The bathroom is a respectable size, I’d argue much bigger than the bathroom in New York you’re paying over $4000 a month for.
Being both charming in design and spacial awareness, this trailer, however, isn’t able to be on the move due to the wider nature of it. The darker oak panels contrast nicely against the white walls, which is ideal for making this home, yours.
