air in and keep leaves and dirt out. It makes a sturdy mini garage, shed, or even tiny house.
Rookwood
For under $3,000, your partner can finally get the extra space they've been praying for. This barn-style unit comes in multiple sizes and is available with or without flooring for anyone with their own top-down DIY plans. The pre-primed wood is treated to protect against decay and unwelcome pests.
Penthouse Garden
It may not be on the top floor of a skyscraper, but this stylish prefab tiny home definitely lives up to its high-class name. From the unique facade to the French doors and sweet flower boxes, there are a lot of features that make this unit, which comes with panelized assembly pieces that are all precut, one of our favorites.
