A man has built the ‘world’s smallest tiny home‘ that measures just 19.46 sq ft.
Levi Kelly decided to build the minuscule property – which has everything a normal-sized house would – in a bid to win a Guinness World Record.
The 27-year-old has included seating, a bed, kitchen, hot water, a toilet, shower and air conditioning.

Levi has also shared the clip of the unique build to YouTube, where it has 30,100 views so far.
“To get it to be so small while remaining functional, I added a folding bed and moveable toilet,” the YouTuber, from West Virginia, US, told What’s The Jam.
“As well as having the shower outside, to help with space.
“You have to be shorter than 5ft 10in to sleep straight inside.”
Levi has spent around £3,824 ($5,000) on the project.

He said: “I had a small trailer already.
“Fixed it up and started with the framing just like a normal house.
“Exterior is cedar cladding and it is insulted.

“Then I used 2x3in studs to save a little space and weight.”
And inside is definitely an experience.
He said: “Everyone who walks in says ‘wow’.
“People seem to be impressed that everything can fit in such a small space.
“Is it made to be lived in full-time, possibly.
“Would anyone want to? Probably not.”
Levi hopes to use the home to go on camping trips with his wife Savannah and their two children – aged three and nine months respectively.
But there are a few things he would change.
He said: “If there was anything I’d change it would be the fold-down bed and ventilation.
“The space to get into the bed is pretty tight.
“Also, I forgot to add ventilation so the hot air gets trapped at the top.
“I would also make the bench fold out for a larger platform that could be used as a second bed.
“I would also change the battery situation, adding a larger battery and better solar panels for more off-grid usability.”
In the YouTube video, Levi can be seen in front of the tiny home on wheels, before explaining its interior and the process of building it.
Dan said: “Outstanding work at any price but that $5k build total really puts it over the top!”
Lyn added: “This is so clever!! Well done.”
Pam wrote: “Dang, that really impressed me. How would one of those net beds work?? Brilliant, just Brilliant, Levi!”
Someone else said: “I’m actually impressed Levi, great job.”
Connor commented: “This is craaaazy! So well done man!”
Terry added: “Very Inventive and very well thought out, WOW, Congratulations!”
Levi claims to have broken the record. Jam Press has contacted GWR to confirm.
