The Chattanooga from Amish Built Cabins offers 1,026 square feet of finished living space, two bedrooms, two bathrooms and a lofted second floor, plus a long covered front porch. The builder lists a sale price of $199,900, down from a regular price of $220,000. It suits anyone who wants a taller, airier layout than most small homes offer, but that price is only part of the total.
What the $199,900 Price Does and Doesn’t Cover
Amish Built Cabins shows $199,900 as the sale price for this model, with the regular price at $220,000. The builder says transportation, foundation work, crane service, site preparation, utility connections and installation charges vary by project and are quoted based on your property. Treat the sale price as a starting point, not a move-in total.
Amish Built Cabins currently shows this model as sold out. Ask whether this exact design is available now, and get the current price in writing before you plan around it.
Two Bedrooms Standard, Three With an Addition
The standard Chattanooga has two bedrooms and two bathrooms. The builder says a third bedroom is possible with a lean-to bump-out addition, but that change needs design and engineering approval and may bring extra charges. A bump-out also changes the footprint, so the 1,026 square feet and the quoted price may not hold for a three-bedroom version.
The builder names couples, smaller families, retirees and vacation rentals as good matches for the two-bedroom plan. If you need three bedrooms from day one, ask for a quote on the addition before you commit to the base model.

Living With the Loft, Stairs and Mini-Split Heat
The lofted second floor sits above part of the bedroom and bathroom section, and the builder describes an open great room with tall ceilings and an exposed stairway. That open look is the main draw, but stairs are the daily trade-off with any loft. If you’ll carry laundry or groceries up and down often, or steps are hard on your knees, think that through before you pick this plan.
The heating and cooling uses ductless mini-split units with indoor units in the great room and bedrooms. Separate units let you set temperatures by area, which many people appreciate in a two-story layout. Ask Amish Built Cabins how the bathrooms are heated and cooled, since the builder only names units in the great room and bedrooms.
Foundation, Delivery and Local Building Rules
Amish Built Cabins says the modular cabin is designed to residential codes for your state and local area, and that final engineering, permits and inspections depend on where it’s installed. The builder says the home is delivered to your property and set on an approved, prepared foundation. Amish modular cabins are offered in the contiguous 48 states, and Alaska and Hawaii are not included for this model.
Before you order, check your local zoning and permit rules with the building office where the cabin will sit. Ask early what foundation types are allowed, whether your site needs a crane, and who handles utility hookups, since the builder says electrical and plumbing are prepared for on-site connections.
Is the Chattanooga Cabin Right for You?
This cabin suits people who want a two-story feel, a big front porch and two bedrooms without a sprawling floor plan. It’s a weaker pick if you need a ground-floor-only home, want three bedrooms at the quoted price, or live outside the contiguous 48 states. The warranties are limited, so read the written terms closely.
Before anything else, ask Amish Built Cabins for a full written quote to your address that includes delivery, foundation, crane work and utility hookups. The $199,900 figure won’t show you what it costs to get this cabin standing on your land.
