When I grew up (1970s) I had 2 friends had very very similar houses in a town outside boston. They were similar to my dentist too, who had his office attached to his house. They all lived miles apart. They were a 60's prefab house called a "deck" house. My dad ended up buying one later with a large addition once my parents split. They were pretty good, except the roofs which weren't great for snow (pitch) and lacked insulation. I helped replace one of those roofs and the lack of pitch made it easier to work on. (friends father was a civil engineer). Pretty well made, considering, and the open layouts were pretty great. prefab is around, just a niche. A check of google, "deck" company still exist as a branch of a larger prefab house company: https://www.deckhouse.com/brand/deck-house/ https://www.deckhouse.com/brand/deck-house/ photos of one: http://modernmass.com/concord-deck-house/ http://modernmass.com/concord-deck-house/
