10 Really Cool Quonset Homes

In this poor housing market, quonset homes are popular with new homeowners as well as for retirees looking for an affordable way to move to a warmer climate. A quonset hut is an arch-style steel building that was used in World War II for equipment storage. Since then, quonset huts have been used as a less expensive metal building for equipment storage in commercial and agricultural settings. In today’s housing market, quonset hut homes are a popular option mainly because they’re less expensive to build or buy than other types of homes, and can be erected in less time.
