The man claims to be an "anomaly" with not many possessions, so the cramped living conditions suit him.
Narrating during his tour, the man says: "It pretty much holds all my possessions. I don't own that much, so I'm probably an anomaly."
He added: "It's a little small and is probably not for people who are a little claustrophobic.
"But what I kind of really enjoy about it is that I'm now paying about $508 a month in rent, and that's after considering the cost of construction, so for me it really has been working out."
It is not made clear in the video where the man is living, but he has a strong American accent.
