Single Wide Mobile Homes
What makes them
"single"
Single Wide Mobile Homes are very common and an
inexpensive option for a lot of people. The best thing about
them is their low cost, but they are also plenty big.
The "single" refers to a single section of the
home. These homes are built almost completely in the factory
and transported as a complete unit. They are built on a
single trailer chassis. Very little assembly is required and
final set up is very quick.
Most
new single wide Mobile or Manufactured Homes are two bedrooms and two
baths, so for a
single person or a couple, this is ususally the best option.

These types of Mobile Homes usually are 10 feet to
16
feet wide.
Some have what is called a push out, this is a
section that slides out or is added on after installation.
This will increase the size of the living area.

When an addition or a push out is used, the over
all living area becomes much larger.
These types of Mobile Homes can range in quality,
age, and size much of the time. Some single wides have only
one bedroom and one bathroom. Also, financing can be a little
more tricky with a single wide home.
Size and dimensions
A normal dimension for a single wide mobile home
is as follows:
12 feet, 14
feet, and 16 feet wide
42 feet to 60
feet long
So the typical area inside is 540 sqft to 960
sqft. This is with out any push outs or additions, and does
not include any awings, porches, stairs, decks, sheds, etc. By Will
