I looked at small cabins a couple of year ago in hopes to do something sooner. The biggest stumbling block is the lack of a bathroom for when a well and septic are eventually put in. No running water or bathroom are no-goes for bringing my wife. A small cabin built with a layout that would offer a place to spend time in at a low up front cost and build time with easy add ons for a bathroom and possibly other rooms that didn’t look like afterthoughts. Something that would easily integrate plumbing later would be the holy grail IMO of small cabins. The foundation cost was the hurdle for me. Digging a foundation for enclosed plumbing. I don’t think I’d want plumbing under an exposed pier foundation or trust a slab and burst pipe issues and then having to do it again with the addition of a bathroom and well/septic a few years later.

No idea... it was an internet grab. What we are building and shipping would be a plumb and level structural frame (massively overbuilt). 11" x 11" columns, 6 x 19 beams. The walls are only infill... i.e. ZERO load bearing. These are the typical "blank" SIPS we make... Doors, windows, siding, wood paneling... whatever. OR... Build your own on site. Same with the roof If you are not actively engaging EVERY enemy you encounter... you are allowing another to fight for you... and that is cowardice... plain and simple.

Assuming $3.50 per BF that is $24.5k in materials... add doors and windows... concrete and deck... plus labor (maybe $25k-$35k more). $50k-$60k is a very fair price for that build... My goal is to beat the hell out of that number. We will see.

The American Indians lived off grid and they were smart enough to build a big enough Tee Pee. Check on prices of care homes. If you can stay in your own home longer , I’ll take that deal !
