GRAND SOJOURNER              Starting price $110,000

To ‘sojourn’ means to rest, abide, dwell or stay. It’s about having a break from the journey, to be refreshed. There is an element of temporariness to it which we feel is captured by the relocatable nature of our homes. You can stop awhile, & move on in your own time, taking your resting place with you.

FAMILY HOME - Set up for a high standard of living with all the mod cons, you could live comfortably in the Grand Sojourner with the whole family full time or part time, enjoying the flexibility of relocation when needed. Focus on what’s important, deepen your family relationships by not escaping to separate corners of the house but by doing life together.

DOWNSIZING OR RETIREMENT - As you get older, it’s nice to simplify life and you just don’t want to spend your time maintaining a large house. With the Grand Sojourner you don’t have to climb loft ladders but have a generous downstairs bedroom, with lofts available for guests. With a murphy bed option to create space for craft/reading/hobby desk you can pursue the things you love & with full relocatability you can park in your kid’s backyard, move somewhere else when it’s time & enjoy a high level of flexibility. You’ve also got ample storage space.

FAMILY OR GUEST ACCOMMODATION - With no DA council approval needed to park it behind your house for a member of your household, you can simply drive you Sojourner Tiny House into your backyard and have a new, self-contained accommodation space ready to use.
