Blanco County Texas USA – MA Modular
Built area: 129 m2 + deck of 52 m2 (1,393 sq ft + deck of 560 sq ft)
When we did a recent feature on modular and prefabricated housing, member Lynn Dufour commented: “Pre-fabs have come a LONG way since I was part of the crew building em for Continental Homes back in the early 80’s”. Have our attitudes and views come a long way too? A modular home offers many benefits but perhaps the most important are locked down costs. MA Modular say it well by stating what is NOT in their price:
- The property
- The cost to bring sewer, water or electric to the property, if it isn’t there already
- Decks, driveways, landscaping, fencing
- Some green options such as solar arrays, tankless hot water heaters, rain water harvesting
The home featured here further debunks the ‘it’s just a trailer home by another name’ theory. These are solid, high quality homes that have the potential to be better constructed than homes built on-site. All this particular home needs externally to make it ‘homely’ is a few shrubs and simple landscaping to soften the lines. Internally, it shines.
