Prefab homes made from pre-designed modules are an ideal solution for homeowners who don’t want to endure the months-long process of building a new house on an old ground, which often forces them to temporarily move elsewhere.
The unique house is combined by 5 separate modules
Prefabricated Country Home is composed of five prefabricated custom modules with each module measuring more than 15m in length. All these modules are pre-engineered with exterior insulation, windows and floors. These modules are then shipped and assembled in a relatively short time. Thanks to that, the family can shorten the construction time and fully enjoy the weather and beautiful scenery where they live in the old house without having to move.
Who would have thought that this huge house is made up of 5 separate modular blocks
Externally, these modules are designed with plywood boards and painted in two main colors, black and orange brown. These colors are extremely in harmony with the natural colors of the surrounding natural space with thousands of trees.

To take advantage of natural lighting conditions and reduce heating costs for the house in winter, all-glass windows and doors are designed to direct sunlight into the interior. Besides, even indoors, homeowners can still fully capture the natural scenery outside in sight thanks to large glass windows.
The house has a spacious veranda where the family can enjoy the natural surroundings

Prefabricated Country Home is a three-storey house with the ground floor located lower than the main road. The ground floor includes two additional bedrooms and a multi-function room. The first floor is a common space with a living room, kitchen, indoor dining room and outdoor patio. Besides, a small bedroom and a painting and carpentry studio are also designed on the first floor. The top floor is space for the master bedroom and another bedroom.
The house is three stories high with a ground floor leaning against the valley

The house uses mostly local and sustainable materials. In particular, wood is the main material that brings a cozy but also close atmosphere. Wood appears in many surfaces of the house such as floors, ceilings, partitions, stairs, tables and chairs, cabinets. Besides the warm wood brown color, white is popularly used in walls and many home appliances. It can be seen that the interior design style in the house is towards modernity and convenience, so that the living space of the family is extremely airy and clean.

The Prefabricated Country Home is an interesting textured home. Although this direction of house construction is not too popular, it is also a worthwhile option for families who want to save time on repair and relocation.
