With Southampton\u2019s median home-sale price hovering around $1.7 million, the hunt was hard.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But then they found it: a 700-square-foot, two-bedroom mobile home in Suffolk Pines Mobile Home Park, listed for just $185,000.

Together, they gutted and rebuilt much of the trailer themselves, installing floors and windows, adding crown molding and shiplap ceilings and slowly turning the once-dated mobile home into what Jayne calls a \u201cretro surf shack.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cPeople make fun of me on TikTok for adding crown molding to a trailer,\u201d Jayne said. \u201cBut when you\u2019re inside, you genuinely forget it\u2019s a trailer.
