The Longhorn Stunning Container Home-In Alpine

Summary:
This stunning Container Home will not disappoint! With 1 bedroom and an inflatable floor mattress, it sleeps uptimes to 4 people. Features a super comfy Tuft and Needle queen mattress. The kitchen is outfitted in granite countertops. The rooftop deck is a great place to stargaze or enjoy a morning coffee. It boasts a full size, custom-tiled shower and spacious bathroom to complete this beautiful home. Located right outside of Alpine-2 minutes from downtown.

The Space:
This unique home started as a 40' shipping container. Our build company, CargoHome, insulates and panels the interior in pine shiplap and trim it out with fine craftsmanship. The outside is clad with cedar siding, spaced to allow the original container to still be seen. The fun rooftop deck is surrounded by a custom cable railing system and lit with LED lights that gives the deck a beautiful glow at night. LED lights inside and a super-quiet, efficient mini-split AC unit makes this a comfortable, energy efficient space.

Guest Access:
The house and rooftop deck are all yours!

The Neighborhood:
Great, safe neighborhood in the country just south of Alpine. 4 minutes to downtown Alpine. 1 hour to Big Bend National Park.

Awesome stay

The roof top in the evening with storms rolling in was amazing to watch. The container stayed nice and cold and dark for the am if you want to sleep in. Would stay again.

Cozy & charming

Enjoyed our stay here. Very comfortable even with triple digit temperatures all week. On the outskirts of Alpine so really close to everything. Sky deck was nice and views were great. Highly recommend!

Just like the photos

Tiny home was just like the pictures. Roof top deck was great for gazing at the stars and moon. Alpine does have a little more light pollution than I expected but still great view of the Milky Way in summer. Perfect location if you want to take day trips to Observatory, Big Bend, and Marfa. Such a cool home to make your base.
