Capsule House for Sale in USA

Yes—capsule houses are for sale across the United States, and the market is growing fast. These compact, energy-efficient micro-homes are ideal as backyard offices, guest houses, tiny primary residences, or off-grid retreats. Unlike RVs or traditional tiny homes on wheels, most U.S. capsule houses are modular, insulated, and built to residential standards—often qualifying as ADUs (Accessory Dwelling Units) in cities that allow them.

FAQs

Q: Are they mobile?
A: Most U.S. capsule houses (like Capsule Homes or Boxabl) are not on wheels—they’re for permanent installation. For mobility, consider a tiny house on wheels instead.
