Grain Silo Converted into Amazing Off-Grid Tiny House – FULL TOUR

Pam and Dave bought an old disassembled grain silo and converted it into a stunning round tiny house. They lived off-grid in the home for 4 years using solar power for electricity, a well for water, a composting toilet, and propane for heat and hot water.

The barn home has a small mud room for coats, boots, and cleaning supplies, and then the main round space is an open concept multi-use space with a living room, dining room and a kitchen with a pantry built into the staircase. Upstairs they have a bedroom and a bathroom with special touches like a sun tunnel oculus to bring in natural light, a round cedar tiled floor, and best of all, the stunning round peak ceiling!

Building in a circle was challenging but the couple came up with clever solutions like using tongue and groove wood vertically so that it would go around the circle. They also came up with unique ways of finishing things off, like using rope for trim, and cutting plywood into pie shapes to make the ceiling.

The silo is 500 square feet, and 19 feet in diameter and 20 feet high. It's made up of corrugated metal pieces that are fastened together and it is set up on a heated and insulated concrete pad. The interior has 2x4 stick framing with spray foam insulation.
