At Clayton, we are dedicated to creating innovative prefabricated home designs and models every year. In fact, after entering in their annual contest in 2018, we were named the Manufacturer of the Year by the Manufactured Housing Institute (MHI). In addition to receiving this honor, we were also entered and won a MHI 2018 National Design Award. However, this isn’t the first year we have been recognized for our design, building and sales efforts. In 2017, we also received multiple design awards.
Richard Jennsion, MHI President & CEO, had this to say about the awards: “through hard work and determination, these award winners are leading the way in providing outstanding products, customer service, creative solutions and state-of-the-art homes for today’s homebuyers.”1
These awards are a prestigious recognition of how we strive to bring beautiful, quality homes to our customers, because we believe that having an affordable home shouldn’t mean sacrificing the features and designs you desire.

2017 Award – New Single-Section Manufactured Home Design Balboa Island Series Cedar Ridge by Clayton Sacramento
Built by our Clayton Sacramento home building facility in conjunction with hybridCore™ Homes*, this 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom home design truly is one of a kind. Using a process coined by hybridCore™ Homes that joins conventional construction with prefabricated building techniques, the Cedar Ridge home model has a pleasant kitchen with a breakfast bar, despite being less than 1,000 sq. ft. With 9 ft. ceilings throughout the home, a recessed tray in the master bedroom and classy cabinetry in the kitchen, there’s not much more style that could be added to this charming manufactured home interior design.1
