We love it when we come across remodels like this 1974 manufactured home. Full of upgrades, this home has all the designer qualities that make this home fit for the cover of a magazine. Listed and sold for $239,000 in a 55+ community in California, we think you will appreciate this transformation as much as we do!

High-End Designer Interior

There’s little doubt that the interior of this 1974 manufactured home was taken down to the studs and completely remade. The upgrades include:

  • Quartz Counters and Large Center Island
  • Tiled Walk-in Shower with a Double Sink Quartz Counter Vanity
  • Large walk-in closet in the master bedroom and in the bath
  • Double Barn Doors leading to Master Bath and Walk-in Closet
  • Guest Bath with Beautiful Soaking Tub and Quartz Counter Vanity
  • New paint in the interior and the exterior
  • Recessed lighting
  • Water-resistant flooring throughout
  • Plus new plumbing, new roof, new electrical, and even new windows (double-pane and energy efficient)

The owners were able to take what was once a typical 70s manufactured home and update it into something brand new rather than tear it down and replace it.

    Thanks for this inspiration! We have a 79 double wide that needs rehab and wondering if it is worth it to fix up. I’m feeling more positive about it after reading your article.
