Spring is finally around the corner, and you know what that means! Our Spring Showcase of Homes!

Our Showcase of Homes will be the weekend of May 4th & 5th at our Wellington on the Lake Community.

We'll be featuring six of our house designs and introducing two new models, The Glenora & The Kensington.

For those of you that know me, you know I grew up in Belleville as a tech geek, and wanted nothing more than to hit the big city and chase my high tech dreams.

As we venture our way into 2012, we're excited as we move forward and bring a few new things to the table for the year. As a custom home builder, we are constantly looking at buying trends of our clients, and what changes to our base home plans seem to be the most popular. From all of this data, we adapt and make changes to our home designs, to help keep the overall costs down for our buyers.

Some prefer after having such a long life of working and rushing through traffic, trying to keep up with the rat race of life, that they steer towards that peaceful country living or at least to retire in a community with less traffic and more time to relax.
