The Dream

After an afternoon bike ride, a conversation over a latte sparked a different approach. Homes built with intention. Processes built on transparency. Quality never negotiable.

Garden Ridge Spec

2013 — The sale of our inaugural Genuine Custom Home, completed even before move-in, marked the beginning of our journey in crafting homes defined by intention and distinction.

Today

After 20+ years in, we've grown through humility, integrity, and transparency—without model homes, sales representatives, or Parade of Homes entries. Our highest honor, our customers' testimonials.

Dream Team

From left to right: Karl, Dennis, and Michael. More than collaborators, we are friends united by a passion for building exceptional custom homes. Guided by honesty, integrity, and a commitment to excellence, we bring each client’s vision to life with care, craftsmanship, and distinction.
