Is a three unit Hivehaus for \u00a355,000 with optional extensions the solution to all first-time buyer problems?<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Guardian<\/a> spoke to Barry Jackson about his unique idea to create an alternative form of housing. Born out of the want to build himself a \u201cman cave\u201d for his drum set and camera equipment, the 52-year-old builder came up with the honeycomb design that could revolutionise the lower range of the property market. <\/p>\n

It took Barry, who built his idea in his backyard just outside Wigan, three years to complete his Hivehaus. Each hexagonal room offers 100 square feet of space and can be customised. The \u201cHexa Home\u201d can be erected in four to five days by three builders, needs no foundation and can be used as a study, garden room, gym or even mobile home. <\/p>\n
