Country living doesn’t need to cost a fortune at this unique converted garage in Tennessee. 

The property has been playfully dubbed a ‘barndominium’ in the listing, a play on the common US term ‘condominium’.

The 78-square-metre home appears to have been created from an old garage, with a large sectional door still in place. 

A few small windows have been cut out of the corrugated metal walls, along with a comically-placed front door.

Inside is one bedroom, a bathroom and a kitchen with built-in cabinetry. There’s also a hefty wood-burning stove for cold winter nights. 

The listing describes the converted garage as “a cozy retreat with a touch of farmhouse elegance.” 

“This home is everything you’ve been looking for!” the listing says. 

If one garage wasn’t enough, the home also comes with a massive second carport with enough space to store four cars.

The barndominium is set on four acres of sloping land, most of which is woodland. There is also an enclosed veggie garden and a brand-new chicken coop for those who want to try their hand at hobby farming. 

The property is on the market for $US184,900 ($AU276,800).
