Kirkwood Custom Home Building Experience

At Kirkwood Builders, it is more than just site plans and plywood. Our passion comes from knowing that we carefully planned, managed, and created a place that you can call home. The house is likely the most valuable personal asset that you will own, and we take pride in knowing that we have delivered a superior product that will last for generations. 

There is immense satisfaction that comes from being able to build homes that bring such personal fulfillment to the families that we work with, and we look forward to building dream houses for the many families we have yet to meet.

Award-Winning House Design and Construction

In the 15 years that we have been building in the area, we have won quite a few parade of homes awards.  The ones that we are most proud of are 8 “Best of the Best” Gold awards (Including one in April 2018), and the exclusive “perfect score” award that is reserved for properties that have extreme attention to detail & design.  

This is all good, and certainly a measuring stick for our success, but for us, there is immense satisfaction that comes from being able to build homes that bring such personal fulfillment to the families that we work with, and we look forward to building dream houses for the many families we have yet to meet.

Tailor-Made approach to house construction & development.

Completed Homes

Completed homes are finished, turn-key ready homes for sale that were expertly designed and built by Kirkwood Builders.

Custom-Complete Homes

These are homes that are available during the construction phase, so you will still be able to choose all of the options you would like.  

Design-Build Homes

These would start from a blank slate, and we will help you design/build a house that really fits your lifestyle.  We can build on land that you already have, or help you find land in your desired area.
