Swedish furniture giants Ikea have launched a line of flat-pack, do it yourself houses in the U.S.

The one-bedroom prefabricated residences, named the Aktiv, will retail for around $86,500 and will be marketed to people who find home ownership too costly.

The modular homes, which debuted at Oregon's Home and Garden Expo earlier this month, are co-designed with architectural firm Ideabox.
