Discover the EASIEST Way to Find Your Dream Family Home

The Clayton Hey Jude is one of the strongest family floor plans on display at The Home Boys, combining big-house livability with Tempo Series value. Built at the Marlette factory in Hermiston, Oregon, this 1,920 sq. ft., four-bedroom, two-bath manufactured home is designed for growing households that want open living space, Energy Star performance, and room to expand into a fifth bedroom when life demands it.

From the curb, Hey Jude looks much closer to a new ranch-style site-built home than a classic manufactured. The exterior uses vertical LP Smart Panel siding with 4-inch trim, an integrated belly band, and 8-inch cement fascia for a clean, framed look. One of the key updates on this model is the 16-inch vented soffits all the way around the home—sidewalls and gables—improving both airflow and appearance. The way The Home Boys displays this home, it’s pit-set with minimal exposed skirting and a drylock finish that reads like concrete from the street, which is exactly how many buyers want their manufactured home to sit on the property.

The front elevation features a decorative gable, accent paint, and Craftsman-style entry door with six-light glass, thumb-latch handle, and deadbolt. A site-built front deck with railing shows how easily the Hey Jude can accept a full-width porch with space for furniture and everyday entry. Additional exterior doors are available at the side and rear: one optional nine-panel side entry that can be swapped for a window if preferred, and a rear kitchen entry that works perfectly with future patios, garages, or utility access. As with all Tempo Series homes, exterior rear doors are paired with lights, hose bibs, dryer vent, and crawlspace access so the home is ready for real-world use, not just show.

Energy efficiency is built into the structure. All windows are Energy Star vinyl units with low-E glass and argon gas, supporting the eBuilt / zero-energy-ready configuration that The Home Boys often orders for display. The Hey Jude on the lot is shown with a high-efficiency heat pump, tied into a Carrier Smart Comfort furnace and hybrid water heater, demonstrating the exact setup many buyers will install. The factory-built crawlspace access door and skirting treatment illustrate how clean and serviceable the finished foundation can be with the right setup package.

Inside, the Hey Jude opens into a bright, generous living area that immediately feels larger than its square footage suggests. At 1,920 sq. ft., this is effectively the “big sister” to the Tempo Rocket Man plan, offering more bedrooms, a flex room, and wider circulation without losing the clean, simple Tempo aesthetic. The main living room is fully LED-lit with 6-inch can lights, wired and braced for a future ceiling fan, and flows directly into the dining area and kitchen.

The kitchen is a standout—good enough to win “Best Kitchen” and “Best Overall” in its price segment at the local Fall Festival of Homes. Clayton’s Tempo Series value structure means you get a lot of standard equipment: Samsung appliance package, painted shaker-style hardwood cabinets, a large eat-up island with seating for at least three, and ample receptacles across all walls and ends. In the Hey Jude model on display, The Home Boys upgraded to a 27 cu. ft. side-by-side Samsung refrigerator with ice and water in the door, and swapped the standard stainless hood for a stainless micro-hood with cabinets above. That new micro-hood option lets buyers combine ventilation and microwave storage without sacrificing upper cabinet space.

A smart new factory option in this plan is the ability to relocate the refrigerator and pantry bank from the current wall to the far end of the kitchen, and open up the rear wall with a sliding glass door. In that configuration, the current side door becomes a window, the dining room gains direct access to a rear deck or patio, and the kitchen/dining space feels even more “great-room” in proportion. Buyers can keep the existing layout with side door and separated dining, add just the slider, or go all-in on the relocated pantry/fridge plus slider—factory engineering keeps the pricing reasonable, with the main upcharge driven by the door itself.

Directly off the kitchen is a large combined utility and mechanical room that doubles as a walk-in pantry. Multiple outlets make it easy to park an upright freezer or second refrigerator, and The Home Boys typically has the factory add a dedicated receptacle for that purpose. The room then transitions into the washer/dryer area and furnace closet. Because this Hey Jude is built as an eBuilt Energy Star home, it includes a hybrid (heat pump) water heater and a Carrier Smart Comfort furnace, with the option to spec electric or gas depending on the property. This is also where the whole-house ventilation system and 200-amp panel live, making service access simple and future upgrades—like hot tubs or additional outdoor circuits—straightforward.

The primary suite sits at one end of the home, giving the homeowner some privacy from the secondary bedrooms. The bedroom itself is well-sized, shown with a queen bed, two nightstands, and a dresser with plenty of space to move around. Two LED lights and a fan brace are standard. A walk-in closet with dual shelf/pole setup provides solid storage out of the box, but the space is easy to customize with more built-ins if needed.

The primary bath is where Tempo’s new Palisade shower option really shines. Standard, Hey Jude comes with a 60-inch fiberglass walk-in shower, dual sinks, and toilet. The model at The Home Boys swaps in Palisade resin panels with a marble-look finish, paired with a glass door and standard fixtures. It’s an inexpensive upgrade that dramatically elevates the look and feel of the bathroom compared to a basic fiberglass surround. Buyers who’ve only seen photos of this option often change their mind once they walk through this physical example, which is why The Home Boys made sure to display it here.

On the opposite side of the home, a central hallway off the dining room leads to the guest bath, three secondary bedrooms, and the flex room. The hall bath includes a fiberglass tub/shower combo, single sink, LED lighting, and the same Tempo finishes, with plenty of room for everyday family use. Each of the three secondary bedrooms is roughly the same size, with its own closet, LED can light, ample receptacles on every wall, and two-inch mini blinds in the display model. For families with multiple kids, the equalized bedroom sizes help cut down the “who got the big room” arguments.

At the end of the wing is the flex room—a second living space that functions as a family room, playroom, media den, or homework zone. It’s fully lit with LED cans, wired and braced for a ceiling fan, and includes a storage closet. This room is also the pivot point for one of Hey Jude’s most important options: the fifth bedroom. With a simple factory modification, a modestly sized fifth bedroom can be added off the flex room without deleting the second living area entirely. That means buyers can choose between a very large flex space with four bedrooms, or a slightly reduced flex room plus five total bedrooms, all at essentially the same base price.

That flexibility, combined with Tempo’s value-driven feature set, is the reason the Hey Jude swept multiple awards in its under-$400,000 segment: Best Kitchen, Innovative Technology Leader, Best Architecture and Design, Best Primary Bedroom Suite, and Best Overall. It’s engineered from the start to be a practical, affordable family home that still feels like a well-thought-out new build—not a stripped-down entry-level box.

For buyers in the Inland Northwest, The Home Boys offers the Clayton Hey Jude from both Spokane Valley and Pasco locations, with delivery and setup included within 100 miles of each lot. The home can be ordered as a four- or five-bedroom, Energy Star / eBuilt configuration, with optional heat pump, Palisade shower, slider door, and other Tempo upgrades tailored to the property and budget. From there, The Home Boys can coordinate foundations, pit sets, skirting, and site work so that the finished result looks and lives like a modern ranch home on a crawlspace.

If you’re looking for a family-ready manufactured home with four or five bedrooms, two living areas, and real Energy Star performance—without losing sight of budget—the Clayton Hey Jude Tempo Series model at The Home Boys is one you need to walk in person. It delivers the space, flexibility, and finish level growing families need, with clear, upfront pricing and a setup package that makes it at home across Washington, Idaho, Oregon, Montana, and beyond.
