Introducing the BaseStation 400: A Home Born for Vermonters
This is not a scaled-down version of a house. This is a right-sized home for a new kind of Vermont life. The BaseStation 400 is a 440-square-foot, one-bedroom unit—precision-built, road-deliverable, and designed to live in, not just exist in. It’s the kind of place where you can watch the seasons change through thoughtfully placed windows, cook real meals in a real kitchen, and come home from work without feeling like you're compromising. It’s not just affordable—it’s intentional. Strong. Efficient. Rooted. A structure that reflects the way many Vermonters already live—with care, with resourcefulness, and with a quiet insistence on dignity. This home isn't just "an option," it’s a response. To cost. To climate. To belonging. To the deep Vermont ethic of making do, but doing it well.
We’ve listened. To the young Vermonters trying to stay close to home but priced out of their own communities. To parents looking for a place their adult children can land safely and affordably. To those working full time—teaching, nursing, plowing, building—who can’t find housing near the towns they serve. To landowners hoping to add a small, beautiful place that doesn’t wreck the landscape or take years to permit. The BaseStation 400 was shaped by these stories. Not to solve everything, but to offer something solid. Livable. Attainable. A home that meets the moment, without losing sight of what makes Vermont feel like home in the first place.
The very first BaseStation 400 is nearing completion and will be ready for delivery this July. It’s available now for $135,000. And it’s not the only one—we’re currently taking orders for five to six additional units that can be delivered before the end of the year. If you’re ready to live closer to what matters—or help someone you care about do the same—visit satelliteinorbit.com for details, floor plans, and next steps. This isn’t just a small house. It’s a home built to hold your quiet hours, your full days, your need for something solid. It’s a structure that respects the life you’re building and gives you the grounding to live it well.
