The design aims to help tackle the UK's housing crisis by alleviating production problems.
The two-storey two-bedroom home has been built outside L&G's 550,000 sq ft factory in Selby, near Leeds, which is developing the capacity to produce thousands of homes per year across eight production lines.
Rosie Toogood, Chief Executive Officer of L&G Modular, said: "The unveiling our first prototype today marks an exciting and important step in our programme to bring modular homes constructed from CLT to market. This prototype demonstrates the high quality of our modular solutions debunking preconceptions of modular housing. At full production, homes like this will be delivered repeatedly in a matter of weeks without the snagging issues faced by traditional methods.

"L&G has a long heritage in providing housing in the UK and sees modular construction as a natural evolution and extension of its position in this market. Modular construction is set to revolutionise the house building sector bringing new materials along with methods and processes used in industries, such as car-making to raise productivity and help to address the UK’s chronic shortfall of new homes."
