3 Amazing Modern PREFAB HOMES With Must See Features
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 9 мар 2022
- There are a lot of players in the prefab or offsite construction industry and a lot of them are building very similar homes. I always get excited when I see a company introducing new designs and today I've got 3 that are extremely cool. They are build by a company called Bonneville Homes who seem to be very skilled at making small changes that make major improvements to the look and function of a home. In this video I look at three homes ranging in size from 704 square feet up to 1,020 square feet each with unique features that set them apart from other homes in the industry. Watch and learn what I like about each and how much they cost!

Roof top deck? Heck yeah! I live in a tiny rural mountain town and can't figure out why more homes don't have these! Come on up for the BBQ, veggie style, of course! Take a look at the view! Add a fun easy to traverse ramp so everyone, grandma and pups, can access the space. Thanks Terry, you are *on top* of the game, as well as the house!
Right! Especially the smaller homes like these! Give us that extra space!
Huge insurance bill. Get some help.
@@barrymitchell7732 Hey Barry! I live in Colorado and there are a myriad of designs that use the rooftop as additional living space. Look up Rooftop Restaurants in Denver. We know how to get the most of a view! If you are offering to help, come on over, we can use all the help we can get!
As D. Wilson said, you are indeed a natural, Kerry. I enjoy watching you, in these times, you calm my spirit. Plus, I hope one day to find a two bedroom, two bath home and if anyone can locate "The One", I'd bet on you presenting it to the world...You, my friend, have found a delightful niche. I passed you along to some friends who like your channel as well! Hoping you ride the wave that brings humanity much needed new housing choices at reasonable prices. Sustainability. And, STYLE!
What a nice message/comment...i hope he sees it. i agree.
Kerry, your video's are so cool, love your sense of humor, very funny, and yet informative. You should do voice overs for PIXAR movies. You are a natural! D. Wilson, Tacoma.
Honestly thanks for running this channel. In my area houses are starting to hit unaffordable and fairly ridiculous prices however, the price of land is still at a reasonable. I have been floundering trying to figure out this manufactured/prefab/modular home thing out as an alternative to conventional home building. The info on your channel has helped a lot and given me a lot of companies to look into.
Thats great to hear! Glad you’re enjoying the videos
They're priced just like reg homes...3b 2b...might as well build one...
Love the modern and the price on these! I’m guessing someone was making you crack up at the end. Love that you left that in
Thanks Kerry! I really like these three homes! So much money but the designs are elegant!
Hi Kerry. I’m another Cary. Spelled a little differently. I really enjoy your RUclips videos. I’m in the process of looking into tiny home and a place to put it on the California coast.
Thanks for sharing, Kerry. You're the man.
These three homes, just WOW!!! 💫
Beautiful home, thank you 😊 be blessed and be safe
Absolutely love these homes. Thanks for sharing.
You’re very welcome 👊🏻
Kerry, You seem to really know your stuff ...and what really IS functional as well as other important factors that makes your vids more valuable and applicable in assessing what is out there ... to those who are watching to learn and choose what's best for their individual home buying needs and criteria. So far i have not seen anyone do quite as good comparisons with such appropriate reasons regarding functionality, durability, use of space and energy efficiency and all kinds of other factors....that we may ourselves fail to think of and consider.
I like this natural series. Just right feeling for my backyard
I like the Bonneville Homes better than any others I've seen.
Great!
I went to the showroom to get the exact pricing and when you add everything up including the finishing inside a Micro Loft was going to cost me $400,000++ CAD. That's way overpriced for the size.
Did you find any other good options for Canada?
Which model was that quote made on?
Wow! Really?
Wtf that sucks!!!
Lol ~$400 a sqft. That’s just stupid for those homes, which could be built onsite traditionally for half that
You do a wonderful job exploring this new area of the housing market, thanks! You are professional, well spoken, intelligent, and really good at what you do, bravo.
Thank you!
Great job explaining everything!🙂👍
Thanks for sharing! All three home examples are surprisingly open and bright. Great design features.
Thanks Kent
Your channel has quickly become my new favorite guilty pleasure 😁
Wow thats awesome! Glad to hear you’re enjoying the videos
@@KerryTarnow thanks Kerry! Like, obviously, I can’t or won’t be buying all these amazing designed models, but I love to speculate…the modern day version of going on Zillow or something lol. Enjoy how you go into the breakdowns. The whole vibe of these videos are just so chill 😎
Your Channel is amazing!! as is your presentation !!!
thank you so much
Thank you Peniel 🙌🏼
Your humor cracks me up! 😆
Beautiful really
-- Thank you, Kerry Tarnow.
Thanks for watching 🙌🏼
Prices weren't as high as I thought they'd be. Wish there was some footage of the bedrooms and bathrooms. They certainly are nicer than 99% of the modular homes I've seen in "communities" around here (Arizona).
Where have you seen modular homes in AZ? All I see is cookie cutter flimsy stick houses with Mediterranean tile roofs and burnt adobe brick homes. I think most of these houses wouldn't last long in the AZ sun.
Where did you find prices?
@@davidaz6622 They are built to code which includes snow load. I don't know why these wouldn't stand up to Arizona weather, they're well insulated with double paned windows.
Best yet, Kerry!
Great to hear 🙌🏼
Kerry!! Great content brother!! Glad to have discovered your channel!! I am a builder/developer on Southwestern Ontario!! These Pre-fabs are friggin awesome!!
Thanks for your efforts !! Greetings from Canada!! GIDDYUP!!
Thanks for watchin!
The glulam beams & wooden celings, the black window mullions, the sheer spaciousness, Bonneville makes a bonny, not-so-wee house.
Kerry Love your presentations but… one thing that bugs me is that you very often do not mention where these manufacturers are located which in the case of modular homes is critical . I would appreciate it if you would always include this information
Keep up the great work
Mark
Thank you! Appreciate the feedback. They're in Quebec.
@@KerryTarnow thank you for sharing where this company is.
It would be very easy to find these companies, you give the name and interested parties can look them up online
Or
It would be a great addition if you link their sites on you channel
I really enjoy your videos. Kudos to you!!
Thanks, great video! I've been poo-poo'ing these pre-fab homes for awhile now, mostly due to cost, but these are the first commercial offerings that appear to be competitively priced and look great.
I stumbled on you and I’m really glad I did. I’m a huge fan of Modular/Pre-fab/Tiny homes. Thank you very much
Very informative
Glad to hear you’re enjoying the vids. Thanks for watching
Micro Nature , great design.
Kerry, your 'pre-fab series' is obviously resonating with viewers. Congrats on your channel's growth. I notice all these 'many windows' plans are illustrated with open countrysides, yet we know it's the (sub)urban lot footprint where they will be placed. The good news: A small home footprint allows for true landscaping creativity as part of the project.
I beg to differ about the locations these would be placed. Most suburbs in the USA, at least, would ban any prefab smaller home six ways to Sunday. It'd be too small, wrong type of foundation, not enough lot coverage, doesn't meet seismic or insulation or fire codes... the list could go on. The only place you can legally build most tiny/prefab homes is in trailer parks or on rural land where building/zoning codes are lax or not enforced. That makes the rural images more realistic.
@@michigandersea3485 depends on the city. Many encourage density on property to allow for affordable housing.
Very informative thanks !!
Thanks for watching 🙌🏼
Ah, yes-the Micro Nature with the rooftop deck. All three are beautiful. I would live in any one of these, happily.
Thanks for watching 🙌🏼
These are amazing! Some of my favorite designs I’ve seen on your channel. Cost of lumber is insane right now
Glad to hear it! Yeah it's nuts
Micro Nature looks like a Restaurant 😶
Very good for restaurants and Cafes near the beach 👍
Very, very nice Kerry!
Thank you 🙌🏼
Congrats on 50k my guy
Thank you (Michael Scott gif)
I get stoned and watch these updates and I think Kerry is really funny and doing a great job.
Haha thats awesome
you find some of the most amazing things...
Kerry…I with you on the roof top deck
This is exciting news! Prefabs available in North America! 🎉 Thanks Kerry for your dedication and hard work bringing exciting designs to our attention. Thank you!
You are so welcome!
Very nice, similar to what we do.
Yeah, the rooftop deck is where it's at! Would be awesome down on the Florida coast, or the inter-coastal.
100% agree ☀️
Hi, newie Subie here 🤗🤗🤗and absolutely LOVE ROOFTOP DECKS, too! 💯Been binge watching your fabulous content all evening 🌆 thanks, awesome job!!!👍🏽
Glad to hear you’re enjoying the videos 🙌🏼
Yes ! Love This style and reasonably high end ! Can you make a model as good as Spain’s TINI. Bring the price down whoo hoo ! I’d buy it. Hay doesn’t hurt to ask !!!!! Craig. Thanks Kari. Thumbs up !
Yes, having lived in the North and thinking about moving back to build a prefab, I'm also concerned about the snow load, which conservatively can be as much as four feet! Please respond Kerry, if you see this. In any case, thanks for all the good info you post.
Love your channel.
Back in the day the old farm houses in Illinois had what we called "salt box" roofs.
😊
Similar in style and the snow slid off the back side.
"Nothing new under the sun."
Interesting! thanks for sharing and glad you're enjoying the channel
I'm from central Illinois and there weren't any salt boxes that I can recall in the rural area where I grew up. I'd say foursquares and mid century ranch houses along with old farmer-built gable roof houses were the norm. I think saltboxes are more a New England thing.
My concern with flat roofs is snow loads and water drainage.
They ain't 100% flat. It has a small angle 2 to 3 deg to it from the top. Water drainage is not an issue. I live in a flat roof house. We don't get snow though.
me too!
Christie Gingles....oh i just asked about that above...and now see your comment about this AND ....someone below YOUR comment but above mine here in this thread....says flat roofs are not an issue but i remembered that some builder said it is an issue for those reasons you give if i remember correctly AND in at least one other video if not more the owner had to get on her roof (by ladder) to actually remove snow that had accumulated a few feet high and even froze and was causing leakage and roof damage too. (tho it was a much older small home) . So i guess that IS a valid concern and i wonder how much?? and if way more so in north west or north east regions (of U.S.)?
2&2 ALWAYS‼️👍🥳
I LOVE 💕 these homes. Are the windows double pane glass?
Very informative video and I love your channel
Thank you so much 🙂
Your videos inspired me to consider buying a modern prefab home in 2023. Bonneville Homes seem to offer great styles, but they are in Canada. Would love to see education videos about similar options in my neighborhood (New York/New Jersey).
Will see what I can find 🙌🏼
Since you are super knowledgeable in these prefab tiny homes. I would love to see a comparison chart of them all! Comparing price, design, ease of use, square feet and number of beds/baths. Do you have anything like that? Since they have so many different models in each company, maybe a chart just comparing 1 bedrooms and another chart comparing 2 bedrooms. That would be fab!
I love the boneville!
same here
awesome!!!
Roof top deck is one feature I want in a smaller home.
I agree with you. Micro-Nature all the way. Rooftop decks are awesome. Oh... I just subscribed. Stay awesome. ; )
Beautiful models. The all window sheik shack might be a bit too hot in Arizona or too cold in 4 season states. Beautiful model tho. I love your Chanel. Small houses are the future. 👍👍👍👍
Loved all 3 homes but one thing I did not see in the video or floor plans was laundry facilities whether it be stacked in a closet or laundry room---I could be happy living anyone of them---Beautiful
Nice 😎👍🏻👏👏
SO SHWEEEETTT...much love Tee with LIONS NAMED LEO.[the music worldwide}
AND SOOOO COOL.!!!!!!!
Thank you 🙏🏻
I want the bedrooms at separate ends of the home with kitchen and livingroom in the middle and giving privacy to everyone.
I like that set up best too 👊🏻
Roof top!!!😁
Kerry TY for your informative videos. I am looking for high end good quality >5,000 sq feet. Time is the issue for me, although, I have not purchased the land yet. I do prefer low volatile outgassing. I need something to withstand real winter snow
Maison Bonneville models their site were amazing, They did even show fireplaces. Quel domage ( sadly) that they no longer deliver to the US. They were friendly , helpful and spoke perfect English.
Open to your suggestions. I also may be needing prefab office space , in addition to homes . Got big projects!
Maybe already stated, but these larger and rather expensive homes really need a master and common bath.
I am buying a lot of land and this is exactly what I am for to live in. Thank you for this helpful video.
No problem! Thanks for watching
Hi Kerry, love your channel! Are the Bonneville homes available to purchase in the US? We saw you added the cost for the US
Interesting homes. I am ambivalent about all the windows and privacy. In addition, the cost for window treatments can run thousand of dollars. In both two-bedroom homes, the secondary bedroom seemed quite small. Thank you, again, for continuing to educate us on the possibilities.
You aren’t joking about window treatments🤑💰
Garage choices would be nice with these prefab homes
Thank you Kerry. Love these designs. Do any of the models on these homes come on wheels or do they have to be transported by companies if you choose to move locations?
I would assume any of these pre-fab builders have contracts with shippers to the regions they service. If it isn't included in the total price, it could add a chunk to the overall house budget.
Roof top deck All The Way!!!
100%
Wow. These look like Scandinavian modern homes that sell for twice the price.
Hey Kerry, really enjoy watching your channel, any chance you could look in to homes available in Australia?
I’ll see what I can find!
Thanks for showing us all the latest. I'm aware that cities don't like pre fab/modular homes. County areas, sometimes, and way out in the country may be even better. Not sure about infrastructure and it's cost, and I'm sure there's no "parks" yet for these gorgeous homes. The price isn't bad for what you get, but by the time you get a property, and meet the requirements of the jurisdiction, it could be some tough news. Any way you've been hearing from anyone who's gone through the process and has experience enough to tell us the real story. I'm sure the manufacturer could get the info. Might be interesting. They are really beautiful.
Way out of line for size!
Rooftop is the best!!!!
I think it would be such a great space to have!
Any of these homes is gorgeous! I love the wood ceiling and all the windows and clean lines. I'm wondering if you can get a second bathroom added to go along with the second bedroom. I assume these are modular homes, and I'm not sure about the financing options. I guess if you have to ask you can't afford it! 😂
I’m new to this channel and like the modern architecture flat roofs but what about snow load?
Love the first two 😍 last one is ok 👍🏾 I’d never use the rooftop deck 😵💫 I’m afraid of heights 🙈
haha fair enough! lots of designs to keep you ground level
Chic Chac 👍
Rooftop decks: think about Spain. Many houses do this there. Some cover the space in blankets.
Hi Kerry, I new here but I love your work . I’m seriously interested in this homes but they’re thing I’d like to know, durability, maintenance alerts, insurability , resistance to climate change ( …hurricanes ) comparing them with regular constructions.
No sloping roofline also means not good for areas that get moderate or more snow.
They're built for it. Many new modern home designs are flat roof. They are engineered with this in mind. We get several feet of snow here and recently it seems 50%+ are modern flat roof.
@@junehodsdon8037 - That’s what the people with collapsed roofs said their sales people said too.
Hey Kerry thanks for another cool video. Is on site assembly included in these prices or how does that work? Thanks.
How wide is this it looks lovely
Getting closer and closer to the amenities I’m looking for. I’d like a combination of the Zoo Box cabins from Le Vertrande and few others I’ve seen. I’m looking for a walk in pantry behind the kitchen row in the center of the home with a loft on top of it where I can grow food. And attached garage. The roof top access for solar panels, food grow and satellite. Built on above a deck with access underneath for any future repairs to all plumbing, electrical etc and storage for snowmobiles and a 4X4. An enclosed mud porch area where laundry can be done. And a green house. Yup, I know it’s a lot.
Was very excited about this company. Unfortunately, they do not service the U.S. market.
Rooftop deck!!! Very corbusier
Rooftop deck wins!
These are beautiful for a view which is what I'm looking for. And I've noticed the coat closet issue in most manufactured and modular homes. These are on the pricey side, but the design and finishes and space are worth it. My one concern is heating and cooling with the large windows. It looks like most of them can't be opened. Great in the winter for passive solar heat. Horrible in the summer. And possibly horrible on winter nights unless they're triple pane argon filled. Any more info about their energy profile?
Why do you need a closet. Hang your coat on the wall hangers.
@@Z-add I like to keep them put away out of sight and on hangers so they don't stretch. Also like to store a vacuum and broom in there. I've had one in every home I've owned and wouldn't want to give that up.
How are they heated and cooled?
I just discovered your website your RUclips channel but I want to ask you one thing when you get the name of the home on the screen could you make it big enough so you could actually see it it's got to be in like 6-point font. Needs to be big it needs to fill up the whole scream. Like to be able to see the name clearly and effortlessly thank you
I like the look of all those windows, letting in all that light, but is it practical considering the heat
I guess depends on location…
I have a huge lot w the original Wexler s and Alexander’s in 92262. Psp California. Can they deliver that south. ..?????
Thank you for researching these homes and putting out good content. It is appreciated... Wow, these are expensive. I live outside the DC area - not an inexpensive area to live in let's just say, and my house is valued at about 900k and it sits on acre of land (so, land included in this value) and similar houses are available in this price range now. The house is 5700 sq/ft (including finished basement, which I am including just to compare sq/ft price). The house in the video is 175-250k - so let's say 200k, which comes out to 250/sq/ft. with no land or foundation. So, right now it's vastly less expensive in my area to hire someone to build a house (or ADU) than pay this company - the math just doesn't seem to work out unless I am completely missing something. Also, the finishes in this 250/sq/ft home are not high end, and I kind of would expect them to be. I know why people are lining up for the boxabl pre-fabs as they are just over 100/sq/ft. I have my doubts that boxabl's will stay at this price... We will see. Not trying to be a hater, I am just trying to understand as I am researching for a ADU in my back yard for Mom... Fun!

🙌🏼🙌🏼
If you bought land, contracted out a well drilling entrepreneur to drill the well, install the water pumps, and septic tanks with weeping beds built to code, used exterior photovoltaic construction materials competitively priced with conventional finishing envelopes for maximum solar capture in lithium battery systems sufficient to provide energy for your homes, you would sell more, plus if you include a land value added to set the home upon, purchasers can pay modular home manufacturers for affordable net zero homes instead of the banks, or the real estate companies driving up costs. The sheer volume of sales would enable you to profit, just like the automotive industry does, financing their own sales:)
I live in the USA, I reached out to Loftypods after watching your review on them but I got no reply.
Most of these companies are in Canada & may not serve the states.
Still great job I love the channel 👍
Many shown on this channel are also located overseas, so the shipping costs are prohibitive too.
These are pretty awesome homes. I much prefer the bathroom layout in the two bed floorplan. I'm mean have they not seen how dirty some people's showers are. I would never design a bathroom where you are confronted with a shower belonging to someone adverse to using a squeegee. Not to mention those who collect bottles of soap, shampoo, shave gel, and face washes. I've seen some real messes in my day. While most snoop in the medicine cabinet before introducing themselves to the owner they somehow ended up with the previous night, I look at their shower. A dirty shower tells me I need to know; requiring me to pull out of my favorite excuses to facilitate my rapid departure in advance of being asked to stay for breakfast.
Flip the shower and W/D-water tank. Have the bifold doors in the hallway with a pocket door going into the shorted bathroom. This would create a nice wide area in the hallway making the space feel much larger than it is. This newly minted voluminous space now doubles as a disco for 2.
You are killing me with your extra dry (martini) humor. Keep it up dude! 👍
Cheers!
I’m wondering about the heating and cooling efficiency with all the glass? Are the recommendations that these be in a wooded or heavily treed area or where?
Yes, they better darn well have super efficient paneling... I don't know why they aren't putting passive solar glass in them as well, so it all adds to the efficiency of the home.
