Have you ever wanted to just give up on everything and retreat deep into the country, far from any society, where you can write a novel and raise goats and contemplate the stars, untrammeled by the presence of other human beings? If it’s your dream to become a modern-day Thoreau, this tiny house is the perfect place to do it.

Your new home is the Vista, a little house on wheels with a much more modern design than you would usually expect from a tiny house (or a trailer home, which is essentially what this is). In the city, all that glazing might be a privacy issue, but you don’t care because where you’re going, the only Peeping Toms are charming woodland critters.

Inside the house is everything you need: a bed that doubles as a sofa, a kitchen with a cooktop and undercounter fridge, a full-height storage cabinet, and even a pop-up television, if you’d like to be reminded of the world you left behind. The Vista XL, one of the options offered, even has a washer/dryer and a bathtub, a rare luxury for a tiny house.

The Vista is available for purchase from Escape Homes and starts at $29,800 for the smallest model (which is admittedly quite small). It can even be outfitted to operate off-grid, a convenient feature if you never want to see another human being ever again.

You can read more about the Vista tiny house and see more photos at the Vista website.
