This is exactly how I thought a two bedroom should be payed out. It’s very nice. We currently have a one bedroom cabin. 16x32 cabin style barn. We went with a nice size garden tub. Still doing placement of the kitchen. This was supposed to be my daughter s cabin. We had something else planned for us but we can just change our plans a little to get use of it. Lots to do on the property so just happy to have a comfortable place. Those shed/cabins feel like home. Yours is really nice!
This is really cool! I like what you all are doing. Dutch and Daniel sent me here, so glad they did. Keep up the good work.
This is the perfect size for my dream house.
Y'all are doing a Awesome Job on your new casa!! 😉👍🤘 I can't wait to see the final!! 🏠😀
Ok you caught my attention, I've subscribed & gone back to when the 16x50 was dropped off. Will wait & see if there are videos on the plumbing & electricity...
Congrats! Your new home is beautiful! God bless!
Very impressive. Been looking at options like that. Amazing what you can do with a little determination

We're doing the same thing. We live out here in canton. You guys inspired us to go ahead and take the plunge after watching your interview. Would love some input later when we get ours delivered.
sam inman awesome! It's a ton of work haha . We have an updated video at the4 month progress mark
I know it’s a little late but for your next construction project study up a bit before you tackle your framing and learn how to properly frame a door/window header. Many times for people in this situation, just look at what the original manufacturer did to frame the windows and doors and follow what they did. The couple of walls you framed that had doors there is no support under the header to carry the load. The nails are the only thing transferring the load and I don’t think you were intending on adding a stud to each side yet cause then your doorway is going to be awful tight.
I’m not bashing you at all buddy, just trying to help ya learn. Other than that you did great from what I see.
Take care
We understand you're not out to put us down. We're always learning and love comments like this. Thank you for the help!
This really has a lot of room!! I didn't realize they had sheds this big!!!
I've been thinking about getting two of the smaller ones (with the porches) and putting them end to end.
This way I'd have double the room and a nice covered porch at the front and back door!!!!
Doe Eyes it's the biggest this company makes. we almost did the same thing so we could do both insides completely different
Does this Derksen model have a name that I can use to find one online? Thanks!
Time for a go pro bro, Looks like the fun is about to begin so let's gitter done!
This is EXACTLY what I’ve been looking for. Moving the family to North Texas from Southern Nevada. My wife and I are taking our mothers with us and moving out on some land. As far as I have researched, just have to have a septic per building. I like how you upgraded the floor too! Great job.
Thank you for checking out our videos! Yeah our property had a septic system in it already thank goodness.
Awesome! Glad we could help! If you ever any questions don't hesitate to ask! We love it here! The weather is *usually* pretty great!! Thank you so much again!
Great, can't wait to see it finished!
Almost makes Texas seem livable.
Really enjoying watching the growth of your homestead. We are just starting on ours so its neat to see. From a fellow Texan. Keep on keeping on!
Thank you so much! It’s been quite the adventure!
Thought bout it before we bought a used moblehome. Like to put a gamble roof on though. Built a 12x16 with 8' walls, gamble roof with loft while back. Been thinking about one for myself!!
The first thing I would do is to paint the exterior with a very high-quality paint. The paint they use is cheap, and your exterior will rot on you.
Take it from someone who ended up with rotting floors, if you use solid skirting, air flow cannot keep
moisture from destroying your subfloors
richard dalton thank you for the info! Since we used fence planks, they shrunk a little so there are gaps between the boards. But we might take a few planks out and add vents to prevent rot. again, Thank you for the advice
The Crocker Homestead I found a weak spot the hard way,I fell thru.
your place looks great,I could go for something like that myself
richard dalton oh wow! yeah that's the last thing we want to happen. Hopefully you can do something like this soon. We love it
How much is one of those?
Alyssalite bowens $17,000 with all the upgrades
Hi,
I just found your channel and subscribed...!
Thank you for sharing this information with us.
Have a great day and Be Blessed...!
what is the price of the shell and where is it sold
nice!! I'd have kept or slapped in one loft ..for storage and I'm ready to dive in ...to a tub I have to have 1 am I being unreasonable?, spoiled or....?? I'm ready to purchase my tiny home and an ready..as I'm sick of paying over 7k a year on rent with nothing to show for it...no privacy and rude loud neighbors!
Hey guys. Just noticed your from Terrell. Moving my family to Longview in August to start our homestead.
That’s awesome! Congratulations!🤗
Nice Job!🙏🇺🇲🙌🙏🤩😊
Solid Idea, very cool
How much did it run you in all? How do you add in the windows after built? The other things I’m guessing you had them do, like the vapor wrap or did you have to remove and add? Do you all ever help others with finishing out their building? Just curious! You all did an awesome job!
Wasser Man thanks for checking out our video. We had the company add the vapor wrap when they were building the shell. This was out first time building a house. We had to reframe the walls where we wanted to install the windows. Overall we will end up spending about $45,000.
have you tried turning your phone sideways while filming ? good video
just put in full screen if you are watching on your phone..
I know, I cant stand those little window views from a vertical held phone haha
Soldier Of The Cross. First world problems haha
Yes, Please. Those of us that are watching this on a widescreen TV or computer monitor would be able to view the video with a MUCH higher definition and use the widescreen mode. Please consider filming in widescreen mode in future videos.
Yeah I know, the videos since then have been adjusted.
Spray foam that place and it will help you out with heating and structure
We wish we could have had the budget for that
Looks great! I'm south of y'all closer to the coast, I've been looking for laws concerning this here in Texas but can't find anything. Guess I'll start with my county and see if there's anything specific to where I live.
Bad ass!
How much did the shed cost ?? How much money will it take to complete the conversion to a home ?? Cost of all materials ??
could you do a post or quick video about the permits and building code for turning a shed into a permament living space? I cant find many resources online about how so many people are doing this!
Well we moved to a rural area in the county where we didn't need any permits. If you find any info please share with us. Follow us on Facebook and Instagram if you haven't. @thecrockerhomestead
Might do the same soon.🙂🙂🙂
Some shed companys dont offer the option of house wrap. Any suggestions on what to do to replace that?
Your home will be just like I imagine mine to be like when I moved to Montana. I don't think I will have as many windows as yours nor will I have a dormer . My entrance will be on the side of the cabin not like yours. Although, I really like yours. Thanks
In montana 4yrs now..libs took over..no place allows these..at least on grid most off grid doesnt allow either..we r going to Texas in october
Nice build. What is it set on? Block ? Or slab?
Serge 1 thank you. We put rock (road base) down several inches thick, then cinder blocks
The Crocker Homestead thanks for the response build looks great I’m in the process of doing something like that. Also did you anchor the build anyway to the blocks? Thanks again for reply
Your best bet is to anchor it into the ground somehow. Basically like a mobile home. Everyone does it different.
Nice.
How much?
Is it on a actual foundation?
How much total as it is hear everything including land, well, septic, foundation, electric, gas, etc???🙂
Don't be fooled it's a lot of work ..an materials cost a lot of money..be sure you know what you are getting into. Make sure you buy building out right because derksen contracts from finance company state no alterations to building..or full payment will be demanded..we paid one derksen building off an it's been 3 weeks an still no certificate of ownership has been sent..be very careful
How much did that cost you the way it is
Where's the kitchen?
was the upgrades the floor joist, dormer and vapor barrier ? was the 16" centers also an upgrade cause most of there stuff is on 24". also what thickness is the flooring and type osb,plywood, ect. i am going to order one asap the same as yours however i dont want the back door in that location is that also an upgrade to have it relocated? thank you and great job!!!!!!!!!
Yes sir the upgrades were: Vapor wrap around the building, 12 inch on center flooring, 8ft tall walls and the dormer. I cant remember the thickness of the flooring, it's a treated plywood. The building comes with nothing, we had the front door and back door added on. We bought all custom windows (didn't want the ones they provide).
Do y’all have a floor plan you can send me? I’m buying one of these within the next couple of months and need some ideas (:
We have a full video on our floorplan! It's in our Shed to House playlist
Show us the completed project, please!
Watch our other videos
How much are one of these or where do we go to find one on the internet
Jerry Cook this was $17,000 with all the upgrades. We bought it from a Derksen dealor in north Texas
Does the inside of the building measure 16 x 50 or is that measuring from the outside. Asking so I can plan a layout to see if this will work for me.
Natalia Mendoza outside. Some companies give you true measurements on the inside, but it's rare
Yooo!!! I’m from terrell and wanting to do the same thing!!!! Much love
That's awesome! Maybe we can meet up some idea and get you on a vlog!
The Crocker Homestead that would be so cool!!
Will you do a video on the foundation under your shed? I'm about to get one soon and I was wondering if they set it on concrete blocks did you tie it down etc? I'm clueless as to what it needs to look like or how to do it.
yeah, my question too...what foundation are you using?
You can sit it on blocks or you can do concrete foundation. Or blocks and straps. I am thinking about buying one as well
We had a few inches of roadbase and placed concrete blocks
I’d wasn’t trying to upset you if I did I apologizes. But I’m serious about strapping it down. A mobile home is designed and engineered to be strapped to a steel frame and upon set up it is strap to the ground from the steel frame preventing uplift unfortunately your building wasn’t designed like that there’s no straps going up over the rafters tiring in the walls to the sill plate. The building was only designed for storage not for living quarters. You have a Lot of views I only recommend you educate your viewers
Patrick Rolf this video is almost a year old. We've done many things to it
🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
😁
Did you take the siding off to add the vapor wrap??
Al Barnhill we paid to have it put on at the shed dealer when they built it. It honestly didn't cost much extra either
The Crocker Homestead you have done a spectacular job.. thanks for your reply
What type of insulation did you use?? And did you insulate the floors
What's you foundation?
Just a mobile home.
Can this be put in a mobile home park?
Alicia Dennis not sure
Made in America! This was $17,000 with the upgrades
Lmao no u cant put it on a trailer park lmao wtf?
Which category is this shed in. I'm looking into buying this exact one
Its Magic not sure what you mean by category. We bought it from a Derksen deal or in north Texas.
The Crocker Homestead ah, I looked on their website, and they split up all the houses in different categories but don't give you pictures as to what they look like
So what is the difference between these and mobile homes/ trailers?
for one a MH is finished
You dont have to work your ass off either
Generally mobile homes use lessthan 2x4 for studs. Less than 1/2 inch drywall, and have less sturdy floors and ceilings. This building has a 30 year roof and 50 year siding and advertised to stand up to 150mph wind... So work your ass off now and own it outright..... Or work your ass off on your MH in 10 years when you still owe over 30k to pay it off....
The price is one difference
You can basically customize it like you want and make it a whole lot more air tight and solid. Plus it''s cheaper than a MH !!!
Two families in there? Idk about that. That would make a great cabin.
toben42 haha just 3 people. Two bedroom two bathroom.
How much is this cabin?
Mike Hernandez
It was 17,500 with a few upgrades.
The Crocker Homestead For the size that’s a really good price
Don Mayfield it says it in the video.
how much $$$ was just the building .
T M maybe $15,00 without the upgrades
Hi 😀
How high are the walls are they 8" ?
I am buying one just like your building from same company.
Sara See yes, 8 foot! It makes a huge difference from the standard walls
Thank you
Dude ... take your camera out of portrait mode! No one wants to see a narrow space of the frame. 2/3 of the frame is blocked out. Its annoying!!!
Bye bye
It’s cheaper to build a house yourself. The rough in framing is all you get apparently you didn’t price a 2x4 before you payed thousands of dollars for a shed. I hope you strap your overpriced chicken coop down.
White people renovating houses!! Open concept! South Park? Nobody?
