Static Caravan converted for off grid living: Biggleswade, Beds
« on: September 24, 2012, 01:11:15 pm »
Hi there
Am looking to sell static caravan I no longer need.
Atlas Festival 34/10/3b. 10mx3m. 3 bedrooms, kitchen and lounge and bathroom with shower cubicle, basin and compost toilet. My partner and I lived in this caravan for 18 months and it was previously in a holiday park. We converted it for off grid living. We put in a Jotul woodburner and a compost toilet. We can leave Jotul woodburner and compost toilet in or remove, as you like. We wired the lighting up to run off 12 V (we ran off deep cycle batteries and may be able to sell you the batteries too).
All the bedrooms have fitted cupboards and drawers. The smaller two bedrooms have built in beds. The kitchen has fitted cupboards and is very nicely decorated (see photo). The lounge has no fitted furniture, just 1 wardrobe and a woodburner. You can make it your own by adding whatever furniture you like. Good quality blue carpet in largest bedroom, lino in kitchen. We put wooden floorboards down in the lounge and two smaller bedrooms. Located just 5 mins from the A1. I am happy to show you around. You will need to arrange transportation of the caravan to new location. Price negotiable. Happy to sell for a few hundred pounds.

We can also throw in some wood for the woodburner and woodchip for the compost toilet, even in bulk amounts if you are interested.  For more info please call Maryla on 07947 574237

Looks and sounds great  :thumbsup:  I'd have been pricing up transport to Devon if this had been 8 years ago... but I'm a Cumbrian farmer now!

It would make great WWOOFer accommodation, too.

Good luck with it.
Don't listen to the money men - they know the price of everything and the value of nothing

Live in a cohousing community with small farm for our own use.  Dairy cows (rearing their own calves for beef), pigs, sheep for meat and fleece, ducks and hens for eggs, veg and fruit growing

Oh, if I could only "beam" it to my land. Wouldn't get up the track though :( :( , though I do have right of access through my friends' fields at the bottom for a combine harvester :-\ :-\

Think my strict planning authority would notice this, unfortunately.  It would be great for someone who had a legal spot to put it on though.

I am looking for a static at the moment as we have just dismanteled the one that was in use as a chicken roost when we arived, and have a spare woodburner, so wouldnt need that - but am rather afraid that the transport to Bala North Wales would be astronomical?  Boo.  Will look into it though - any internal pics?  heers, Fi
