The 2024 Manufactured Home Design Multi-Section award was given to Oak Creek Homes – The Swan.

The Swan, their largest multi-section home in the Smart Cottage Series, is long, slender, and elegant, just as its name implies. Smarter in design, function, energy efficiency, and pricing than a tiny home, yet still comfortable and compact.

The Swan L52EP8 can be built as a manufactured or modular home and can even be placed on piers for coastal applications, making it versatile! The Swan can fit anywhere – in the city, country, a community, or along the lake or beach! See pictures, the floorplan, and take a Matterport tour here.

The Swan is a popular choice for those seeking an affordable, quality-built home without breaking the bank. Its unique exterior design is a showstopper and blends effortlessly with streets lined with million dollar homes. The Swan comes with a variety of décor choices for cabinets, flooring, tile, and interior and exterior paint. Plus, you can choose one porch or two, with the option of a black, white, or galvalume metal railing. The Swan porch also comes with TREX® decking in either grey or brown. Metal roof choices include galvalume, black, green, or metallic copper.
