The versatility, elegance, and cost-effectiveness of ranch homes has made them one of America’s most popular home styles since the mid-20th century. The ranch home, defined by its single-story, long horizontal design, large windows, gentle roof pitch, and spacious interior, isn’t just iconic—it’s also still a uniquely efficient and appealing design with lots of great examples on the market today.
Ranch style modular homes have become particularly popular as homebuyers explore the many benefits of modular housing. These six ranch style modular homes are outstanding examples of the high-quality building and aesthetic excellence that buyers have come to associate with factory-built homes.

The Prescott is available in both two- and three-bedroom designs. The two-bedroom Prescott (shown above) includes two full-sized master bed and bath suites, while the three-bedroom model offers a third room that makes this home a great choice for families or anyone who wants a little extra space for hosting guests.
2. Clayton Homes Bordeaux

In the living room, you’ll find more of the Bordeaux’s signature architectural charm, with wooden beam accents on the ceiling and a built-in entertainment center using a distinctive archway style.
