We are incredibly grateful to be participating in this year's Parade of Homes.

Our own Mike Hendren recently spoke with Steve Jamrock on the "Word Around Town" podcast to talk about the event. As Mike said, "it is an awesome opportunity to step out of the daily builder bubble, work alongside some of the best local guys in the business, and see everyone’s finished product up close."

In this episode, Mike also gives a sneak peek at our featured home in Stonebridge—a 4,800+ square foot custom ranch. Tune in to hear him discuss:

Why the client-builder connection is so important to us (and why we want to still be friends at the end of the build!)

The custom JR's cabinetry and unique design elements going into this house.

Our 10-foot ceiling lower level, featuring a full golf simulator room.

The hidden structural upgrades we use, like thicker subfloors to knock down sound.

Come out and see us at Stonebridge from September 17th through the 27th!

Thinking about building a custom home in Northwest Indiana? Curious...

You probably don’t think about how much time you spend in your bathroom, but the average is, surprisingly, upwards of two hours a day! Getting ready for the day with hair and makeup in the mirror, decompressing from the day with a relaxing bath, family haircuts, and let’s be honest, usually some storage (or lack thereof). For a room that’s often overused and underutilized, it’s a perfect place to start a home upgrade, renovation or remodel.

Here are our five favorite bathroom remodel ideas:

    1. Radiant heated floors turn cold January mornings in NW Indiana into something you actually want to get out of bed for.
    2. A deep soaking tub gives you a real place to decompress after the kinds of workdays that follow you home.
    3. A curbless walk-in shower looks stunning now and is designed to work beautifully for decades to come.
    4. Upgraded fixtures, built-in cable management, and Bluetooth audio transform a functional room into a space that feels curated & intentional.
    5. A renovated bathroom is one of the highest-returning investments you can make, returning UP TO 70% at resale.

This is the room that gives back every single day. If it’s been on your list, let’s get it done. Call us today or visit online to get started.
