Custom homes from $1.2M

Fifteen homes a year. You can visit three of them.

Custom homes and estate builds across the valley, fifteen a year. Ask and we will arrange for you to walk through finished homes and speak to the families living in them, without us in the room.

Services

How we work

Design-build if you want one contract, or as builder alongside your own architect. Both work; they run differently.

Design-build

Architecture, interiors and construction under one roof and one contract. Fewer gaps to fall through, one person accountable.

Builder-of-record

You have an architect you love. We build it, hold the schedule and the budget, and stay out of the design conversation.

Estate & acreage

Site work, wells, septic and long driveways. The invisible half of a rural build, and the half that surprises people.

Renovation of significant homes

Older or architecturally notable properties, where the constraint is respecting what's there.

Homeowners & architects

Architect, valley

"They protected the design when the budget got tight. That's rare."

M. Delacroix
New build

"Weekly walkthrough, weekly numbers. No surprises at the end."

Jen & Ro P.
Estate build

"The site work on acreage was handled better than we'd been warned to expect."

Alan S.
Repeat client

"Second home we've built with them. That should say it."

Process

Eighteen months, mapped

For architects and homeowners both. Nobody should sign for a house without knowing this.

  1. Feasibility & site
  2. Design & budget together
  3. Contract & schedule
  4. Build & weekly rhythm
  1. Feasibility & site

    Before design, we look at the land. Access, soils, utilities and setbacks decide more about cost than the floor plan does.

  2. Design & budget together

    Costing runs alongside design rather than after it, so you never fall in love with something unaffordable.

  3. Contract & schedule

    A fixed schedule with named milestones, and an allowance schedule that says plainly what is and isn't decided.

  4. Build & weekly rhythm

    Site meeting every week, updated numbers every month, and a one-year warranty walkthrough after you've lived in it.

Fifteen this year

Three of these you can visit.

Every house is somebody's, and three owners a year agree to open the door. Ask us which.

Have land, or looking?

The most useful conversation happens before you buy the site. We'll walk a parcel with you and tell you what it will really cost to build on.

Or leave your details and we'll call you back.
