apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

It's the real thing. When you want to get out of the city and find yourself a little heaven on earth, you need a house you can afford, and it doesn't need to be that big. After all, there is that huge yard....

Retreat Homes of England has solved the problem. A rolling mobile home that can be set down anywhere on a simple concrete slab or individual pads, it features modern styling and real wood finishes.

"There are no faux finishes. Where there is wood, it is solid timber, where there are windows, they are floor to ceiling glass. The Retreat has a traditional galvanised steel chassis and can be sited on a simple concrete slab or individual pads, without the need for expensive foundations."

What if you set it down on top of your factory buiding in Long Island City? It would become a handsome penthouse. (Thanks,MoCoLoco!) MGR
