It is a modular because now mobile homes are called manufactured homes. I didn't realize the names had changed. I don't know who built this one but am asking around; more as I find out.

When built in a factory, there are no weather elements to contend with so the frame doesn't get wet from rain or snow. That means there's no expansion and the 4 pieces fit together perfectly. It's been a real delight to live in this house.Sandra @ Thistle Cove Farmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07701035005375401061noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13163430.post-55431149304559732452018-01-16T21:17:30.029-05:002018-01-16T21:17:30.029-05:00Dori, thank you!

I'd never heard of a modular house on more than one level - Our family of four-growing-to-seven lived in a modular house for 13 years, but not so well-made or substantial as yours, methinks. It's wonderful to feel your joy, His joy.
