Custom Modular Homes
Beautiful, energy-efficient homes built to your specifications with superior quality and faster build times.
Custom Modular Homes
Modern modular homes come in various styles and layouts, from classic New England designs to sleek contemporary builds. Some of our common modular home styles include one-story ranches, Cape Cods with steep-pitched roofs, two-story colonials, and even chalet-style homes for snowy climates.
While these are popular New England styles, Newport Modular Homes can build any architectural style. Our certified manufacturers offer extensive customization options—homebuyers can choose from standard floor plans or work with designers to create a unique layout.
Custom modular homes can be tailored to personal preferences, often featuring open-concept interiors, large kitchens, and other modern design elements. Far from the uninspired prefabs of the past, today's modular construction can produce cutting-edge designs. Even expansive luxury homes and ultra-modern glass-walled designs are possible with modular building techniques.
The modular construction process also offers significant environmental benefits. Factory precision means less material waste, reduced site disturbance, and improved energy efficiency. Many of our homes exceed energy code requirements, resulting in lower utility bills and a smaller carbon footprint for homeowners.

For many first-time homebuyers, the big question is whether to buy an existing home or build something new. While buying might seem like the faster option, choosing a custom modular home means you get exactly what you want—without the long wait of traditional construction.

"We loved working with Paul and overall had a great experience. We were able to subvert very high costs by going with modular construction with a reputable company; Paul oversaw the delivery and all of the finished work of the property. We would definitely work with Paul again if the opportunity allows."

- Construction time dependent on weather and scheduling
- More material waste and variable quality control
- Materials exposed to weather during construction
- Inspections only at key phases of construction
