Our New Modular Manufactured Homes

Our modular homes are made from traditional materials, but we are also offering container homes. A U-shaped container home is in the works. These plans show a 10’ wide exterior on all three units that comprise this U-shaped modular home. We have decided to go with a much wider 14’ outer width for approx 1050 sq feet of interior living space plus a huge deck that could be enclosed if desired.

Some possible modular configurations

This diagram above shows some possible configurations using modular home structures. The ‘C” structure is comprised of two structures both with one open end that are joined together on site to make a structure that can be as wide as approx 26’. The decks on some configurations can be enclosed and thus counted as living area. More affordable retractable awnings make an attractive and functional addition to deck areas not enclosed.

Details on our modular structures

Our modular homes that are made from conventional materials will be built off-site and trucked in. Our homes are built to last 70 years or more. No particle board is used anywhere. Hi-tech elastomeric waterproof coating with ceramic-titanium crystals is used on roof and entire exterior to reflect heat for a much cooler interior temperature, and for superior protection from water and moisture damage.

Solid bamboo or other hardwood flooring will be used throughout entire home, and not laminate flooring unless customer wants it. We want our homes to really last and offer superb value. Walls finished with either hardwood veneer ply, drywall or bamboo sheets, with an option for wallpaper on either the entire wall areas, or just the upper half of the interior walls. We are designing optional movable interior walls on some models, giving one the ability to reconfigure their floor plan to some extent if desired.

Roof options include low cost metal roofing, with or without heat reducing coating. All designs will incorporate custom brackets to hold photovoltaic panels (PV panels), satellite dishes, solar hot water systems, etc. The PV systems are optional and custom designed for your needs. Ventilating skylights will used throughout, see roof plan above.

There will be options in the kitchen, but particle board cabinets will definitely not be an option. Some value rich counter top options include laminate on plywood, trimmed with hard wood and featuring granite or marble on the back splash pieces. Higher cost options are of course also available, but our aim is affordable, with intelligent design and lots of value.

We will offer septic system options such as flushing composting toilets with a gray water processing system, and also traditional septic systems using low volume toilets. Water catchment systems will also be an option, with the homes being designed to catch water.

You must see what Bob Vila did in Florida building incredible homes with shipping containers for those Katrina ravaged Floridians. Go to chapter 4 if you don’t have the time to take in the entire video. We recommend viewing the entire video if you can. We are currently negotiating with a client to build him a 2000 + sq foot home similar to the one Bob Vila built in the video. We will keep you informed about this very exciting project.
