Transform a stock design into a personalized home built for your lifestyle.

For a long time, buying a manufactured or modular home meant choosing a standard floor plan off a lot and settling for whatever finishes came with it. If you wanted custom kitchen cabinets, energy-efficient upgrades, or a floor plan tailored to your family's unique routine, your only choice was expensive traditional site-built construction.


Those days are officially over.


Today’s modern manufactured and modular homes offer a level of design flexibility, style, and structural quality that rivals—and often exceeds—traditional stick-built housing. When you partner with Jaco Sales, you aren't just buying a place to live; you are actively designing a sanctuary for your family. Serving Central Alabama homeowners for years, our team helps turn basic factory layouts into fully personalized, high-performance homes tailored to your lifestyle and budget.


Let’s take a look at the custom options available through Jaco Sales and see how easy it is to bring your dream home to life.


1. Flexible Floor Plans Tailored to Your Family's Lifestyle


Every family functions differently. A young couple starting out might want an open-concept living area with a large central island for entertaining. A growing family might need a dedicated nursery right next to the primary suite, while multigenerational households often require dual primary suites or separate quiet zones.


At Jaco Sales, customization begins with the layout itself.


  • Open-Concept Living vs. Traditional Zones: Choose between wide-open kitchen-dining-living combinations that make small footprints feel massive, or defined rooms that offer quiet and privacy.


  • Flexible Room Configurations: Need a dedicated home office, a children’s playroom, or an outdoor-accessible mudroom for muddy boots? Many of our home lines allow you to convert standard bedrooms or flex spaces into functional work or storage areas.


  • Primary Suite Luxury: Customize your primary bathroom with double vanities, deep soaking tubs, walk-in tile showers, and expansive walk-in closets.


Instead of forcing your family to fit into a pre-designed box, we help you select and modify a layout that matches how you live every single day.


2. High-End Interior Finishes and Fixtures


One of the biggest surprises for first-time manufactured home buyers is the quality of modern interior finishes. Gone are the flimsy vinyl wall coverings and lightweight plastic fixtures of the past. Today, you can select premium materials that look and feel luxurious.


1.Cabinetry & Countertops: The Heart of the Home.

Choose real wood cabinetry with soft-close hinges, quartz or granite-look laminate countertops, and deep farmhouse kitchen sinks with modern pull-down faucets.


2.Flooring Options: Durability Meets Style.

Select heavy-duty luxury vinyl plank (LVP) flooring for high-traffic living areas and kitchens, combined with plush carpet options in the bedrooms for comfort.


3.Lighting & Architectural Accents: Setting the Mood.

Add architectural character with recessed LED lighting, decorative pendant lights over kitchen islands, accent barn doors, tray ceilings, and built-in entertainment centers.


3. Lowering Bills with Energy-Efficient Upgrades


Central Alabama summers are famous for intense heat and high humidity, which means cooling costs can quickly eat into a household budget. Customizing your home's thermal efficiency during the ordering process is one of the smartest financial investments you can make.

At Jaco Sales, we offer factory-installed energy-efficiency upgrades that keep your indoor climate comfortable while driving down monthly utility bills:


  • Low-E Insulated Windows: Dual-pane, Low-Emissivity (Low-E) glass reflects solar heat away from your home in the summer and holds warmth indoors during mild winter cold snaps.
  • Upgraded Insulation Packages: Increase the R-value in your ceilings, walls, and floors to seal your home tightly against humidity and drafty air leaks.
  • High-Efficiency HVAC Systems: Pair your home with modern, high-SEER air conditioning units and heat pumps designed specifically to handle Southern humidity without running constantly.
  • ENERGY STAR® Certified Models: Choose models built to strict federal energy guidelines, ensuring long-term utility savings and better overall resale value.


4. Exterior Curb Appeal and Modular Additions


Customization doesn't stop at the front door. The exterior of your home is your statement to the neighborhood, and Jaco Sales gives you the freedom to build impressive curb appeal.


  • Siding Styles and Color Palettes: Select durable lap siding, architectural board-and-batten accents, and modern color combinations ranging from classic whites and warm grays to deep navy tones.
  • Porches and Decks: Add a spacious front porch for relaxing afternoons, a covered rear deck for weekend grilling, or an enclosed patio space.
  • Rooflines and Gables: Enhance the architectural profile of your home with steeper roof pitches, dormers, and decorative gable accents that give your manufactured home a traditional custom-built look.


For buyers who need even more space down the road, modular home designs allow for seamless additions like attached garages, carports, or outdoor storage sheds.|
